ахахахах настолько поебать на двойку что за чит-коды не блочат ачивки

What if I download a save file that has the same cheat content for DMC3 since saving/loading is disabled when entered?

Your tears fill my cup to the brim. If this is your Joker arc, you're doing it wrong.

[Aureate Eternal]

PS2 games (and early 2000s games in general) had a certain special feeling about em that I just love, and even for as crappy a game as DMC2 is, it still has that PS2 feel that is instantly recognizable and super nostalgic.

[Aureate Eternal]

Yeah... I actually enjoy it in a really weird way, but going for S Ranks or multiple playthroughs in a short timespan is just masochism.

[Annie T. Mood]

Understandable, it's DMC 2.

[Aureate Eternal]

tfw you remember you still haven't unlocked either of the Must Die modes to test it...

[Aureate Eternal]

It's either that or there's a cheat I'm missing.

[Aureate Eternal]

I know for a fact Level Select and Trish cheats work outside without the PAL version. I have to double check the DT cheat but I think that's the PAL only one.

I'll test it and update the guide if it's true.

Important note for DMC2:
One if not all cheats only work on the PAL version of the game, meaning you have to set the game to one of the European languages or in Chinese, which you do in-game where you select a DMC game.
