"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE" Official Discussion Thread

[TheAldella]

Looks like we get to explore the dragon ball world and fight instead of just fighting. Hopefully the story mode has the depth that b3 had. Best story mode in a dbz game in my opinion. What do u all think?

I pretty much just want em to make Budokai 3's story; using the open world and skill collecting, etc, but to replace the mouth flap-less bubble dialogue with cutscenes.

anyone else buying the ps3 or 360 version of this game because they don't have a current-gen console? please tell me i'm not alone.

You are not alone, I will be purchasing XENOVERSE for Xbox 360.

I want a combination of B3 and BT2's story mode. Either they would go with the original or every character having a story along with what ifs and secret bosses.

New Dragonball Xenoverse Interview.

According to that laugh, I think we'll see this game in 2019, guys.

That laugh was *You find out our secret release year*.

Strange interview. The guy barely elaborated on anything.

"So you're harnessing the power of the next gen consoles?"
"Yes, we're harnessing the power of the next gen consoles."

Understandably they can't say anything but then I wonder why bother giving interviews in the first place if you're just regurgitating buzzwords and no elaboration.

Pretty much every DBZ Game developer interview ever...

[hulkty]

That laugh during the interview says it all.....

Guys check out this video. It explains how the mystery character signifies the return of character creation. If you pay attention to the Ultimate Tenkaichi gameplay where Bandai used their own created character they gave their character red hair with the same hair style that this Xenoverse character has. Take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1kRPdwInw0

[DarkPrince_92]

Ah. Didn't even make that connection. It makes sense I suppose. A lot of what they're saying is ridiculous though... they need to stop grouping all the different developers's games together and trying to compare it to Xenoverse.

playable giants anyone?

[Xeogran]

playable giants anyone?

I find it sad that no Next-Gen game has that implemented yet. It's like the hardware can now support full-sized Giants but we just don't deserve them.

I blame Online and 2vs2 for that.

Budokai Tenkaichi 3 had online and giant characters

No. Just, no. I don't want this. Not yet. This is a new game, potentially the first in a new series. With traditional Dragon Ball game development patterns, they should focus on building a foundation for everything else and making sure it works well before they try to toss the giants in there.

TheDevilsCorpse has got the right idea here, let's get a game that plays well for the first time in years and then maybe on another game or sequel of some sort we can worry about these out there playable characters. Consider ourselves lucky we gained back a publisher that won't make us play rock, paper scissors *shutters*. That is all i have to say about that. But i'm not saying that playable giants won't be cool some day down the line, i'm just saying that it's not my (hopefully not the publishers) priority at the moment.

you guys are right; they should definitely wait and see if this game is a success. i wasn't thinking.

That's alright, i see the appeal in what you're saying. It's just that we've had so many shotty games the past few years that a few of us have the priority of a game that plays well in the first place over any other possible things, this doesn't mean that what you're saying isn't a fun idea or anything and i see how with the new technology maybe they could create truly giant and functional playable characters. It's just really not a priority here for this release.

Please check your posts before making them. With the preview function, there should be no reason broken posts are being made. It interferes greatly with the normal flow of conversation. Thanks.
