Characters matter but we don't need an overabundance. I just want 100+ so we can get all the important characters, this is my preferred list:

Can we please start using the spoiler tag for character lists? I mean, it's not too bad right now and I do like to do them too, but I don't really want to have to scroll through a lot of them in the future to see if there is anything else of interest in the thread.

That character list is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too small.

And oddly exclusive. No SSJ3 Goku? No Krillin?

If I had my way, I would love for there to be two games to this release. One focusing on the main series characters and the Trunks' Special, the Bardock Special, Episode of Bardock, DBZ Movie 3, DBZ Movie 5, DBZ Movie 6, DBZ Movie 7, the JSAT Special, Battle of Gods and Neko Majin Z. The focus being on having the characters from the Z portion with the most relation to Freeza's organization or the Jinzoningen, and since the game's main draw is team battles, include the henchmen so that you can have decent team battles that reenact the show, films or specials.

Spoiler:

The first game doesn't cover the 28th Tenkaichi Budokai, that's been shifted over to the second game that way you can include GT Trunks and Goten with their outfits from the end of Z. Characters like Vegeta or Trunks wouldn't have unnecessary separate versions. For example, Trunks' sword would be part of his costume you select before battle. If you pick an outfit where he is wearing it, you can use it, and if he doesn't, then you can't. Vegeta's scouter/prince self as well as his Maoji incarnations would be costumes as well (including the appropriate dialogue shifts too), that way you can feature what-ifs like in the Budokai series where he can go Super Saiyan while in the Saiyan Arc armor.

The second release would get just as much development time as the first, even if they need to have someone do a HD collection of the Sparking games or something to buy time. This release would focus on GT and the movies that didn't make the cut last time (as well as a potential Heroes exclusive section just in case the developers wanted to delve into the avatars). Bebi infected versions of characters, besides Vegeta and Janenba, are available as alternate costumes.

I wanted to avoid having too many of the same character. I figure no Super Saiyan Gokuu would never happen, so I trade out 2 and 3 to make room for lesser used forms. I didn't include Kuririn because Tenshinhan has more potential for interesting techniques and I wanted to keep the roster small. If Trunks didn't have the sword I wouldn't have included him. Hell, I might as well trade him in for Bora with Spear since I've already included Gotenks.

Wobbuffet · Post by **Wobbuffet** » Wed Jun 26, 2013 10:26 pm

Heck, this is an anime game. I want fanservice over gameplay.

Makaioshin · Post by **Makaioshin** » Wed Jun 26, 2013 10:29 pm

I guess ideally I'd just like the main heroes and most of the main villains/organizations represented in at least one form(transformations don't matter). I'd take Blue and Garlic Jr. over Dabura and Butta. Also Towa.
But this is Battle of Z so I expect more Z focus and a few more henchmen and stuff to utilize the 4 vs 4 gimmick. But I just hope as they throw in characters like Freeza Solider, Goten, and Salza that they try and do what ZBR/SDBZ did and give the characters a unique style.

Removing SSJ3 wouldn't happen either. Krillin is more important than Tenshinhan.

Okay then, remove Super Saiyan for Gokuu and give him Super Saiyan 3. Remove Super Saiyan 2 for Vegeta and give him Super Saiyan 3 instead. Whee.

SSJ Goku is also necessary. It's an iconic form. SSJ2 is the only one you can remove and get away with.

Makaioshin · Post by **Makaioshin** » Thu Jun 27, 2013 12:26 am

They gotten away with no Super Saiyan 3 before. I'm not sure how his ideal game is but Super Saiyan could be the default or alternate costume while the rest are part of special attacks.
That isn't something that would happen in this sort of game though.

Big Momma · Post by **Big Momma** » Thu Jun 27, 2013 2:10 am

I wouldn't have a problem with a March '14 release. It goes with the usual schedule...the game is released 7-8 months after its reveal.

Hellspawn28 · Post by **Hellspawn28** » Thu Jun 27, 2013 2:15 am

The March release date is most likely a place holder. We will most likely hear a full release date by next week.

Gamespot says that it will be released in december 2013

I hope its released in 2013
