    Now In todays spin off 'History Of' Episode, today to celebrate the recent release of Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition, I bring you all the history of the dark slater, the alpha and the omega, Vergil!
    I really really hope you all enjoyed this video as I honestly had an incredible time putting this one together, thank you for sitting around till the very end, Its not your typical fighting game content on the channel but to me Devil May Cry V is a very special game, It turned me into a huge fan of the series (I even have a vergil costume, so I hope i was able to share my love for the series and fandom with the rest of you.
    I am still considering this episode to still be a somewhat ‘one and done’. depending on Its reception will kinda determine wether or not I move forward with making more Devil May Cry videos, theirs alot of other characters In the series I can talk about and the world Is so rich with lore and mystery so If you're interested In learning/seeing more, please do support It video with a thumbs up and a comment Is always deeply appreciated!
    I hope you all have all blast with Special Edition and play as Vergil as well as Legendary Dark Knight Mode!
    Until then thats it for me so happy demon hunting/slaying!

    Yes I did not using bury the light during the DMCV section and that is because capcom have been DMCAing people who have used it x_x
    so for the sake of this video going up i have sadly been forced to cut it D:

      Yo! History behind the warrior, long time fan of your vids. Like most, if not all, of your fellow views and fans I am all for new franchises getting highlighted. Yet I do have to wonder, will you ever return to the darkstalkers franchise and finish the history of their characters? I understand there isn't much lore around capcom's criminally underrated fighting game equal to streetfighter, but it's for completion sake.

      It's actually surprising thing that Nero's Mother somehow got Vergil's attention, especially in his mental shape (feelings of guilt, hatred upon himself, PTSD, probably even insomnia).
      When Vergil actually remembered her, looks, instead, very naturally. Because he's the elder son, he has responsibility.

    I love how Vergil’s plan literally has no downsides, Urizen, bud demon half, is only focused on gaining power, which works in Vergil’s interest. If Urizen is killed, then V gets to live as a human, with a new life, a new perspective, and all is well, and when they inevitably merge, Urizen’s power hunger will have given Virgil a shit ton of power he’ll never know the consequences of, as those buffs are made for demons. Ughhh genius

      Its one of the things I really disliked about DMC5 I understand that Vergil is best known as the peak of a rival character but the thing I always loved about their relationship was how friendly it was despite them being completely different in goals. Making Vergil in 5 just be butt hurt about losing to Dante and thinking that Eva didn’t love him as much as Dante really sucks its really just waters his interesting personality and speech about power from seemingly being Vergil angred by his own weakness and inability to save his family (also hence why he seemingly purposely activated Dante’s devil form) instead of just killing him. Now he’s just jealous of Dante being cooler than him

      You’re on the right track, but that isn’t exactly right. That’s basically Norse heaven, not Abrahamic heaven. The Norse gods were said to have resided in Asgard. The God everyone knows about is in heaven. Although, I’m not an expert on Norse mythology so Asgard could actually be something completely different, but Asgard and Heaven are definitely two different things.

      Dante say it, when he first saw and fought nero at the church he noticed the ressemblance with his brother and the fact he got a devil bringer ( who is literally physical manisfestation of having 1/4 of demon blood ) and when he rematch his nephew and saw how the yamato have reacted to nero he knew only vergil's son can reforge yamato that's why he call nero deadweight to prevent him to try to kill his father because dante knew by expérience that people cant kill his father and live with it ( lady said she never came back from killing Arkham )
      Dante often plays dumb but he is smart, and if his personnality was a litlle more serious he could guess V's plan to reunite with himself by himself or maybe by taking time to listening trish

    Hands down, the greatest sibling rivalry in a video game - Dante Vs Vergil.
    So we all love Dante and we have plenty of reasons for this.
    So what makes you love Vergil? It's the fact that he's too motivated to give up. When you knock him down, he'll get right back up with more determination. "IAM THE STORM THAT IS approaching."

  • @KhoaLe-uc2ny
    @KhoaLe-uc2ny Před 2 lety +2

    Let's not forget one major point, that was kinda only glanzed over.
    Vergils hate for (his) humanity and love for (his) demonkind is based on his childhood trauma. He's a child, who was abandoned by his mother, a human, who only survived thanks to his fathers power, a demon. For this he hates humanity and his human side, which he considers weak, untrustworthy and unreliable.
    Dante on the other hand has quite literally the opposite view. His mother, a human, saved his life by sacrificing hers. If his father, a demon, wouldn't have been the Dark Knight Sparda, but just a regular human, or simply hadn't abandoned his family, he wouldn't have lost his mother and his brother on that day.
    Dante however realises through DMC3, that his father sacrificed himself as well, in order to protect not just his family, but humanity itself and accepts his demonic heritage.
    Vergil on the other hand only in the newest installment learns of what actually happened on that faithful day and starts doubting his very reason for existaence, but can't stop now, not after everything he's done, not after giving up everything.
    If you listen to "Bury the Light", Vergils battle theme in V, there are the following lines:
    "Bury the light deep within!
    Cast aside, there's no coming home!
    We're burning chaos in the wind!
    Drifting in the ocean all alone!"
    He is not a bad person by nature, he's a misguided child, who lost his family and thought of himself as being alone.
    He buried his happiness and humanity deep within.
    There is no home, no place for him to return to.
    He truly believes, that he is all alone and will forever be all alone in this world/ocean.
    If he had just given in to his humanity sooner, if he hadn't tried to bury his humanity, he may would have ended up with a brother who truly loves him and a family that he could love, cherish and protect, but Fate just didn't allow for his life to play out that way.
    But now, after all this, he finally realised, that he's not actually alone. His brother, who was his rival since they were children, is still alive and happy to have him back (altough he would never outright say that). His own offspring and a chance to give to him something, that he never had, a father who can train, help and protect him. Once he finishes the business with Dante in the demonic realm, he has finally a place to return to and something to look forward to.
    So in a sense, his quest for more power is finally over
