After recently completing both of these games I have to say that the reboot of Devil May Cry bested Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow 2 in the battle to save mankind.
Whereas Castlevania felt heavy to play DMC seemed light and easy flowing. The gameplay was great and not too complicated. Also I managed to follow the story while I got a bit lost with Castlevania at times. Or maybe I just zoned out, who knows?
I prefer the new look of Dante to the older white haired version. I know some fans were disappointed but I think it worked out very well. I believe the designers were right to give Dante a fresher look as it was a reboot.
Upgrading your abilities is simple too. You simply earn enough souls and select which upgrade you want. The upgrade system was much simpler to use than Vania 2 and presented more clearly.
The soundtrack was pretty good too ;)
This isn't a personal attack against a Castlevania, it's a good game. I'm just comparing the two as I played one after the other and DMC was the more enjoyable experience.
I just hope the next DMC is just as good and the next Castlevania improves which I think it will :)
