Those pictures look great. Hyped for 2v2.

I wonder what the screens with Yamcha say?

Also, they said it wasn't open world, but those pictures with Yamcha look like some form of free roaming.

Not on one shared screen with characters flying off and getting in front of each other, though.

I wonder what the screens with Yamcha say?

In the first one, Yamcha's asking if he seems to be asking the Future Warrior to use Yamcha's ki. In the second one, Yamcha's saying that he's counting on him.

I'm hyped too, we don't know how the screens will work yet and so it's too early to directly judge but 2v2 sounds awesome. It's too early for people to be too critical of this game, let's give it more time.

[Friggin_Krillin]

The Screens with Yamcha letting me remember Budokai 3 and Tenkaichi 2 Days where i still was all excited about that Way of Story Gameplay. Problem in T2 was that it was too lifeless in the End where the Characters stood around like Pillars of Salt. B3 made it better in Interaction and random Encounters but just with pathetic Portraits of the Characters. At the Moment it gives me Waves of Meh's thanks to this and knowing that the Game Franchise isn't very innovative with this. Your Move now, Dimps. Make it impressive. Next Gen is able to realise it.

I don't know if anyone remembers thoseaction/adventure style missions from Infinite World... but at the top of this screen I see those little rings you jump/fly through... maybe there's more than just NPC interaction in whatever this story mode is supposed to be.

[90sDBZ]

So what are the chances this will actually use music from Burst Limit? I'm hoping they find a way to license all of the plagiarized music from past Dimps games.

[DragonBalllKaiHD]

Ok. This is definitely a RPG game. It seems they have finally let go of straight-up simulation styles and decided to do something entirely different. New history, new characters, new stages and RPG. We might finally have an upgrade version of DBZ Sagas.

Oh I didn't notice it.

Yeah they kinda look similar.

[DarkPrince_92]

I really hate when a character is in a fighting pose at all times. He's not about to fight Yamcha, so I don't see why he can't have a normal dialogue pose.

[FlpShimizu]

Being able to choose an answer that will affect the Story is a great idea. It could be underused or end as just a gimmick, but it probably will just add to the already beaten to a pulp Story Mode of the franchise.

[EXBadguy]

Problem in T2 was that it was too lifeless in the End where the Characters stood around like Pillars of Salt..

Looking back it now, yeah I agree. Though back then, I didn't really care cuz the story mode in BT2 has A LOT of replay value. I remember after beating the story, I did it again in difficulty 3, and lemme tell ya, it was HELL! I can just see it like I saw it yesterday, me playing Trunks' saga and getting beaten by 17&18 more than twice. I did that cuz I thought that I would earn some secret stuff if I beat the story in that difficulty. Those were fun back then, and hopefully this game would do the same thing too, have us choose a difficulty level and if we beat the story mode in the HARDEST level, we would earn secret prizes.

And BTW, am I the only person that hopes the story mode would be somewhat like Budokai 2? I know what some people are gonna say "HELL NOOOO! IT SUCKS! ME WANT FAITHFUL STORY!" and all that jazz, but I don't care. I for one enjoyed it. Anyway, the game's shaping up nicely, I'm just worried about the gameplay, though not much cuz I know Dimps is gonna nail it.

Do we really need the "FAITHFUL STORY" for the 20th time? Screw it.

[Big Momma]

I've already made the decision that I will not accept Yamcha's Ki when that moment in the game arrives.

[DarkPrince_92]

LMFAO. It's probably +2 on the Ki meter... virtually no difference.

[ZombieVito]

Isn't he supposed to have short hair?

[DarkPrince_92]

More hair equals more power in Dragon Ball... let him keep it. =P

Oh yes, more character hate, perfect place for that...only not.

[DarkPrince_92]

I don't hate Yamcha, he's fun to clown on. Remove stick from anus.

[Gyt Kaliba]

No stick per say, and that wasn't directed at only you (hence why I quoted both). I totally get it, but it seems that as of late around here it's become the popular thing to hate on the poor guy, so I may have mistook an honest joke for pure vitriol. In that case, sorry 'bout that.
