Given how close we are to release, I'm surprised there hasn't been any dub footage or a dub trailer yet. Given the concept of the story mode, I can imagine the Funimation cast having a lot of fun with it and I also want to hear Android 21's dub voice now we've heard a bit of her Japanese voice.

Speaking of voice acting, are these weird player character ciphers going to have actual voice lines? Or are we just the silent internal monologue while the characters speak like normal? Because if it's the former, then I love the idea that it's 2017 and Masako Nozawa will be getting yet another role in the franchise. She's already played Goku, Gohan, Goten, Turles, Bardock, Gotenks, Gogeta, Vegetto, Goku Jnr, Goku Black, a bunch of "what-if" fusions from various games and now...me in Goku's body.

Is this what the Ultimate edition is referring too when they say we get 11 songs from the Anime?

One thing bugs me about Android #21. She went as far as to genetically or mechanically turn herself into a super being, but she didn't bothered to fix her eyes. :)
Or is she one of those persons who wouldn't need glasses, but still prefers to wear one for the purpose of looking more intelligent or artsy?

I'm just hoping that pack is available to buy as DLC outside of the Ultimate Edition.

The red energy ball is also similar to Kid Buu's... Or Android #13's.
That was my first thought too.

I don't know what to think, with that hair she could also be #21 in a different outfit, but from all possiblity of endless choices, and with her scientist gimmick in their mind, why would they give her a persian outfit like that, which looks like something a Majin would wear?
On the other hand, if it's a female Majin, I'd rather have one with a more unique design, then one with Kid Buu's clothes, and I know (or at least hope) that ArcSys is smarter then that, and would do something new, like how they (and Toriyama) made #21 different, and not just female Dr.Gero.

So many cutscenes without even a glimpse of adult Gohan or Videl. I really hope this isn't one of those situations where he's not involved like Goku Black's arc. ( I don't really need Videl to be in but if she was in a cutscene or something I'm sure it would indicate Gohan's inclusion)

Or it could be that Gohan isn't announced yet? :P

They don't even showed any story-specific about teen Gohan yet... I wonder how they will incorporate him into the story mode. Maybe as a flashback, or some of the dark clones will be teen Gohan?

Anyone else notice that the villains and Heroes are teaming up when Bulma is getting attacked?

PC, the version with DLC chars, without the music pack.
But I'm still waiting if those specs are the correct ones...

I'll probably get the PS4 version first (thinking of getting the collector's edition 'cause that Manga Dimensions statue looks mighty nice), and nabbing the PC version down the road on a Steam sale or something.

Just the base PS4 version for me, which I'll pre-order sometime early January probably. I'll get DLC on it's own most likely.

PC, and Switch if it comes out for that. Willing to pay for this game twice because it's honestly something I can see myself playing for the rest of my life.
It'll be between the "FighterZ" edition and the "Ultimate" edition, depending on what that Commentator Voice Pack brings. If there is even a single commentator that says "Tenshinhan" instead of "Tien", I'm grabbin' it.

There's no way to tell because somewhow Nappa, Ginyu, Freeza and Cell are also there. Doesn't make sense have two different Gohans in the cutscenes so if Ultimate Gohan is in, one of them will be unlockable.
A world without Dragon Ball is just meh.

That might be where the three different stories come in; one where you "are" Goku, one where you "are" #18, and one where you "are" Freeza. Maybe one of the storylines will feature grown-up Gohan, while another features younger Gohan. One features Gotenks, another features future Trunks. Who knows.
