Really, if you want sequel, you have to support XV2. Yeah, it's kinda of a scam, tu support product, that is not to par with expectations and frankly, it's like what Infinite World was to Budokai 3(And I enjoyed it a lot).
But people will be pissed by XV2 and will end like Force Unleashed 2.
this is just not true.
XV2 is a decent sequel content wise.
and there are things we still dont know about.
More of a Dimps' update in my opinion. Like Saint Seiya Brave Soldiers and Soldier's Soul were. Soldiers' Soul had updated combat system, new story mode and content + new characters from the filler Asgard Arc.
It totally flopped commercially.

I'm excited.

Pretty happy with the roster. Except for Chioutzu missing and Uub. Where is Uub?

But, overall, pretty good.

Complaining about decisions like this i totally get. Having 3 Videls in light of other missing characters is a little crazy. But hey, more good characters will come with DLC

Ya know I would've preferred 1 slot for Videl and just give her like 6 outfits and moves like before. I did like they included her B2C outfit. I'd like to see Videl in her DBS outfit with hair. Those're her best looks. Frankly when she had big hair and pigtails it was kinda ugly. Videl looks much better with shorter hair.

As far as Chouzu, I feel if they were going to have him, they'd have to give us a reason for him appearing in certain arcs outside of dying to Nappa. It would be nice to go back to Early-Mid Dragon Ball, fighting them in the 22nd Budokai and encountering King Piccolo and his minions. That would've been a better place to start off the rookie time patrollers.

One good thing about all these character slots is that modders can replace the time breakers with missing characters! :)

What absolute bollocks. Why do we need three versions of a character that will ultimately fight the same way? It's a total bloody fucking waste of character slots in the roster. This decision reeks of padding.

The worse thing really is that I'm not annoyed that they're only a handful of new characters that's completely fine. I'm annoyed that they make variants of a character an entire slot as oppose to putting them under the variant slots of said character. Like roster as is, is completely fine to me but just too messy.

I'm getting bad flashbacks to Tenakichi 1 in how they managed the roster. It was terrible in that game when you wanted to the pick a character. It was all way more complicated than it needed to be.

The game isn't even out yet and already everyone assumes we won't have enough. I honestly don't understand.

I guess we won't get a Villainous Mode (not the new version) Goku Black since he can't be controlled.

Would he even have white in his SSJR form due to the new time breaker power up?

Wait, what? Is this really the case? Two Videl slots, three when counting Saiyaman 2?
If so, that's both disgusting and a character modder's dream. Modders will change the Time Breaker (the controlled) character slots for sure, and if there are near-duplicates, they'll get used as well. For console players it's completely useless, however.
I have faith someone will find slots to mod (Maj)Uub, Adult Goten and Adult Gotenks into. Those three are my top wishes for character mods (though a very unlikely EoZ DLC would be better).

He probably would, yeah. But I doubt he can be controlled. If Demigra's divine magic is unable to control Goku, then I doubt Towa's normal magic can control Black. Seeing as Demon God Towa certainly won't be in pre-DLC (if even DLC).

Didnt expect the Beta to have so many features.

The Closed Beta will include:
- Character Creation/customisation
- Conton City
- New Story Missions
- VS Mode
- Parallel Quests
- Expert Missions

See you soon in Conton City !

I'm most excited to see what they added to the CaC mostly in terms of hair and stuff. Bamco provided a code and I'll have my full impressions from the beta once I get some good play time with it.

Depends, does Black have God Ki? Because I'm pretty sure that even in Rose Trunks can still feel his Ki.

Maybe so; I haven't watched a subbed episode in a long time. Still, just regular ol' Villainous Mode Black would be cool to see. I'm still holding on to what I predicted earlier:
I'm calling it that towards or at the end of the story, we'll get a single Super Future Trunks VS Black mission.

My beta is still locked for another three hours, once I saw this post I had instantly checked to see if I could get in.

I really wanted to try out 16, but hey, at least top tier Saibamen is playable. So I can't complain too much
