Can we Fix Devil May Cry 2? - (DMC 2 Definitive Edition Mod Review)

If you have any other potential games that have fanmade mods, patches or remakes that would be viable for "Hidden Potential" then be sure to tell me! I already have a list of 8 or so games I could do videos on but I'd be happy to receive more if you've got them.

If we can fix Sonic 06 and Postal 3... We can fix Devil may cry 2...

considering that during the capcom leak, the source code for DMC2 was explicitly leaked, I feel like someone insane enough could actually reverse engineer the whole game and turn it into an actual videogame like people did with Sonic 06

"We have the technology to rebuild him"

"I can fix you"

DMC3 is proof the team behind 2 could make a good game, they just got dealt a bad hand with it.

I remember being 13 or so, renting the hell out of DMC1 and having a blast. And when I finally scraped enough money to buy a game, I remember seeing DMC2 and thinking "I already played 1 and if 1 was good, the sequel's gotta be better, right?" Oh, the innocence of youth

Bro literally saw his homie crumble in disappointment on a game he looks forward on playing, and decided to fix the said game.

As someone that loves modding games and immensely respect modders, "we will follow your career with great interest"

That one vinesauce Twitch chatter is about to have their mind blown when they hear about this

I remember playing 1, 3, and 4 growing up, but it wasnt until i was like 17 that i realized "Hey, wait a minute! There's a 2 between 1 and 3 right? Why do i have NO idea what DMC 2 is like? Why have I never seen it talked about? If 1 is sick, 3 is sick, and 4 is sick, 2 must be a banger aswell!"

I love this idea for a series but the format could use some work. I like the idea of listing out what improvements were made to the game but imo the visual aren't doing a good job of illustrating what you're referring to. For instance if you're talking about a new launcher added to a combo you should show which one you're referring as you're talking about it. You could even go an extra mile and show the button presses at the bottom of the screen or compare it to the original combo in a split screen view. I don't normally leave comments but I love this kind of content and I think this series has real potential to become a favorite of mine.

Please make Hidden Potential a series!!! This is one of my favorite topics in gaming. Theres so many games out there that deserve a second chance to be truly good

Having already beat DMC2 three times (one for each playable character) this mod is really gonna make me reinstall and play again, huh? Ok, fine. Great concept for a video series. I seem to have a subconscious obsession with fan patches that "fix" old games

"I actually enjoyed dmc 2 🤷‍♂️" The DMC Community: GET EMMMM!!!!!

DMC 2 honestly deserves a full blown reimagining. Some of the ideas the game had were cool and carried over to later games, but its a shame that this game's potential and reputation is eternally marred by its troubled developement.

i guess devils do cry

Only a remake could ever fix it. Not a remaster, a remake. It needs to be remade from the ground up, they'd only have to keep the dark gothic art-style, types of environments and the characters. The story is basically a blank spot they could fill for whatever they want, i couldn't care less for Argosax or whatever the final boss is. That's the good thing about remaking bad games.

It’s funny how even just giving it the classic stinger would improve it by a whole margin

I love the concept for this hidden potential show idea, I hope you end up doing more!
