Bury the Light is somewhat a reflection of DT. Just like Nero is a 'reflection' of Vergil. Nero chose to "embrace the darkness" within and accept his demon side. Vergil has always tried to bury his humanity as it is a great source of personal pain and memory of weakness. 🖤

Royalties for game composers on soundtrack sales/streams needs to be addressed across the board. Some get them. Overwhelmingly, most don't. I've even known some that have it in their contract to receive them and still have to actively go after payment. Even at the AAA level

There’s nothing I need to add to this. Fans can respectfully not like something, but if you are going out of your way to hurt/attack someone you’re a bad person. Period. Do better.
The level of harassment Lily Gao has received from fans is exactly what I experienced on Devil May Cry 5 — this behavior of Capcom fandom is inhumane and predatory.
Reading this breaks my heart that another incredible talent has retreated any fan abuse.
