Two people in the world currently.

I prefer Nero with his Devil trigger

[EEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA;3]

Dante because he's way more complex, and stance dancing is like the best thing ever

[Pink Eye]

Dante, duh.

[PieFoot]

Playing as or character wise ?

[PastaRasta]

Nero is just too simple and boring. There isn't much to master with Nero's kit, meanwhile Dante's potential is a lot higher.

[Joo9669]

Nero very nice)))

I preferred Dante overall since Nero felt a tad lacking during my first playthrough. Nero becomes a lot more fun and versatile as a character when You beat the game and unlock his Devil Trigger . Before that I would rate the characters Dante > V > Nero in terms of strength and how fun they were to play. Now I would say that Nero feels stronger and more fun than V even if V is the easiest to SSS things with and you can just play him with your eyes closed.

Only played through Devil Hunter now and currently in Son of Sparda difficulty I still feel that V is the easiest, Dante the most versatile and fun and Nero feels like the middle ground which I prefer over V's mobile and simple playstyle.

Nero is certainly the easiest when you want to be flashy. You gotta work your ass off to be extremely flashy with Dante.

I find Nero to be more fun to play. The grappling hook he got is better than anything Dante got.
Then we have the mechanic of activating his his sword at the right time so you get a fire charge or 3 of them if you upgraded to max and hit the right time.
It feels good when you keep hitting Left trigger at the right time every hit on certain moves.

While Dante has 4 styles I only ever used Sword master. Even then I rarely used the special button for it because it makes a move that isn't all that powerful on most weapons.

So it all just ends up me mashing the main attack button and evading when I need too. Also firing the shotgun every now and then.

lmao nah...I feel the exact opposite. I just end up spamming the same few moves with Nero versus Dante where I craft beautiful scenes of death. Nero could use some variety in the future and no the devil breakers don't count cause that **** just ends up breaking. Time to get Nero some new weapons and dare I say some stances if he wants to compete with the top dogs.

Ah I feel like you are missing out a bit since Dante's other stances are really good for example: The trickster allows you to literally teleport next to your enemies from range which really feels quite broken at times when you can keep teleporting around.

I almost feel like they made Dante a little too good for this game because it is his send-off from the franchise. Also he has 4 different melee weapons and 4 guns to complement the 4 styles he has and each gun/melee weapon have their unique interactions with their respective styles that you can chain with other moves.

DMC is all about Style after all.
