Dose that mean you may have to actively enforce some of the dark elements of the story a well as the good? Will you have to kill Future Gohan to save history or at least stop Trunks from trying to save him?
Probably, we might also have to prevent Goku from saving Krillin on Namek, Prevent Gohan from killing Cell after he spits out #18 and maybe stopping Goku from helping Majin Vegeta fight Buu.

That may be so, but the franchise still remains the best seller every year by a wide margin since 2009, with the exception of 2013 when Grand Theft Auto V was released. Every video game that has ever gone up against Call Of Duty in November has lost. Not even Fallout 4 could dethrone it. Xenoverse 2 being released in November would be a suicidal move. Remember what happened to Raging Blast 1 and 2?

I'm pretty sure they're planning on an early 2017 release like they've done with their other anime games.

Announcing a game early is what most companies do in order to get fans hyped up for it.

Look, all I want are:

1. Throw out that damn RNG with the item drops. How well you do should determine what you get.
2. Get rid of Tokitoki City, or at the very least have it be one giant area instead of 3 mini areas that require loading when you get into another.
3. Better ability balance
4. For God's sake, make the grinding stop. Make level acquisition actually reasonable.

If those aren't in, I'm not getting this iteration.

Now for the toppings:

1. Super Saiyan hair should actually animate and not just become your normal hairstyle, but with gold.
2. More customization. Let us design the faces instead of just combining pre-made facial assets.
3. Levels should not matter in player vs matches, or at the very least that should be a separate mode.
When will it be Ledgic's time to shine?

I hope the AI is better. I also think the idea of giving other characters their own outfits would be cool. For example, you can have Vegeta wear Goku's orange gi or have Piccolo wear Cell saga Saiyan armor. I love in RB2 when you give characters halos and scouters. I want to see more of that type of stuff in XV2.

mfw when they'll probably have Ayres voice Cooler

It's bad enough he ruined Frieza by making him sound like an effeminate gay Englishman.

Who voiced him in the movie also voiced him in RB2 even though Ayres was voicing Freeza.

Freeza's Japanese voice actor voiced Frost so Ayres might voice him if he's in the game.

Andrew Chandler will likely return as Coola. I do wonder if Frost shows up in the game, who will voice him? I have a feeling that Christopher Sabat will voice Hit.

It's ok. Don't worry, the grandma chain smoker voice is no longer around to make Freeza unable to be taken the least bit seriously.

Which Christopher Sabat himself said was "basically if you're mother tried to do a bad guy voice."
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

So, think since last game we had Takahata101's Nappa voice as a option that Xenoverse 2 will have Lanipator's Popo?

I hope we do vs battles easier instead just walking to a place in the main hub world. Just have it on the main menu for once.

I agree early 2017 would be a better time. More room for improvement and it's not like we're empty for 2016. We still have that Fusion game.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

But Fusion is a minor game, it's for 3DS. Just as Xenoverse is the major one and Extreme Butoden the minor one of 2015.

And maybe this announcement was made when the game is almost complete, not always an annoucement is made when the game is partially completed.

Not date specifically yet. But it's set to be released this year.
