Why? Is there a cost to leaving it there?

[–] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 9 points 9 months ago

You can still buy Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition, from 2015, and Devil May Cry 3 is included as part of the HD Collection triple pack, which contains the first three games.

I'm guessing they're going to offer another bundle pack that includes DMC4 or release some other updated version of these.

Hard to care though, the Enigma DRM BS has strongly turned me off from Capcom. I'll support companies that don't actively screw over paid customers, thanks.

Because they would rather (re)sell you the game in a more expensive bundle or a remake, both of which have added "features" like DRM that makes the game harder to use.

Companies seem to enjoy punishing those who purchase their products
