While certain parts of this game definitely feel rushed, after 11 playthroughs I can for sure say that this game has some of the best replay value in the genre. While at first certain enemies can feel daunting and unfair, after figuring out how best to use each of the 5 playable characters' movesets, the game becomes not only a fun and balanced action experience, but also a sandbox, where you are free to perform stylish combos no matter how difficult the game gets.

💥 “Stylish action never dies—it evolves.” 💥 🕹️ Hours Played: 400+ | Platform: Steam | Played with controller 🎮 As a long-time Devil May Cry fan, Devil May Cry 4 remains one of the most memorable entries in the franchise. While it doesn’t quite reach the emotional peaks of DMC3 or the polished chaos of DMC5, it delivers an experience that’s both iconic and foundational to the evolution of modern stylish action games. Here's my deep-dive into this demon-slaying masterpiece: ⚔️ Gameplay – 9/10 DMC4 is the perfect showcase of Capcom’s refined combat philosophy: “easy to pick up, impossible to master.” The game introduces Nero, a new protagonist wielding the Devil Bringer, a spectral arm that lets him yank enemies toward him or slam them down with brutal force. It's a mechanic that changed the flow of combat in the series forever. Switching between Nero and Dante later in the game is where the real fun begins. Dante comes with four unique combat styles—Trickster, Swordmaster, Gunslinger, and Royalguard—and the ability to switch between them on the fly. Combine that with a massive arsenal (Rebellion, Gilgamesh, Lucifer, Pandora, etc.) and Dante becomes a walking combat sandbox. The combo potential is endless and rewards creativity and practice with that satisfying SSS Rank: "Smokin' Sexy Style!" 🎮 Controls & Performance – 8.5/10 The game runs beautifully on modern PCs. I’ve had no crashes, input lag, or frame drops. Controller support is flawless, which is crucial for executing frame-perfect combos. However, keep in mind that mouse and keyboard controls are not ideal—this is a game designed with a gamepad in mind. Load times are quick, and you can unlock high framerates and 1080p+ resolutions. Compared to the original console version, this is hands down the definitive way to experience DMC4. 🧠 Story – 7/10 Let’s be honest: DMC games have never been about deep storytelling. But DMC4 offers enough narrative substance to keep things engaging. Nero’s arc as a brash but determined knight of the Order is compelling, and his relationship with Kyrie adds a more emotional touch (even if a bit underdeveloped). Dante is more of a force of nature here—wisecracking, stylish, and seasoned. His presence lights up every scene, even when he’s trolling the villains or delivering poetic one-liners. The dynamic between him and Nero is layered with mentorship, rivalry, and mutual respect—even if they’re bashing each other’s heads in. Yes, the level backtracking in the second half is a flaw, but it’s balanced by how drastically different Dante feels in combat. 🎵 Sound & Music – 9/10 “Shall Never Surrender,” “The Time Has Come,” and “Sworn Through Swords” still slap hard to this day. The soundtrack perfectly captures the adrenaline-fueled combat and gothic tone. The voice acting, especially for Dante and Nero, is top-tier for its time—over-the-top but fitting for the series. 👹 Special Edition Content – 9.5/10 The Steam version is the Special Edition, which adds Vergil, Lady, and Trish as playable characters—each with unique playstyles and full campaigns. Vergil is particularly refined, with mechanics inspired by his DMC3 and DmC reboot versions. Lady and Trish bring fresh gameplay: Lady’s gunplay is long-range and tactical, while Trish mixes up devil arms and lightning-infused combos. These characters alone almost double the replay value. 📌 Pros: ✅ Satisfying, deep, and stylish combat system ✅ Nero’s Devil Bringer is a game-changer ✅ Dante’s style-switching is god-tier ✅ Excellent soundtrack and sound design ✅ Special Edition adds tons of content ✅ Great performance on PC ⚠️ Cons: ❌ Recycled levels in second half of the game ❌ Story pacing is uneven ❌ Keyboard controls are clunky ❌ Kyrie’s characterization is weak 📝 Final Verdict: 9/10 Devil May Cry 4 is a must-play for action game fans and a gem for long-time DMC lovers. The combat is timeless, the characters are unforgettable, and the Special Edition enhances everything with more depth, challenge, and style. It's not perfect, but it's absolutely legendary. 🔥 If you like your games fast, flashy, and full of flair, step into the demon world—you won’t regret it. 🩸 “You're going down... all of you... and then I'm coming back for you, Kyrie.” – Nero

Such nostalgia playing this game. As i said in the HD Collection it's always nice being able to revisit old games. Iconic ost, the game gets a bit repetitive but the combat and the charisma of the characters really compensates it. A must try along with the previous entries.
