Been Playing DMC 2 Recently And I Gotta Say, This Game Is Pretty Fun Actually!

Family portrait.

Taking an evolutionary anthropology class has made me hate Netflix DMC's use of demons as a metaphor for different races even more

RACE IS A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT! DIFFERENCES IN PHYSICAL FEATURES ACROSS DIFFERENT POPULATIONS VARIES WIDELY EVEN WITHIN ONE ETHNIC GROUP, AND THEY ARE NOT EXCLUSIVE TO SPECIFIC PEOPLES! HOW WE CLASSIFY RACE IN ONE COUNTRY ISN'T GOING TO BE THE SAME IN ANOTHER!

BY TRYING TO EXPLAIN THAT DEMONS ARE A SUBSPECIES OF HUMAN, YOU END UP REINFORCING THE IDEA THAT DIFFERENT RACES ARE INFACT BIOLOGICALLY DESTINED TO BEHAVE DIFFERENTLY TO THE "DEFAULT"! YOU CANNOT MAKE AN ANTI-RACISM METAPHOR USING AN IDEA THAT HAS BEEN USED TO ENFORCE RACISM

Let me spell it out : I DESPISE Netflix's Devil May Cry adaptation. I loathe EVERY aspect of it - the butchered characterization, the nonsensical plot, all of it. While some might find it entertaining, to me it's nothing but a self-important, meme-obsessed dumpster fire that cosplays as 'faithful' while gleefully pissing on the original lore. And Shankar's Twitter circus? The final nail in this OOC dumpster fire. Call me oversensitive or overreacting if you want, I don't care. If you want to turn off your brain and enjoy this trainwreck, knock yourself out - just don't police how others analyze this character assassination masquerading as an adaptation.

And to anyone determined to die on this hill defending Netflix's DMC dumpster fire - save your breath. Try to 'well actually 🤓 ☝' me about ~objectivity~ all you want - you're not changing my mind, just earning yourself a VIP pass to to my block list. Debate club's closed here.

"mirrorshipping", "doppelbanging", pussy ass behavior. look who can't say selfcest

I do think it's really impressive how Dante is able to feel like a consistent and well thought out character with a good progression despite how vastly different he can be. From full depression and emo to whacky woohoo pizza man, and none of it really feels that out of place once you've played all the games and experienced some supplemental material. Especially in 4 where you can see him recover his whimsy in real time once he realizes he has a nephew.

Inspired by that one episode in Devil May Cry (2007). Vincent character caught in my attention 👀 Like boi
