"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE" Official Discussion Thread

Why Saiyans have no tail in this game?, the only way to get one is using saiyajin armors, I think that's cheap.

So people won't freaken spam questions about why we can't go Great Ape, Golden Great Ape, and SSJ4...probably.

People will ask redundant questions anyway. Its a headache when people keep asking how many characters/stages will be in the game when they never ever had a concrete answer. The tail issue is a specific objective gripe.

The simple answer to what the tail could do; would just be an aesthetic option. Them being attached to the armour is worse of an alternative for the fact that any non-Saiyan character that wears the armour will have the tail instead of just letting sayians have it optional.

Close enough I suppose. I can't wait to hear what kind of voices we get to choose from for these too.

It would be awesome if only you could assign your backstory based on your race, and had some alignment options for multiple battle ending possibilities but its most likely going to be very linear with your character, if not Mary-Sue by definition.

Voice wise, I really hope the dub voices wont be as god-awful as the ones used in UT.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

Yeah, I kinda forgot to pay attention to the last few videos, but judging from the female Majin clothing one, all races will have the Saiyan tail if you pick an armor that has it equipped.

Just checked the Freeza Clan video too, and despite already having a tail, they still have the Saiyan one wrapped around their waist. Seems more like cosplay now than actually dressing your characters in a battle jacket.

I have an idea how to make your problems with Dragon Ball Xenoverse go away. Grab a fluffy blanket and get some hot chocolate and watch an episode of the Great Saiyaman silliness.

Sorry, it seems that you have been critical of Xenoverse lately.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

I just wrote like 3 fairly good sized paragraphs two days or so ago on how I think Xenoverse is one of, if not my most favorite game out of the franchise, despite it not even having been released. I can only repeat myself on how I like that it's revived DBO concepts and all that so many times before I start beating a dead horse. So if I see new things that interest me, in a good or bad way, I'm going to give my feedback on it. I can't help it if there have been more disappointments recently, but if you don't like what I have to say, then just ignore me.

[Saiga]

Yeah, the way they've handled Saiyan tails is frankly weird. I do still prefer it to UT forcing a tail onto you... but I guess this still forces a tail onto you, if you want to wear battle jackets. Seems very silly.

[DragonBalllKaiHD]

No, it's all good. I have always enjoyed your neatly analysis on DBO on general and its concepts integrated into a new video game, be it positive or negative. It's also helped that you're are the DBO guru.

I have been meaning to create a fan-manga based on DBO with Time Patrol Trunks as its main protagonist, so I may need some of your inputs.

[goku the krump dancer]

Haven't posted much myself because I see that TheDevilsCorpse and myself are more or less on the same page with this game.

I did reserve it the other day.. Mostly for Vegeta.

The transformation thing I can get used to but all the create a character nonsense is really bothersome. Especially sense it's such a huge part of the game. Not to mention the lack of over the top finishers smh.

That said.. The story mode and gameplay seem to be good enough to decently out weigh the cons and make the game enjoyable overall. Making it the best same since Raging Blast 2 if not since Tenka'ichi 3.

Still cheap.

[Gyt Kaliba]

Yeah, can't say I'm much liking the idea that we automatically have a Saiyan tail if we put on the armor options. That should really be something that we can toggle on and off in the Saiyan creation options, along with if we want it wrapped around the waist constantly, or let it all hang out like Goku always did.

Would anyone else like to see the xenoverse story turned into a movie? Though maybe not with the CaC but with just Trunks.

They already made a special OVA for the game.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

The Kanzenshuu translation clarifies that the animation only covers a very brief portion of the story, presumably with a little montage at the end of other things throughout the game (like possessed Freeza, Cell and Buu). As I doubt they could keep up the first person perspective for the whole thing in order to hide the avatar character.

Dragon Ball XENOVERSE will feature an original animated sequence at the start of the game, which will depict Trunks’ decision to summon the player character via Shenlong. Towa, Mira, and the Kaiōshin of Time are also seen in the screenshots provided.

Is it possible to remove this yellow target and arrow seen in the fights ?
kkkkkk Feels like I am always kicking the hell of a sonic ring instead of properly fighting someone.
It is just not nice man.

I understand it is important for those 4x4 battles.. well actually I don't.
I can't recall these kind of fights in dragonball. Sure they plan the fights sometimes but mostly
it is always one on one strenght battle. Heeey I remember something that fits.. Saibaiman fights!
But it was a LOT of saibaimen out there. Like, 30 or so!

No good..

[KentalSSJ6]

So I had a thought/worry over the story mode. All the promo material for customs shows us the red haired fashion disaster in all the events and cutscenes. Part of me is worried we will be restricted to a Saiyan male for the story mode. For example we have a scene where Freeza throat grabs you. What if you made your character a short child? Would Freeza just grab the air above you? What if your too large as a Namekian? Is Freeza going to grab your chest?

[TheDevilsCorpse]

I wouldn't worry. Dimps puts forth a good amount of effort into these things. I'm sure they've probably coded in a variable for each size body type of the races.

[KentalSSJ6]

Hopefully. The worry is brought on by some of the design choices with these outfits. Saiyans not having tails unless its battle armor they wear, etc. Just makes me think how much effort they went into cutscenes and such.

[BlazingBarrrager]

I honestly don't care if the tails are part of the armor or not. If I like the armor, great. If I don't, still great.

Costumes for Male Majins:

By the way..., in part 6:33 of the video you can see some big fat tails.

[nato25]

Those costumes look pretty good but really who wants to play as a fat majin, or fat character in general. I predict it easily to be the least played race.
