So i enjoy fast and hard games like shmups, bayonetta, and god hand, so I decided to try devil may cry and I'm not enjoying it. Now I love the edgy cutscenes and music, but the game play really rubs me the wrong way. I've gotten past the phantom spider fight and the controls just aren't clicking with me.
In bayonetta or god hand many attacks and moves only need one input, like dodges need one input, attacks need at most two inputs, a direction and a button.This makes me feel totally incontrol over my character as I can pull off any move to combat any situation any time. But in devil may cry rolling takes r1, triangle and a direction, so you can't do it as quickly, and also works poorly with shifting camera angles so I end up jumping like a retard or not being able to dodge in time. Additionally in those games you start with all the moves to break guards you just gain more powerful moves or weapons to add variety and options in combat. Then I tried easy and it just made the game boring, and removed the challenge and didn't fix rolling.
So are there any tips to have a better experience, or does 3 or 4 get the controls better?
Just can't get into Devil May Cry
3 basically gets everything in DMC better.
It was originally a RE game and it's rather old so the controls are simple. It's just that you suck and you are probably yiunger than 20.
The control scheme is refined later, but they kept the single attack button and let you rely on your own timing and ingenuity to come up with complex combos, it doesn't get dumbed down to alternating light attacks and heavy attacks until Bayonetta.
Cool, I wasn't sure if it was a big improvement or just a good follow up
What is the best version to get? I've heard iffy things about the pc version have they been fixed?
I heard it was originally resident evil 4 and at first I just thought of the puzzles and camera but now thinking about the controls it makes alot of sense
And you are right about me being younger than 20, and although I'm not great at games I'm a hell of a lot better than most people I know
That's cool, I like the idea of really long custom combos over pre set ones, that's one of the reasons I like god hand so much
Please go back to school kiddo
Sorry I didn't proofread, I'm just typing this shit quickly on my phone.
It's really not the grammar that concerns me
Pressing three buttons should not be a monumental task, all you've said just reads that you're incapable of adapting to anything outside your comfort zone. This isn't even a case of 'get good' you just sound outright like an autistic child.
This is true, in hindsight it is a bit of an autistic complaint, but it just over complicates something that shouldn't be all that complicated.
Treat DMC1 more like RE with better combat, it's a bit unusual at first but once you get used to it the controls are fine.
