Why not DMC4-Dante?

[bourgeois corpse]

It's still DMC3-Dante...
I want DMC4-Dante.

That one is strange. Clothing wise Frank's DR1 outfit is the most recognizable however the face and voice are that of DR4.

That being said though Frank's face design has never been conistent between games, including crossovers.

Frank's voice actor in MVCI is the same one from DR1-2, not DR4's Frank voice actor, so the voice of Frank is DR1 Frank.

As for face, it looks more like DR1 Frank to me than anything.

But his level 3 hyper sorta screams DR4 Frank though.

At first I thought it was his original actor but then it sounded just off enough to make me doubt it.

The voices for a number of characters just seem so off or are oddly recast like Ashley Birch taking over Chun Li from Laura Bailey.

Blame the Voice Actor Strike going on I guess?

Ashly Burch is part of the SAG-AFTRA voice actor strike so I don't believe it's got anything to do with that. But yeah, as hard as it is to believe, TJ Rotolo is the VA of DR 1-2/MVC I Frank, I think they sound off because of the lines they had to record, so blame the writers.

Because DMC3 he was young in his 20's, in his prime, him and Vergil look the best in that game.

Well, at least it's better than reboot Dante. :D

It ultimately doesn't matter as none of Dante's designs have aged that well. His DMC1-4 designs all look like the most early 2000s type of chatacter you can get while his reboot design looks like a heroine addict.

Now almost 20 years later he doesn't seem like a character design anymore but rather the product of a bygone "Imma Kewl Dood!" era.

^ That's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid, DMC3 Dante looks fantastic even by todays standards, have you seen him in 2011's Marvel vs Capcom 3? Yeah, that wasn't too long, he looks amazing in cel shaded graphics. The only reason he looks like ♥♥♥♥ here is cause this game's graphics are ♥♥♥♥ by 2017 standards, and has zero art direction. He aged just fine, they just haven't executed him properly. Even DMC4 Dante would work if they game had graphics and art direction. Let me guess, MvC3 Vergil and Trish also haven't aged well either? Right? If Ryu can ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ do it for 25 years (generic martial arts I walk the journey "kewl dude ") I'm pretty sure Dante can.
They just totally failed with him in this game, even game play wise.

Why not the Punisher? Why not the Tiffany (Rival Schools)?

Damn Capcom

...Hey, Dante DMC3 still cool

No, it hasn't aged well, just look at this...

If you asked a younger game who has no reverence or memory of the DMC series about this design they'd say he looks like some kinda emo dork who is trying too hard to look cool.

Oddly enough the DmC Dante was criticized for being "emo" at the time but in retrospect the cover art for DMC3 with Dante's hair covering the one side of his of his face and his no shirt leather nipple strap covering holster leather pants tucked into his boots look has way more of an "emo" look by today's standards or someone might say the design is meant to appeal to a female/g@y crowd.

Saying Dante's DMC3 designed has aged well is like saying the most recent Underworld and Resident Evil movies are still hip/trendy when they end up coming off like something made in the early 2000s.

As for Ryu, he has a very simple design. It's by no means a great design but it's a simple design and what people have known for 30 years so it's considered classic kinda like many super hero designs.

The debut trailer from TGS was very dark, dirty, and hard to make anything out in. You could barely see Dante's face in it and no, early on when that first trailer released at TGS nobody was saying he looked like a drug addict. That came later. Everybody was saying he looked emo and like Twilight even though the first image released of the character was a drugged out looking mug shot. Hardly falls in line with the clean cut fashion catalogue looks of the Twilight actors.

It turned out that people are just idiots and only comparing it to Twilight because that was the big pop culture thing everybody was hating on at the time. There wasn't really a famous pop culture reference to compare the new version to so people grasped at straws.

Honestly the DmC Dante looked like a strung out lead singer for an underground 80s New York punk band but since that's not a common frame of reference for people he instead became "Twilight"

And yet DMC3 is always the reference point.

While DMC4 is the best selling in the franchise, Capcom seems to recognize that DMC3 is the fan favorite thus they continue to use stuff from that game.
