Sub Meta Introducing .arc - a digital media archive aimed at preserving the extended media, the history of the series development, and its community.

For Devil May Cry's 25th anniversary, we are happy to announce our next project.

https://arc.cuhrayzee.games/

Check out the thread for more info.

About the project

Over the past couple of years, the team of contributors behind Cuhrayzee started routinely buying, scanning, and dumping various media related to the series, to preserve the story of the series development, and to share it with the community

With the internet shattered even more in recent years, we think that having a centralized place for the community to discover more about the series they love is an important thing, while also giving them options to not be locked behind someone else's interpretation

That's why the materials we provide and preserve have no watermarks of our own or any other restrictions, and we track down and credit the providers for most entries, even when they "donated" the materials to us directly.

We are also not stopping at extended media. Many interviews and materials about the game's development are either lost on the internet due to link rot or deleted because of copyright issues.

For example, Variety deleted its interview about Crimson Cloud for DMC 5's promo tour.

Another thing we want to tackle is translating JP-only materials, like Devil May Cry 4's promo DVDs.

We're working closely with native speakers to transcribe and later translate the materials and present them to the community, both in JP and ENG.

The current iteration of the website is in the "alpha" stage. Over time, we'll iterate on the visuals, tutorials for the mod pages on how to install them, and write guides on buying or preserving the media yourself.

We belive that that knowledge should not be locked in any way.

Follow our pages, subscribe to our YouTube channels, and, most importantly, tell others in the community about us.

We don't ask for donations, nor are we planning to lock stuff behind paywalls.

Happy 25th anniversary - here's to 25 more!

Cuhrayzee is conducting a survey about the Devil May Cry community: players, fans, their needs, and the problems they face.

Link to the survey

We want to make knowledge about Devil May Cry easier to find, easier to trust, and easier to learn from. Whether you want to improve at the games, learn more about the world of these games, or find better places to discuss them.

You might know us from projects like:

  • Devil May Cry's Cut and Early Content video, diving deep into the history and process behind the making of the series
  • .arc project - preservation efforts, aimed at properly digitizing various media related to Devil May Cry series
  • Cuhrayzee's FIGHT CLUB - gameplay event, where people showcase their skill in various Stylish Action Games.
  • If you ever scrolled through Devil May Cry 3142 artbook or similar things - some of these were also preserved by us! Although, a lot of our work is uncredited or reposted without sources :)

Depending on your interests, the form will guide you through questions about Gameplay, Lore, Community, or some combination of them.
Estimated time: about 6–15 minutes, depending on your interests and how much you choose to write.
Responses are anonymous unless you choose to identify yourself elsewhere.

If possible, we prefer responses in English. You are still welcome to answer in your own language, but it may take us more time to review and process your response.

If you have any feedback, please share it with us!

Like they are famous but capcom have been pushing street fighter, resident evil and monster hunter as there main franchises and both DMC and AA haven't have new games for years (like actual new games) so why them? is it because both of there franchises are now 25 years old, is capcom baiting the audiences or........ARE WE ACTUALLY GONNA GET NEW GAMES FOR BOTH OF THESE FRANCHISES?! (says as I get high on hopium)

Questions What do you think Sparda's name was?

25 Upvotes

So in Devil may Cry, the demons Name is litearly sparda, but his family uses it as surname, So do you guys think Sparda also used it as a surname when he was with them, and if so, what name would he have? Cause Sparda Sparda sounds dumb

Bro, Im impressed and that’s something I don’t say often in my live, fr now.

I gifted my friend all the dmc games (besides the reboot) and we played through the entirety of dmc 1, he didn’t really like it because it’s a bit clumsy and we stopped playing at mundus bossfight.

Now after like 2 weeks we start playing dmc 2 together and…….for some damn reason he actually likes it ? So much so that he wanted to play it to the end at his home and he is playing right now with his discord profile saying dmc hd collection ????????????

What the???? HOW ? HOW ????

I mean if it brings him closer to the series I guess but HOW ?

Questions I don't understand what the person who designed the camera angles in the Griffon fight had in mind

7 Upvotes

When Griffon takes flight you have to be at a certain angle to see him, and this makes dodging his moves extremely difficult. The purple elevator takes you to a tiny ass room where Griffon will spam projectiles, you often lose more health than you would gain. The camera also focuses on the tiny room so you can't even see what Griffon is doing. And also when the camera pans to Griffon you can't even see the chain lightning on the ground on higher difficulties.

I met Reuben Langdon (Dante) and Dan Southworth (Vergil) at a convention this past weekend (They were unlisted guests) and had them sign Devil May Cry HD Collection and 5. Reuben also signed Nocturne for me. I met Johnny Yong Bosch years ago for 5 and this completes the Sparda family.

Mine is from 5, to me is a more mature version of her which doesn't left behind her personality and own style, love so much her character, she should be more explored in a future game of the franchise if it ever happens❤️

Dantes dt is uniqely wierd to me

It dosnt look like him and now that he has sdt it dosnt look like that either

So i took the perfect dt concept art and gave it a spin

It bridges hus normal DT and SDT designs

Neros dt idk just looks a little to naked so i went with Vergils dmc 3 dt as inspiration

The coat leading into lower wings mimicing his jacket when the wings a closed

Also with nero i thought of changing his color scheme

His name is litteraly Black so i made his jacket black with purple as an acent although keeping the blue of his phantom arms

The dante SDT one i did in an earlier post

(Regular DTs were drawn during math class then colored later)


r/DevilMayCry • • 1d ago

Game Screenshots if you void slash right as you enter SDT, Vergil gets a dollarstore yamato instead.

I guess Dante wanted his revenge for the Rebellion

Fan Art / Cosplay / Craft I know I haven't been in the community for a while but I decided to show you what I think Lucifer might look like... (Hero Forge model that I created)

I feel like DmC 2 would've expanded upon the angel side of El Donte like how the first game expanded upon Sparda and his demon side... so Lucifer is Dante and Vergil's uncle who basically created the first rebellion back in the ancient times and the reason why his wings are blackened is because his wings were scarred by his brother Michael who burnt them with the Flaming Sword after Lucifer failed to rebel...

Discussion Name your absolute favorite DMC5 male character and… honestly, I can't even choose anymore

Thumbnail

173 Upvotes

To be fair, I’m having a total crisis here:

• On one hand, I’m obsessed with V because of his romantic aesthetic, the tattoos, and the book quotes. Plus, his gameplay is so smooth and easy - sure, it can get a bit repetitive sometimes, but god, the way he executes enemies with his cane is so hot. Those finishers are pure visual candy and peak aesthetic for me.
• On the other hand, I insanely love Dante for his red coat and his iconic pizza obsession. Playing him on keyboard and mouse sounds like an absolute nightmare, though... but honestly, his raw charisma completely makes up for how complex his gameplay is.

I just can't, these two men are way too gorgeous to choose between. Dropping some of my favorite screenshots of V to blessed your feed!

Questions Are you not meant to kill enemies quickly?

36 Upvotes

New player here. I'm playing DMC5 and while surviving isn't really a challenge, I can't seem to get above a D in bloody palace. Apparently it takes the average of your style points, but correct me if I'm wrong. My question is though, in some of the stages you can kill something ridiculously quickly, but obviously your style meter is low because you've only pulled off a few combos. Pretty much all the other games I've played, killing something quickly was the goal, because it meant you were good. Does that not hold here? Should I be drawing out fights to get more style?

Bugs / Tech Support I did a stupid thing with the HD collection

3 Upvotes

I had DMC3 crimson installed on my game and after the patch, I couldn't launch the game. After finding out that i'd put the mod files within the game's folder , i unstalled the game and deleted all the files for a clead redownload thinking i had somehow messed with the game files by doing that. Now i've come to find out that DMC HD collection does not support cloud saves. Any way to back my files up?
