I wish Dimps would go outside the "safety Box" they made for themselves for this game series.

Nothing over the top, just they need expand character customization in base game and through DLC/Game Updates.

Plus Do more then [insert random villain] & [Dark Power Up] for the story mode
I agree, I would love some original game like back in the 90's with Plan To Destroy Saiyans with Hachihyakku.
Or some interesting what-ifs. Dragon Ball Online was great, bring it on, or something like Fusions. Xenoverse 1's story was a novelty and I kinda enjoyed it.
Xenoverse 2 felt a lot like a rehash and you just don't buy Mira and Towa screwing the history so much, that you need thousands of Patrollers that do it all the time, over and over and over after the first hero did it...

I'd like DBO story, in the future, with the major Z fights (and other series or movies) being just episodes in between, like Goku vs Vegeta, Goku vs Freeza and such, as callbacks to the original series, but completely new story overall.

Aaaaand, I didn't like Mira and Towa's fusion, I liked Demigra and his final form a ton more. Mira ended pretty lackluster in my opinion :(
Maybe if he had better design and didn't look like SSJ 4 Goku?

I think the Xenoverse formula could do with added RPG elements. Choices to the story, like the epilogue missions of Xenoverse 2, but have them effect the story.

I still think Xenoverse needs to fully embrace the scenarios. Go full out with What-If scenarios, like

-Frieza killing Goku on Namek and having Vegeta turn Super Saiyan
-Future Gohan surviving and what the impacts of that could be
-Buu absorbing Vegeta and Gohan and Goku using the Potara

And if they want to stick to just messing up timelines, go all out. Have us start a tutorial mission with Raditz and Goku only to have Omega Shenron show up and having to battle him with Trunks and the other veteran Time Patrollers.

Those may not be the best ideas, but I hope I'm at least getting my point across. Fusions was the best DBZ game last year because it just went nuts with its ideas. And I still play it and STILL enjoy it. I've only come back to Xenoverse when we get DLC, and that's just a couple hours and then I shelve it

I just ran into the strangest thing in a World Tournament match. Whenever the opponent hit me with a super attack I'd go into the knockback animation, but I'd just spin around in the air right in front of them unable to move at all. :? I've used Sauzer Blade before and it sure as hell didn't work like that for me.

Speaking of the World Tournament (Avatars only), I found it annoying to constantly face male Saiyans. Seriously outside of that I faced a few female Saiyans and Humans and one or two Namekian. Where's the love man? D:
Also I made 49th place.

Really? I thought female saiyans and earthlings were supposed to be overpowered or something.

It seems that will be the case, which is annoying as hell, since they made that mistake before. :|

How is completing the DLC before releasing it a mistake?

The PlayStation store updates on Tuesday, so in all likelihood it's coming on the 24th.

Again, the DLC will be released on a Tuesday, so it'll come out the 25th.
Above I mistakenly said the 24, I thought that was a Tuesday.
We will get V-Jump before the stream, hopefully it details the free update, really hoping we get Blue Goku and Vegeta in their current outfits.

Anyone else kinda tired of having these live streams? I mean it's just going to be Ryhmestyle +other youtubers and an awkward BNEI rep who all make awkward jokes and talk over the content, who are also loud for no real reason. Sorry if I'm being a bit to critical it's just that these past streams have just been lackluster and loud. I'm watching the stream to see if they show off anything new or for pack 4 but other than that i just wish they would just announce the dates instead

That's the whole point of the streams, have popular youtubers making jokes to keep the viewers entertained and inform people about the current DLC. There will nothing about pack 4. It's the BANDI Rep who always ruins it though...

That was kind of annoying during the last stream. They were supposed to debut the English voices for Vados and Champa but you couldn't hear them over Rhymestyle's constant talking.

i honestly dont get why we need previews of dlc content, just let us play them lol. This stuff is only cool for pre-release when everything is new and even then the PR is often terrible. They should handle it better to generate more hype, I remember nearly all the trailers aside from maybe the very first one being pretty lame with almost nothing new being confirmed each time.

It's basic marketing for any product, you give out snippets to get the audience excited while you finaize it.

Hopefully we hear Zamasu's dub voice. I can't wait to see who voices him.

I'm more worried about Schemmel's Goku Black than anything else. We already got a taste of it with the pre-order bonus and the uber gruff SSJ4 voice was frankly a horrible voice to go with. Goku Black is just Goku but with a smug attitude and more refined dialect. Theres no need to alter the tone or pitch whatsoever.
