Absolutely. The way everything unfolds in the reboot is a lot of fun to see, and it's definitely the one that I've played the most behind 3 and maybe 4 (although 4 has its own list of issues).

2022-08-22 11:34:06 +0000 UTCThe DmC reboot has some of the worst written dialogue of any game made in the past 20 years, as well as being horribly misogynistic. And you could fill a book with all the mistakes they made with the gameplay systems that the definitive edition had to try and fix.

2022-08-22 04:28:57 +0000 UTCPer the discussion of the dawn of the dead-rising divide and where to ironically hide from consumerism allegories/zombies. Amazon warehouse.

2022-08-19 09:32:35 +0000 UTCTRUTH! Still the best written one, if you actually care about things like "plot" and "characters with personality and arcs." And one of the best playing, right behind 3 (and maybe 5 for sheer variety).

2022-08-18 16:42:19 +0000 UTCI just want to throw my voice out there in support of the DmC reboot. I love the series overall as well, but that reboot rules.
