This is the only DMC game I've played and I freaking loved it. It was only years later that I went online and found out everyone hated it

Do the enemies ever become challenging? From what I played you only needed to button mash the enemies to death. It made God of War's combat look deep by comparison.

Its not a bad game its just mediocre. Problem is some games have some seriously mentally ill obsessed fanboys and they expect every game to be a masterpiece, otherwise they will treat it as the worst fucking shit ever.

The only edgy thing in the whole series is vergil and he gets constantly mocked for it. Utter idiot

2 is probably the weakest entry in the series but it's still a fine game, and people treating it like it's Sonic 06 or something is fucking weird to see.

One of redeeming factors DMC2 was the artstyle and designs.

You know how DMCV on PC didn't get a Special Edition due to mods covering Turbo Mode and Raytacing?
How long until modders give us a DMC2SE?

I don't like 2 but it gets way too much hate and to me it feels like most of it is from people who never even played the game. It has its issues but it also introduced a lot of stuff 3 would later polish yet hardly anyone gives it credit for that.

Gameplay wise, the main problem was the balance was completely fucked. Melee attacks barely stunned enemies, and guns had comparable damage output to melee combos, so standing back and shooting was the optimum play. You could try that in other DMC games, but it would take a stupidly long time, and some enemies had counters to it. Grenade Gun spam in 1 relied on a technique that wasn't immediately obvious to most players at the time, and didn't work against every enemy in every situation.
I reckon you could improve 2 greatly by just tweaking the effectiveness of melee vs guns, but then you still have the enemy AI being shit like >>9809569 demonstrates.

The setting is good but the actual experience playing it is like a funfair mirror version of the first game's controls

Zoomers are the ones who play on easy mode and intentionally glitch the AI to "prove" the game is bad because of the epic memes.

Dante was serious in DMC, it was DMC4 who turned him into a perpetual retard, at least in 3 he was a kid so it made sense

I've only ever played DMC1.
Should I play DMC2 before moving to 3?

I'm going to be honest, 2 isn't THAT bad. It's probably the worst in the series but it's not some unplayable trainwreck, it's just a letdown after 1. I say give 2 a try, but if you can't stomach it there's no shame in stopping early and moving on to 3.

I just downloaded the HD collection and tried 2 for a couple hours. Man, I don't remember it being this bad...
