Devil May Cry Discussion Thread

People are free to prefer one aesthetic over the other, yet I find it annoying -- hmm, let me rephrase this for the laffs -- I find it annoying when some people say that blowing big stuff up is automatically better than anything else. I don't much care if DMC is never T1 or whatever (though I'd prefer for what is there to be read correctly) but let's not pretend that gigakabooms are all that matter, even for just goofy things like powerscaling. There's more to an aesthetic than that. But if gigakabooms are all you're after, then you'd be better off reading Suggsverse or maybe those ludicrous Chinese pulp novels that say stuff like "they threw a kazillion punches in the span of a heartbeat" than pestering DMC threads with bad downplay headcanons.
 
I understand how people see DMC now.
To cleanse your nightmares, I’ll post my blog. I'll upgrade the DMC cosmology page someday.
But I have to downgrade DMC to Low 2-C first, since the demon world is more like an astral plane.

Nice info collection, though I don't see any of that concretely being T1. Metaphysics and subjective reality in fiction can be more "parallel" as opposed to qualitatively superior in all respects like Azathoth's dream and whatnot. Do continue gathering stuff like this, though; I doubt major upgrades are in order but I like seeing motifs gathered and contexutalized like this and it may help pave the way to upgrades if anything more concrete is found.
 
Tony back at it again with them downgrades

Yeah, I will
I'm not familiar with Azathoth. So I guess I have much to learn.
Isn't that the blog that was rejected in the last thread?
Yes. I just reused it. Should I make another one?

That is something like "No. I'm the one who’s gonna kill you" energy.

I need to fix the pages, it will come after cutting some heads
 
Death Battle since 2017, because they said so?
I rewatched the Death Battle and they mentioned that in the DMC5 guide it says Nero couldn't regenerate his arm because "Vergil removed Nero's demonic power." Later they talked about V and said "V would decay without constant use of demonic energy."
 
I think it also comes from Dante and Vergil 2nd fight in DMC3 where both were tired and wounded as Arkham/Jester says, allowing to dunk on them

That honestly feels like it has more to do with Nero and V's situations, no?

I mean, to be fair Nero took a hit when it comes to demonic energy and even Malphas calls him an empty shell/husk because of that regardless of his relationship with Sparda.

But that MF definitely still has regeneration, Urizen gave him a beating the first time and he was like nothing after that (in Visions of V)

In any case, the argument less or more demonic energy = less or more regeneration from Death Battle may make sense since Dante heals faster in Devil Trigger, and Agnus also healed when he absorbed the demonic energy of the demons he summoned.

What they imply though is that Dante will die from Clive once he's out of DT/SDT cause it drains his energy, and thus his regen.
Which I'm pretty sure isn't true, even in gameplay perspective.
 
He constantly fighting Urizen for 24 hours yet still regenerate just fine, despite having so much energy just to break through.
Did he suffer any fatal injuries during this fight? As far as we know, he was just hit and thrown away because Urizen was toying with him.

Urizen wasn't playing with him... at least not at the beginning

Yeah, after the 25 hours of fighting he says and I quote "Why should I... Just to crush a single bug? Now I realize. You are no longer... a threat to me."

But that's after a full day growing fat on power thanks to the Qliphoth pumping his ass full of blood, we have no idea how the fight went down prior to that
 

They remade the blog, they took in consideration just a version of Dante from PoC, used quadruple S, denied demon world being infinite and were adamant stamina affects regen and that regen neg aint a thing
 
were adamant stamina affects regen and that regen neg aint a thing
I think we have wrongly assumed that all the scenes where we see Dante, Vergil and other demons struggling to regenerate are regeneration negation when they are just evidence that their regeneration is just linked to their stamina (especially since it is never explicitly stated that regeneration negation is involved).

Beowulf's eyepatch would like to have a word. Possibly even Bolverk's eyepatch and Mundus's open heart might join in on the convo.
 
It could just be a limit to his regeneration. Demons don't all necessarily have the same regeneration.
So a High Tier Demon who also get turned into a Devil Arm that is known to reconstitute from spiritual matter is also somehow incapable of regening an eye?
But fodder Demons can regen from much worse?

Pure Demons doesn't have a statement of being tired... Weakened, yes. Sparda inflict a wound that even Beowulf couldn't Regen, Bolverk had a scar in the past prior fighting weakened Sparda. Mundus still having so much power to kill Dante in DMC 1, but dude is weakened and his regeneration got slow because Dante using his father power. If it does tied to stamina then Vergil would've been sliced in two at the end of DMC 3.


Sid with Abigail power show that he could regenerate from puddle of blood, yet Dante destroy him completely without him being tired or having stamina issue.

There isn't even any evidence that High Tier Demons can regenerate their injuries when they return from their Devils Arms forms (as far as I know).

What are you referring to?
