Its best fiscal year. It was only on sale for 22 days in fiscal year 2018. It sold more, 3.4M, in its 365 days on sale, from March 8, 2019-March 7, 2020, than fiscal year 2025 (4/1/2025-3/31/2026) .
@VGC_News Best fiscal year, to be technical. It was only on sale for 22 days in fiscal year 2018. It sold more, 3.4M, in its 365 days on sale, from March 8, 2019-March 7, 2020, than FY25 (4/1/2025-3/31/2026) .
@MicolashKyoka Read what he says instead of tripping over one world because of preconceived notions.
The complaint is about wordiness. Manga is a visual medium.
Anyway, there's is nothing inherently better about adult manga. Most manga written for adults are puerile garbage.
@TropicalMaku They didn't say "interested". They said they aim to do exactly that. Key difference.
And they said "new releases, ports, and remakes."
Since then we've seen a new Mega Man reveal, and DMC5 has been rated for Switch 2. So they're already underway.
@putra_rezasyah Different studios with similar names.
Clover was a Capcom subsidiary. Clovers is independent.
Besides, Mikami has his own studio that's already working on a AAA game: https://t.co/3NAaI5DEgD
@redstar_2002@cvxfreak Because there's just that many excellent RE games. Look at his top 6. It's 5 all-time classic REs plus Requiem. It doesn't even include the OG, or 4make.
@DMC_156 People should treat DD2 as if it was "DMC6", since it takes more than 2 years before their next project is announced. DMC5 was 4.5 years into development at E3 2018. DD2 was 3 years 3 months since DMC5, which was because it was the 10th anni & the OG release window was late 2022.
@Bujomi I would imagine the success of the anime and the sales boost, plus every DMC outselling Wilds at the beginning of the fiscal year lit a fire under the director search, if they hadn't found one already. Esp. when they said they want DMC to become a core IP.
Did the DMC fanbase have a collective stroke and forget that the DMC team finished DD2 less than two years ago?
"5 sold 12M, the anime was a hit and demand is high"
Yeah. So?
@Fiend_Risky After RE9, there's little excuse for these games now to have two camera systems. If anything, fixed and free camera for DMC is less hassle than 3P and FP, since the gameplay and controls wouldn't change.
@lofi_lover0930 A number of DMC fans look down on DMC1 and Kamiya and actively downplay their importance. Some go as far to say that Kamiya and 1 didn't "really" create DMC, but that the series started for real with 3.
Never mind that DMC3 was a blatant fan service game to apologize for 2.
