Back to present day, I just finished up DMC1. Fun times! Super janky in a lot of spots but it was 2001 so I give it quite a bit a leeway with that. The story.....not much to it actually, I was surprised how little to the story there was. And Vergil got sandbagged super hard! I didn't know he was in the game like that, and Dante kind of just forgets about him after beating him the final time. But the game itself is nifty. Having double jump with Alastor helped me out a TON. I didn't really end up using Ifrit because I was having too much fun with Alastor. And I dunno how common it is to do, but I ended up using the shotgun like 95% of the time. I really enjoyed the shotgun.

Shotgun's a good time but the handguns are really useful for mobility and getting quick hits in to build DT, and the grenade launcher hits like a truck. Did you know/discover about how you can use rolls or jumps to reduce its recovery time?

Also, you didn't even use Ifrit against Frosts?

DMC doesn't have as many weapon options as some of the later games but I really liked how they all had their clear niche.

After playing DMC3 I kinda wish Vergil would have stayed with his total lack of personality as in DMC1. I'll take that over the "too cool for school" shonen anime rival he became..

DMC2's not a very good game though I'm glad you discovered some of the movement tricks. Honestly it's one of the most fun DMC games just to move around in. Too bad it's the worst in most other ways.
