This game presents some interesting ideas in a unique setting, but it ultimately goes nowhere. Much of this is inspired by Resident Evil 7, and it fails to leave much of an impression of its own.
It was said an American developer couldn't do a hack-and-slash game like Devil May Cry. Santa Monica Studio said "challenge accepted," and surpassed Devil May Cry in the genre with the God of War series. Dante's Inferno is a shameless clone of THE clone, not only in gameplay, but in graphics and style.
There are minute moments of fun in the first half, and the badassery of Graham Mactavish's vocal performance mirrors that of TC Carson's as Kratos. It accomplishes feeling like one giant journey, but pales in comparison to the scope of its inspiration.
Everything is middling in quality: story, character, and combat. Perhaps if they had the chance to make the sequel they were planning that would explore further into The Divine Comedy, we would see some greatness from Dante.

Metroid, but you're a cat. Charming, short, and sweet.
