Who knows what Devil May Cry fans want at this point. I get the impression that they hated every game besides DMC 1 and DMC 3.

let's explain:
1) DMC1 was the very first fast paced action game ever created. This game is innovation in its purest form.
2) DMC2 is a mess of a game from gameplay to story to overall design. The only good thing about it is that it had better graphics than the first game.
3) DMC3 made Dante younger and it was the first hack and slash game ever to allow original combos thanks to cancels ala 2D fighting games. This is DMC at its best.
4) DMC4 brought a new protagonist and when you finally got the chance to play as Dante near the end of the game it was just to backtrack through the same stages you have already beaten (sames bosses too!). This game is the very definition of a lazy job but it has the best battle system in the series.
5) DMC reboot, NT ruined everything. The game still has cancels but they are ugly, slow and pointless because you have infinite air-time with the angel weapon and you can string any kind of move-set to one another with no timing or skill required. NT turned the series into a button masher with an angsty protagonist, excessive cursing, tacky sex scenes, pointless platforming and bad frame-rate. If people like this game it's for the wrong reasons. They like it because it's easy and flashy, this game is the Call of Duty of the series.
