The se version is the best version of dmc5 by far Xbox version especially if you have a 4k 2.1 vrr TV you can play the whole game with Ray tracing no problem. Loading time are way better on se compared to pc even if you have the game in a nvme or ssd se on either console loads up in 4 seconds or less and going from menus is even less pc version never fixed it.
It'd be nice if Capcom didn't alienate half of DMC5's audience and finally brought Special Edition to PC, but whatever. If Capcom don't want my money, so be it. I'm not paying £500 just for this, Rift Apart and mayyyybe Rise of Ronin if that doesn't get a PC release, because the PS5 doesn't offer me anything else in the way of worthwhile exclusives and hardware I can't surpass with my PC.
Crazy cause I was just thinking about buying this, and then this gets uploaded. I've had the standard ver. since launch, and Vergil since he came out. Never saw a reason to upgrade all the way (tho I do regret not getting the Deluxe Edition on launch).
I caved however and just bought the different battle themes this morning. I don't feel like paying around 20 bucks for these little upgrades, and a ray tracing option that I'm probably gonna leave off. I'd rather just pay a total of 5 bucks for the little nick nack shit I've been missing out on. So stupid they charge people for that, but in the end its like fuck it I just want to have fun.
i'm still fairly miffed we never got LDK and turbo mode on PC. RTX is whatever, i can live without it, but you mean to tell me PCs that can already run DMC5 at recommended settings cannot run it with turbo mode?
Why couldn't the villain just remain dead. He wasn't some anti hero or some conflicted being, he was just straight up bad. In this game however they were like "he's good now because SON" lol fuck off. Still upset with how the story goes in DMC5. I'll take 3 and 4 over 5 any day.
I had no idea Virgil's taunt had an attack involved, so when I taunted a Sin Scissor right when it began to show its red head and one-shotted it with a summon sword from the sky, I was like "okay, I'm I playing Vergil, or is he playing me?"
"I bet you've spent money in worst ways" oh absolutely lmao
I bought DMC5SE for PC, recently. I have a good PC with a Ryzen 5 and a 3060. The game looks and feels amazing. And the SE simply makes the package feel completed. Honestly, vanilla DMC5 feels like you bought vanilla DMC3 for yourself. Incomplete gems
I had no idea dante was the final boss!!!!!! I downloaded a save file so had 100% and just never player the last mission for some reason SO HYPED an amazing reason to try dmc again I usually dont replay much
Great video as always liked a lot of the talking points
Have you considered moding the pc port there's a really good all in one mod called SSSiyan's Collaborative Cheat Trainer that adds most se stuff and other option like guard fly toggle and must style mode and some really fun extra options for each character, except v there's not many mods for v.
DMC5 was an okay game, but a bit boring. The level design was getting repetitive, the character-writing is cringey, there's nothing much to do after you beat the main campaign, V is an awful character gameplay-wise, the light platforming sections are GOD AWFUL, you fight against Urizen 4 times, the hardest difficulty is tedious, there are no cool unlocks, there are no bosses you can train against in the Void, you can't play through the entire campaign using different characters, the game has no branching paths and level design is restrictive, etc. The music and the visuals are good, and the combat system is okay.
The problem is that there are action games that just offer more and look better. I can play Bayonetta for the cool unlocks, Ninja Gaiden for different game modes, the newest God of War for beautiful visuals and emotional narrative, dmc for better and deeper platforming sections, etc. All of these games provide great combat systems but also something more than that.
I think the third entry is even better than this. DMC3 has better pacing, better narrative, better weapons, better unlocks, and better music.

Yeah but on the bright side the Series x and s make for amazing emulation machines
1:38 – You mean Strawberry Ice Cream? Gawd, fake DMC fan. :Kappa:
When the world needed him most, he returns….
how is DMC5 your favourite to get ranks in when DMC5's scoring is so busted and punishing? Trying to S rank Mission 10 is infamous for that.

Pretty odd they didn’t bring this to Pc at all. Thanks for the heads up. Always appreciate more detail about DMC5 from ye.
“I’m sure you’ve spent money worst ways” beats every argument I could have against the special edition
Would have liked to have seen TGB talk about the absence of a playable Trish & Lady which we got in DMC4SE but not in this gae for some reason.
Rewarding the act of running away from fights feels like the ol' Resident Evil DNA butting back in.
I think you misspelled DMCV: Vergil Edition.
Honestly I just wanted to play most of the game as any character like say play Nero's levels as Dante or vis-versa or have more skins.
The additional content that is here is seriously good stuff, but just a little bit more of anything really would've been excellent

Strawberry sunday Charlie… Should have say "strawberry sunday"
I know dmc5se came out 5 seconds ago, but a review already? wow
I’ve been replaying this on a new OLED screen and everything just looks fucking beautiful!
I’ve been waiting for this video

Looks at my copy of Callisto Protocol: “why did you have to spell it like that?”

Geez I forgot about subhuman. I literally just used Dantes dmc3 theme from day 1. That song does absolutely nothing for me, so boring and basic
I love how Vergil was basically introduced as a failed shmuck, makes it all the funnier every time he comes back for more from the shmuck table.

I'll give DMC5 a solid 6/10.
No More Heros 3 When?
