"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE" Official Discussion Thread

[EA575]

EDIT: It says "At last Xenoverse will be playable" in the upper right. What do you suppose that means? A demo? Will the game be "done"?

Just a playable demo at Jump Festa, I suppose.

That scan looks incredibly fake.


I mean, I believe it, and that stuff looks awesome. There's just something about it...

It's not fake. Trust me..

I know, I just said it looked fake. And Dark Prince is right, it's the character art that looks weird to me.


I specifically said "I believe it" so people wouldn't quote me saying "It's not fake!" or stuff like that...but I guess I wasn't clear enough.

Holy cow! An animation for Xenoverse as a part of Dragon Ball story? I'm really hoping that to be the case, not part of the opening.

I'm hoping it's both. A nice, animated opening, followed by at least an animated intro to the story.
(I would love an entire new ~20+ minute special, but it seems unlikely.)

We can see Towa and Mira on Namek (if the sky is a giveaway) in anime form. Maybe well see Trunks tangle with them a few times resulting in him going to Tokitoki where the Kaiojikai summons us.

12 years later and they have finally made a video game worthy of Dragon Ball. It really took them this long to create something that could be potentially better than the original Budokai.

ehm hello? Tenkaichi 2 and 3?

Different strokes for different folks.

I wish there was a better image to view of God Goku released. The SSJ4 models looked really clean.

I hope it has Hironobu Kageyama on the opening theme. I'd jump at the first oppurtionity to get the game no doubt.

That Flow band is alright and all but they don't scream "SHONEN"... at least not the same level Kageyama does.

[Super Saiyan Swagger]

Oh cool! They made an anime to explain the story, that's neat. I'll definitely preorder this game though I'm not sure whether to get the Trunks Time Traveller edition or just preorder the normal game which pretty much comes with everything except the Trunks statue (which looks really cool by the way). I have high hopes for this game.

[JulieYBM]

Wow, animation! I can't imagine who is available to direct or animate the thing, though. Maybe we'll luck out and somebody sent the project to a good sub-contracting studio. I can't imagine Yamamuro Tadayoshi has had the time to work on this project, so it might wind up looking somewhat good! I just hope we don't wind up with a bad director, like Ueda Yoshihiro.

[donkeyjack]

THANK GOODNESS

[Chuquita]

Now you have me looking forward to it! *_*
I want to see some non-Yamamuro DB animation! OuO

[TheDevilsCorpse]

Yes, they announced the animation now, but could this not have easily been worked on, and even finished, before work on Revival of F was really getting started? I mean, don't get me wrong, the less Yamamuro the better. I just think it's best to not set yourself up for disappointment.

All that looks interesting and fun, an "evil" type of Dragon Ball universe sounds great. Anyone think that's Frieza from ROF?

[TheAldella]

So what inbetween forms are confirmed? Cell? Frieza? ....Goku?

[TheDevilsCorpse]

No. Not even close. I don't see what would even give anyone that idea. They would be making a bigger deal of it if it were.

So what inbetween forms are confirmed? Cell? Freeza? ....Goku?

Goku, and all Saiyans, have whatever forms they should have from the series. SS, SS2 and SS3 are all in the game as transformation skills. God Goku is included as a separate character, as is SS4 Goku and SS4 Vegeta (preorder based).

1st form Freeza, True form Freeza, 100% Power Freeza...maybe Controlled 100% Power Freeza?
Perfect Cell, Super Perfect Cell...maybe Controlled (Super?) Perfect Cell?
Freeza and Cell's forms are different character slots, not transformations. The controlled forms, if playable, don't have any further details right now. Could be more slots or alternate costumes? Who knows.

[SSJ God Gogeta]

Oh god!!! It's starting!!!!!

[nato25]

lol. What stage is that ? Is it actually near the water where the Goku and 17 fight took part for a bit ?
