Older Dante

quote
Asked what his goals are for the project, Kobayashi states that he considers Devil My Cry 4 to be an important title because it's been four years since he worked with Dante (on part 1 of the series) and the game has the number "4" in it. He wants to give players the feeling that Dante is making his world debut once again. He also feels that, both in terms of cinema scenes and gameplay, Devil May Cry 3 offered a complete experience, and he hopes to continue along the lines of that game while adding new elements.

This doesn't seem to mean that DMC4 will be just DMC3 with next generation visuals. Kobayashi states that he and his development staff are planning some big changes for the series, although specifics are currently being kept under wraps at Capcom's Osaka development studio.

The Dante shown at TGS is actually not the Dante that we will be seeing in Devil May Cry 4. The TGS character was made as an extension of Devil May Cry 3's young Dante in order to show what the development staff could do with the PS3 hardware. The Dante that we control in Devil May Cry 4 will be different though, following directly from the Dante of the original Devil May Cry. Character designer Tatsuya Yoshikawa is currently designing the character, and a few bits of artwork shown in the magazine suggest an older Dante. Some of the art shows Dante with his hair back, giving the character a more threatening look.

In addition to Dante, we can, continuing with series tradition, expect a female lead. In the interview, Kobayashi asks readers if they'd prefer a previous heroine to return, or a completely new heroine. Jokingly, he adds that a heroine is important in order to show off how cool Dante really is. Other characters from past games may or may not make an appearance -- Kobayashi says that nothing has been decided.

I myself like there thinking on how they want to give the game a feeling of a new debut but I just don't like the way he looks.

Discuss.

So I don't think the one in the Famitsu scan is how he'll eventually end up looking, though we've not really had any more details on the game in quite some time.

re: Older Dante

The way Dante looks in that image Enhance posted looks alright, but is Capcom going to go by that Dante design? Really, I wouldn't mind playing as that Dante. Sure, he doesn't look nearly as bad-ass as he did in Devil May Cry 3, but he looked like more of an old man in Devil May Cry 1 and 2.

*I may be wrong about the old man thing and DMC1&2 as A) It's been 2 years since I played the original and I haven't yet played DMC2*

re: Older Dante

Well, the one in the trailer last year looked nice, despite being just DMC3 Dante in PS3 graphics. Also, I doubt they'll give Dante that design. Come E3, the new trailer will most likely show his final design, among other things.

re: Older Dante

Well, an older Dante means a more powerful Dante. But giving him facial hair doesn't seem like the wisest thing. Just give him a few makeovers and give him some "age."

And how he appears in the scans just look like rough concepts; ideas, mereley. However, since Dante looks as though he will be exploring a frozen fortress, he may need some more heavy duty clothing (ever notice that Dante seems to do the most insane stunts with less clothing on? Weird...)

>_> I sure hope that's not the render for PS3. It looks to baby faced. (its probably not) Dante looks more Feminine

re: Older Dante

OK. I just looked at the scan. I am a little confused--wasn't he supposed to be in a frozen fortress or something? The area in the magazine looks more like Vi de Marli. It better not be, because in my, and everyone elses opinion, DMC2 never happened.

And yes, Dante looks a little girly in that picture.

The first set of screens here are the ones you're thinking of with the castle.

I hope he has the same personality as DMC3.
If it goes back to DMC2 personality I'll be annoyed.

I think differently. If he's older in this game, he should have his dmc2 attitude.

re: Older Dante

How could you even think that? His personality was about as interesting as a brick wall--flat and pointless. He hardly said anything and whenever he did, it was stupid.

He should retain his DMC1 attitude, but with a little more maturity. Just a tad.

Your opinion is quite individual because Dante was nothing but a pile of shit in DMC2.

I think there should be a mix of DMC1 and DMC3 Dante personality-wise. He acted like an immature bad-ass in 3 and a mature bad-ass in 1. By combining their personalities together, it'll outweigh the ugliness of his appearance for this game.

Discuss further.

re: Older Dante

Ugh, he looks like an alcoholic in those scans. They had better change it.

But as for his personality, I think it should just be an evolved version of his DMC1 attitude. He was way too cocky in DMC3 (obviously reflecting his youth). But in this game he's more of an adult; much more matured since then. Sure he should keep his trash talk, but nothing like it was in DMC3. It should just be more of a smart ass attitude, kinda like how he was in DMC1, but like I said, more evolved.

And that imagine is just so... ...ugh.
