Dante's Inferno (Video Game) | comment |
The Inferno part of Dante Alighieri's The Divine Comedy is one of the most well-known, well-referenced pieces of work today. It described in great detail Dante's vision of what hell would be like, and in doing so invented many of the tropes associated with Hell. This has led to several film adaptations, theme park rides, and a video game adaptation, which is what this page is concerned with.Rumored and announced midway through 2009 for a release date in February 2010, the game is about Dante, a fresh veteran of the Third Crusade, chasing after the kidnapped love of his life, Beatrice, through the Nine Circles of Hell while tearing the place — and the demons who inhabit it — to little pieces. Unlike Dante Alighieri, this Dante is muscle-bound, an expert magic wielder, and (after the first boss) carries Death's own scythe as his weapon against Hell's armies. As he descends deeper and deeper into the Inferno, he must confront his own sins, war crimes, and his family's past, and eventually faces off with Lucifer himself, who has kidnapped Beatrice in order to wed her and break free of Hell.A DLC titled "Trials of St. Lucia" was released on April 29th, 2010.Around the game's release date, an Animated Adaptation of the game was released on DVD and Blu-ray with some differences in storyline as well as a Comic-Book Adaptation that's mostly told from Beatrice's perspective.A sequel to the video game was being planned, although with the closing of Visceral Games the future of the franchise is now in limbo (ironically). | |

Psychosexual Horror: The circle of lust is where sinners are punished for the deadly sin of lust. The Temptress & Seductress of Lust were once women who lived lives full of Lust, so utterly consumed by it that they were corrupted into demonic creatures with a huge tendril emerging from their sternum to the navel down to the vagina, seemingly an unholy fusion of their corrupted genitals. | |

Canon Foreigner: Bella Abati and Alighiero di Bellincione, the historical Dante Aligheri's mother and father respectively, were not featured in the poem. Francesco is straight-up Original Generation, as the real Beatrice Portinari never had brothers, only sisters. Though he might have been based on the real Dante's own half-brother, Francesco Alighieri. | |

Phlegyas and Malacoda are also naked, the former due to being hundreds of feet tall and the latter due to being able to light himself on fire, though Barbie Doll Anatomy is in effect for both of them. | |

The Sociopath: Lucifer invented evil by rebelling against God, and has decided to spend his eternal imprisonment trapping any soul he can in eternal torture. He uses his shadow to corrupt people on Earth, sadistically taunting anybody who opposes him. The ending reveals that he has learned nothing from his imprisonment, and simply wants the entire universe gripped in his wretched claws. | |

Crucial Cross | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_1a2636ee | comment |
Crucial Cross: Dante fights his way down into the depths of hell to rescue his beloved Beatrice from Lucifer. As the game progresses, Hell's influences begin to corrupt Beatrice, and she loses her faith in Dante's attempts to get her back. Eventually, she gives up entirely and tells Dante off. Feeling completely hopeless, Dante tosses to the ground the cross that she gave to him before she died, an instrument he's been using as his primary weapon this whole time. Only when she sees the cross, she realizes what he's been through, and the archangel Michael comes to free her from Hell. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: In the original Inferno, Dante's sins he has to repent of include forgetting his dead muse in favor of living women, being arrogant about his poetry, and being afraid to walk through Hell. In the game, he's an adulterer who had sex with a slave girl while his wife fought off seducers back home, a mass murderer who kills hundreds of civilians, and a damned so self-righteous that he would let the Devil free of Hell before accepting God's judgement. To the extent that the poem's Dante is also the author, it doubles as a pretty extreme example of Historical Villain Upgrade. It is also noted that Dante is essential to Lucifer's plan because he is guilty of every single sin in some major capacity, implied to all have been committed during the Crusade he partook in. Some of the damned are said to be there for much more severe sins than in the original poem. For example, Thais The Harlot was originally sent to hell for flattery which most people today would regard as Disproportionate Retribution, so here she is damned for using her beauty to make men fight each other. | |

Crapsack World: Earth is a war-torn mess of chaos where the vast majority of the population are damned, with the percentage growing by the day. The Inferno was initially simply a prison for damned souls, but Lucifer made it into his own personal torture pit where all else is in constant pain. Paradise does exist, but we never see it. | |

Adapted Out | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_33d5b7f2 | comment |
Adapted Out: As the original poem featured a large cast, not all of them could be included in the game. Some notable omitted characters from the poem include Geryon (a monster re-invented by Dante into fraud personified, cameoing in the game only as the statue holding Francesco's boss arena), Odysseus/Ulysses (one of the only side characters mentioned in all three canticles), and Caius Cassius, Marcus Brutus, and Judas Iscariot (who are gnawed on by Satan in the poem, though the last is referred to by way of the thirty Silver Coins that can be found throughout the game). The lower circles get increasingly glossed over. The harpies, hellhounds, centaurs and Minotaur in the seventh circle don't appear, with only the latter two being represented by statues similar to Geryon. The eighth circle's Malebranche don't appear with the exception of their leader and Fraud's torments are also represented by statues. The different sub-regions of the ninth circle are skipped over entirely in favor of the imprisoned giants on its outer edge and a crumbling ice bridge that leads directly to Lucifer's prison in the center. | |

Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_372bc105 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism: While the game overall retains its source material's Idealism, however, it is deliberately scaled back here. One good example is that whereas Christianity is portrayed as a good influence in the Divine Comedy, here it shows that it did not have a completely beneficial effect on humankind by depicting the bloodshed brought about by the Crusades (including having the protagonist take part in an unprovoked killing of slaves). The cynicism is further dialed up in Animated Epic in which Satan gives a monologue in which he proclaims that the physical world is "Another Hell", that "humans are its demons", and that by implication of allowing The Evils of Free Will that God Is Evil. | |

Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_3d1d5186 | comment |
Bubblegloop Swamp: The circle of Anger is as much of a dark, gloomy swamp as it was in the game's source material. Some of the hateful souls condemned to this circle can be seen fighting each other in the background while others reach out of the mud to try and pull Dante in with them, though neither has any effect on gameplay as they are purely visual effects. There's also a point where you have to fight off several demons before the platform you're on sinks into the swamp. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: Every time Dante rides a Beast or Phlegyas. The only enemies that are a threat while Beast-riding are the Beast Tamers that try to retake control of the Beast. Everything else dies. The only challenge is deciding on how you want to slaughter your foes. Roast them with firebreath? Turn them into pancakes with your fists? Literally stomp on them? Eat them? It's a tough choice. Also, between Dante and Death after Dante steals Death's scythe... and cuts him in half with it. Turns out to just be a delusion Dante is having. | |

Artistic License – History: Suffice it to say, this game has historical inaccuracies. The introduction shows Saracens on war elephants, which were not used during the Third Crusade. In the game Dante is shown committing the Massacre of Ayydieh single-handedly, killing numerous women and children without Richard the Lionheart's permission. In reality Richard the Lionheart ordered the execution, and there is debate as to whether any non-combatants were killed there. Additionally, they were not killed in prison; they were killed on a hill outside of Acre. | |

In order to turn Dante into an Action Hero who single-handedly kills every demon ever, Beatrice has been reduced to a passive object of desire who gets captured by the Devil and can't do anything because of Dante's sins. | |

Sinister Nudity | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_5a24baf5 | comment |
Sinister Nudity: Lucifer commonly appears as a bald naked, spindly wraith made of black smoke (though no genitals can be seen through the fog). Temptresses, the demons of Lust, are naked except for a vague skirt around their waists. They also sport massive wounds running from their stomachs down to crotch level; as their introduction demonstrates, this wound occasionally splits open to reveal a huge, suspiciously phallic stinger. Cleopatra, the boss of the Lust Circle, is also topless - on top of being a giant purple demoness with Unbaptized Infants crawling out of the mouths where her nipples should be. The Gluttons are all naked - but are so morbidly obese and filthy that it's impossible to see any genitalia. For added revulsion, they also sport mouths instead of hands and More Teeth than the Osmond Family. In the finale, when Lucifer is able to manifest a physical form no longer bound by Cocytus, he takes on the appearance of a typical devil complete with goat's legs and hooves... and no clothes, so his big floppy penis is on full display. | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: The various sinners Dante encounters in the book are all there, some appear as statues and you get the option of talking to others and you can either forgive them or smite them. They even say a lot of the same things. Virgil's speeches are mostly faithful, if a little altered. Even the original political satire survived mostly intact ("In these popes and cardinals, greed suffered its excess"). The design of the Nine Circles in-game is actually quite accurate with Alighieri's descriptions (except for the level of Greed, and the changes there are understandable as the original version — people pushing boulders around to symbolize their drive for fortune — wouldn't make for very interesting gameplay). About the only thing that's really different is Dante himself, and the whole "Famous pagans as lords of hell" thing. Also, a few sources of controversy, like Mohammad in hell, and crusaders in heaven, have been taken out as well. The Gates of Hell. The Gate itself was modeled after Auguste Rodin's Gates of Hell, which was described in Dante's Inferno to have a sign at the top that read a poemnote Through me the way to the suffering city; Through me the everlasting pain; Through me the way that runs among the Lost. Justice urged on my exalted Creator: Divine Power made me, The Supreme Wisdom and the Primal Love. Nothing was made before me but eternal things And I endure eternally. Abandon all hope - Ye Who Enter Here. about Hell. The sign itself was removed from the Door and is instead spoken by Charon (who is also half-demon half-ship and not a boatman demon). | |

Central Theme: Atonement.

In stark contrast with Satan, who atones for nothing and seeks to only obtain more due to still being unwilling to repent. | |

Sequel Hook: Don't forget, the Inferno is only the first canticle of Dante's epic. After defeating Lucifer, Dante arrives at the base of Purgatory and is briefly reunited with Beatrice. He tears off the cross on his chest and casts it aside. As he begins his climb to redemption, the cross transforms into a snake, which sneaks away as Lucifer's laugh is heard. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: In-Universe, everyone damned to Hell are stuck there for eternity and cannot change to become good, which is why it would be bad if Lucifer broke out. In gameplay though, Dante is free to absolve sinners left and right allowing them to go to Heaven, no heavenly grace required. At the same time, Dante's interaction with Virgil as well. In the original work, Virgil was always at Dante's side as the ladder is guided through Hell, here, Virgil, at least during gameplay, vanishes and reappears at various points all throughout Hell waiting for Dante to offer guidance. However, there is a brief cutscene where Dante discovers his mother in Violence where Virgil is shown physically walking next to Dante. Therefore, the above instance could perhaps be justified due to the setting's more action-oriented redesign. | |

Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_639cefd2 | comment |
Go into the Light: The battle against Death features a light in the background that looms ever closer as Death's health is whittled down and ultimately engulfs the battlefield, followed by a fade to white. Double Subverted as he initially seems to have survived the encounter, but is ultimately revealed to have been Dead All Along. | |

Alighiero's Signature Move is Sins of the Father, a barrage of crosses that move back and forth for repeated homing hits. He also tries to bludgeon Dante with a giant version of his cross necklace, the gem at the center of which teaches Dante the first level of Sins of the Father. | |

Because her boss fight would be so cool looking. She shrinks down after Dante beats her fight and attempts to kill him with no success. | |

The Lost Woods | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_6b7c9f96 | comment |
The Lost Woods: Dante first sews the tapestry into his chest in the Dark Wood described at the beginning of The Divine Comedy. The place is made into a proper level in one of the game's DLCs, wherein Dante chases the assassin through a series of portals through the ruins and trees of the forest. The portals form a number of simple puzzles based on the direction of the moonlight. The level creates something of a Continuity Snarl since Dante has the cross and Beatrice appears in her ghostly form. The Wood of the Suicides is the middle section of the Circle of Violence. Here, the souls of those who took their own lives are imprisoned in trees that resemble the bodies they left behind. In places, the trees will drop glowing fruits that Mind Rape Dante and any nearby demons into taking their own lives. The harpies and hellhounds that populate the forest in the source material are nowhere to be seen. | |

Adaptational Early Appearance: In The Divine Comedy, Satan, though discussed intermittently by the protagonist and Virgil during their journey through the Nine Circles of Hell, is not seen in person by the poets until they reach the last circle at the very center of Hell. In this game, Lucifer plays a far more active role and is first seen on Earth taking Beatrice's soul before Dante has gone through the Gate of Hell. | |

Adaptational Badass | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_736d791f | comment |
Adaptational Badass: Despite the fact that he fought with the Guelph cavalry in the Battle of Campaldino, the historical Dante was more of a poet than a warrior. In the game, he is defined by his military background and ability to fight his way through hell. Lucifer also qualifies, despite being an Adaptational Wimp at the same time. In the original poem, he's nothing than a gigantic, helpless idiot trapped in the Ninth Circle who barely interacts with Dante and Virgil. Lucifer is not Hell's chief lord, but Hell's chief prisoner. Here he's a much more active threat - he kickstarts the plot of the game by claiming Beatrice, delivers quite a few scornful insults about Dante's wickedness that are completely correct, and concocts an elaborate Batman Gambit to free himself from the Inferno that nearly succeeds. | |

Spared by the Adaptation: A weird variant: Dante has the ability to either absolve souls in Hell (after which they presumably go to Heaven) or damn them (meaning they stay in Hell). In the book, he certainly has no such power (or any magic powers, really) and all the people he meets in Hell are stuck there. | |

Adaptation Explanation Extrication: The game changes the setting to the year 1191 as opposed to the presumed 1300 of the original poem, but the developers overlooked that some historical figures featured in the poem were either still alive in that year (e.g. Saladin who lived 1137-1193 but is found in Limbo (in the animated movie at least) or weren't born yet (e.g. Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II is found in Heresy, but wasn't born until 1194) and thus shouldn't be in Hell yet. | |

People remind him of this frequently. However, he subverts this during his actual journey through Hell, as he is there for an unambiguously good cause and begins to realize how horrible of a person he really was in his life the further he goes down. | |

Foreshadowing: Early on the Lust level, Cleopatra pretty much gives away Lucifer's plot while gloating to Dante that Beatrice's part in this game will be so small. Every time you descend a level of Hell, you find a series of links and chains in your way that you need to break in order to go forward. You hear Lucifer's laughing every time they are broken because you are getting a step closer to freeing him from his prison. When Dante finds own his mother in Hell, she tells him that it's too late for them to be saved. This indicates that Dante is Dead All Along. | |

Another individual worth mentioning is Alighiero. The historical Alighiero di Bellincione, the father of Dante Alighieri, was a respected banker and, as far as is known from surviving documents, a decent parent. The character of Alighiero presented here is an avaricious, lecherous, and abusive bastard who gets worse when he is turned into a demon who really crosses the Moral Event Horizon. | |

Cross Attack | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_aeadbfa3 | comment |
Cross Attack: Partway through the tutorial, Dante obtains Beatrice's cross, which emits cross-shaped blasts of holy light to form most of the game's ranged attacks. Alighiero's Signature Move is Sins of the Father, a barrage of crosses that move back and forth for repeated homing hits. He also tries to bludgeon Dante with a giant version of his cross necklace, the gem at the center of which teaches Dante the first level of Sins of the Father. During the final battle, Lucifer will counter cross attacks with bursts of inverted red crosses. | |

Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence: Pretty much what happens whenever you absolve someone of their sins and regrets. Also Dante to an extent as well; the Avenger stabbing him and then having conquered Death, Dante seems to be in a state between life and death, which may explain why he's able to pull off feats that would normally be reserved for other protagonists who are explicitly superhuman. This would explain why several beings and souls refer to Dante as a "living" creature because, in a way, he's still living, but he's also no longer among the living. | |

Run the Gauntlet: The ten-part Eighth Circle of Hell is given a video game twist by having each ditch be a room full of enemy groups previously fought in the game. Each bolgia/ditch is made distinct by adding a handicap on Dante relating to the type of fraud punished there, like having his health slowly stolen away while in the bolgia for thieves. | |

Adaptational Wimp: In the poem, Beatrice is immune to all of Hell's tortures, nigh Omniscient, and able to travel between planets instantaneously, which qualifies her to save Dante from his sin. In the game, she's Dante's Damsel in Distress Love Interest who needs him to rescue her, which was a source of MAJOR controversy. Lucifer, the origin of all evil and the creature gifted with the greatest intellect is defeated by a human too stupid to realize he's dead. | |

Some of the damned are said to be there for much more severe sins than in the original poem.

Lethal Lava Land: The circle of Greed is full of pits and waterfalls of molten gold that act like lava. Violence does something similar with the boiling blood of the Phlegethon and adds fire raining from the sky when you get to the Burning Sands. The last section of Anger has lava pits that Dante can fall into as he moves along and while Heresy focuses more on fire than brimstone, there are a couple of lavafalls that Dante has to jump across. | |

Artistic License – Traditional Christianity | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_da14a081 | comment |
Artistic License – Traditional Christianity: This game is not a good way to learn about Christianity, particularly the Catholic faith, as some aspects of the game contradict the medieval Catholic theology on which the original poem was based. One of the doctrines is that damnation is permanent and irreversible because the person chose to be one of the damned in the first place. The mechanic where Dante absolves defeated enemies of their sins or absolves certain damned individuals blatantly flies in the face of this. Many individuals are shown in Hell for specific sins, even when the circumstances of those sins would have reduced culpability to the point of making them venial. note In Catholic theology, a sin is mortal if the person has full knowledge and deliberate consent when committing it AND if the sin itself is of a grave matter. The most egregious example is Beatrice, who is shown being damned for Dante's sins rather than for her own (though her sin was wagering her soul to start with). | |

Continuity Snarl: The Dark Forest DLC, assuming it is even canonical to begin with, is supposed to take place after Dante's time in the Third Crusade and before arriving at his home. However, he has in his possession Beatrice's Cross and the ability to perform magic attacks, and he has some familiarity with Demons which he shouldn't have yet. Beatrice also appears in her ghostly form. Beatrice's presence is the only part of it that even gets handwaved with the explanation that St. Lucia is intervening. | |

Historical Villain Upgrade | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_e16217f8 | comment |
Historical Villain Upgrade: Justified, since they work for hell and probably have gotten powers because of it: Cleopatra is a 30-foot tall succubus who rules over Lust. Marc Antony is a 10-foot-tall warrior wearing golden armor that looks like it's made out of other shades. Another individual worth mentioning is Alighiero. The historical Alighiero di Bellincione, the father of Dante Alighieri, was a respected banker and, as far as is known from surviving documents, a decent parent. The character of Alighiero presented here is an avaricious, lecherous, and abusive bastard who gets worse when he is turned into a demon who really crosses the Moral Event Horizon. | |

Dying Dream | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_f792bc7b | comment |
Dying Dream: The reality of Dante's descent into Hell. There is no psychopomp named Death, and Dante never fought him for his scythe. He was stabbed in the back and that was the end of it. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
Dante's Inferno (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
Every time Dante rides a Beast or Phlegyas. The only enemies that are a threat while Beast-riding are the Beast Tamers that try to retake control of the Beast. Everything else dies. The only challenge is deciding on how you want to slaughter your foes. Roast them with firebreath? Turn them into pancakes with your fists? Literally stomp on them? Eat them? It's a tough choice. | |

Video Game Vista: When Dante hijacks Phlegyas, he pilots him across a long bridge to the City of Dis. Once they're close enough, the camera pans out, showing a panoramic view of the whole city. | |
