That bothers me because of completion sake but also because he is a super saiyan without all the benefits of the actual transformation which makes no sense in the context of the game. Just a really weird choice especially as Gohans normal hair and ssj hair are so similar.
But the only time we see him in his base form in the series is after he defeats Cell. Other than he-

An with Bojack not being included at least that is what I think he could secretly be in the game. There really is no need for Base Gohan to be in the game in that context so that is probably why he is in the game like that.
Nevermind you already said everything I was gonna add!

It is more because of this type of story and Towa and Mira needing just villains with no brain or thought to them he kind of fits the plot. It could give us Gohan in the orange and blue gi too which is always good. The character himself though is easily forgettable.

I hope our last few characters are Bojack, Super 13, Tapion and normal Bebi (not Bebi Vegeta). I think they could have Tagoma, Sorbet and Shisami as DLC. Another idea for DLC is to story mode missions based on anime & manga specials like Son Goku & Friends Return, Episode of Bardock and Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans. Not sure if they could find a way to fit Hero's Legacy in the story seeing we never had Goku Jr. and Vegeta Jr. in a video game.

It's nice to have the voices added in for this build. Would've hated it just being text.

I knew there would be, and I don't know why were some folks freaking out over the possibility of the voices not being added. We all should know that it was unfinished.

Oh my god Conton is bloody georgus, and flying looks like heavan after the trotting of XV1... Maybe that was their plan all along! Also, looking at the Frieza Race on that mount made me think of the possiability of us getting Frieza's bubble car.

Damn, Raditz just became much more of a dick. He just see's you fall out of the sky and just goes ''Fuck it, illing you too!" At least in the first game your charcter was obviously on GOku's side. Saiyans these days, have no class!

And uh, the way Turles is acting here seems strange. The other story previews have shown us that he desires to kill Goku, yet here he's trying to get Goku to join him (After the time atroller refuses)?

So good to know that there will be voices along with the texts now.

It seems that Raditz will be the first mission again. I just hope there will be room enough for Time Breaker Bardock and him without the mask...

So Turles gets some highlight in Saiyan saga. Does that confirm no Garlic Jr and Wheelo? I'm pretty sure Turles and Slug will be present from Saiyan saga up until the half of Freeza saga, and then enters Cooler.

They were all but deconfirmed when we saw the almost full roster. Which reminds me, I'm a bit disappointed that Mecha Freeza will most likely be excluded, unless he happens to be an alternate costume for Final Form Freeza (which is unlikely).

What I don't understand is why the game animators chose the first time Piccolo fired the Makankosappo to have the dark energy activate in Raditz. Raditz dodges the attack that he would have dodged normally without it. A much more dramatic turn would be Raditz getting out of the Full Nelson hold, have Goku eat the Makankosappo like in XV1, THEN you fight and beat Raditz.

Dr. Uiro is a huge size character. He could be a boss character.

Raditz's training

Also, I think this confirms that Conton city is on Earth.

But isn't Conton City just a revamped Toki Toki?

JEEZ this music is REALLY good! Reminds me of the golden age of Dragon Ball game music (Budokai).
Dragon Ball /Z/GT/Super is a children's show and there's nothing wrong with that.

Yeah, so Toki Toki was on Earth as well.

Would explain how they had the Earth's Dragon Balls. I was wondering about that.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

They mention one of the NPC's is one of the 5 Murasaki brothers lol. Didn't they all make an appearance in the original series? I believe he was pretending to be really fast but it was just him and his brothers?

Also Gohan's four star ball hat confirmed as a new accessory.

The Namek music is really nice and fitting, enjoying that. Also love that they're going pretty in depth. They mention the Ajisa trees a few times.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axDHKLGE1Zo This quest seems like fun, I'll enjoy playing it. It makes me wonder if we'll see Turles, Raditz or Giant Slug as bosses, I wouldn't only like to fight giant apes. Also, I think that the annoying invincibility the enemies had in some quest and during story mode is now gone, or at very least it was toned down. What I don't get is... why won't Vegeta destroy the power ball if he doesn't want to be an ape?

I'm sure we will have a Giant Slug battle in the game. I can't see them missing that kind of opportunity.
