Yknow, even though Nero is an odd design as a "new" character, he's done much better than i gave him credit for. He still leaves alot to be desired, but when i really looked at his skillset, he actually has about as much at his disposal as Dante, it's just a lot more concise, which is why i didn't pay so much attention before. I looked at thelack of a multitude of weapons and not the combos he has.
In other words, while he's easier to use, i retract earlier statements saying he's worse to play than Dante. Cuz in all honesty, now that i've gotten used to him, he's a fuckin blast!
