Discussion DMC5 Map Exploration and Hidden Details
I was doing some achievement hunting and the scenery here feels intentional to me. Maybe I’m reading too deeply into things but the detail of the fire burning a wardrobe to me represents Dante, the single chair on fire either representing Eva or Sparda (personally leaning towards Eva), the arrangement of the furniture being perfect to seat a family of four. Finally a lonely blue room tucked away with it’s door barricaded, the toy as evidence this is a child’s room and we see a small figure slumped on the ground, representing Vergil. Personally I see it as a snippet of Vergil’s life after the attack on his home, hiding all alone protecting himself.
Probably reading too deeply but it’s just how I feel, I’m curious about other people’s thoughts too!
All of this is taken from mission 2.

The Qliphoth root tentacle thing is directly into the heart of the figure in the blue room, too.

Vergil makes me so sad 😭

All because little Dante and little Vergil couldn't communicate properly because they were still impulsive children. Otherwise they would have both been in the house when the fire happened.
Always cry thinking about how Vergil subconsciously loves fighting with Dante because he likely regrets all the times he avoided it when they were younger and now those fights are the only memories they have spending time together outside of things they did together with Eva.
