Former Devil May Cry series director Hideaki Itsuno has said Devil May Cry 5's pacing was all down to potato chips.
Devil May Cry is a series that is most associated with its action. Not only did it pioneer 3D action games, but it also built upon itself to create what is arguably the best combat system in any game, with Devil May Cry 3 and 5 being among the best action games. But it also packs a silly, melodramatic, yet somehow investing story into a saga of five titles, and yet it never feels like cutscenes overpower the experience.
