Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat is not what i expected 

For people who keep asking the same exact question "it's just a mobile game what do you expect?" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9rmnSXzICvM.html - this video will explain everything to what i said from this video. (Also, I take issue with my rating; it should've been 5/10.)

Vergil dropping outta nowhere with beowulf instead of yamato is so fucking funny

The Stinger being a cooldown one button attack lost me 💀

I haven’t been following development very closely, so initially I didn’t really understand why everyone was disappointed with the final version, for a mobile version, I thought it looked great. Then I saw the final minute of the old gameplay. I now understand.

Dear lord that last bit made me so sad this was not the final version. That looked amazing.

Sucks that the finalized version they went with is far different than the old beta version of the game. And the fact it's a mobile gacha, locking 3 different version of Vergil including Dante is a punch in a gut... makes me laugh ironically Really wish the combat system is the old one like in the final part of the video... but nope, even though it's still a dmc game for mobile P.S. the fact that the Rebellion looks more like it in the beta compare of the "victory blade" and you can shoot your guns in the beta... what a waste of cutting it off

Gotta say, this is actually exactly what I expected.

They most likely changed the combat system for monetary reasons rather than "accessibility", they want you to buy higher tier variants of the characters since they have more upgrades/abilities to use for actually good combos. I sort of expected they'd do something like this in the finalized version since it seems like the main goal of modern mobile games nowadays is entirely focused on trying to squeeze wallets rather than player satisfaction, but it's still really disappointing seeing this happen.

7:44 a little replay button for myself. To remember what I've missed and lost, without being able to even experience it.

No cool-ass voice distortion, Nero can't even bringer, Dante is not being cocky or toying around, no weapon switching or guns, Nevan is not being playful and seductive and that end was what I missed? What the hell is this?

Weapon switching is better than character switching.

up until the end i was "aren't you kind of to harsh" then i saw the combos at the end.... *they have to put those angi and rudra combos in dmc 6 NOW I NEED IT!*

Honestly expected more from this since pgr is a game takes inspiration from og dmc and still has the best combat for any mobile games

It’s weird to know that the beta is way better than the final version

Addition: Actually, they lock the "Rebellion" via weapon skin for his "Victory Blade". Same goes for Lady's SMG, Nero's "Red Queen" via skin, and Forced Edge. Which comes to mind, there are DMC1 and DMC2 Dante costume or skins in the previous beta. But for "mobile live service", yeah... who knows where they go now... spend that money and get a terrible gacha rate regardless

No smokin sexy style. No motivation. No guns. *'How boring'* -Vergil

I was able to play the closed beta for a little bit, and really enjoyed it (despite not being able to read shit lol). Weapon switching, sick combos, enemy stepping, even how Dance Macabre changes depending on what weapon Dante is using is a cool concept. I was so excited once DmC:PoC was released globally, only to find this Genshin May Cry: Peak of Disappointment.

Devil may cry : below average combat💀

Dante is in the corner saying mom said it's my turn

To think this game exists to flop months before release is beyond me.

At first I was like it looks good for a dmc mobile game. Good for new players to taste dmc for the first time and maybe transition later. Then I saw the old combat and I was like oh...what happened here. Im guessing they wanted to make it easier for the newer players

man, this is making _me_ cry

I’d argue Dante uses his guns a lot more than his sword, so it’s weird to see him not even have a button for it.

I really thank Nelo, BeeG and Zen for showing an actual close-like DMC actual combat system tribute and showing how an actual DMC game should feel and look.

I'll put this into the "I can't wait for people to get into the files and mod it to be better" catergory, or better yet, put them into the other games. I digress.

no way they called beowulf "devil crusher" i can't 😭

They really think players can bare playing the game by holding the attack button all day

It truly is "Peak Of Combat"

It’s so weird to see Raves pull towards the enemy, but maybe that’s necessary. Really it just feels like they missed the mark just barely. Like there’s accurate recreations of so many attacks and bosses here so someone clearly cared.

Punishing Gray Raven really did put my mobile gaming expectations very high even though this is actually decent gameplay.

Gotta get people to keep voicing their distaste for the gameplay, make sure the message gets across. And let 'em know their choice in va's in conjunction with the reused voice lines are a shit decision they need to address

Wallet May Cry looking mad fun rn

Honestly id still play it. Its better than waiting for a new DMC game for God knows how long.

Dante really got outclassed by bianca stigmata (Also thank god my serum caps at 5000)

BROOOOOOOO 😭😭😭😭 2:46 Vergil's appearance was SO damn random when I was playing I JUST CAN’T 😭😭😭 (And I almost died laughing LMAO 😭)

Vergil's Yamato is locked behind a gacha roll 😭

The live version sure does look disappointing for how long they were developing it versus other action gacha games we can play now, Kuro games leaving them all in the trash. Can't wait for wuthering waves to release.

Vergil in DMC 5 - I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING. Vergil in DMC PoC - i am.................approaching.

Bro... that dodge attack was just APHO Adam's dodge attack~ And they had the audacity to put cooldown on stinger~!

Its a super pedantic thing. But it bugs me that they have dante holster Ebony and Ivory in the wrong spots. He usually has Ebony of the left and Ivory on the right

"I hope u know we got everything, now u broke me and left this peaces. I want u think what could have been"

bro just showed with the ending the name was actually true. but damn they really dropped the ball on that one. i swear thats the revenge for buying DMC5 Vergil for like 2 bucks when on sale.

Damn. The best part of this whole project will probably remain Fire Inside. That song is fire

1:26 he said the thing

I didn't know I could fall asleep watching a DMC boss fight, but I managed...

Seeing what the old poc combat system was like I can understand the disappointment but at the end of the day I’m just hype for a dmc mobile game to be out

The extreme counter is literally the counter from honkai impact's APHO XD

I saw an ad for this early in the morning and thought I was hallucinating... wish that was the case.

THEY TOOK SO MUCH FROM US😭😭😭

I find it so weird how they hired a new VA for Dante in this game, but reuse DMC 5 Dante's grunts and such for fights, when they sound nothing alike lol

Даже у боссов больше мувсета, чем у главных героев на экране)

man i couldn't even start the game properly or even play it when it loaded

Well there goes a perfectly good day ruined by...this... I have no words...

The combat is actually better than many mobile games recently tho. Stylish flashy aerial attack hasn't been that good on mobile since TOF or Hundred Souls

Ok but Air Million Stab is honestly sick af

Don't know why my first thought when seeing the HUD was: "crisis core remake"

wow the old system looked way better im impressed didnt think a moblie game was capable of that that old system should be the standard

worst part: They absolutely could have combined these two factors, and everyone wouldn't care about the gacha as much. they even could have doubled enemy stats across the board, and combined both of your weapon's stats to make your player.

The style meter so wrong in this game. It suppose to be like this, defining the condition of the game: - Disappointing! - Crap! - Bad! - Ass! - Sad! - Shitty Sad! - So Shitty Sad!

the last clip is literally DMC:PoC but the combat is actually peak

NOOOO WHY DID THEY CHANGED ITTT IT LOOKED SO GOOD WHAT WERE THEY EVEN THINKING NOOOOOO

tbh, i’m still getting it as soon as i can, seems like one of the few actually decent mobile games which is insane

bro this is genshin may cry

We will never escape the Grey Bird of Punishment

actually dmc poc v1.0 can still be played as long as you have an account before the 2.0 update because here I can still play old combat v1.0 so you could say there are 2 versions of this game.

Bruh i didnt even know the combat was like this before wtf. Wow we got bamboozled

btw just think if they added the character switch in the dmc 4 or dmc 5 it would be amazing

You can have a tag team with two characters? The series finally caught up with Oneechanbara!

Devil May Cry: Dead On Arrival

After delay, delay and this what we got.....rip

Games like these, makes me appreciate we got powerful handheld PC's nowadays like the Steam Deck or Rog Ally so we wouldn't have to deal with this type of mobile trash.

It’s worth noting that it’s subtitle on the App Store is that it’s “the only licensed DMC game” as if there was no, such thing as one before

Made me realise how good of a fight the original Nevan is, especially with original voice actress for her.

I havent played POC yet since my device isnt compatible with the game (*cries in potato phone), but after seeing your gameplay, my personal opinion about this game: Plus point 1. The switching character feature actually dope, it remind me with Sonic frontiers where we can switch characters 2. THE MID AIR STINGER BUTTON!! OH GOSH!! This is kind of moveset i lowkey want in the og console/pc DMC game Bonus plus point: To be honest, Vergil protecting Dante from phantom are wholesome af, it seem like he realize Dante is the last family he had (beside Nero of course), and he decide to stop fighting him and try his best to become a good brother for him, say what you want, but im tired to see Vergil being depicted as a deadbeat man who dont care about his family and rather see them as an obstacle, while the truth Vergil probably want to change himself after all shenanigans in his life. Negative point 1. I dont like how they decide to remove Dante's iconic guns, like why? Those gun really help me much in combat 2. Dont get me wrong, i love beouwolf, but i personally annoyed with how they choose Beouwolf instead of Yamato as Vergil's basic and unlocked weapon, Yamato has become Vergil's character symbol, yet they choose to replace it, even lock it and turn it into some gacha object (Also, Beouwolf being called as Devil crusher 💀) 3. Pizza? As some energy recharge food? Seriously? 4. I dont think micro transaction and DMC pair would work, idk, but to see DMC became a gacha pay to win game.. it just weird for me. 5. I think this is the main problem of this game beside gacha, the point of the og DMC game is "Challenge" and "Creativity", the og game isnt affraid to torture the newbie player with some challenging challenging gameplay, the style indicator that is hard to be increased and will reset when you got hit by the enemy also told us to be creative and make it look easy when it comes to beat the enemy, this is what make DMC the hack n slash game i love and adore, that was something the old system manage to capture, but no, they instead choose to throw it away and instead did a pay to win move.. if the reason is to attract newbie who know nothing about DMC, arent that will cause shock culture when they found out the og DMC gameplay is actually dificult and hand torturing

I can’t stop hearing Dante say the N word.

Wouldn't be the first time Nebula Joy created a shell of what was beloved.

I FORGIVE YOU FOR EVERYTHING X DIVE

Had a feeling it wasn't going to be that good, and lo' and behold, I tried a demo and felt immensely dissatisfied, especially when I realized it was a full gacha that locked characters, moves and weapons behind it. Forget this, I'll just play Dmc 1, 3, 4 and 5 again.

I think i comment too much... but the more i realize as i keep watching this video and play the game myself, Nero (Free, purple Epic gacha grade) plays almost like the previous beta Dante of old POC combat system but being simplified with his Streak is dodge+attack, and can use his gun... unlike *ahem* Dante. Is it to soften the wound on what they've done or something? Meh... it's kinda not enough, if i'm being brutal about it. The fact that the battles is artificially increased in difficulty, even you got floored when the game said "Highly Difficult for you" and your characters under-levelled just goes to show. Doesn't help that each battles also timed, which is not helping other than add another artificial pressure (is what i feel) when compare to other DMC games. The game is still CBT, isn't it? But at this point, changing things back is not possible i imagine. You are not alone. I swear i'm also not feel motivated when i got to try Vergil (Devil Crusher) for a bit in that one fight against Phantom and realized "he's locked behind the paywall" I should also add some writing like yours in my player info lol "bring back the old combat system." I may edit the pinned comment, quiet the humble honor my comment got pinned by you, sir youtuber. You play really great and your game is stable, along you use the gamepad compare to me when i try play the game and suck at it big time. You should show this video in the game's discord server. What device are you playing it on? Scratch that, i cannot/isn't allowed to edit my comment that got pinned by you.

This feels like "Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening" in an alternate universe where it wasn't a banger, sad to witness.

you know something is wrong when playing vergil doesnt make you feel motivated

Soo has anyone mentioned how sss is just style not super sexy style P.s dante looks at this: what the hell is this

It honkai may cry 3 now

DMC: Piss of Combat: We decided to reduce the combos for more Gachas. PGR: Crimson Wave will have Combo Movesets, with no need of change to other characters to maximize the damage. Oh the only upside on the Piss of Combat is the music. Fire Inside is a banger.

Devil may cry: old combat peaked

I was literally waiting for this game cause of how sick i was of genshin/honkai impact/tower of fantasy combat…. Guess im just waiting for an actual new dmc game then….

The beta had a combat system like dmc5 even a little better now you can't change weapons and theres cooldowns for almost everthing "What the hell is this?"

Let's hope they bring back the old combat

With the combat change, emulated dmc3 will still remain the best dmc game on phone

They knew what they were doing by locking Yamato virgil behind a paywall. I hope this game burns to the ground because they can't be doing DMC like this. •Locking literally combat styles behind a paywall •putting horrible time restrictions on story battles to force you to pony up more money in order to brute force it. (I've tried as a f2p as per usual some enemies will just become too tanks for you to kill even if you are a DMC messiah •the co-op would be funny if it didn't force you to have multiple characters just fully complete. • extreme dodge and lady having an actual air dash were probably the only 2 good things I can say about this game because after that it's just another *milk the IP for money* kind of game imo

I don’t mind, as someone who’s only played dmc3 (only 1-3 was on switch and I thought 3 was the easiest) at least there’s more mid air combat for rebellion than Ariel rave and helm breaker

Damm the old one so good

The HIIIIYAAAHH for stinger changed and it did not need to change…

i mean i guess we can’t really complain, it’s free and it’s a mobile game Edit: i just noticed when you get SSS rank it doesn’t say *Smokin’ Sexy Style!* so we definitely do have something to complain about

Watched this a while ago, but I watch this again discovering that Devil Crusher(Vergil) had an actual air kick combo... Way to dick me out on so many co-ops in which I had to basically watch people fight Nightmare Carus. And ineffectively hitting the Hellfilth's head. And y'know, just wanting an actual combo in *a series notorious for SSStylish combos*

Yo wtf the old system and skills looked so much cooler.

Might as well emulate old dmc games or buy a steam deck if you want dmc mobile gaming experience 😂

Tf is that VA switch, all the other attack VO are from reuben then it switches to whoever is that guy

"Peak of Combat", indeed.

More like “Peak of Imitation”
