dmc is dumb
It just looks grimmer and grimmer.
DMC released this artwork recently, depicting the new Dante being doted upon by a chorus of half-naked angel girls in shiny, skintight underwear.
What I have to ask is: What the fuck?
There's been absolutely nothing that inspires faith about this remake. The developers stumble through speeches on updating the original Devil May Cry for a new decade of "cool," apparently blithely oblivious to the fact that this is rather like wanting to update Evil Dead for similar reasons. DMC - the original, that is - may have sported then-cool white-haired protagonists and trenchcoats, but it was campy even in its age. I mean, did they just never play to the infamous LIIIIGHT scene? He renames his bar when tears come flying dramatically off his face. It's one of the most sincere-yet-narmalicious things I've ever seen.
But back to this specific image. Devil May Cry has never been fabulous about its women, but the mainstays - Trish and Lady, specifically - were at least endearing and capable enough, however much breast bounce was added as the series progressed. This is the first I've seen of any depiction of women in the new dmc, and the fact that it's squirmy sexy angel chicks just makes me feel angry and dirty.
I think the icing on the cake is the fact that while he looks emo at first, he is actually pointing his fingers in the shape of a gun at one of the angels. I just. What the fuck is this? It's like a more ethereal Duke Nukem poster with a skinny english brat. I wondered this upon the first trailer, but now I have to wonder again: Who the fuck are they marketing to?
