It's not like it wouldn't be uploaded to YouTube minutes after, anyways.

I don't really know what to expect from this upcoming segment, but given the past ones they've been showing, I'm guessing it will be more interview than game footage. That's fine with me though, as long as we get some interesting tidbits out of it.

Even if it's only a small change it's still different. They at least put in the effort to make something from scratch.

Taking the map from Xenoverse and drag and dropping it into the sequel is cheap and lazy.

It's the same problem the Naruto Storm games have where you had the same maps in game after game.

Map tweaks should be the least of concerns.

I would much rather the focus on making the game be given to the story, adding new characters, stages, outfits, customization options, techniques, etc., rather than revamping older stages that are only going to be vaguely different in the first place. To each their own I guess, but...

Not the Budokai nameks. Each one of them(minus Infinite World) looked different. As for the topic, I sorta agree on both sides. A few stages could use a few tweaks here and there like the City stage having a more grittier look, but at the same time, most of the old stages being the same is no big deal, as there should be more than 5 new stages.

I love the stream chat, the stream is going oon about how awesome Rocket Leauge is, and the chat is simply screaming for X2.

Do they mean training moe as in where you basically have a fighting dummy to test moves on?

TheDevilsCorpse was right about it being more of an interview than showing more gameplay footage.

But training mode; oh man, awesome.

Apparently there's a lot of stages for local multiplayer, as in recreated(?) for the mode.
