The one question of DMC4 2009-01-21 21:18:06


Me and probaly everyone else that has played the game probably has the same question: Where the fuck did Nero come from?!


If .hack games are just games within games, then what do the player's neighbors think when they are screaming and yelling?

When a mommy and a daddy love each other very much....

That's what I would like to know. He looks a little like Dante, and the game passes some very subtle hints of a connection between the two.

Hopefully when the next one comes out, Nero will still be playable and they tell more about his backstory.

He is somehow related to Sparda, and thus Vergil and Dante, but specifics aren't known.

Yeah, that's a pretty popular theory. Since Nero is much younger than Dante, it's more likely that he descends from Vergil or Dante than Nero being a third son of Sparda. Also, when Dante lets Nero keep Yamato, Dante says to Nero "Gotta keep it in the family."

I think it's pretty safe to say that Nero will be back in DMC5, since there's still a lot of mystery about him. I think Vergil will be coming back as well.

Plus dante was all mentoring to nero for some reason,like he knew they were related somehow.

I don,t see Vergil having a son, he's all about power and all, ONE THING IS SURE, Vergil is the demon possessing Nero.

I predict that in DMC5 Vergil will take over Nero, and try to take over the world by using another of the so many doors to hell, I mean god.

Seriously, Vergil takes over nero, you heard it here first.

Nero is the son of Dante as a one night stand many years ago.

DMC 5 might tell us?
I can only assume he's Dante's cousin, or something. Half-demon cousins are cool.

Well one possible answer could be that he was a 3rd Son Of Sparda Nero didint grow up in a proper family if i remember correctly i think he grew up in a orphinage untill he met Credo and Kyrie wh looked after him like a brother if anyone remembers the first fight with Sanctus he said "I must Salute a person who carries the blood of Sparda" so maybe for some reason Sparda hid him somewhere for reasons We HOPE are answered in DMC 5

Another theory is that He could be Vergils Son

but it also might be possible that Nero Is a reincarnation of Vergil which is why he can control Yamato

Raincarnation is impossible, and his arm changed one day, so he wasnt born like that and he hears the voice of Vergil in his head, so he is clearly Posessed by Vergil, this could also be what Sanctus meant.
