Devil May Cry 1 (STEAM) -Part8: Getting SHIELDS & LANCES! And then.. BARBEQUED CHICKEN AT COLOSSEUM!
This is UFONmans full playthrough of the Steam version of Devil May Cry 1 (part of the High Definition Collection) on NORMAL difficulty, since you can't change it! It's my first time fully playing this! So now that I've played Ninja Gaiden trilogy, God of War trilogy AND Metal Gear Rising Revengeance, I think it's time to get into the game series that ORIGINATED it all! I tried playing Devil May Cry 1 in 2023 (over 20 years ago) and I ended up ragequitting it pretty early on. The game felt very clumsy and, frankly, frustratingly hard. Back then I didn't have almost any experience with these types of games, having mostly played RPG's and some fighting games, so I just couldn't get into it. Now that I'm a bit more experienced with this genre, I should be fine... right...? RIGHT?!? Or so I thought... I believe the game is first of this type of action/hack'n'slash genre and the most well known out of all of these, but it was originally supposed to be a Resident Evil -game. So for educational purposes, it is NECESSARY to play this as well! Hopefully the game will be gentle with me and I won't end smashing my controller and ragequitting again!
As usual, I will be checking all the story and lore, trying to find EVERY possible secret I can. So expect lots of snooping and looking around, pretty much how a completionist would play. This will most certainly lengthen the playthrough, so if that isn't your cup of tea, you shouldn't watch these. English commentary and, like all of my playthroughs, there's going to be lots of swearing and cursing... maybe even lewd jokes and raging too! Don't watch if you have a problem with that. If you like the content subscribe, like or comment... or not, it's up to you!
