Posted 2 combos in the astral chain subreddit. Thought this sub would like it too.
Slowly getting towards the 100% taking longer than I thought because of how much I missed on my initial playthrough of files 1-11 and getting sidetracked a bit
Vanilla run (now power boost, spindash or other modifiers that put the triangles next to your time)
I've been getting more into photo modes in games lately and thought to try to get some shots for dmc5. I will definitely do the other characters at some point but I thought Nero would have some fun ones

Haven't played frontiers in a bit
I'm mid way through the tempest layer and loving the game so far. Having more fun than Mario Odyssey honestly.
Just wanted to post something different from the usually games I play since I saw that this game's demo released earlier this week.
Would say it's basically a metroidvania Cag. Combat is pretty interesting in that you have 3 "special move" buttons each having an order of specials it goes to which you can reset by finishing the basic 3 hit combo (you can fully customize what move each button has in whatever order you like). Also, pretty centralized on combo counter a bit since comboing dead enemies is the only way to heal (and it has a limit) besides save points and the longer your combo is before you reset your specials, the more damage you deal.
Since it's a demo you don't have as many moves you can unlock compared to your moveset in the practice room. So gameplay can look samey but I think the full game could be interesting with a completed movie list
Took a break from it a while back to play some other switch games. Trying to continue my 100% of the game so I spent a bit relearning the moveset. Got this out of it.
Even though astral chain definitely isn't combo centric like dmc/bayo (which I'm cool with), It's still fun to do some training room stuff when I want a break from the file 12/ campaign stuff
Why this was on a Nintendo direct instead of games fest. IDK but hey its new stuff
Here's to years of coping that Capcom sees something for this series besides the show 1/2 of us don't even like.
I know that the Norse gow games get a lot of contention on this sub (especially when 'what is a Cag?' get brought up) but I am interested in this. Especially now that there seems to put more emphasis on air combat now.
Edit: also will say if you are gonna check out the video just skip to the last 5-6 minutes if you want to look at the combat. Most of the video is just movie cutscenes (as expected since it IS still a modern gow game)
Did y'all forget about this game? I did, but since it got featured in the state of play I thought I'd bring up the trailer here
We'll get more trailers and stuff later this summer which is good.
A small part of a larger video I was gonna do just for the fun of it. I may continue it at some point but I got Cag burnout and I'm playing other games for awhile
I wanted to learn and practice how to combo heavier enemies like nobodies, hell antenoras, and proto Angelo's. Not a bad way to kill a nobody though I'm not sure if showdown would still work in a mission since I didn't exit dt when I ran out of it at the end
Side note, I really don't know why the void resets the area after the enemy dies instead of just respawning a new one.
Haven't played dmc5 in a while but i thought it'd be cool to redownload it for a bit and try some kill combos. Wanted to incorporate riot's buster attack in one of them.
Results aren't too bad though still probably mid in terms of the average combo you'll see on here. Wish we did get some more Nero combos
Just a fun way to spice up the trend a bit. Even though I haven't played many games with really bad attributes ( I don't go out of my way to play bad games) I did try to fill it with mostly stuff I played. Except for blockblasters cause I don't want malware on my computer
Also wanted to specify that the smash 4 entry is post Bayonetta release
