There are also some that I find completely useless. Sure, there are some neat tricks that you can do with different Devil Breakers, like the Ragtime, which slows down time, or the Helter Skelter, which serves as a demon meat grinder, but they aren't even permanent, and they can break throughout the course of the game. In Devil May Cry 5, this Devil Bringer has been replaced by a mechanical Devil Breaker, and it is a strict downgrade. In Devil May Cry 4, Nero had a Devil Bringer arm, which was a manifestation of his powers, and, to be honest, a weapon with some amazing features. Nero's Arsenal is Lackluster and His Combat is Shallow Let's just agree (or agree to disagree) that short-haired protagonists do not belong in the series.
Perhaps the goal here is to visually distinguish him from the old Dante, but instead, Nero now just looks like Dante from Ninja Theory's DmC, a style that wasn't even that well accepted upon the release of that game. His new look also isn't doing him any favors, that's for sure. Unfortunately, he has not done that in Devil May Cry 5, and he has actually reverted to something worse. While he did occasionally use profanity to express his distrust in the elders, a common thing for some teenagers no doubt, I really rooted for Nero to grow out of his insecurities and become an adult like Dante. This led to some tragic mood swings, but, ultimately, he grew stronger and became more willing to fight. In that game, Nero was basically forced to take on the role of demon hunter, but he had little experience and was very young. This is markedly different, and worse, than what occurred with Nero in Devil May Cry 4. The lack of character development doesn't make me want to get behind Nero. While he is slightly older and more experienced than he was in Devil May Cry 4, he has shown no improvement, instead spitting curses left and right and being just downright obnoxious. He is now the epitome of pushiness and incivility, and he behaves like a spoiled child. That is not the case with Nero in Devil May Cry 5. It's true that some level of cockiness is certainly required if you're going to be dealing with otherworldly demons, but the writers have always made sure to show restraint and keep Dante as a likable character. Overconfidence has always been an integral part of the characters in the Devil May Cry series, including Dante. Nero Acts Like A Child and Has A Bad Haircut Moving forward, Capcom should refocus its efforts on Dante. His writing is poor, his presentation is obnoxious, and his combat skills are questionable. This was evident leading up to the game's release, through numerous trailers, gameplay videos, and the demo itself, and it is firmly established in the final version of the title. However, Devil May Cry 5 changes all of this Nero's look, character traits, and combat skills have all been downgraded. Additionally, his design and characterization weren't too far off from Dante's, which meant that playing as Nero instead didn't feel like a sacrifice.
