Despite now being seven years old, Devil May Cry 5 just had its best year of sales yet

Resident Evil and Street Fighter games also saw large year-on-year increases…
Video game adaptations are effective marketing. I'll say from experience, the Fallout show was the most effective commercial I'd ever seen. They probably hoped it would lead me to playing Fallout 76 like it did for so many other folks, but I played Fallout 2 instead.
You made the correct choice.
It was the only mainline game I hadn't played at the time. I still haven't played Tactics, Shelter, or 76 and don't really intend to.
Shelter was pretty fun, played it for a few months when it came out. Obviously if you're not a fan of the genre already it probably doesn't offer much for you.
I enjoyed Tactics, but that was also when it was relatively new. It may be worth checking out still if you like squad-based strategy games.
I absolutely HATED playing as V but despite that 5 was still my favorite in the series after 3.
I also purchased the game a few weeks ago (May 19) on a very good deal on Steam: Devil May Cry 5 + Vergil - 4,49€ How can you not say yes to this? I just looked it up on my Recent Purchase history: https://store.steampowered.com/account/history
Hehe, I remember getting it as a bonus with my 5700XT lol
Love the DMC games and in glad they're getting more love. I think Dante's Royal Guard is the best "parry" mechanic in all of gaming and I think parries should head in this direction
I bought it a few weeks ago for 20 bucks
Also featuring V from the hit Ninja Theory game DMC
