When you get older your either going to cringe or enjoy it even more.
Case and point people either think Street Fighter the Movie is Garbage schlock, or the best movie adaptation a video game has ever had.

DMC2 was pretty much The Matrix and Blade. I still enjoyed Dante's personality. He always gave off a more mature feel, but it still has a little bit of cheesy and emotional moments here and there. Not enough to be memorable or enjoyable but after reading through what the developers had to say (in the 3124 art book) about... how they essentially just went with the "we're going to do whatever we want with this game" philosophy, I have a lot of appreciation for them, especially since it's the same people who made DMC3 afterwards (and then had to start work on DMC4 almost immediately.)
DMC3 is definitely the king of cheese and action scenes. It is everything from DMC1 times a million. It has more cheese, it has more action and slowmo, but it also has more serious and more emotional moments. Who here watches the scene after Dante's defeated Vergil and doesn't choke up a little bit? DMC3's plot is easily a work of art. It did everything correctly and it's one of the reasons, I think, so many fans of the series have a deep attachment to the series, because of DMC3's cutscenes/plot, even though just the gameplay and combat alone would have been sufficient, this game goes above and beyond to be memorable, loveable and simply the best 3D brawlers have to offer and nothing will ever come close to being better.
DMC4 decided to throw in fanfic-level ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and thusly killed the franchise for 10 years. It's no wonder a "western" reboot was attempted and quickly forgotten within a year. Not even the "Definitive Edition" could save it and the DMC4 Special Edition only added more issues to an already inherently deeply flawed and incomplete game. That's not to say the game is ♥♥♥♥. It's not. It's just a bad follow up to an amazing game that was left unfinished and will never be fully realized or polished. It's such a shame. Really, it's such a massive disappointment, but I can't blame the developers, again thanks to the 3142 book, as they clearly lament the fact that they had already gone all out with making DMC3, so they were worn out and yet, had to do it all over again... Who knows what would've happened with DMC4 if Capcom had allowed the developers like, at least, a full year before having them make another sequel? Or had them work on DMC4 for another year? DMC2 propelled the team to new heights but I don't think they were allowed enough time to work on it and they were not given enough breathing room right after DMC3 to really take in their own work. I would've loved to see what kind of game DMC4 would've been in different circumstances. It could've easily been infinitely better than DMC3.
Meanwhile DmC as a reboot is utterly useless and the grievous way Tameem Antoniades and Alex Garland treated the fans and how retarded both Capcom and Ninja Theory were in the way they marketed the game. I find it very, very difficult that NT spent a whole year designing the new take on DMC and ended up with... well. You know.
Devil May Cry was always cheesy, what are you talking about? you sound like the edgelords that ruined the franchise with DmC
When did I say it wasn't cheesy? I was pointing out that the humor is bad now as compared to when you experience it when you're younger.
Instead of being the usual original dante look dickstroker you could've read my post better.
He's always been cool in spite of his humour and edge, not because of it.
He's entitled to his opinion and I do tend to share the same opinion.
I play mostly for the gameplay, the story and jokes are completely forgettable.
Another butthurt fanboy that contributes nothing to the discussion.
It would only be cringe if it took itself too seriously, which DMC3 doesn't, at all
Exactly, while DmC...does
When something is over the top there is a sense of purity too it, "just forget the real world and have fun with this larger then life world" there is an enjoyable simplicity to these stories when Good guys can just be Good Guy who Fight Bad Guys who are Just Bad Guy, without needing to thinking about things as if it's the real world. Beacuse you know it isn't supposed to be the real world.
DmC's biggest problem is how seriously it wants you to take it, and when you say okay let's take this seriously The entire story falls apart when you actually start thinking about it.
How does Mundus control the entire world with one soda factory and one TV station. If he has more why does he care so much when Dante beats a boss. If Mundus had the influence that the game wants us to think he had, then he wouldn't care about anything Dante did since it would be small fry stuff for the man who controls the president
They really expect me to believe the king of hell has only one succubus and only one guy who can do the news?
I could go on but I could write an essay on how poorly DmC is written.
In contrast due to knowing what they are the Original games don't actually have that many plot holes, aside from the ones that happened due to development problems. like DMC2 Dante's personalty being off was due from Capcom rushing out the game with new Team and misinterpreted what made people like Dante.
When you look at DMC 1, 3, and 4 At worst there is a retcon or two. but I can't think of a point that really left me wondering why something happened the way it did.
I just spend too much time Thinking about Devil May Cry so I over stepped the knowledge the average player of the series would have, not that average people care about DMC's plot anyway.
