Honestly I see nothing wrong with anything Jason has posted. Nothing he said was really out of turn, everything is valid. I agree however that this is bottom of the barrel. I was really hoping for a Devil May Cry that resembled the first and second (that may be the nostalgia goggles on), but this simply isn't it. There's nothing of substance or challenge in this game that I can see (a prime example being the youtube video Jason posted). I don't even have an issue with aesthetics, the dialogues and game play are terrible enough to make me throw this one out the window.
Also I'm a tad confused on that comment about Anarchy Reigns, are you saying that it needed hype to be good/make others think it's good? Because that's not the case at all. While the story line is whatever, the characters are all interesting and unique to play as (debate-able when it comes to certain aspects of the Rin sisters and Gargoyle/Garuda almost being a re-skin (technically I think Garuda is a modified Gargoyle?). But the online (the main focus/selling point of this game) offers a unique, expansive and challengingly competitive experience. While it's set at a very affordable price I can't see any reason to compare it to this. (again maybe I misread your post, feel free to call me on it. I just woke up.
