Originally intended to be the fourth installment in the Resident Evil series, Devil May Cry is an action-adventure game that introduced a host of new elements to the gaming community. Chief among them is the Stylish Rank, which grades the player's performance in combat. The game is split into Missions, which are individually scored according to various factors, such as Orbs gathered and damage taken. Additionally, Devil May Cry did away with the pre-rendered backgrounds of prior Resident Evil games in order to allow for a dynamic camera system.

The coolest part of Devil May Cry aside from its style is just seeing where almost every action game staple came from. The story is simple and goofy, the combat is simple but with some neat combos, and there’s lots of weapon variety.
At the same time, some classic flaws of action games can also be seen. The camera is bad, the platforming is bad, some enemies take too long to kill, and while it’s partially a skill issue some of the bosses are really frustrating (Nightmare). Regardless of that though, it’s still pretty fun and worth playing.

this game filled my dark soul with light
The gameplay could be better, and have better level design, but it's still a very good and fun game.
Devil may cry is a pretty good game! I really liked the combat, I liked how much depth it had, and all the weapons were great to use. The boss fights were also pretty fun, my favorite one is probably one of the Griffon, or Nero Angelo fights. I honestly forgot there was a plot to the game at times, the story was very hands off. The level designs were inconsistent, they were either pretty good or straight up bad.
I had two main issues with the game. I disliked the "checkpoint" system a lot, since there are no checkpoints unless you either find a yellow skull or buy it which is very annoying. Another thing that I disliked was the camera.

The beginning of Capcom’s best series, the game has a lot to offer. Arguably its sequels are a side grade of this game, which focuses much more on Resi style puzzles and atmosphere than its growl metal obsessed brothers.
Sauceless as far as I'm concerned. Where my combos at?
