What really makes me dislike DMC now is that they're so influenced by Japanese anime, whereas DMC1 was more American and... well... I could go on and on about this but I've done so enough on the GameFAQs forums. What I can say though is that DMC1 had far more personality than the other games. All you need to do is replay DMC1 first, and then replay DMC3. Do not pay much attention to combat, rather let yourself be immersed by these two games outside of combat. You'll see what I'm talking about.
