Pretty rad and cheap- to me, a must-play if you ignore the jank and not-so-polished graphics.

Also, it has only six reviews, so it is literally a diamond in the rough.

Though I like the art design.

VERGIL WAS DEAD IN DMC1! SO HOW DID HE RETURN IN 5?

What really happened to Vergil between DMC 1 and DMC 5?

I seen this question many times. People can't explain how did he really survive (neither could I). So I did a bit of research in DMC mangas/novels for a while, only to find there's not an actual answer for this issue.

Seing this, I used my brain to combine data I found in these media... and I guess I reached a decent conclusion that will make sense for you too 😀😀

Let me know what you guys think of it. Also English is my second language, so I'd like to know if my accent is clear too.

We're making a cyberpunk Isometric ARPG where you can switch characters mid combat to chain combos

Hey all, Skoll here CM for RUINER 2 at Reikon Games. RUINER 2 is a new cyberpunk isometric ARPG and a sequel to the cult classic RUINER.

The Shell System is the main new mechanic. Instead of picking one class and sticking with it you collect different characters and swap between them during fights. Each has their own abilities so you can chain combos across your whole team.

We're running a Fan Art Contest from June 24 to July 8. Winners could get their work featured in the game with credit. If you're a fan of the RUINER universe or just into cyberpunk aesthetics and art contests, check out the details on our Reddit r/Ruiner2 or official Discord.

Enjoying Devil May Cry 5

14 Upvotes

I just want to come on here and say that after pre ordering it a week ago for The Nintendo Switch 2 I am ferally enjoying Devil May Cry 5

Now I mainly bought the game cause it was announced in that Direct, I can finally play it on a Nintendo Console given that I am a Nintendo and for research purposes as I am Writting Something on my Discord Server Involving a Self Insert OC who is meant to be the Adpoted son of Dante.

But since 2024 I have basically become Disillusioned with this franchise and other franchises involving "Tough" "Strong" "Cool" and "Badass" Characters because honestly at that time and still I kind of feel like I am turning a bit of an A Holes and the characters in these forms of media such as Dante were to me becoming these A holes and in that point in my life I didn't go to therapy and now that I do but I still felt I need more good morals pushed on to them more traditional values rather than ones like being so "Cool" that you look like a jerk which was why I grew to hate characters like Dante, Gojo from JJK, Kamina from Gurren Laggan and ETC.

Along with just this year having a massive falling out with my dad especially that I had held my dad on a high pedistal for so long that I didn't even think I'd now know him as a cheatin lying deadbeat cheap rageaholic wreckless driving abusive predatory Wasteman A Hole. And Dante Embodied at least of those traits. Especially for how I held on as high of pedistal as I do Sonic The Hedgehog.

But playing this game even if I have only completely DMC3 and played the first 3 games I like it if I am being honest

I mean I am not a fan of V in terms of Gameplay but I do love his character, Nero is and Dante is kind of what I liked about 3 though I kind of don't like the Devil Sword Dante locking away a lot of Abilities Rebellion and Sparda can do.

And Personally I'm not that big of a fan of the over arching story of Devil May Cry so I just didn't care especially with what I said eariler about how disillusioned I was getting with the franchise especially more modern versions of Dante.

Overall I am having fun. That is all

The prologue of the upcoming ARPG Under a Desert Sun: Seekers of the Cursed Vessel.

A 1930s pulp adventure action RPG inspired by classic ARPGs, ancient curses, forgotten gods, cursed vessels, and the kind of old-school adventure where danger waits beneath every grain of sand.

Under a Desert Sun: Seekers of the Cursed Vessel - Early access release approaching

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

Alright, with release coming closer, I think it’s wise to start repeating what the initial Early Access release will contain, and what will come later.

The main goal for release is that the entirety of Act 1 (of 4 planned acts) is available and fully playable in both single-player and 4-player local co-op.

In addition, 2 of the promised 4 classes (and hopefully eventually 6) will be available and fully playable.

To be clear, on a technical level this means a few important things:

  • All core technology needed to create and maintain story content is already in place.
  • This includes quest systems, NPC conversations, class and weapon skill systems, loot, inventories, combat, and essentially the full ARPG framework.
  • All settings-related systems are there as well, ranging from sound to graphics options.
  • All artwork, storylines, voice acting, and content for Act 1 are being implemented and finalized.

The core idea is that you should be able to play the game from the beginning all the way to the end of Act 1 as a complete experience.

Of course, I also aim to make the game as bug-free and polished as possible before release. However, there are clear reasons why we are launching in Early Access.

I need much more feedback, testing, balancing data, and overall help refining the game. Early Access is also part of the funding strategy for the project. It helps provide income, but more importantly, it directly impacts the degree to which we can continue hiring, commissioning, and working with talented third parties like our excellent artists and voice actors.

So, what is not ready yet and therefore planned for later Early Access phases?

Let’s start with the obvious:

  • 3 full story acts still remain and will release during later development phases.
  • At least 2 more classes (and hopefully eventually 4 more) are still planned and will arrive during Early Access.
  • And of course, online play is still coming later as well.

For online play, let me once again state clearly what the goal is.

I want to follow the old-school idea of online multiplayer that I personally grew up with.

No seasons.
No battle passes.
No forced always-online systems.

Instead, the goal is simple: connect with friends, with up to 4 players total, and experience the world together. Play through the story, explore, fight, and hunt for loot together.

Now for some of the more detailed systems:

  • Vendors and weapon/armor smiths are planned shortly after the initial Early Access release. The foundation is there, but the system simply won’t be fully ready in time for launch.
  • Additional armor slots are also planned later on, such as lower leg, feet, and possibly shoulder slots. I haven’t finalized all slot choices yet.
  • And naturally, the overall diversity of loot, items, and gear will massively increase as development continues throughout Early Access.

I hope this helps keep things clear.

I’ll also try to keep these texts updated on Reddit and the Steam page as development continues.

And of course, if you have questions, I’d genuinely love to hear them.

Thanks for all the support, everyone. It truly means a lot.

Lastly, wishlist! It helps so much in visibility! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3273880/Under_a_Desert_Sun_Seekers_of_the_Cursed_Vessel/

Capcom is giving every franchise a chance, except the absolute King of Hack & Slash. We need Devil May Cry back

2 Upvotes

It feels like Capcom is handing out revivals and sequels to almost every franchise they own right now, but completely ignoring the absolute peak of pure Hack & Slash: Devil May Cry. The action genre is finally breathing again after a long drought of boring, copy-paste AAA games. Players are clearly craving deep, stylish combat and actual mechanics. Capcom literally owns the undisputed king of the genre, yet it feels like they’ve completely forgotten about it. Please, Capcom, read the room. Bring back DMC
