Capcom Ruins Everything - Page 6

I didn't know about that. I wonder if they either...

1. bought the rights to the character.
or
2. the creator of the series (sorry can't remember his name at the moment it's been awhile) ok'd it.

I could be wrong on this one. Either way, it's Capcom's attempt to shut the angry sonic fa- I mean DMC fanboys up.

Sorry it's just that after peeking into Gamefaqs for a bit, its hard to tell the 2 apart anymore.

I doubt the creator owns the likeness. That's not how property rights for these things work. At all. Same for the series. Sounds like a bunch of fartz, Kyanbu.

What I would actually wager is that Capcom is involving western development studios to make games that appeal to western audiences more, because game development is getting fucks expensive and selling well in Japan simply isn't enough to recoup the costs and make a significant profit anymore on AAA titles. Capcom has actually trying to westernize their other games a lot as well.

That's all they did with DmC. They handed it to a western studio to westernize it so it would sell well and they could rake in cash moneys.

Ah I see, my mistake then.

So, hey, some interesting stuff in there!

Arcanum · 01-24-2013, 02:52 AM

So they couldn't release it as standalone content like Infamous 2's Blood Festival or RDR's Undead Nightmare, and just throw in the save import feature? Just sounds like they're trying to put out some fires because if they really wanted to release the content on its own they could have found a way.

In completely unrelated news: Yo dawg I heard you like prequels so we made a prequel to your prequel.

Dante`s hair turns white at the end of the new DMC? I thought it only turned white during the devil trigger (when he also gets the "blood coat" ) ...

Also, is the sequel to that game being called DMC 2: Run DMC?

Cause it`s just as stupid as the current "Devil May Cry: Devil May Cry"

PS: Also... wait for classic Dante to be a DLC Skin on this game....... just wait...

DmC isn't a prequel, it's a reboot.

I don't understand how Capcom could claim that Dragon's Dogma wasn't designed to allow for DLC when there's already been DLC released for Dragon's Dogma.

I would be... remiss if I didn't explain that there is a difference between the DLC available and the addition of new maps and creatures. It could be that the team felt that releasing a console patch with so much heft onto the original game could cause instability and bugs. It's not something entirely new to my eyes- I did see it while working.

I'm not saying this is an actual thing with this title, but there has been previous issues.

Edit: Also, I may be misremembering, but I believe there is a rule capping 'game data' files (i.e. your updates and patches in size) on the PS3 to a specific size. I think it was 2gb? That's like 3 years ago now so it might not be a thing anymore.
