What did Dmc Dmc do right?

So I love all the Devil May Cry games, even if some of them aren't as good as the others. That being said, did yall like anything about Dmc Dmc? When I first played it I thought it was supposed to be a glimpse into an au so Ive always thought about it like that. That being said, I did like Dontes character design. It was new, it was edgy, it was back when I was 12 so it was pretty cool to me. (Played it again years later, while character design did go down a bit for me since I'm not 12 no more, I will say everything held up surprisingly well.)

Combat, the angel and demon weapons make for some fun puzzles and bosses.

Gameplay wise, it's definirly not the worst thing ever. Don't have much to say on this one because it's like the mcdonalds of gameplay ig? You know what you're getting into generally and sometimes it'll be so good you'll think the mcrib is back.

Story so vanilla it called me a freak for suggesting a little twist.

Overall I generally think Dmc Dmc isn't a bad game, it shares a lot of the things people hate about dmc 2 tho.
