Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition

For whatever reason, CAPCOM updated the exe or whatever and now it will literally never launch. The exe or whatever is broken. I literally cannot play this game that I bought. I am not the only one experiencing this issue.

DMC4 é minha vida, meu verdadeiro big crack. Mas, eu recomendo jogarem a Special Edition só se tu for querer platinar o jogo ou jogo com os outros personagens. Se for pra querer jogar pra treinar com o Dante e o Nero, joga a versão vanilla

unfinished and and somewhat broken but still delivers high-octane
fast paced action like no other game. (also prepare for some crashes)

I like it more than 3

This game is stupidly fucking fun, but the very end segment you can see where the devs didnt have time to finish the game properly so its quite rushed. final boss sucks complete ass but everything else is unbelievably fun. the main story characters are both unique to play as, and the extra ones are fun too. You will be backtracking when you switch characters halfway through the campaign, and theres only like 3 or 4 bosses and youll fight them multiple times and its a bit dissappointing but they arent bad fights besides the final boss.

unplayable unless you change a lot of settings of pc to run it at the moment. game crashes seconds after opened in steam, hope for a fix in near future

this game is very good but there is an annoying bug in this game, usually appear in mission 6 and 19, make a fatal error memory overrun pop up then you must close the game, the most weird is there is no problem with my pc and i can play other mission without any problem. and not just me, a bunch of people have it too and capcom didnt fix it, such a dissapointmen, dont buy this game, because you can't play it

Fun combat, decent story

the main downside is that levels/some bosses near the end are pretty heavily reused.

The game itself is fun. Has a few frustrating puzzles but overall a fun experience. I will say that the port needs some fixes you find off the Googles, Youtubes, and Wikis out there for it to run on the last 2 machines I installed it on as it crashed upon launch.

dmc4 is just very good in combat & story was fine.

bloody palace is a massive wake up call to players true skill, especially with the other playable characters as well.

would recommend if you enjoy action beat em up

I've beaten dmc1 and 3, and I still have no idea how to play these games. I fиcking hate games that have ranking systems and shіt, but damn if they don't have most badass plots, stylish designs and the most amazing aesthetics forcing you to keep playing just to see whats gonna happen next. Basically this series together with other 90% of Japanese games ever made are a sweet-suffering gaming equivalent of an actual S&M play. And since minor physical pain makes me cry like a little girl, these are my number one go-to alternative to the actual thing. VERY NICEEE 👍👍👍

Pretty good! It's one of my favorites in the franchise, though I'm biased because I love Nero. Unfortunately, I had to rollback the game to a working version which isn't great but whatever. The game works on PS3& PS4 if your PC just wont load it and you're REALLY that desperate to play it. I would only recommend if you're willing to put in a few extra minutes fixing the game because it crashes on a lot of modern PCs and you are in it for the story/combat. Dante's missions are literally just heading backwards from Nero's so have fun with that lolol. The story is pretty good, I think Kyrie and Nero are so sweet! Nero's combat is fun (I LOVE his sick ass demon arm) and Dante is great as always. playable Lady and Trish is also a nice touch, but i wish they had their own stories. It was disappointing that Vergil, Trish, and Lady were just replacing characters instead of having their own cut-scenes or accounts of the events. :( The most annoying things are the candy land dice games but this game has a place dear in my heart. I would definitely play DMC1/DMC3 to start the series if you're really thinking of getting into the franchise. :)

Nero's combat bgm is really nostalgic for me. Also I enjoy the style ranking system, feels good to get an S rank on a level.

This game is broken for modern PCs. It crashes at start up and the fixes for it ( which are tedious and cumbersome ) do not work. Capcom is garbage don't buy this. I have nothing against the devs but the publishers should be castrated just like all the other AAA companies. This game is being sold as a working product when it is not. Valve should remove this game from the store. Then again, Valve loves selling broken games and never holds the companies accountable in any meaningful way. This game is from 2008 and needs to be updated to work on modern systems. Vote with your wallet folks.

8/10 - VERY GOOD!

Used to play this when I was a teen. Lost count how many times, I've beaten it. This one is a classic. In fact the whole series is a classic. True hack'n'slash action!

Way easier than the others, but it doesn't stop being fun.

From my own gaming experience, a very good hack and slash game. Anyway, there are some missions in the game that are meh. But I recommend it anyway :)
The soundtracks are really good too.
10/10 game

First time going into gameplay, i'd say it's a pretty solid game. Aside from the fact that the "Memory Overrun" error happens everytime I try to play the game. And the game also runs pretty painfully slow despite me having, well decent enough hardware. It should not play like this, how is this even fair?

My dumbass can't even play the game in Devil Hunter mode and can only memorize five or six combos but I love this game so much! It's frustrating enough for newbies, I had a lot of fun. Can't wait to play it again.

The Devil May Cry series is one of my personal favorites, every single game I've played so far has been amazing, 1-4 are all great games and you can definitely see the evolution of the games as they start developing more and more cool features. These games are insanely fun, lots of action and a good story along with tons of different weapons, play styles and characters and will definitely keep you entertained for hours. However one of the things I don't particularly care for specifically in this game, if you choose to play as lady/trish or nero/dante, they made it out to seem like you can choose who you want to play as from the very beginning, unfortunately you can't. depending on who you pick, Nero/Dante or Lady/Trish, you can only play as Nero or lady until mission 12, after that you switch to Dante or Trish. I personally wanted to play only as either Dante or Trish, but you only get 8 out of the 20 total missions to use them and level them up, the only good thing though is whatever upgrades you spend on Nero or Lady get refunded and you can use them on Dante Or Trish. I just personally wish we could play the whole game as whoever we wanted. With all that being said, I definitely recommend this game series to anyone who hasn't played it and is looking for a game series that stays good throughout all the games, or to anyone who just wants a fun game to play. 1-3 require a lot of grinding to get to max level and 4 does not really, I was almost fully upgraded by mission 9, and lastly, yes there are some annoying missions in all these games but thankfully they seem to be few and far apart. I do wish the game was a bit longer though, all characters follow the same paths and do the same mission, and I've only played 6.2 hours so far and I only have 6 missions left, DMC 1-3 took minimum 12 hours each. Highly recommend this game series to anyone!

It's good but everything this game tries DMC V does better. Still fun though.

very nice game. wish there was more wacky pizza man. also Kyrie is annoying.
Besides that I love this game!

its a great game but has a few bugs but otherwise its awesome

Really fun action adventure game. The music and gameplay all rock. Capcom did a great job with this game.

So for me this review is coming fresh off the heels of my first play through on DH mode with Dante and Nero and by the end of the campaign i wanted to gouge my eye out. I love 3 of the 4 other DMC games i have played but this one,... feels off. combos feel limited, stylish system is immensely hard to please with a limited skillset, and i know alot of this comes down to issue of lack of skill but controls feel stiff, the lockon is awful, the camera like most these games is a bastard, repetetive levels, infuriating boss fights, enemies with just the shittiest abilities that manage to drive me mental. It got to the point where i wanted to skip the combat, in a Devil May Cry game!

I gave a quick mission of Vergil and he feels pretty good to play, certainly feels op but i WANT that in a game like DMC. Story was a whole lot of nothing burger but its never been the strength of these games. I wish i loved this entry and honestly like half the gametime i put in it i just wasnt playing the game, i was doing something else more engaging. If i were to rank them from worst to best it would be 2, 4, 1, 3 and 5.

DMC4 is a very weird entry in the DMC Series
on one hand it has the best combat system so far (though hard to grasp at first) and another amazing story
but on the other hand this game is really drawnback by it's level and enemy design, and overall just feeling rushed near the end
i would still highly recommend playing this as you would be missing context for stuff in DMC5

Low effort PC port with impressively terrible default keyboard controls.

• Tutorial displays Xbox's ABXY inputs as if that's not confusing at all for PC players, so they didn't put effort into porting their own keyboard controls into the tutorial UI.
  
  
[*]The mouse isn't functional in moving the camera, nor for binding keys to.

Story is great, combat is fun. Vergil is awesome. However there's only like 4 bosses that are reused throughout the game which is a letdown

possibly better than dmc5

edit: after finishing the game, my opinion is now...
possibly better than dmc5

pretty good but half of the game with dante just the same enemies and some bosses

Was pretty fun to play. dont have many complaints, other than the oft repeated opinion that the second half's enemy layout/design was poorly designed due to the character you control. Like, they were clearly meant for Nero.

The best modding in any DMC game ever. nothing can't out-top kinako mods

this game was an absolute masterpiece and i remember playing this in 2016 on xbox360 but holy hell this was a trip down memory lane

Somewhat good & bad, Tries something new with Nero and succedes, 6/10

Great game, good fun but Capcom and valve are too ignorant to fix it, and players had to find a fix themselves, Would've given it a thumbs up had it not needed 10+ min of your own time hoop jumping to fix their mistake.

This was my first DMC game and I loved the atmosphere! The game is super fun but the combos are hard to hit with keyboard

Despite hating playing half the game as "not Dante", the game absolutely won me over fast

good game tbh played it when i was young im just trying to do all achievements now

the new update literally makes the game close on opening

I do not currently recommend this game for anyone right now. It is fun game but as of late the game crashes on launch. I wish Capcom would look into this.

Gameplay of DMC4 is phenomenal, Character mechanics all feel very unique and fun on all 5 of them. Only issue i have is repetitiveness of levels and lack of inspiration when it comes to enemy/boss designs but that won't really bother you unless you're going for the 100% achievement completion like me. overall i'd highly recommend it to any DMC enjoyer.

The time has come, and so have I

(Nero's theme for non DMC players)

jogo todo bugado

The voices in this game is kinda hard to hear unless you max your volumes or wear headphones. Still recommend it if it's not gonna be a problem for anyone wants this game, but if it is then get the console version of dmc4 since it doesn't have that problem.

Devil May Cry 4—what can I say? It’s a fun game and took a fresh approach with Nero’s unique mechanics, but it faced issues due to corporate interference, from what I’ve gathered. The team was constrained by time and other factors, leading to nearly half the game’s content being cut or left unfinished. As a result, the second half ended up reusing the levels in reverse with some minor additions. It had the potential to be incredible, though it still turned out decent. The main problem is that while the combat system is solid, the enemies and level design primarily cater to Nero, leaving the game feeling less complete than DMC 3 and DMC 5.

Fix the game so I can play it on modern hardware. This can't be that hard to fix Capcom come on.

Ratings: 8 out of 10
[hr][/hr]

the first half of the game which features Nero which has nice level designs and puzzle while the second half felt repetitive, unfinished and a bit unbalanced combined with how hawt dante is in the cutscenes . Even from the story itself, there is a lot of potential to dive deep into on some plot points. And at least the characters are well developed, i guess lol

TL:DR - DMC4 Dante? Would.

i cant play through the game, because in certain black loading screens or cutscenes the game will crash, and will show an error with "memory overrun." looking it up it seems many people have had this issue occur on a lot of different loading scenes. there seems to be no consistent fix. if you get this game pray that your machine can run this sh1t a$$ ps3 port smoothly.

Unfinished piece of ass, dmc1 was more fun than this shit.

Well, I DID love this game when it worked. CAPCOM - fix this, purdy please. Game crashes on start up even after running compatibility mode, turning off overlays in steam, changing hex code, and installing older directx runtimes - still doesn't work. Game loads a black screen then immediately crashes. I smell a refund if there isn't a patch in a year's time to fix this.

But when it works, it's a lot of fun. Just wish it worked like when I first bought it lol.
