Painful challenge, congrats on the run and thanks for the great video
SSSmoke! I love your videos thank you so much for the comment!!
Cool
Just one legend complimenting another.
You sound like Vergil if he was really tired.
Correction: he sounds like an "unmotivated" Vergil
So, vergil without the MOTIVATION?
He sounds more like V to me.
@@king__T same thing really
Omg i can’t unhear it
Vergil is never tired
He is always MOTIVATED
nero: a lot of spaming taunts
v: litteraly just v
dante: ROYAL GUARD
v is rts
@@DevoutMeteor582red tearstone ring?
@@vernonroche6170that ring goes hard fr
Nero drop kicking his dad in the face is the most in character shit ever. He literally did the same thing to Dante when they met. I mean he's stabbed them both with their own swords too, so I don't see why not.
This is an excellent video, man. Subscribed.
Thank you so much!! Yeah I love when Nero and Dante first met, such a cool sequence.
@@LucidEnigmaX Kyrie:in danger what is our protag gonna do?
A:shoot him
B:stab him
C: *DROPKICK*
The fact that you only used air grabs for the mission 20 Vergil fight is hilarious, great idea and video
Thank you very much! I've got a couple more challenge ideas in the works so keep an eye out! ^^
@@LucidEnigmaX isn't there a grab as SD Nero against SD Vergil where you slam his doppelganger and him together if so then that would have been hilarious to do in the challenge though great work
@@zazz7027 There absolutely is! I completely forgot about it in the moment though, but yeah it certainly would have added some variety, I love that grab. Thank you!
"You took your son's arm for more power and you still can't even beat him, pfft" - Dante.
The golden orb moment looked painful to witness and feel at the same time, it felt as if you sacrificed your very soul to achieve absolute victory. Maybe Dante and Vergil aren’t so different after all-
It was Dante's final obstacle before he could truly confront Vergil on equal terms... haha but yeah it was extremely painful to make that decision because I really wanted to just do the fight in one go, but I'm happy I was able to turn it into something I'm proud of lol

As someone eho platinumed DMC5, *he spittin' mad facts.*
@@krazyguy5391 try it on hell and hell
Mission 8 and 10 toom absolutely forever to S rank on son of sparda. I have only just got to it on Dante must die and I'm not excited at all
18:08 I absolutely remember this, as someone who S Rank'd the entire game including DMD. Birb vs Artemis and a lot of jumping, then Shadow and Birb with a lot of reading and dodging and DTing the familiars just to get through Cavaliere, ending with Nightmare and the bois destroying Goliath.
Haha yeah it took more strategy and time than it should have to be honest, I probably died like 3-4 times at that part. I S Rank'd the game back in the day and replaying mission 10 over and over still haunts me.
@@LucidEnigmaX Oh god, mission 10. I used Conqvist's no damage strat for that one.
i did 1.-shadow vs cavaliere 2. shadow and nightmare vs goliath and 3. shadow, nightmare and griffon vs artemis, got hit at the very last attack when she had 1 pixel hp lol
@@LucidEnigmaX DMD missions 7 8 & 10 haunt me the only reason they took so long to S rank was me dying whenever I multiplied my style by 1.2 it was always above 6000 but angelos are absolutely broken on dmd I had to switch out of turbo mode for mission 7 because of the final arena
V: oh no. Anyways
Vergil DOES regenerate health lol, he just does it slowly
Actually, when he activates his SDT, he gains some health
wait he does?
@@literally-nobody242 in m19 yeah
Only in M19, in M20 it's disabled
@@caniputmyballsinyojaw it's been 1 year, go outside clown
I can feel the algorithm with this one.
Good job, soldier! Your display of skill was lovely.
Appreciate it!
I figured devil breakers would be allowed for use for nero but i guess they do count as weapons
yeah I thought about it for a while. Like the buster arm devil breaker, its just a direct upgrade to nero's default devil buster so I just decided I'd only use what he 'innately' has
@@LucidEnigmaX fair enough
Amazing job, and well made.
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice video! Never thought of trying to beat DMC5 without weapons. I guess that's another way of playing the game.
I love finding really obscure and interesting ways to challenge myself haha
Press F to pay respect for tactical femboy

In all honesty, this challenge of yours is SUPER beneficial for speed run tactics.
You found out different boss mechanics or gameplay that people probably wouldn’t have discover otherwise.
The devs really went all out with this game
Dude your dedication is so impressive! Plus the video was very fun to watch as well. I’m happy i found your channel and you totally deserve more subscribers!
Thank you! All this positive feedback has definitely motivated me to do even more crazy stuff too so it won't just stop with this one :)
The production value on this one was great! Love your commentary and editing, especially with the gag during V's boss rush.
Thank you! You should check out my Final Fantasy challenge that I posted as well, I tried some different edits and tried to up the quality of my production more in that one! This one was my first major project and I'm really grateful for all the wonderful things people are saying about it
The grim grip you have to shoot early on is for a side section. I think it leads to one of the big red gem clusters.
Ahh gotcha!
@@LucidEnigmaX Actually there is another shoot grim grip on the main path, if V doesn't take out the bridge in that mission you have to go through the shoot grim grip.
@@teashrimp6498 is that what that bridge does
@@justanothercommenterwithan9089 Yeah pretty much
Man, this is dedication!
Kudos.
And your narration was fun :)
I appreciate that!!
You're the man! That was incredible, just absolutely amazing! Thanks for this challenge, and this video
The way you perfectly represented the pain, anguish, self-hate and demonic voice in your head when you see the option to use a glorb after working so hard 😫😂
It feels so wrong but had to be done!
Keep up the great content bro!
For something this high quality I expected something like 20k-30k subs but bro here comes in and sweeps the spotlight with just 360 something subs bruh
You seem like a fun guy, subbed
Damn this video is awesome! I can't imagine the pain you had to go through lol.
Subscribed!
Propably the first time in the history of this game that someone willingly chose V over Dante or Nero
Nice challenge run, I admire your skill and determination
Pain. Take a load off with some Lipton Ice Tea.
Dude! This is sick! I would never have the patience to attempt this lol So thank you for giving us this glorious and painful run.
Patience and the ability to repeatedly bang my head against a wall are like my two things haha
1:36 Nero uses gun and instantly ruins your playthrough
Alternate cutscene where he dropkicks the tentacle
This was awesome, you’ve certainly earned my sub and I hope the algorithm treats this SSS video well
thanks dad
@@LucidEnigmaX You have done well, my child
I did not realize that Gilgamesh had that car phase. Really cool video, you have more will than I could ever have.
Holy shit this is actually pretty nuts! Congrats on doing it though!!
Now try beating Bloody Palace with these rules!
I just beat the bloody palace with an even crazier ruleset... currently in the works editing the video ;)
Gotta be honest, it's getting kinda addicting watching these absolutely ridiculous runs, and I thought normal DMD was difficult. Lovely video thoroughly entertaining!
Your dedication is amazing
Respect man, you did good job right there
This truly is a challenge requiring gigaballs. Thank you for doing this.
Wow this was amazing and fun to watch 💙
man... this some dedication...
You're making it look easy, I cant even complete one mission in Dante must die without, well, dying-
Maybe I'm just horrible at this game xD
well thank you! You can definitely improve, staying in the air is your best friend and jumping is super useful!
Beat Devil May Cry without “MOTIVATED!!!!!”
Damn I thought the same and tried it with human difficulty 😂 still it was so hard and we need soooo much patience to do that I left it on second mission lol. You really are hardworking you deserve a sub ❤ lots of love and support from me 💗
I loved everytime a random guy showed up in the Co-op popup
My man discovered wholeass new phases for Gilgamesh, I didn't even know V helped more than once.
"In this courtyard it gives you 2 different paths" actually it gives you 4 with dt and trickster it's rather easy to jump to the 3rd and 4th levels allowing you to skip quite a bit of fighting
Don't some of those skips require using Cavaliere as well? If it was just DT and trickster then damn that really would have helped me out haha
I do it with just Dt and Trickster Dt gives you like 2 extra jumps as Dante plus a glide but that doesn't really matter here, and with trickster you can then use the horizontal movement to go up to 4th floor, I don't remember if you need to use the trick to go a bit higher but that's the gist of it
@@LucidEnigmaX czcams.com/video/0FCzIl-iJFc/video.html
Here I went and recorded it real quick
@@xyno2112 Thanks for the tip! I'll try it out
great video, well put together. Only thing I feel like its missing is some background music.
I'll keep that in mind! I figured the low game audio/music in the background was enough but I'll try something different in my next one, thanks for the feedback!!
@@LucidEnigmaX actually the way it is is good, great commentary that has no need for 5-minute crafts background music
Well I wasn't really thinking of 5 minute crafts background music. More so something that can add suspense to certain parts of the post commentary.
@@Dingo761 yeah, actually maybe some quiet DMC games soundtrack in the background when explaining, that gets a little bit louder when he stops talking. Now when i think about it, it could be good. Agree - just didn't feel it was missing anything when first watching it, hah
That has been around since 3. It's mainly called Royal Guard.
Look... I'm not the best at DMC, but I've seen wild pro gp, but I'm barely even a minute in and I've already got a headache there's no way I could ever do this, props to you my guy
Excellent video, must have taken a large amount of time lol
It definitely took a while lol, thank you though!
17:50
'Aight, I subbing lmao
i tough it was not using meele weapons ,but also fireweapons with nero/dante too was cool
Drop kicked that like button for the motivation to make this video big salute
Big ups to you for the like!
lmao 😂 I had to subscribe. you are a genius
Thank you for the support!
Absolutely mad
wouldn't have it any other way
5:34 "extremely unpleasant time"
bro is grain belowstory
Mans needs more views for this video
Can't imagine the time it took tbh
Most bosses (or even some enemies for that matter) have rush attacks like the one artemis does at 6:00 that can be grabbed by Nero. Anyways nice job with the run, this must've took a crapton of time to make
You can grab Artemis out of that?! I obviously knew about Vergil, does that work against Goliath as well when he sprints toward Nero? I knew about a lot of those attacks being grabbable in dmc4 but I never even thought to try in 5 haha that's so cool
@@LucidEnigmaX Yeah, Goliath is grabbable when he runs at you.
You are insane but. I applaud you my friend
it took me a year and a half to beat DMD, and I had weapons. Oh, and good job on the video
absolutely wild
What A Frustrating Challenge But I Appreciate You For Doing It It May Take You 1 Billion Hours To Do This Challenge You're A True Legendary Devil Hunter Congrats
That Eren meme near the end had me cackling
this truly is the run of all time
Just a little tip for anyone else looking to do this sort of challenge
You can still attack without weapons while taunting with every character, and I don't mean like Nero's dropkick, but legit taunting and still being able to use his ghost punch, Dante's summoned swords, Vergil with both summoned swords & his doppleganger, and V (obviously)
Yep! I opted for a pure 'no weapons equipped' sorta thing with Dante but his Four Handed swords certainly would have been fine to use for the challenge, just to take the edge off.
That was amazing!!!
You're amazing!!! Thank you so much :)
This video is the sole reason I started watching AOT so thanks
For the Gilgamesh boss the leg grapple points will open if you just use the devil bringer on em, just a tip if you wanted to retry this helish challenge, fantastic job bro
Thanks for the tip! 500 hours in the game and I'm still constantly learning new things haha
@@LucidEnigmaX glad i could add something to your arsenal, you're a beast man
I think that the idea came into a lot of people's heads when seeing that trophy but nobody was crazy enough to actually try it.
Technically Nero could be allowed to use Monkey Business, Pasta Breaker and Sweet Surrender considering bananas, silverware and "back massagers" aren't weapons.
Dante's first mission has a way to skip the Chaos fight, if you enter the optional room with the Empusas then immediately leave it.
Nightmare fight might be easier if you focus on fighting Shadow and Griffon when Nightmare is chilling, and prioritize survival while Nightmare is on the field. After Stalemating them about 2-3 times they'll lose the ability to revive and Nightmare will drain a huge chunk of its HP to bring them back, but they revive with pretty low HP so Stalemating them again isn't that hard.
I didn't know about that Chaos skip! Technically that's true about the breakers but I didn't miss them haha. And you're definitely right about the nightmare fight. I just did another playthrough of the game and it gets really easy to stalemate them later on. A slower approach on taunt/jump canceling for DT and royal revenge when Nightmare is away would certainly make things a lot easier there, thank you!
Yo this was great! Loved the edits man 😂
And why torture yourself with dmd mode where the enemies are bullet sponges? Why didn't you go sos mode?
GREAT VIDEO NONETHELESS
Hahaha thank you! It's true the only real thing that changes between SOS and DMD is the damage, I just figured it was already an absurd challenge, so why not see just how absurd I can take it lol.
underrated youtuber
Yes you can, It's called heaven and hell.
But seriously god damn mate you did what ours would consider madness
Damn it why didn't I think of that! Haha but for real I got a lot of madness to go around, I'm currently working on a ridiculous bloody palace ruleset as well
It's baffling to me how people can willingly torture themselves with these challenges.
And I'm not complaining cause I love watching this whacky sh1t 🤪
Haha glad to hear it!! I got more on the way!!!
All the shenanigans in mission 18 before fighting nightmare, like destroying the hidden blood clots makes the fight easier; it increases the arena size and even gets rid of at least one of his healing pools.
That being said, it’s still a pain in the ass.
SSS dedication
and motivation
You deserve more than 100k likes on this video because i tried this challange and im just going to say it was pain that was 11 days long 😆
Thank you and congrats on your run as well haha! I would love to see more people start challenge running DMC, I love the series for so many reasons and I think challenge runs are just another layer to enjoying the games like speedrunning or styling or anything like that
Did he just say " THE DEAD WEIGHT DEVIL HUNTER, NERO " 💀
This was the most legit challenge run I've seen in quite a while. Every video had the moment where they go "so we have to do x just this one time, invalidating the run." but this, this was what I like to see. Sheer determination. That Nightmare edit was freaking HYPE.
A while ago, I *started* a similar challenge. Basically just not allowed to press the sword/shadow and the gun/griffon buttons, but with each character’s special button (style/breaker/cane) being allowed. Big difference compared to this was that I chose to go through SOS *on a fresh save file.* As a result, I knew that the challenge was flat out impossible in the Prologue from lack of any option beyond dropkick (so no way to hit the green buggers). I quit at Mission 3’s boss because it was just way too tedious.
That's an interesting idea! I think the prologue might actually be possible just from playing around with it in my head tho! So after the green empusa heal someone, they come down to the ground to suck up blood and get their regenerative properties back, and that might be what you need to get a dropkick in and stun them to death.
damn. the dedication. respect
Great vid
Thank you so much :)
Well done
Shit I left my stuff at home
"And next we'll try to beat Metal Gear Solid 5 without any guns"
Removing the game then trying to play the game
you are a chad amongst men if you still have some of your sanity left
This was Really entertaining How much time did this take you to make ?
It took me the better part of May to record and then most of June/half of July to edit haha, it was also my first real legitimate editing project so it took me a bit longer than it would now

you used your body, which means you used a weapon

The mvp of the run is the protagonist

yo this video fire
Lucid Enigma? My long lost brother fr
Welcome, brother Enigma
I enjoyed the AOT reference near the end
Dante has it easier than Nero, with royal guard it just becomes easier to give damage sustainably, but-yes-it takes weeks to months of royal guard practice for those MAD creators to do those no damage boss rushes. To the players that casually style switched in and out of royal guard, they get tricked into thinking mobs are easier to deal with than they actually are.
Very true indeed
Should've used promotion to kill with V. Either way, great run
A route on Mission 18 that might actually work without a Gold Orb would probably be the full completion route where you destroy the optional roots holding up each of the healing points in the final boss arena. I...think that's what they do, anyway.
Oh damn, I destroyed 2 I think but couldn't find a 3rd (if there is one) but I really didn't know what they did either haha. Thats crazy! I might go back and try that out
Beating dmc 5 without weapons. THIS i like.
That was sooo good
“With his sage knowledge of how to handle multiple mouths…” lmao. I’m not even sure I can beat this on dmd normally
This is insane
1:32 the run is now invalid
Why don’t you have more subs! The views don’t add up with the subs. You deserve more subs! And likes!
I really appreciate that! Hopefully they keep coming :)
8:19 imagine coding in an entire phase for a boss only for literally no one to see even on the highest difficulty and learning about it years later by an extreme challenge run on max difficulty
Like Wtf were they thinking did they really think it was gonna take us 15 minutes to kill this thing
Haha it might have been the easiest thing to do, instead of having the boss AI script stop pathing after a while and potentially break, they just designed a quick transition form where they could loop the AI to do these few specific things indefinitely, but yeah it was certainly a surprise! I wonder if anyone had ever actually discovered that before lol
@@LucidEnigmaX I have countless hours in this game and never seen that so I doubt many people know this
it sounds like vergil is narrating the run as if he were a gamer
