@ClownCortex When it comes to DMC3 and S ranking DMD I really think any costume is allowed because otherwise it would just have to be in a bonus set, even without demanding SS ranks. Also, the main set doesn't really have a way to check which costume was used as far as I can tell. The reason I say this is because the game doesn't appear to register whether or not a Super costume was used after finishing a mission, unless it's something that's hidden from the player. If I'm right about this then I believe the only ways to block the use of Super costumes would be to either have one achievement for each mission S ranked or ask that all the S ranks be acquired in a single session (which would just be completely insane). It doesn't seem to be as simple as DMC1, where each costume is it's own save. As for S ranking DMC2, I confess that I never truly tried for that long. I gave up quickly because I researched how to do it and realized that it was undeniably a busted system that didn't make much sense and, perhaps fittingly considering the game, was no fun. Not even the people who managed to do it and wrote FAQs about it were defending the system. It was just too much frustration for an already subpar game. Meanwhile DMC1 got me so hooked that I S ranked the entire game 3 times in a single day at one point. Once you understand how things work it's a very to-the-point system that's actually lenient to a reasonable degree and not too infuriating due to the missions being short.
As for S ranks, it's really just a set of requirements involving time, damage taken and orbs collected (plus some bonuses and penalties), but for most missions the requirements are not that strict and even if you fumble one of them you can usually compensate with the other two, so you won't have to be perfect and do any "no damage" or anything like that. Also, once you come back to them on New Game + with upgrades they will be much easier. Focus your first run on just exploring the game at your leasure. Besides, even if you do find that getting S ranks is too hard you can still make that challenge much easier by using the Super costume, which gives unlimited Devil Trigger. It may not be obvious at the start, but that makes one hell of a difference, even though the S ranks will still require some knowledge of what you're doing.
If you just wanna beat the set then there's no extreme requirement. If you wanna master it than it makes sense that you will have to try harder, but it's still nothing absurd. And in any case, there's even softcore mode that allows free use of save states. The set already encompasses a wide skill range all that considered. Sometimes people freaking out is just a result of them obsessing over mastering the set on Hardcore mode while getting overly anxious. There are still options for a more casual playstyle and this set really doesn't go overboard.
I also take my time in my first playthroughs by the way, and this is indeed what I recommend for this game as it's much more productive to focus on exploring, and therefore gathering blue orbs to increase your maximum health, than to jump straight to S ranks. Not to mention that there are weapons that you will gain as you progress and have access to at the start of a second run, plus all the upgrades you buy with red orbs remain. Even if you were a pro at the game it would still be recommended to make your first run on a brand new file be focused on those upgrades as trying to S rank the game from a fresh character is just overcomplicating the task for no reason, unless of course you were choosing to do a challenge run with that constraint. Also, don't let the thought of having to do multiple playthroughs discourage you. This is the kind of game where once you know what you are doing you can do an S rank run and have your completion time display about one and a half hours easily. It's not some slow slog, it was made for replayability, like the old school Resident Evils (which this game has a lot of in it's DNA actually), but maybe even faster.
To be honest, I also think that the main completion achievements should include Easy as well for those who just wanna beat the game and move on, even though I don't consider Normal to be extreme. I'm pretty sure that when this set was made the site didn't actually have the "Beaten" system, so this could be a legacy of that time, when there wasn't a standard recognition that a player beat a game that they didn't master. Perhaps with the new system it would have indeed been more appropriate to include Easy for the main progression achievements, as much of a beginner's trap as it may be for those that intend to carry on with NG+.
And don't worry, I can rarely write few words anyway, this is basically the standard for me lol. Of course, if the game ends up not being your cup of tea that's completely ok, but I just wanna make sure that you don't end up dropping it before trying due to anxiety or something like that. It would be a shame if you dropped the game due to some misunderstanding, but were actually gonna like it, so I'm just trying to make how it works clear.
And I consider myself to be like that too, I have much more stubbornness than skill, but with enough practice that stubbornness can end up being converted into enough skill to S rank DMD. Trust me, the requirements are actually lenient, if you can just beat DMD without items then you can S rank it. These two accomplishments aren't as far off from each other as people think, and both can be reached with stubbornness. S ranking Normal and Hard can sometimes even be more of an annoyance because on those difficulties the requirements are actually tighter, though they still don't require perfection. You seem to have the right mindset though, not letting people convince you that it's impossible and stopping you from trying is the first and most important step.
@unprodano Regardless of my personal opinion regarding how hard each difficulty is if you still want to try Easy first I say go for it! It is indeed a little annoying that you won't even be getting the main progression achievements, but if you like the game and decide to replay on Normal it won't take you long to get them at least, as the game is short. I just recommend not bothering too much about getting all collectibles and upgrades on Easy though since they won't stick around when you make a new save for the other difficulties. Do get what comes naturally to you of course, but don't stress too much about getting them all.
Also, just a heads up, if you decide to try other games in the series I remember that the third one (the one I'd recommend after this by the way, 2 is kinda boring and you can easily skip it without missing anything important to the story) uses a similar system, where you have to first reach a certain number of deaths in order to be offered Easy mode. I don't remember if DMC2, 4 and 5 also do that or if they just offer the choice between Normal and Easy at the start, but if they don't offer it them you can apply the same rule and just die on purpose a few times. However, all DMC games other than the first require you to restart from the first mission in order to switch to Easy, so if you intend to do so I recommend doing it before making much progress. They will not lock your save to Easy mode without access to other difficulties though, only this first entry does this, and they will even unlock Easy for you when you beat the game if you didn't have it already. In other words, only this particular game separates a difficulty in it's own save file, all the others allow you to do everything in a single file as long as it's with the same character.
