This guy fucking sucks and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.
shut up bitchfpbp/thread
>>7395044124 and 5 did not have as good of a story as 3, and he's generally upstaged by Dante and looks inferior even if he gets the last hit on the final boss. He's a fine character, and him being in a game where he didn't constantly scream "KYRIE" did a lot to make him likeable.
I love his voice actor and have heavy bias for all his roles
>>739505117He's always gonna be vash the stampede to me.
>>739504412It could be worse. There's Netflix Dante the jobber who has Nero's voice, and then there's DmC Dante.
>>739504412It could be much worse.
>>739505117I love JYB.And I don't hate Nero at all. I just associate DMC with Dante, and repeated attempts to pull spotlight away from Dante felt strange to me.
i love it when i make a fart in rhythm with the track i listen to
>>739505060He didn't have a deep enough move pool compared to Dante in 4 and the replaceable prosthetic arms in 5 was a shit gimmick, hopefully if he's in 6 they'll just give him 4 unique styles. Personality wise he was an edgy emo in 4 that was borderline unbearable and he's fine in 5.
>>739505513>and repeated attempts to pull spotlight away from Dante felt strange to me.That's because it is.Dante as a character was never fully fleshed out.
I do like that he inherently has a more complex weapon than Dante since Nero doesn't get any other weapons, but also I would like Nero to get more weapons
>>739505404I do like that JYB is aware of and took the rule because he sees Reuben as Dante, it's sort of a sly insult to me that JYB agreed to voice Dante for a non-canon project and a failed, self-fellating revival of the IP>>739505438The fucking back katana kills me
>>739504412Nero was annoying as a character in 4 but super fun, Exceed is an amazing mechanic and the buster animations are super satisfyingIn 5 they fixed his character and added a ton of extra utility to his kit with extra moves and the breakersI like playing 5 Nero better than playing as Dante
Nero was okay, the real problem was this abomination
>>739505746He fully awakened his demon side.He will 100% get devil arms If he's in a sequel.
>>739506023Nigga u gay
>>739505557I don't need him to have 4 styles like Dante, but he should have more moves than he does. 5 giving him moves that he could just lose immediately after using them was a bad fix. He could use another weapon besides Red Queen, and maybe they should have a lot of the Devil Breaker moves back, but he can't break them.
Only Vergil and Dante matter.
>>739504412Quintessential franchise character for secondaries.
>>739506302Dante, Lucia, Trish, Vergil, Nero, Lady, V, Sparda, Eva, Mundus, Argosax, Arkham, Sanctus, Angus, Urizen, Patty, Credo, Nico, infested chopper, and all the other ones I forgot matter
>>739506417>See attractive women>Think of trannyI'm serious anon, get off the internet for a few days
>>739506023The only good part of 5 desu.
>>739507159>/v/ has images of trannies on hand ready to spam in the event of a video game being made
>>739505746>I do like that he inherently has a more complex weapon than Dantehe doesn't though. in dmc4 rebellion and red queen have about the same number of moves, then in 5 with the new summon swords DSD gets dante has more moves with just his base moveset, and then dante also has a lot more moves on E&I then blue rose and trickster/royal guard is more stuff then snatch/robot arms, and the few perks nero gets from DT are less then SDTeven if you just play him as a 1 weapon 1 gun grug dante has more moves, stronger moves, and a way higher cieling, because nero sucks ass and only exists because itsuno felt awkward becoming famous over a character he didn't make
>>739505438It's a shame what they did to Nero
Well, he scored Kyrie.
>>739505438??? What? Viola is cute, likable, fun to play, and literally the only good part of Bayo3
>>739504412Fuck you
>>739507549The funniest subplot in all of DMC is Nico writhing in agony over Kyrie not being into her at all
>>739507336Dante is flat input, Nero is the timing mechanic on top of flat input
>>739504412The only thing I hate about Nero is the timeskip. Like I feel like we should've gotten more games before seeing Vergil or Dantes son. I get why he was created though since Dantes kit got more complex for new players.
>>739508640Never played DMC5, did they really get rid of DMC4's punch mechanics where you could perfectly time your charges and DT distortion timings?
>>739508921Timings changed and some stuff became impossible as a result, mostly glitches or exploits like Real Impact related stuff from DMC4 and other things that don't affect anybody but combo video guys
>>739509252I mean I know there is still a punching weapon. I'm just wondering if it doesn't have a perfect charge release property anymore and if similarly timing your DT transformations doesn't affect the damage of your moves anymore. In my opinion Dante has just as much if not more timing based mechanics than Nero, and I know they made the timing for Royal Guard way easier but I was wondering if they also removed a bunch of other timing based mechanics from his 5 iteration. That's the only way I could see someone could claim he's just "flat input".
>>739508640exceed is fake depth, in dmc4 they nerf nero's damage compared to identical stuff dante can do so exceed can "make up" the difference, then in dmc5 on top of the timing mechanics he already had (punch weapon just frames, royal guard) they gave him summon swords and the little faust drone for two "push a button while you're pushing the sword button for a better combo" mechanics that have actual nuance to how you want to use them unlike the "push the button at this timing or don't" that exceed/knuckle give youdante also has better charge shots then blue rose on shotgun, better brainless cutscene attacks then buster, more movement, he's just a better character and there's a reason why whenever there's a dmc crossover nero is on the bench
>>739504412he was tolerable in 4. he was a lame tutorial character and a Dante 2.0 but looked stylish, likable, really capable, and went from an edgy kid to a decently chill and smart young man. the fact that you must play him for half of the game before getting to play as Dante sucks but what can you doin 5 he's insufferable and I want to punch him in the face every single time he talks. he's not only STILL a poor man's Dante and a shitty tutorial character that you are forced to play for half of the game, but also lost about half of his IQ points, all of his emotional intelligence, and became ugly af. it's clear that Itsuno wanted to make all the 3 fans of the Ninja Theory reboot and Donte happy. and no, giving him all the skills (locked behind the shittiest swapping system on earth that heavily limits his moveset and combo potential, which goes against the entire design philosophy of the fucking genre) that he should've already had in 4 doesn't make up for it. he will NEVER be a Dante replacement no matter how hard Itsuno tries. i'm sick of him trying to shove his shitty ocdonotsteal down my throat. the Netflix cartoon may be garbage but it proved that people see Dante as the protagonist of the franchise. no one want Nero to be the mc. if capcom want him to exist, they should keep him as a side character and nothing else. just one of Dante's allies
>>739508495Only you believe that. Anyone that isn't a retard thinks the opposite.
>>739510368>You are a RETARD HAHAH!Amazing argument. Spoken like a true 10 year old child. You fit the DMC fandom perfectly.
