Absolutely. The way everything unfolds in the reboot is a lot of fun to see, and it's definitely the one that I've played the most behind 3 and maybe 4 (although 4 has its own list of issues).
Graeme Hobbs
The DmC reboot has some of the worst written dialogue of any game made in the past 20 years, as well as being horribly misogynistic. And you could fill a book with all the mistakes they made with the gameplay systems that the definitive edition had to try and fix.
Dan Schwartz
Per the discussion of the dawn of the dead-rising divide and where to ironically hide from consumerism allegories/zombies. Amazon warehouse.
Dr. Judge, Private Eye
TRUTH! Still the best written one, if you actually care about things like "plot" and "characters with personality and arcs." And one of the best playing, right behind 3 (and maybe 5 for sheer variety).
Nora
I just want to throw my voice out there in support of the DmC reboot. I love the series overall as well, but that reboot rules.
