I think the main problem with Devil May Cry is how poorly it has aged. The cameras are the worst part of the game, it’s too clunky and very annoying. There’s little variety in enemies and bosses, they’re all very easy to defeat and even repeat (sometimes you have to face the same boss up to three times). It’s a bit difficult to understand what's happening in the game at times, so the story isn’t the best, but that doesn’t mean it’s bad either. The game is short, but it also becomes repetitive and frustrating due to its poor mechanics and bad environments. Even so, for 2001, this must have been a great game, and it’s clear that it was a prototype for Resident Evil 4.
