"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2" Official Discussion Thread

[SingleFringe&Sparks]

While I don't think we need so many saiyan transformations, I don't understand the last point. I can make Beerus and Whis, Mr. Satan's bitches if I really want to. In Xenoverse 1 I can make Demigra my bitch which Goku couldn't seem to do. You already said we're pretty much Mary/Marty Sue's, which is right. The story at least so far, hasn't really made the time patroller the sole hero who does everything for everyone..

How exactly do you make a game centered around the dependence on the protagonist, balanced with the rest of the series universe and power level balance? The only way I could see it, is if somehow the CPUs were always levels above you in story mode or that you play as other characters in certain moments while your character is on the side or AI controlled. Beyond that, I don't know how they couldn't make your character a Mary-Sue to the narrative.

Wow, people are actually pissed that their character is stronger than their opponents... It's like nobody ever played Final Fantasy or other RPG, because your character simply is the strongest character in the game universe.
It would be somehow silly if not. I just don't understand that at all. Maybe, sometimes, venture off on a little trip out of the Dragon Ball in-universe realm and the world will be great again

This is a fighting game.

Yeah, with RPG elements, you have to cope with that

Yeah, clearly you havn't played Final Fantasy or most RPGs

I believe that tells much about anime gaming communities in general.

Leaks should be dropping either later tonight or tomorrow, so keep your eyes out for something.

I hope we get it tonight.
I seriously hope we get something good!

[Anime Kitten]

Something I noticed from PQs in the first game was SSJ God Goku typically had x10 Kamehameha, while in his only moveset, it was plain ol' Kamehameha. I'm hoping we get the x10 as usuable on SSJ God Goku this time, because the red fits so well with Super Saiyan God.

As for the leaks, I'm still hoping for more original stuff and less custom character stuff.

[supersaiyan DbZ fan]

This has been something a noticed long ago with XV1 but only remembered now
Has our AI teammates in any PQ, free battle or story mission ever fired an ultimate attack?
I have never seen it happen.
I want to see the co-op AI as well the opponent AI use all their abilities.
AND GIVE US A GODDAMN DIFFICULTY SETTING!!

[Fresh Prince]

I hope we see Hit, Vados and Champa as wishes for Gathering the Dragon Balls.
Hit's skills would be Melee skills that involve the timeskip technique, he'll have one skill which is that finger beam we saw in the Dragon Ball Super opening.
Vados and Champa could have their techniques from Dragon Ball Heroes.
One little thing I hope for SSGSS Vegeta I hope he has God Final Flash, the two colors together look good.

[Captain Strawberry]

I am constantly... speaking thriving on this

Let's hope, but don't count your chickens before they hatch. Remember, last month we had to wait till release.

This happened a lot. Goku being in SSJ while wearing his dogi without the emblem was done a lot, yet ingame it's replaced with SSJ2. Also a lot of times you fight him while he's usually SSJ has him in tattered clothing, which doesn't make a lot of sense either (sparring with him is a major example).

Yeeeeeeeah that's only through gameplay. Story wise, your CaC still doesn't come up to Lord Beerus and Whis' level (the cutscene where Evil!Beerus charging his attack in story mode is an example since you see your character panicking).

Plus, with Demigra you would of died without help. And Beerus himself saids you are not as strong as Goku or Vegeta, but you would be getting close.

You're also the only reason SSJ3 Goku went down from Demigra's staff attack showing that you're not to his level, and yeah if Toki Toki didn't step in you'd be screwed.

[Captain Space]

Okay, but, whatever the character's power as far as the story says...again, this is not at ALL dependent on race. Like...s/he is at the same closing-in-on-Goku/Vegeta-but-not-there-yet level whether a human, Namekian, non-super saiyan, or Super Saiyan 2. So given that, adding more saiyan transformations wouldn't make your character automatically on/above their level any more than being a Majin or whatever would.

[Captain Strawberry]

No Xenoverse 2 news????

[Lord Beerus]

No Xenoverse 2 news????

Nope. It's been quiet recently.

[sintzu]

No Xenoverse 2 news????

Yet.

Super's chapter leaked today so someone has the magazine which means it's only a matter of time before we get the new info (assuming there's new info).
