DMC Questions Anon here!

A game starring Nero while Dante and Vergil are in hell has been announced and Capcom has placed you in charge! What are your plans for the game?

Okay I know I took 84 years to get to this but I forgor

So, If we're making a game without the Shit Twins, then I want the game to have everyone else. Both because everyone else deserves the screen time and to highlight the twin's absence.

Basically, it's the Devil May Cry business still doing it's thing. We got Trish, Lady, and Morrison at the shop. This location will have both main and side quests, both as Nero and as the ladies. Patty of course makes an appearance as well. Maybe she's the center of some quests, maybe she's just hanging out at the shop.

The shop will of course be placed in a map of whatever city it's in, and we can populate it with some characters from the anime. How are Brad and Angelina doing???? Hello???

But I think the main part of the game should be Nero doing his mobile business. I haven't played Assassin's Creed in ages, but I vaguely remember being able to choose missions from a map? So it'd be cool to choose the missions Nero goes on, which he and Nico drive to in their van.

Home base is in Fortuna, naturally. There's some maps that cover both the city and maybe the forest. The main feature is Nero's house. Kyrie is a permanent fixture there for quests (esp silly ones involving the kids) and to help further the story.

So, what is the story?

Well, let's suppose that Vergil's Qliphoth has had some unintended consequences. Maybe a high level demon was able to use the Qliphoth to enter the human world and escaped Urizen's notice. This will be our Big Bad. Maybe Big Bad has beef with Nero specifically because of his lineage. Maybe it's someone who knew Mundus and/or Sparda. Maybe they really fucking hate Vergil and Dante.

Whatever the reason, they're out causing trouble in the human world through a series of seemingly unrelated incidents, and Nero and the DMC gang have to investigate and figure out what's going on. At the end, Nero is able to take down this enemy, proving his strength to all the Nero haters out there. I'm unsure if he should get another power up. I'm leaning towards no, because he only just got his DT, but I'm aware the powerups are part of DMC's appeal.

The theme of the game is 'Nero coming to terms with having a family and having to clean up the messes the dumbasses left behind.' There's a lot of potential for dialogue with Nico and cutscenes with Kyrie to explore Nero and where he is mentally after the events of DMC5. And the fact that he can't even ask the assholes in question makes it all the more interesting, because no one can (or will) give him answers. And I think that would make the eventual reunion of Nero and the twins all the more rewarding, because we'll have been in Nero's shoes.

The Special Edition DLC is the only way Vergil and Dante show up in the game. Aside from flashback cutscenes, maybe.
