Dante is the main character, and his beloved has been taken to hell for reasons which cannot be revealed.
I knew something very, very fundamentally wrong would happen when someone appeared to make a game out of Dante, but seriously? That is the silliest twist ... . I lack words.
He follows her using his aggressive combat abilities. His main weapon is a death's scythe, which makes for beautiful combos. He also has a holy cross that can be upgraded but generally gives off holy light and can perform mass damage. It's incredibly fun to use, and very powerful.
It sounds hilarious, but I am not sure I would be able to take it seriously.
You have relics that can make you stronger, and the option to upgrade to either good or evil ways. There are choices to absolve or punish people, and both ways alter your alignment. You also meet history's evil people in hell and you can either punish them or absolve them, which places you in interesting moral conundrums.
I can only imagine.
The monsters are creepy, and the game can be rather frightening. They did a good job of creating hell, and you'll be reminded of Fear or Doom 3 if you play the game - especially at night by yourself.
Will you be reminded of Dante's "Inferno" at all? At any time?

It was the Christian imagery that turned me off, oddly enough

This is why it's ironic that EA mocked the idea of Religious games, and used it as PR for the game.

I think it's that the game takes itself so seriously. I LOVE Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter
