Black? I thought Uub was from the DB equivalent of India.

I mean, he's from a poor village & he's definitely not black, since his skin tone is more brown than black.

[nato25]

Yeah the preset thing XV has going is really flawed. Plus all the other forms as separate slots is just stupid.
For the sequel, you should be able to be able to start out in any of the forms and customize the moves you want.

Furthermore, where is the mode where you can control up to 5 characters in one battle ala Raging Blast?
You can choose AI teammates but where is the fun in that? It's like this game really just wants you to MAIN one character, despite a massive roster.

The 5v5 fights from BT2/3 and RB/2 were great

Hopefully we can swap characters in xv3 like storm 4 added. Would be great. But probably won't happen coz I don't think they'll bother being accommodating for things like when characters are in different areas.

Guys, is the new DLC worth it?
I do not play the game at all nowadays... it is pretty old now, played all the content, sometimes I just hop in after half a year to play in versus where I miss the AI plaing more randomly and transform. Fu missions were fun, but plaing it with all the 20+ characters is a chore to go trough, so I will probably never finish it and the last PQ were so damn hard, that I simply lost interest.
I do not play Online either, as the gameplay is bad online and doesn`t amuse me like in Injustice, MK or FighterZ.

So as a DB fan, is the new DLC a must have? Are the characters fun to play with as I am not a fan of Ribrianne as character?

Thanks a lot

I haven't bought the past 3 DLC, so I'm likely not the right person to say but personally I don't think it's worth it. It's definitely not a must have either.

The last one has Ribrianne, SSBE Vegeta and God Vegeta. Ribrianne has a nice set of moves, but the Vegetas are AWESOME.

[EXBadguy]

Just get Ribrianne and SSG Vegeta. SSBE Vegeta in this game is like a Majin Vegeta 2.0 and looked like a rushed mod job. Now I don't like Ribrianne but I gotta give credit where it's due, her moveset is unique.

[SaiyanKingMike]

I know this is probably a no, but is there any way to get CPU characters to transform? I love having dream matches within the versus mode offline but it gets old not being able to have characters transform.

[Jackalope89]

Not to my knowledge.

[Zelvin]

I haven't played much these days. Mostly because it's not worth it. And no, I don't feel any of the DLC is worth it. It's overpriced. Pretty much has always been overpriced for fractional content. Adding God Vegeta and BE Vegeta should've been an update and not separate characters. Hell, making SSB and SSBE separate transformations is just dumb. That'd be literally like if they decided to make SSJ, SS2 and SS3 separate transformations and you had to equip the specific one you wanted.

Again, this is why we need XV3 soon and we need it to be a much, much more improved game than this. PC modders have already practically done the job for them. I mean, I don't think we should have the Majin 21 bit or the Tuffle one, but the modders still made these things awesome. And made the hair transform with the character. And made Saiyan tails not static objects. They even improved the SS3 hairstyle! I mean seriously Dimps, stop being lazy.

Modders also gave us Toppo. And Broly's other forms. And loads of other stuff. Which is pretty much killing any reason to keep a console when the PC version can always be improved for practically nothing while gaming companies keep digging into your wallet for minimal additions.

There are scores of improvements that need to be made. And so far, no news about XV3 as far as I know. They're only tossing DBZ: Kakarot at us. And it's nothing different. And no word on when or if DBS is coming back soon. So while the fanbase starves for content, they dripfeed DLC at a markup. I'm frankly just tired of it. I want them to stop supporting XV2 so everything can get lumped together and gotten easily on a good steam sale.

If you think u are gonna like any of the characters, then yeah, go for it.

[ZeroNeonix]

IMO, the DLC that features Fu (I forget the number) is definitely worth the price. It's the beefiest of the packs, with a branching storyline, which changes both based on player choice as well as which mentor you currently have with you. Fu is also a very entertaining character. The twist near the end is hilarious, and very Toriyama-esque.

[The S]

I just realized Paikuhan isn't in yet either. That seems like a weird omission.

Eh, not really. A filler character that only popped up a few times? Yeah.

As opposed to some of the randos who made it in?

[SupremeKai25]

What are the chances that they add more characters from Dragon Ball Heroes? Like maybe a Mecha Zamasu variation for Fused Zamasu.

Yeah i mean this game has Champa and Vados playable for no reason.
Pikkon might not be the most relevant character but he is overall liked in fanbase and deserves to appear. They should also add Majuub.

[ZeroNeonix]

I'd say more official characters have a higher chance to get in first, but we got Fu and Super Saiyan 3 Bardock, so it's not impossible. I just think Heroes characters are probably on the lower end of their priorities. And I'd expect to get Cui before we get someone like Android 21. lol

[Scsigs]

Yeah i mean this game has Champa and Vados playable for no reason.

No reason? When they were put into the game, they were amongst the newest characters in the franchise & didn't even have English VAs yet & weren't in any of the video games yet & Beerus & Whis are in the games, as well as the fact that they included levels based on the story arcs they appeared in from Super.
*Insert clip of Bill Burr saying "no reason".*

What is your favourite fight of Champa or Vados? Oh wait... Yes, no reason. U6 Tournament missions could exist without them because Cabba, Frost and Hit were already in game and they, unlike Champa and Vados, actually FOUGHT in this tournament.
Beerus and Whis are completely different thing. They are main characters much more relevant than fat Beerus and female Whis. And Beerus was actually main antagonist. Their appearance in this game is totally understandable. Champa and Vados are just waste of slot. Them being in game before Dabura, Buuhan and Baby is a bad joke. And i don't see how them being new characters means they should be added in game. Toppo was also new and he still didn't appear in game.

I mean, Toppo's also a character who doesn't actually fight, just makes his opponents sweat to death, & is terribly written because he's pathetic & a character you're meant to laugh at than feel something for.

When it comes to Champa & Vados, yes, them being new characters IS a valid reason for them being in the game. If you're a video game company that has a current game out for a franchise that has an ongoing series, you put characters that are new & have combat potential in the game. And, really, it's not like Smash Bros where the director claims that there are only a certain amount of slots available for DLC characters. Considering there are other characters that are obvious filler slots, I'm not surprised, especially since when they came out, not a lot of info on the U6 arc was out, so they obviously developed them before anything else.

The hell you talkin about? Toppo appeared in the pre-ToP skirmish, and he tying with SSB Goku and pushing him into KKB. We also have Toppo fighting in the ToP against Goku, Vegeta, #17 and Freeza. I believe you're getting Toppo confused with someone else.

Are you fucking with me? I feel like you are if you're seriously trying to make Toppo into Hit.
