Oh yeah, it’s time to talk about some character action games, some of the best of the medium, and what better one to start with than the king of them all, Devil May Cry. oder rather, the first one, the weird one where Dante was clearly a Blade oder Neo rip-off and the camera sucked a dick. Regardless, still an incredibly fun game.
Devil May Cry follows Dante as he goes to kill demon king Mundus on a secluded island consisting of marionettes, shadow beasts, Nelo Angelos and also something about him wanting to fuck a look-a-like of his mother. Allegedly wants to fuck his mother, granted. Now, like I mentioned before, the camera does suck, but it tries, and this was once Resident Evil 4. Yes, really. Despite that, the game still manages to do a pretty good job of keeping the action on screen and allowing Du to maneuver around enemies while striking them back. It’s satisfying to Slash at enemies, shoot at them with your guns, and avoid any other attacks from enemies as Du see that combo go from a C to a nice, red hot S rank. Trying to get that S on the oben, nach oben right is like a drug. Gotta get the S. Gotta get the S. It’s no harm if Du don’t, but seeing your score go down cause Du get hit really hurts, and seeing the meter go down cause you’re not hitting enemies makes Du Bewegen around like a mad man. Gotta find Mehr enemies to kill so I can keep that S rank. But on it’s own, slashing enemies is a ton of fun. And the bosses are a load of fun to. Nelo Angelo, my personal Favorit of them. Devil May Cry is a game where I want to do better at it, despite it being the first and the most experimental. But damn, do I want to do better. Sure, it’s okay to go through the level, taking hits and using healing items, but I want to be better, and not use those healing items, not get hit, and master the combos of all my weapons. Speaking of which, the weapons. Du got your usual sword Rebellion and dual wield pistols Ebony and Ivory. Other firearms consisting of the shotgun Coyote and the grenade launcher, which is busted as fuck. And other blades, like the legendary heavy weapon Sparda, the massive axe-scythe thing, Alistair, a better sword than Rebellion. Actually, in another Capcom game, Viewtiful Joe, there was a character named Alistair. I don’t know if that was intentional, but I’d like to believe it was. My Favorit is are the gauntlets, Ifrit, not to be confused with Final Fantasy Ifrit. Doing hard punches and dives towards enemies is just a ton of fun for me.
Devil May Cry, the first one anyway, is not the most refined of the Devil May Cry games. It’s story is nonsensical and stupid, even for Devil May Cry standards, and it’s laughable voice acting. Who could forget “LIIIIIGGGHHHTTT!”? So much fun. But despite that, it’s still a sick, stylish game. It started a pretty cool franchise that, thanks to the announcement of Devil May Cry 5, is still going strong today. Oh, and as for the other games, just wait. We’ll get to them soon. But not Devil May Cry 2… Cause Devil May Cry 2 sucks.
#1: THE RING:
If Du seen the trailer.. Your think it's just stupid movie.. But appearently it's actually a very smart movie.. I never seen it, so not certain.
#2: INSIDIOUS:
Jump scares done "right".
#3: THE GIFT:
I can't explain anything without spoiling it.
But basically Jason Bateman are dealing with an old friend, that's basically the standard creepy neighbour, being way too nice.. But the end Du would not see coming..
#4: PLAY MISTY FOR ME:
A 1971 film where a guy gets stalked Von a emotionally disturbed young woman, who gets way too close than he likes..

Everyday we meet helpful strangers at the grocery store, the gas station, and the bank. Most of them are just employees doing a job with a smile on their face, moving from one customer to the next, but sometimes they can take an unhealthy obsession with our personal lives..

Wow. I mean wow. I thought it wasn't possible for people to get dumber. There's the Condom Challenge, where Du put a condom in your nose and pull it out your mouth and hope Du don't suffocate, then there's the Cinnamon Challenge where Du eat cinammon and try not to choke. But, people could get dumber. Here it is, the feuer challenge, where Du set yourself on feuer for no goddamn reason. What the hell, what is wrong with this world. Are people really this stupid that they actually set themselves on fire. Apperently they do. Its even been shown on the news, for gods sake.
Well, that's all I got. This is a stupid trend that makes me wonder why the help some people have the internet. But, hey' that's only my opinion. What's Your Take
