Fun Fact, if you killed 100 enemies in the credit scene, you'll get to see an extended cutscene where Vergil tries and fails to defeat Mundus and thus the reason why he was possessed in the first DMC. Tragic but otherwise ties in the first game completely/
Oh so if DMC2 was out before 3 came out and you said this sentence, I have to believe your opinion? Fuck no. SW can be saved and it’s not Disney’s fault.
@@thebedlamking4688 Glad to hear lol. I've never played the games before, but with 5 newly released and now that I've had a few friends recommend it, I'm looking to try it out. Thanks!
I always wondered after that scene when the heck would they say that, can't think of a situation where that would be natural ya know? Still fucking awesome tho
I'm noticing a trend here. After DMC2 and DmC, Itsuno was just like, "Oh no, the game was sub-par, let's make an absolute masterpiece!" And everything was good.
@@Brandon-du7ox it shows with how much of its style leaked to dmc 5. A real pity, gone are gothic castles and orchestral music, now we explore city and listen to much more generic music.
I still think the end of DMC3 says a lot about Vergil, instead of using Yamato in his final attack he clings to Force Edge and his Amulet. Despite being willing to throw away anything that holds him back he still held on to his mother and father, until the very end.
@@jonasjojofalco9896 I'd argue otherwise. While Yamato was a sword that was given to Vergil by his father, Force Edge was the sword that Sparda most regularly used, and is therefore more symbolic of him. Just some speculation, but I like to imagine that Yamato and Rebellion are just Devil Arms that Sparda acquired from fighting Mundus's army just like Dante and Vergil get their Devil Arms.
@@aliasanonymous5387 I see it similarly, Rebellion and Yamato are the bikes the father gave his kids but Force Edge, which still could have used a better name but whatever, is basically the father's car in that analogy.
I love how Arkham patheticly screams "NO!-" before lady puts him down Really shows who he is. A Selfish Coward and it feels real Props to the aninators and voice actor
It helps too that lady shot Arkham with three perfect headshots the skull and transitioning between the different environments and Angles is admittedly really satisfying and painful
Arkham is a snake through and through. The way he tried to manipulate his own daughter, TWICE, is indeed pathetic. The way he is on the ground after being kicked out of hell by Dante & Vergil, trying with his last remaining strength to still manipulate Lady, shows his selfishness and cowardice. Vergil to be honest, in DMC3 is not a coward, but also very selfish. Willing to sacrifice/kill even his own brother, just to gain more power. Arkham actually did the same. He killed his own Wife, just to unleash demonic power.
Fun fact in the Arkham fight when Virgil helps you if you have a second controller plugged in a player two can play as Vergil with his full moveset. This also works with doppelganger
One correction here. Arkum didn't choose to turn into a blob. He turned into that because he couldn't control the power of Sparda. Vergil even said so in the cut scene you showed.
Super late but not true. If you look into the files it’s not that he couldn’t handle it but rather that the power revealed his true nature. Which would never be Sparda
@@SamsarasArt wait my bad I read that wrong I thought u said ninja Gaiden yes I can see dmc3 being harder than dark souls see the key to games like dark souls,Nioh,sekiro is it's all about getting stronger if you are a high level and stronger the games get easier it's based on your strength where as DMC&ninja Gaiden even at Max you still gotta have the skills
after playing the game with the style switcher mod, im completly unable to play it again with only 1 style and 4 weapons again, being able to switch between everything mid-fight is just sooo much fun!
Vergil is the reason I love Weiss Schnee and Goro Akechi. Something about overly edgy but proper characters who make a perfect foil to the protag I love. They just make the main character look like a complete idiot at times
It's a costume that's unlocked after the first playthrough actually. Just like shirtless.. uh.. coatless Dante. I guess back in the day since the individual models weren't all that detailed it was easier to just put something like this in. Too bad in DMC5 adding skins for Dante that resemble his looks from 1 to 4 would probably be too much effort.. hope they do it anyways
Still seems like it was only the other day when I started getting into the series. Easily my favorite video game series of all time. Period. Hope you become a true fanatic like myself lol
Devil may cry 1: S Devil may cry 2: D Devil may cry 3: SS Devil may cry 4: A Devil may cry 5: SSS What do the good games have in common? Answer: Vergil being there
@Omega Zero DMC1 is such a classic it should be an S, and DMC4 should also be an S for its super fun combat. I guess 87/100 for DMC1 while 90/100 for DMC4
I think my favorite moment in this game is after the last Vergil fight, when you finally deplete his health bar, Vergil says, "Dante" in a repeating reverb. For some reason, I just find that so cool. I remember when I first beat it, in my college dorm room, and that happened. I'll never forget it.
@@supersayan1962 I'm pretty sure there's a place between "The Protagonist" and "Almost entirely inconsequential to the plot" but I could be wrong about that...
Note: PC version can be modded to allow for full weapon switch and style switching like in the newer games. Makes the game a bit easier but much more fun and stylish
"My favorite loadout is Trickster, Rebellion and Beowulf on melee, with Ebony and Ivory and Kalina Ann on my ranged attacks." I see you are a woman of culture as well. (No seriously, that was my EXACT loadout.)
A small note about Arkham's character. It's not really explained very well in game, but the ritual he conducted in which he sacrificed Lady's mother didn't grant him the demonic power he wanted... but it did give him demonic power. That's where Jester comes from. A small note, but in hindsight, Lady explaining how Arkham killed her mother provides very subtle foreshadowing with the Arkham/Jester reveal, which in itself is really neat imo.
It's funny how DMC3 and V were similar in the fact that the previous game left a bitter taste in public's mouth and the following game was made so it would not taint the legacy of the series.
You got nothin’ and nothin’s got you I can see your fear it surrounds you Built with strife and insight but it’s not enough I’ll defeat and discreet your every move
I remember my first experience with the DMC series was with 3. My cousin was stuck on the Nevan boss fight and i asked him if i could try playing,after some tries I finally managed to beat her and the glorious cutscene of Dante acquiring his new weapon made me fall in love with the series
If DMC6 carries the tradition of being a prequel like DMC3 it should have Young Sparda as main character. Have him control like a mix of Dante and Vergil but very different from Nero and I'm buying that Day 1
I always found the character of Lady to be a bit more complex then the surface level presented in the game. Yes she wants revenge but clearly done her research and training to become a Demon Hunter. So when Lady asks Dante to reveal his name after her bossfight, I interpret that as her last sneaky resort. The whole belief that you have more power over a demon is you can command them by their true name. And literally seconds after Lady commands Dante to kill her father. She might not be as strong as the player character but definitely has more knowledge about- and sneaky ways- to kill demons.
I know it wasn't widely known but Doppleganger with Super Dante was a great way for me and my bro to co-op (he could even play as Vergil on the boss fight against Arkham) Anyone else used to do this?
@@gallonmitchell8863 afraid i don't know.When i did it it was the original ps2 version (i think) Its easy enough to find out.Just plug in a 2nd controller with Doppleganger style eqipped.Activate and see if you can move around on controller 2.
This is the game that made me realise what I love in video games. The intensity of this game drove me to play better, to learn, and it shaped how I play video games to this day.
Hey suzi, you might have missed it, but in every starting cutscene of each level there is a number concealed (or not) somewhere that says the number of the mission For example, mission 1 is on the pizza cardboard, mission 11 on the bloodtrail on arkham's legs, mission 6 on the signs of the rocket explosion and so on. A cool detail that is easy to miss ^^
Ah, my first DMC, my first love. This game sold me with its crazy combat action of the intro alone. Keep doing a great job with your analysis as always.
Don't forget the Light Novels. Those were awesome and one of the reasons I was so excited for Nico's reveal in Five. Her Grandmother was amazing and one of the reasons that even to this day I can't see Ebony and Ivory close up without it bringing a tear to my eye.
A fun little secret is that a second player can actually plug in their controller and play as Virgil during the fights he's a part of. It's the perfect "little brother/big brother" playing together moment. I'll always remember my brother and I fighting together just like Dante and Virgil. I love this game and I love that you've covered it!
You know, it always bothered me how lady kinda just walked of the stab wound to her leg she got from her father. With the size of the blade and the angle it entered you see it clearly severe 75% of her leg including the bone!
Another detail I love is that every cutscene shows the number of the mission. This game is just so memorable and that a second controller can control Vergil or the Doppelganger. Jackpot.
The last fight with vergil was so rough the first time I did it but its basically my favourite now. Visually speaking though the fight on the tower looks so good in the cinematic.
I always thought that a title where Vergil and Dante team up and fight demons together for a whole game would be badass. It could have drop-in co-op and a Vergil that isn't constantly posting new power memes to reddit.
Reuben Langdon IS Dante and I'm so happy he returned for dmc4 and dmc5. What you said about the development with him has only made me like him even more.
You forgot to mention that a second player can pick up the other controller and play as Virgil during Arkham's boss fight (And also as Dante's doppelganger when he uses that skill)
Sadly, they eliminated that feature in the special edition, which is the one that got ported to higher end consoles. Did you also know that you can 'shoot' and 'slash' the "Now Loading" text while waiting for the game to load? That was also removed with the port...sadly :(
This game was my life when it came out. I don't think I've played through a game and memorized its contents more than this. If only ten games could be preserved in a capsule for posterity, this would have to be one of them, no doubt.
@@turnerbrawley4715 Emulate it. Almost any toaster or decently modern laptop can run PCSX2. My brother did that and he said it only adversely affected a fishing minigame.
I've download a mod for resident evil 2 that had your name, so curious I looked it up and found your channel and realized I've already watched multiple video of yours. Your voice is soothing and your video are really well made, really enjoy it, also your Instagram cosplay are on point ! Keep it up
My load out was always these few: Rebellion Beowulf Or Agni and Rudra Ebony and Ivory Shotgun (early game) Kalina Ann Swordmaster or Trickster (depends on how the user feels and enemies present)
Love your vids Sue, always really thorough and very interesting, I especially really like the personal aspect of all your vids, your perspective and history of the game. Rock on, I can't wait to see your vid on 4 and 5 :) !
DMC does a really good job of not being humorless but never letting humor come before cool. It's a pretty strong balance that keeps Dante from being edgy while making him able to be taken seriously.
Don't be so hard on yourself! There is always something new to discover in DMC 3, I recently learned this technique myself watching someone's else play through! Same goes for the styles, if you get the HD collection on steam for PC, you can mod the game to get the proper HD texture mod, and the Style switcher mod (like in DMC 4). Also in special edition you can get an infinite devil trigger which was discovered as a glitch in the original game, if you have a copy of the original game and if you managed to activate the infinite devil trigger glitch alongside the doppelganger style, you can effectively turn your game into a Co-Op experience!!! This "feature" or "glitch" was later removed in special edition. Even if you use doppelganger with the infinite devil trigger (which is unlock-able in special edition) it's not Co-Op. :D
Oh my goodness, this entire video made me relive the two years I played this game and all the struggles, late nights and little victories. I remember being stuck on several bosses for months and forcing myself to stop mashing the controller and really think of how I had to play to beat them. Also, I love the little bit continuity with the demon sword later becoming Alister in DMC 1
Totally awesome devil may cry 3 i love this game so much i ve so much memories of it and lone time no see though welcome back, cheers to everyone as well.
Hilariously enough, Lady, on top of helping Dante get back on his feet, heavily contributes to ruining his life by putting him in copious amounts of debt. Mostly for Dante trashing her bike, but also just puts all the expensive clothes she buys on his tab. Sidenote: DT is still as SSS as always
@@nathanielbaldevino5364 No, I didn't skip the tutorial. I just somehow missed it. After playing DMC 1 and 2 I just assumed I know all I needed to about Devil Trigger.
When Devil May Cry 5 came out, i nearly played it before playing 1, 2, and 3... I decided to play all 3 in order to gain context on the world, and appreciate the characters much more by the time i get to 5 Im very glad i played them...and yes, even 2 (though i wont go back to it)
This is soo well made! I did not expect to watch the whole video but I just couldn't stop, I enjoyed every second of it! Well written, all-encompassing, you bring up great points and it's not too much. I like your voice too, it's pleasant :) Thank you!
Great video as always, and always nice to get a rare glimps of the face behind the microphone. =) Also hell yes to a SMT video. Persona has been my favorite JRPG series since the PS1 days. Would be cool to have a video exploring the series it originated from.
DMC3 is one of my favorite games of all time. Music, story, themes, choreography and gameplay all come together like chocolate and penutbutter. It gives me chill every time
This game is such a masterpiece and is so special!!! I cried a lot of times during the video and could spend hours talking about how this game is a lesson in storytelling, art direction, soundtrack etc
Loved the video as always . Im more than glad of a good take on the DMC series that makes me remember the love for the old school games and how i got to know them,
Wow Bravo! Outstanding Devil May Cry 3 overview, review, and analysis of behind the scenes stuff! Now I understand the rivalry even more between Dante, Vergil, and Lady.
Fun Fact, if you killed 100 enemies in the credit scene, you'll get to see an extended cutscene where Vergil tries and fails to defeat Mundus and thus the reason why he was possessed in the first DMC. Tragic but otherwise ties in the first game completely/
So that's the condition for it. I've seen people do play throughs and missing that scene. It carries a significant weight to it.

Ok Im lowkey relieved to hear that DMC 3 was hard for others too, I legit thought I was just trash lol
Game was hard as shit but I just beat DMD and VMD modes lol omg stress
Oh it’s brutal the first time, but badass at the same time. It actively makes you want to get better at it.
its hard even for people who can jump cancel and do advanced stuff. You can never just relax unless you're Donguri lol
@@BloodRainKnightX Same here loved the game so much completed every mode lol
Me too, I probably am
Love the Persona 4 at the beginning. Love your videos on this series btw!

Friend: One more mission, man
Me: We just lost an Afternoon to this guy
[insert tower dive scene]
Me: *Now, I'm Motivated* 😐
Ah Memories...
*does the same thing later during the vergil 2 battle theme* all right I think I'm done for the eveni- *hears the divine hate battle theme* nooope!
For some reason the “Wanna know the name... Devil May Cry” line is my favorite in all of DMC3
Sphere hunter for audible plz amazon
I need this
Yes.
Agree
Spoon radio could also work
Imagine this voice for a 40K book.
Sphere uploaded a DMC3 video. This is gonna be one hell of a party!
wait what, I never knew that there is a DT explosion thing..
30:24 My favourite Vergil line.
That's great and all but CUTE SUCCUBUS SUZI!?
Not anymore, I'm a Kazuma Kaneko alien demon thing now!
Kinda makes me wonder what your lvl 4 Devil Trigger is going to look like.
@@TheSphereHunter Pretty soon you'll be a demon queen ^^
@@TheSphereHunter No matter what, you'll always be best girl. That's what's important.
@@Chokah cute bug lizard Suzi
31:55 vergil: don't you dare say it! Lol
Never really got into DMC but now watching this makes me want to play all 3 and really love Dante as a character as well as his groovy attitude
9:59
HAH, i'll just pause the video and read their description
Bam , you were defeated m'lady.
Damn
Nice art. Always hyped when you upload.
I LOVE YOU FOR PUTTING THE MISSION SELECT SONG FROM DMC 2 RIGHT AT THE START OF THE VIDEO
Probably spent a little too long trying to pause at the right moment at 28:31 lol, perfection!
you can pause, then press the < or > keys to move frame by frame

"The year was 2005."
aka the best year ever
I call it "The Edge Game Year"
i was born then so yes it was the best year ever
The 360 launch was cool but I think 2004 had the better games
@@archienewby4927 same
I was ten... lol
Ah, my first DMC, my first love. This game sold me with its crazy combat action of the intro alone. Keep doing a great job with your analysis as always.
1 second in and "The year is 2005."
TRANSFORRRRMMMMMEEEERRRSSSSSS!!!
It is the year 2005, the Decepticons have conquered the Autobots home planet of Cybertron...
The Sphere Hunter back again with her beautiful voice ❤😩
Don't forget the Light Novels. Those were awesome and one of the reasons I was so excited for Nico's reveal in Five. Her Grandmother was amazing and one of the reasons that even to this day I can't see Ebony and Ivory close up without it bringing a tear to my eye.
A fun little secret is that a second player can actually plug in their controller and play as Virgil during the fights he's a part of. It's the perfect "little brother/big brother" playing together moment. I'll always remember my brother and I fighting together just like Dante and Virgil. I love this game and I love that you've covered it!
Devil May Cry 3 was my first DMC game. I really loved it, Dante is such an badass on this game and the story is really good. One of my favourites!
You know, it always bothered me how lady kinda just walked of the stab wound to her leg she got from her father. With the size of the blade and the angle it entered you see it clearly severe 75% of her leg including the bone!
Right? Also getting stabbed through the artery in your thigh like that is most definitely a death sentence in any other context lol
Another detail I love is that every cutscene shows the number of the mission. This game is just so memorable and that a second controller can control Vergil or the Doppelganger. Jackpot.
I played DMC 3 recently and I loved it particularly the boss fights against Vergil.
The last fight with vergil was so rough the first time I did it but its basically my favourite now. Visually speaking though the fight on the tower looks so good in the cinematic.
Sitting here playing “devils never cry” on the piano and this notification pops up.. huh
Convenient
Its true i was the piano
@@BazzRinku95 can I ask what song you're doing on the piano
You must've summoned the video.
Speak of the devil.
I always thought that a title where Vergil and Dante team up and fight demons together for a whole game would be badass. It could have drop-in co-op and a Vergil that isn't constantly posting new power memes to reddit.
Reuben Langdon IS Dante and I'm so happy he returned for dmc4 and dmc5. What you said about the development with him has only made me like him even more.
the intro with persona on the background made me think you were about to say you discovered dmc from the smt3 cameo xD
You forgot to mention that a second player can pick up the other controller and play as Virgil during Arkham's boss fight
(And also as Dante's doppelganger when he uses that skill)
Nice
Sadly, they eliminated that feature in the special edition, which is the one that got ported to higher end consoles. Did you also know that you can 'shoot' and 'slash' the "Now Loading" text while waiting for the game to load? That was also removed with the port...sadly :(
@@hunterofcomedy thank God I still have the vanilla version lol.
A really amazing video! I hope to see what you say about 4 and 5!
This game was my life when it came out.
I don't think I've played through a game and memorized its contents more than this.
If only ten games could be preserved in a capsule for posterity, this would have to be one of them, no doubt.
Been waiting for this! Also i see that persona 4! Would be cool to see you cover persona!
I wish I could play persona 4 I don't have a ps2 or vita.
@@turnerbrawley4715 Emulate it. Almost any toaster or decently modern laptop can run PCSX2. My brother did that and he said it only adversely affected a fishing minigame.
@@TJbrena unfortunately I don't have a pc lol.
@@turnerbrawley4715 you can also play it on ps3!
@@TheMidnightChannel thankfully I have a ps3 I wonder if persona 4 would get remastered on the ps4.
I've download a mod for resident evil 2 that had your name, so curious I looked it up and found your channel and realized I've already watched multiple video of yours. Your voice is soothing and your video are really well made, really enjoy it, also your Instagram cosplay are on point ! Keep it up
My load out was always these few:
Rebellion
Beowulf
Or
Agni and Rudra
Ebony and Ivory
Shotgun (early game)
Kalina Ann
Swordmaster or Trickster (depends on how the user feels and enemies present)
Terrific video. Good job on giving us clean audio of the best scenes too
Love your vids Sue, always really thorough and very interesting, I especially really like the personal aspect of all your vids, your perspective and history of the game. Rock on, I can't wait to see your vid on 4 and 5 :) !
AAAAAAHHHH THE HUNTRESS OF 3D CIRCLES IS BACK
I love the format for the intros to these videos. It's nice to get an idea of Suzi's first experiences with each game
DMC does a really good job of not being humorless but never letting humor come before cool.
It's a pretty strong balance that keeps Dante from being edgy while making him able to be taken seriously.
12:16
I've been playing DMC for years and I never knew this. I'm an idiot.
Don't be so hard on yourself! There is always something new to discover in DMC 3, I recently learned this technique myself watching someone's else play through! Same goes for the styles, if you get the HD collection on steam for PC, you can mod the game to get the proper HD texture mod, and the Style switcher mod (like in DMC 4). Also in special edition you can get an infinite devil trigger which was discovered as a glitch in the original game, if you have a copy of the original game and if you managed to activate the infinite devil trigger glitch alongside the doppelganger style, you can effectively turn your game into a Co-Op experience!!! This "feature" or "glitch" was later removed in special edition. Even if you use doppelganger with the infinite devil trigger (which is unlock-able in special edition) it's not Co-Op. :D
I went as far as the 10th mission in DMD mode and I only discovered this years after while watching some pros.
Brilliant video! Thank you for the trip down memory lane, ah! The nostalgia!
Oh my goodness, this entire video made me relive the two years I played this game and all the struggles, late nights and little victories. I remember being stuck on several bosses for months and forcing myself to stop mashing the controller and really think of how I had to play to beat them.
Also, I love the little bit continuity with the demon sword later becoming Alister in DMC 1
Thank you so much for making this. This is the first time I've been on this channel, and i am so happy that I found it
I am so glad I subbed, nothing like finding like minded, introspective fans of what you're also a fan of.
Totally awesome devil may cry 3 i love this game so much i ve so much memories of it and lone time no see though welcome back, cheers to everyone as well.
Hilariously enough, Lady, on top of helping Dante get back on his feet, heavily contributes to ruining his life by putting him in copious amounts of debt. Mostly for Dante trashing her bike, but also just puts all the expensive clothes she buys on his tab.
Sidenote: DT is still as SSS as always
Having started bingeing your content I'm a fan now!
Oml that opening showing persona 4 is blessed. I'd love to see you do a commentary on one of the persona games. Keep up the great content btw.
Ok, WOW. I NEVER knew about the Devil Trigger Explosion in all the years I've played this game.
You played with the tutorial off? Or you skipped every tutorial windows in the game?
@@nathanielbaldevino5364 No, I didn't skip the tutorial. I just somehow missed it. After playing DMC 1 and 2 I just assumed I know all I needed to about Devil Trigger.
@@AlexanderFrost That's because it was only implemented in the 3rd game. The next installments didn't brought back DT explosion again.
you got me hyped for that upcoming SMT series video
Great video with a ton of genuine love and care put into it. Really makes you want to play through DMC3 again so I think I will.
Thank you for this excellent, and passionate, video and breakdown of DMC3! Also, great gameplay highlights!
When Devil May Cry 5 came out, i nearly played it before playing 1, 2, and 3...
I decided to play all 3 in order to gain context on the world, and appreciate the characters much more by the time i get to 5
Im very glad i played them...and yes, even 2 (though i wont go back to it)
This is soo well made! I did not expect to watch the whole video but I just couldn't stop, I enjoyed every second of it! Well written, all-encompassing, you bring up great points and it's not too much. I like your voice too, it's pleasant :) Thank you!
Great video as always, and always nice to get a rare glimps of the face behind the microphone. =)
Also hell yes to a SMT video. Persona has been my favorite JRPG series since the PS1 days. Would be cool to have a video exploring the series it originated from.
DMC3 is one of my favorite games of all time. Music, story, themes, choreography and gameplay all come together like chocolate and penutbutter. It gives me chill every time
This game is such a masterpiece and is so special!!! I cried a lot of times during the video and could spend hours talking about how this game is a lesson in storytelling, art direction, soundtrack etc
Loved the video as always . Im more than glad of a good take on the DMC series that makes me remember the love for the old school games and how i got to know them,
Wow Bravo! Outstanding Devil May Cry 3 overview, review, and analysis of behind the scenes stuff! Now I understand the rivalry even more between Dante, Vergil, and Lady.
