Are you okay with Subhuman being Dante's theme?

[Sixtyfivekills]

Music video was bad. And i mean BAD. So bad that they removed it couple of hours after it went live.

However, trailer version was improved, and instruments were louder, had a better bass in them, and pedoguysinger was lowered a little bit. And judging by the japanese gameplay videos, the game will be using that version indeed. Tolerable, but high pitched yelling is still awful.

I hate the singer for being such a♥♥♥♥♥♥ and even tweeting stuff like ''if people don't dislike it, you're doing something wrong'', and i want him to stay as far away from DMC as possible. Shootie is a better vocalist, and actual fan of the series, so i have no idea what the hell were they thinking when they picked Suicide Silence. Celldweller and Blue Stahli would've been better choices too. Hell, even that guy from youtube that did DMC 5 covers managed to deliver more than SS.


Your thoughts on the song?

[Mayonnaise Eater]

What I heard of it in it's reveal was awful. Vocals overshadowed the instruments WAY too much, and the instruments lacked all kind of oomph. Just a few minutes/hours after the reveal there were fan edits that sounded a million times better than the actual ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ thing.
But gameplay footage with the song and the trailer sound alright actually. I ♥♥♥♥♥ with it.

But as you mentioned. Someone like Celldweller, Blue Stali or Shootie would be a better fit for this.

I'm not. I like Devil Trigger over it.

I don’t care. So long as it does a passable job in gameplay I could care less what songs playing.

Especially with 4 and 3's soundtrack. Wish they where available to everyone though

More power to you, but music can heavily affect the gameplay for me.

For example, if Dead Rising 2 had some generic orchestral themes for psychopaths, they would be most forgettable bosses in history, but music was so over the top and made you feel like a badass.

I know I’m in the minority of this. I was just giving out my thoughts. I do understand that not a lot of people are happy with the song.

It's fine, I made this to see other's thoughts about it after all.

Nope. It sucks. After Devil Trigger and the pure awesomeness that song is, Subhuman sucks big time. Better just put back Devil Never Cry as his theme.

Speaking of that, I wonder if they'll give DLC songs a new mix depending on the ranking or not.

I honestly don't know.

I am completely fine with it. It sounds really great with gameplay, and it actually has a much more DMC 3-ish vibe than 'pull my devil trigger.' Nero can have that, but 'subhuman' sounds so much better with Dante (See gameplay video below).

In general, I always thought of DMC's battle music to have some a strong emphasis in metal, so this makes seems right.

And here is some actual gameplay with the song playing in the background. It works really well:

I doubt that anyone would argue that, it's just that the song is trash, or specifically the vocals. It doesn't sound as bad as part of the gameplay, however dmc 3 ost is far better.

I'm gonna wait a LittleV mod to play the game I think. I like the original Devil Trigger song a lot, but his cover is even better.

Back to the question, I don't think the song is that bad, but I do agree the interpretation and the mixing makes it really hard to listen for me. Prouf is, LittleV's cover made this song good (not amazing, I won't go that far).
Like always, Capcoms has a bad habit of making bad decisions and I think this is one of them.

As I've stated before, it's nowhere near as bad as the music video, but high pitched screaming still bothers me. He just doesn't have a powerful voice like authors I've listed.
