I honestly don't know what to say: I had a game and character I played and encountered without any preconceptions or already-decided opinions prior, liked them just fine as they were, and these past six years have been spent coming to terms that this version will never again emerge outside of a costume in a crossover game, that the vast majority view DmC and its Dante as bad, that the worst part of fandom won and solidified online harassment as being "righteous" over this decade, and that I really can't form an objective defense for either the game or its lead.

Now that I'm turning 26, it's time I let go of DmC. DmC and its Dante had their time, "the real" Devil May Cry and its Dante "set things right", and I'm rambling about something that is near-universally hated and objectively poorly-written. No further point in me lingering about the negativity it received and still receives when all it does is poison me.
