He's a story related character, so probably just play the Beerus portion of the Story Mode.

If Towa, Mira and Demigra aren't actually in the game and are intended to be DLC, they need to be FREE DLC (like the 2 main villains in Hyrule Warriors). it's ridiculous to make them this important to the plot and not playable when we have the other villains like Freeza, Cell, Buu and even Appule (though Mike loves this).

So you can't play as SSJG Goku outside of story mode?

What kind of fuckery is this? :x

To unlock him... Characters that are related to Story Mode seem to be unlocked by playing it. Since there is no GT story, that's why no one has yet to obtain SS4 Goku or Super 17, etc. (As far as I've seen.) We don't know how to get them.

DLC is just a tool, there is nothing inherently wrong with it. It is up to developers to use it right.

I was talking about the Towa, Mira and Demigra news being "eeeeeh" not the pre order news. I'm happy for that.

Xenoverse is actually 1080p 60 fps offline on PS4 but is 30 fps online to support cross play.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

So, I missed out on most of the stream and was gonna watch it from the beginning...

...and now I'm not.

As far as the roster, the Japanese stream didn't even show the extra slots and now they're there. And we know there will be even more characters for whom there are no slots to be seen. I'm not worried about Towa, Mira or Demigra.

Alternate costumes change character's outfits, skills, and sometimes even names. I'm fairly certain all the teen Gohan versions, including Saiyaman, are on the that single slot. We've seen in him in the trailers transforming into Ultimate the was Super Saiyans transform in the game, but it's probably only available in the orange dogi.

DB Xenoverse is not a DBZ simulator with fighting elements, it's a semi competent fighting/action game with DBZ simulation elements.

I'm all for the Time Breaker trio (well, technically four because of Demigra's transformation) being secret unlocks that just pop out of nowhere once you meet the correct conditions. But given the other stupid choices they have made, I'm not going to assume they're in just because that seems like the only logical thing for them to do or whatever.

I knew I was missing someone, I just couldn't remember who. SS4 Vegeta will probably slide in before or after Jaco then.

I dunno about you guys, but for some reason, I'm not that mad that the time trio are unplayable bosses. I'm kinda used to that method from companies. Heck, I was okay with it with other fighting franchises too like Street Fighter, Blazblue, etc.

So..yeah, if it turns out that the trio aren't playable, I won't be that mad, though it would be a bummer. Hopefully they'll be DLC.

Does this mean there is hope for Towa, Miira and Demigra being playable?
