Firstly, I'd like to say that I want the core experience of these games to remain the same. I don't want N Sane Trilogy style remakes or any major changes that could potentially ruin the experience of these games, but instead small things like adding new content and some improvements that won't hurt any of the games. With that out of the way, here's what I'd want in a Devil May Cry Collection.
New Content:
• Make Lady a playable character In DMC3:
Make her moveset from the DMC3 boss fight and improve that rather than copy and pasting her DMC4SE moveset. Add her DMC4 outfit as a bonus and add a new unique outfit.
• Add on the fly style switching in DMC3:
This should only be unlocked for players who beat the game on Dante Must Die. This feature would be toggled on and off in the pause menu similar to the secret 4th styles in Yakuza 0. Players shouldn't be able to use on the fly style switching to easily get SS ranks, instead make it so that players get a penalty for using it in missions similar to how Super Costumes work.
• Add an auto saving feature:
Pretty much the exact same thing as DMC4SE but this time don't remove manual saves! In DMC3, players should have their Dante, Vergil and Lady progress saved under one save file similar to DMC4SE. Players should still be able to use other save files if they want to play on a fresh file without deleting their main save file.
• Add a training mode:
Allow the player to choose which enemy or boss they want to practice with and give the player an training menu that would give the player many options.
• Add a boss rush mode:
Allow the player to choose which order they want to fight the bosses in and let the player select only one boss fight if they wish. Make a default boss rush mode so that players who don't any to change anything can go in a play right away.
Improvements:
• Let people map any command to any button in DMC1 and DMC2, similar to how DMC3 and DMC4 let you.
• Fix all of the 4:3 menus.
• Fix some of the pre rendered cutscenes that are in a 4:3 aspect ratio and bad resolution.
Minor Improvements and Bug Fixes:
• Fix the issue in DMC3 where when the player plays as Dante and changes Devil Arms the previous Devil Arm would still appear to be equipped until the player used a melee attack.
• Fix all of the bugs in DMC3 that would corrupt and delete your save file.
• Fix the bugs in DMC3 where the game would freeze when using the Divinity Statue and in the menus.
• Fix the issue where you'd see a black screen when a cutscene was playing which made the game freeze.
Other Way To Make This Collection Great:
• Include DMC4SE with the collection:
If possible add a boss rush mode, training mode, and add classic costumes for Dante and Vergil to wear.
Also, fix major issues players had with DMC4SE such as the removal of manual saving and the changes to how certain combos work on enemy in SE compared to DMC4 Vanilla, this could be fixed with an option to switch between DMC4 Vanilla combat mechanics or DMC4 SE combat mechanic changes.
• Include the entire soundtrack for all games with this collection:
In the HD Collection on PS3 and 360 there were only a few tracks and many of the popular tracks like Devils Never Cry were missing. Maybe include it as a separate digital download or in the collection's main menu.
• Sell the collection for $60USD:
With this amount of new and improved content I don't think anyone would complain with this pricing. If DMC4SE was included it would only make this collection better and would justify this price.
• Include all of the DMC4SE avatars and the digital pre order theme in this collection:
This is a small thing but I think it'd make the fans happy and the people who prefer physical copies over digital.
Final Thoughts:
As you can see I love this franchise and I really want to see a collection like this that could introduce new players and reintroduce fans to the greatest hack n slash series ever created!
If a collection like this was made and given the marketing it deserves it would sell millions and would revive this series so that we could hopefully see a new game in the series.
Sorry for the weird or messy formatting, I'm on mobile and I was trying to make this as neat as possible.
Thank you for reading this long post!
