Finally done with DMC4.
Awesome game/movie. Heh.
Loved the return of Nero. At the end of the game, I mean. Missed the devil-bringer like shit.
Since I don't have much to say, guess I'll just file you in on some tips for the final level. Most of which you probably know if you've come till the final mission.
1. At the inanimate-doppelganger-die-puzzle, go stand by the die and observe the order for a moment. Its a fixed order, not random numbers turning up. Now look at the ground, check out which number you need. Go by the die, keep your finger on the devil-bringer (DB) key ready. Just as your number is ABOUT to turn up, when its halfway between two numbers, hit the devil trigger key. The delay will make sure your number is up when the claw hits it. Plus, your doppelganger always moves counter-clockwise. So, go easy on the math.
2. For Berial, stick to his side. Keep an eye on his movements. He always gives a warning before doing some big shit. If done right, you can kick this guy's butt with zero damage. Whenever he pulls his hand back (means he's gonna SWIPE!), or lifts his forelegs, or something that looks dangerous (heh), jump, jump, JUMP till you're sure you're safe. Back to side, summon your demon form, slash, slash, SLASH with your sword (cuz that's the best weapon, in my opinion). In case you get pushed away, bang him with your guns as you walk towards him. Keep at it, he'll be done in no time.
3. For Echidna, well, slashing is the most effective on her upperside. And whenever, she moves out of view, hit the target button, so that you know where she is. Its spacebar, if you're doing it on PC, which, unfortunately, I did (I'm not complaining, though). She prefers staying on the move, so keep firing your guns at her, cuz you don't wanna waste time letting her "plan" her moves. Her common moves are these:
-She goes to the edge of the open area, goes around a couple of trees, and comes shooting back. The target button helps here to see where she is. When she's a few feet into the area again, jump aside. This is when she comes shooting at where you were a second back. Piece of cake.
-She stops at a place and her bottom rises, exposing her glowing "womb" (heh). The DB makes mince meat of this. Use unlimited DB combos on that "womb" and watch a huge chunk of her health bar disappear.
-She sits "into" the ground, and her tentacles shoot out the ground as vertical stalks that slap the shit outta you. Whenever she's about to sit this way, run towards her. Get as close to her torso as possible, and start slashing. Summon your demon form for more damage. The tentacles won't touch you if you stick close to her.
-She just hovers there, doing nothing, just staring at you for a couple of seconds. Here, run towards her asap. Get a good chunk of her health bar. She might start swinging her now-electric hair around. When she does this, just get over to her side-back. They don't touch you here.
She does a few other common moves that you must've found how to counter.
4. For Dagon/Bael/3rd-brother, don't really know if my method could be called "pro", but this is what i tried. Slash at his "chin" and sides, till he notices you and (most probably and usually) jumps to another spot. Shoot till you get there. Don't just hold the shoot button and move. Alternate between the two: shoot-move-shoot-move, more move than shoot. As soon as you're close to him, slash slash. Whenever he blows his mouth, be ready to jump. Just as his mouth moves downwards again, jump to the side. Any side. Its usually his 'ice' attack, but if its his air-blow, that's unavoidable unless you manage to jump to his side totally. When he disapears, slash his antennae-chicks as much as you can. Don't focus on one girl for too long. Keep switching between the two, else the other one might wrap herself around you, and Dagon's gonna swallow you asap. One more thing, whenever Dagon is about to swallow you, jump into his mouth yourself. Make it your move and not his. This way, you can slash around even inside him. The chicks give you a lot of red orbs. So keep them busy with you for as long as you can.
5. Sanctus was one big @$$#oL3!! Use the DB on the little orbs he produces to get close to him. Then slash at his force field. The colour denotes its strength. When its red, its weak. Break it. "Devil-bring" on him as much as you can. Just as he's about to get his shield back, summon your demon form and BIG SLASH!! He falls down. Don't waste time, devil-bring him as much as you can. Put in a couple of slashes too. Its easy once you get the pattern. Halfway through, he starts doing long red power-streaks at you. Watch the timing and jump just before he rushes at you. He does this twice in a row, so don't lower your defenses yet. After the second time, jump behind him, slash. Red Rose is a blessing.
6. The last part where you destroy the Savior with your DB was a little puzzling. I lost 4 parts of my health bar, before i figured out the trick. His right hand is easy. Just jump-dodge befre he smashes, and use the DB on his hand. His left hand is a bit tricky though. It'll take a couple of tries before you get it. This hand, unlike the other, doesn't stop anywhere near us, stealing a good chance of using the DB on this one too. What you need to do is, just as he pulls back his arm, jump, use the DB. If timed right, the devil claw will hit the hand just as it's about to smash you. This totally bangs him, and his head drops down in front of you. Easy-peasy, use the DB on his head. Game over.
7. Most importantly, get into the mission, make sure all the cutscenes are over and the character is properly in your control, and then SAVE YOUR GAME!! Make sure you do this at the start of each mission.
Again, all this is only my version. Someone else might tell you different. Styles change, yknow.
Cool concept, the way you can play when the credits are going on. Hats off to CAPCOM. Nice one, dudes.
And like most other good movies, they had to end the movie hinting at a sequel.
Its 2.33 am. Watch a little South Park and go to sleep. I will, I mean.
And someone asked me today:
How many Neha Bhasins does it take to change a bulb?
The right answer supposedly was:
Five. One to force the bulb to change itself by boring it, one to wish she had changed the tube-light instead, two to do an attempted hot dance and scare people of fused bulbs lest she returns, and one to assure us how well she knows we enjoyed.
Adios.
I'm only 17, btw. Sick.
