Did you beat it finally ?

@@Platinum214 yeah I want to know too

Facts you're a god

@@JacksonCollins21 it's been 5 years 100 chance he beat it

Except this is the HD Collection version, so it doesn't really count. It's based on the Japanese version, which is at least three times as easy as the original American release on PS2 :)

HD Collection version is based on Japanese version, which is twice as easy as the original NTSC (American) release. :)

@@VergilHiltsLT I guess this is one of the rare cases where the Japanese version is actually easier than the US. Usually its the opposite

@@rjhick1 Do you have any examples? DMC3's original NA release was also harder (Normal was actually Japanese Hard). I also wonder why they do this. Do they believe American players are more proficient, or is this some form of payback for Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Far-fetched as it may sound, Japanese can be politely racist.

@Reloaded Past Japanese version is the HD version. It's almost twice as easy due to more health spawns, less aggressive enemy AI, and reduced damage done to Dante on all difficulties. Increased damage done to enemies, and enemy DT does 3x more damage in all versions regardless.

@@VergilHiltsLT wasn’t that just for dmc3?

More like "what sort of version is this?" Answer is: HD Collection, based on the Japanese PS2 release, 3 times easier than the NTSC (American) version. Someone even posted a difficulty chart with all the stat differences between versions. BTW, Grenade launcher cancel-spamming is not a new tactic. It's scrubby asf.

@@VergilHiltsLT Dude, you are by far the worst DMC fan I've ever encountered. Holy hell.

HD collection is twice as easy as the original American version. This is the Japanese version.

@@VergilHiltsLT how hard is the japanese version

​@BlacK40k Basically, it was discovered via RAM testing that the North American release of DMC is programmed that Dante takes 20% more damage and deals 20% less damage, and this stacks with the difficulty health and damage changes. Whereas with the Japanese Version, which the HD collection is made from, Dante has no such penalties independent of the difficulty you're on.

Don't feel ashamed brother! I got into the series by the switch and oh man, I was confused on my first playthrough. Only a couple months later, I got all of the blue orbs, full DT and completed DMD. I hope you enjoy it and play it how you like!

Hate to break it to you, but this is the Japanese version. HD collection is based on it, it's 3 times easier than the American PS2 version. Not a joke, there's a difficulty chart posted online with the differences. Perhaps that is why you struggled?

Agreed, mate-i mean, it may not be as evolved as the others, but it's actually the DMC game i respect the most. Fair challenge, nice levels and enemies, the castle and all that make it a real classic.

@@darklordyianni4463 Too bad they fucked up the HD remasters so much..

How are the HD remasters fucked up?

@@evilshinobi7712 bro, there's so many glitches and unpatched parts of the game, it's insane. Currently on my DMD mode, my inventory screen is broken to where I pick my weapons on my gun screen and my guns on my weapon screen. I'll think I've picked grenade gun but in reality ive just picked ifrit and/or vise versa.

@@prod.iinferno What platform are you playing it on? I've been playing it on PC and have had no problems with it so far.

Goodluck!

@@swooshwoosh lol I've done it!!!

@@jeromesears6586 Congrats! I hope to do the same in the future :)

@@swooshwoosh same lol

Good luck of your are still tryin XD

Missing any secret mission requires a restart as there is no way to select levels

That's not Dante, that‘s actually Sparda. When you finished Hard Mode you can unlock the Sparda costume, it changes Dante's appearance and his shadow as well as some of Dante's weapons (the handguns become Luce & Ombra, Alastor becomes Yamato).

​@@d4rksonic474Yamato functions the same as alastor. It doesn't replace it, as you can still get it from the stabbed statue.

DMC1 but with DMC5 combat, you mean?

@@OmegaChase1002 yeah more close quarters and crazy combos still and a little more horror element

If you're on the HD version, you can switch to Japanese or any other language if you want to. When you have a certain knowledge of the game, it lets you control the bosses in a way that helps you, such as letting you kill them faster, instead of the bosses attacking, making it seem that there's a version difference.

You're right, the NTSC PS2 original version is significantly harder across the board than the Japanese version (HD collection). Language settings have nothing to do with it, the difficulty is hard-coded into the game. The damage done to enemies and bosses here is ridiculous. This is easier than American Normal mode.

I love NGB, but man, it's hard. Maybe in another 5 years.

@@bassomegax If I can do Master Ninja of NGB, I could imagine you can pull it off. DMC1 on HD Collection kicked my ass just on normal. I can't fathom DMD after how Griffon 2 and Mundus messed me up.

Easy mode will only let you continue onto another easy mode run. You don't unlock difficulty selection until you beat Hard NG+. You can't even do Hard NG withohut beating Hard NG+ first.

Seriously? I never knew that! So you get a extra full blue orb? I always thought when I 100% everything there's still some health missing.

Sounds like a glitch...

I tried it and it turns out you get an extra health upgrade earlier in the game, you still miss a orb piece if you collected everything, thus nothing changes. Only thing is that you will always see that you are still missing 1 orb piece out of 4 but in fact you already have everything.

Spookey same

9GB of game Ridiculous

@@shibba2517 i know lmao. I only have 2 and 3 installed atm

If you are playing the PS2 USA or PAL versions, Normal and Hard have 125% of the HP of the DMD enemies, which is the same as saying the DMD enemies have 80% of the HP of Normal and Hard. If you're playing PS2 JPN or any of the HD versions, enemies in any difficulty have the same HP, which is the DMD health.

@@bassomegax I'm sorry I'm confused. Are you saying that the USA/PAL versions of DMC 1 were harder on Normal/Hard/DMD than the Japanese version ?

@@dazitmane8905 The USA version is way harder. Dante does less damage, enemies do more damage, a crapton of different stats ultimately resulting in a game twice/thrice as hard. HD versions are all based on the Japanese version, the easiest one. I'm playing the NTSC original on Hard mode, NG right now. S ranking it is VERY fun.

did you manage to beat him?

This does not even make sense

@@eduardodias2073 how does it not make sense in a game where you think people are dead and they turn out to not be. And not to mention its a game, they could make up a million reasons why he could return. So why would it not make sense... because he sacrificed himself????

@@jamarr27 it both does not make sense sparda come back just like does not make sense this VA to dub him... if sparda come back nost of his legend will die, since vergil and dante already surpassed him in brute power but he still lived a lot of time and made a legend where the more you know the more he is epic (And also hooking things that are stated dead on a series makes them like dragon ball nowadays where everyone dies and revives a lot of times)

@@eduardodias2073 1 his legend is already set. What you are really saying is his legend IS already dead because the both passed him. So it wouldn't matter if he came back. And sparda can always get boost in power DMCV is a prime example of that, so them being stronger than him at them moment doesn't mean much

@@jamarr27 if you're REALLY close of DMC like knowing the novels you must know that the "boost" for both dante and vergil were already being planned from DMC2 so its not that simple to "boost" someone just because you think its time... and as said before dante, vergil and nero surpassed him in brute power, however they would not stand a chance against him even together so allow me explain. In DMC4 if my mind dont trick me, dante himself said that Nero surpassed him in power BUT he still bullied him every time they fought because Dante still surpass him in experience (if you think about it it is even reflected in gameplay if you see that both Dante and Vergil have mutilple devil arms,styles and their tricks during battle while Nero is isolated only in four things wich is his sword, gun, devil bringer and his Devil Trigger) so following that line of thinking Sparda lives much more than 2000 years... and like this is not much, we can assume that he had a huge arsenal of skills and abilities like the magic he used on the seven sins making them to lose their name. About his legend it is really huge since it was him and two disciples Baul and Modeus against the ENTIRE hell, he made the tower from DMC3 to separate the human world from the demon one, he created both Yamato, Rebellion and Sparda (sword) and now they are fucking strong in the hands of his sons, he defeated both Argosax and Bolverk TOGETHER and even sealed one of them. What he did is much far of Dante, Vergil or even Nero's range right now, someaday they get compared with Sparda himself they have a lot to do and learn before.

You need to do two things. Air hike will boost the power of the attack. The main thing though, which is the hard part, is the positioning. If you don't hit the right spot, you will not do full damage. If you look at the third hit to Phantom, it does not do the full damage because I did not get into the right position.

@@bassomegax Oh sweet, didn't expect a response actually. Thanks a lot!

That secret mission automatically fails if you damage one of the Kyklops. You need to get them to shoot rocks at each other until one dies.

ahuynh92: Thanks for the info! It's been I while since I played it.

Look up "karterfone", great DMC 1 player, did just that. Spoilers: lots of shooting and slash canceling lol

@@menacedennis3265 XDDD

The twin lances appear in the first room that shows up, and the Nightmare Beta shows up in the second room. Since I avoided the blue room, I got the twin lances to appear. The blue orb fragment appears if you hit a trigger point under the platform. So I purposely missed the platform to hit the point underneath it.

​@@bassomegaxThis run is looks so easy but for me at 14:42 That mother********* son of a ****** is tough on hard mode. Its tough on Normal as well i cant kill this dude without uding yellow orb. You destroyed him in less than a minute😂😂😂

Fusey but this guy has gotten hit multiple times throughout this video and still got S. I think it mostly counts on mission time and red orbs

Circle circle rotate the movement stick

You need to get the positioning just correct. If you don't get the right position, you don't do as much damage.

If you're playing the original PS2 American release, the game is 2-3 times as hard as this version (HD Collection is actually the Japanese version).

@@VergilHiltsLT seriously!? I was playing the former, but then I went to the HD collection, haven't really noticed any difficulty change in the DMD mode.

@@nox_cadit Yes, seriously. Even the damage Dante deals is lower on NTSC version, but it has to be the PS2 original. You die in 2-3 hits at most at maxed out HP. I'd give you the link to the difficulty comparison chart, but KZfaq doesn't accept links. Hard mode is crazy, this is cakewalk compared to that. I'm currently doing Hard NG, S-ranking every mission. REALLY intense.

@@VergilHiltsLT strange, cause I have both, and I die in two hits for Phantom in the HD version, I basically can't be hit more than two times in the fight I'm only missing two of the blue fragments to complete the last blue orb

In some places, you can just press jump and you'll do the long jump. To do it on command, stinger off an edge, and Dante will do the long jump.

Yea, I would say normal and hard are both harder on ps2(usa/pal), but DMD is mostly the same.

@@bassomegax yup

Beg to differ, DMD is NOT the same. I'm about to make a proper difficulty comparison video.

KZfaqr: Long enough. 😃

this song is not capcom's own, it's by a guy called david torn, it appears in several games, it also appears in silent hill origins

Flock off! It makes sense

Krupier X I despise you -_- I got it though! After... several... several attempts :’(

Are you playing the PS2 American version by chance? Because it's 2-3 times as hard as this version (HD version). HD Collection is the Japanese version, easiest one.

Nightmare has a predictable pattern based on where you are located in relation to him.

@@bassomegax Ah. Also how are you doing so much damage to nightmare's final stage. For me I'm doing close to no damage

@@qaycab3722 By the time you get to Nightmare a third time on Dante Must Die, you likely have turned the core red. When it turns red, the core takes 1/2 damage. Once it is red, you can't turn it back. To prevent the core from turning red on DMD requires knowledge of core management, which is something you have to learn. It would take a while for you to learn everything by yourself.

U need to finish the game in normal mode, then in hard, then you will able to play DMD and will unlock the dark knight

If u beat the game in DMD u will unlock the "super dante" mode

@@justgameplaybro4716 Thanks for your reply. I didn’t know you could carry on going. I finished DMD yesterday it was a pain to kill Nightmare took me over 100 try’s, and Mundus 2nd fight was a pain.

@@justgameplaybro4716 When I wrote my message I was about to finish Normal mode. I had some of the trophies from 2014 I couldn’t remember how the game works.

Did you try holding the melee button? If you want to charge Meteor, you need to hold the button. For Sparda's meteors, you just press the firearm button.

Not just the maps, the whole game was supposed to be RE4, but as it kept getting crazier and crazier in its deviation from what Resident Evil was at the time, they decided to make it it's own IP

Looks like you have to start a new game on DMD mode, it can't be a new game plus run.

By beating the game on a difficulty through NG+ I believe

marcos78jz yas ps3

You get a DT refill from killing the Death Scissor. It can take a while after you kill it for the refill to happen though.

@@bassomegax just saw this sorry i never knew that, thanks
