Saving A Franchise In Style - The Devil May Cry 3 Retrospective (Ft. Rakuyo)

Well, that took a while! We're finally back (8 months after the last part) with a new Devil May Cry video! This time we're past the slop fest of DMC2 and covering one of the most important action video games in history, the game that took the Hack N Slash action adventure gameplay that the first one created, and absolutely revolutionized it.

I don't wanna write too much here as I have a lot of writing to do for this description and I don't wanna hit the character limit BUUUT this game is legendary on so many levels and features some of the most deep gameplay mechanics that are still being innovated on even today 18 years later, and gives us the origin story of Dante in an awesome way that builds into the first game. I love DMC3 and so does the entire community, let us find out just why!

And as always, thanks to Rakuyo for joining me on this video, make sure to subscribe to him if you wanna see occasional fighting game content (Tekken, SF6, maybe Guilty Gear Strive):
