Raidou is objectively better because they share the same moveset but he also gets Pierce

Pierce is pretty fucking great

I'm a huge fan of Dante and DMC. I could talk about them for hours.

I enjoyed Dante being in Nocturne in 2003ish (when I played the game) but we really don't need DMC2 Dante in 2020 in Nocturne. Honestly, because of the memes, and the fact that Dante is more recognizable it kind of makes SMT III look a little bad now because it looks like it needs a popular character on the cover for it to be cool.

Dante on the cover of SMT III got me to buy the game when I had no idea what SMT was but the world is different now. It doesn't need that kind of marketing now.

SMT III Nocturne is such a good game that it can stand up with its own characters.

As happy as I was to have Dante in the game in 2003 when I was a kid, SMT III doesn't need Dante anymore. Am I happy he's gone? No. Just indifferent.

It's the *find a reason to cry about it crowd*. The same people complaining about TLOU, Ghost of Tsushima, etc.... They're only hobby is to find something popular and cry about it.

That's because the Raidou version was never released outside of Japan.

Also, it's probably easier for them to use a character that they actually own, as opposed to one they'd have to negotiate for.

We already got Devil May Cry 5, who gives a crap? You want the best Dante ever? Play DMC3 and DMC5.

Nocturne is good enough to stand on its own.

Yea but Dante doesn't even have Pierce

Though I guess he does if you play the hardtype patch

Yeah but that's purely a gameplay reason.

Most people who'd prefer Dante just like his character or look more.

I'm sure anyone with a hacked Switch could do a model swap

They'd have to port over his voice, animations, and speech as well. (Raidou and Dante have radically-different attack animations despite said attacks having the same effects; for one, Raidou summons demons to do some of his attacks.)

Plus, this version is voiced, so unless you get someone to imitate his voice and add those sound files, he's going to be silent during dialogue scenes.
