They’ll probably have some costumes for beating the game and other costumes for DLC :shrug:

on the one hand I really really really don't like weapons being locked behind DLC

on the other hand is a wad full of cash to pre-order the deluxe edition

Also, as much as I love Vergil... the fact that they're adding a completely new playable character is actually cooler. We don't know what to expect gameplay-wise or in terms of personality, which is more exciting than another round of I NEED MORE POWER.

V probably has me the most excited about DMC5 yet, to be honest. Introducing Nero in DMC4 was pretty much the right choice for the game and hopefully V adds some fun and interesting new wrinkles to the gameplay as well. In a perfect world Trish and Lady would also be playable but knowing Capcom they'll probably be in a special edition ten years down the line. Or DLC in the less distant future, who knows.

Also I am glad the bad song by the rapist is gone.

Is the Deluxe Edition a whole other, more expensive package or is it something you’re upgraded to just for pre-ordering?

Deluxe Edition a more expensive package, but it's 10 bucks more whereas most dexlue editions are basically 90-100 bucks, so this is slightly better but still obnoxious

the most annoying thing about this Deluxe Edition nonsense is that I'll need to cancel my pre-order that I made before Amazon axed their 20% Prime discount on pre-orders

Given how much they've talked pointedly about chuuni being the DMC original recipe design ethos, and his appearance at the end of Dante's trailer, I kind of expect that V will be smug and slightly pretentious, and possibly either get dunked on constantly by the rest of the cast or dunk on them, depending on how self aware he is

It worked when I pre-ordered the persona 5 deluxe edition, but it's undergone a lot of changes real fast so you may be right

I hope the leak about Alastor being the boss Dante is fighting in the trailer is real because him being voiced by Drew Coombs would be a cool rear end nod.

We now have an official statement on the DMC5 track, btw

It's going out of the game and it's going to stop being used in promotional material from now on and they are looking into new music options

i'm glad they addressed this so quickly though I imagined they were handling it as the dislikes mounted and word of mouth about the singer spread like wildfire. to their credit it sounds like they are erasing it and will likely replace it with a far better song though I'd be fine if they just gave you an option of using one of the classic music tracks.

Eh, I was kinda gonna give Capcom props on a quick response but the official statement isn't very definitive, all they said is that they won't highlight the theme in promotional material AND they're looking into "possible options" according to their resources. So we ain't outta the water yet, folks.

That being said it's probably easier to just go back to Lock N' Load anyway.

I'm no big game dev, but I imagine hiring a new performer to compose a new song and all that takes a bit of time and money so they probably can't immediately promise to get a new song prepared and put in the game by release. That said I doubt they want DMC5 to be the game that has a song by a rapist in it so I assume they're looking into having it replaced.

Considering one of the features of the game is to implement music while performing well it might take some time for the new track to be implemented seamlessly. I’m assuming they are just saying that to cover their butts in the worst case scenario they don’t think they can change it with it being this late into development.

isn't one of the dlc things specific songs from past games? They could just inject one of those in for Dante. I mean they should just take the L here since the song before was already the bottom of the barrel, it can only go up from here.

Worst case scenario they re-record vocals, I'm guessing. It's probably a pain in the rear end to go back and re-do all the implementation taking into account a different track with different instrumentation and vocals and probably even tempo.

The song itself is whatever, all DMC songs are bad so that just solves the scumbag issue and we're good.

Speaking of, does anyone else find Trish to resemble Mia from Resident Evil 7 a bit too much? Not that it's a problem or even distracting, but it makes me wonder if we're going to see recurring faces in RE7 engine games become a thing
