Maybe not a limit, but a cooldown for Supers/Ultimates eliminates spam. I knew from jump Super Saiyan would only cause a spam fest, and the proof we saw is worse than I thought. That Death Ball is crazy if you don't block.

Sidenote: Is there an online leaderboard in this game? If not, it gives me an excuse to not partake in the spamfest that is online battle.

A limit wouldn't be good IMO, but a cool down period of sorts would be a pretty good way to balance the use of certain moves. Really though, I'm not too bothered by people spamming attacks, because...well...that can happen in any fighting game. Hell, even the freakin' AI in JoJo's All-Star Battle tend to spam moves against you.

Can you choose the level of difficulty in this game?

All these Youtubers are saying they're spamming because it is too hard. Especially Bardock's Scenario, which you can't even let Bardock dies. The problem is that I saw a few Youtubers with advanced level passing it in lesser than eight minutes, without such difficult.

The only Youtuber I've seen with above average skill in this game is Chaospunishment. Everyone else I've seen know the controls... and that's it. :yawn:

The game get's harder as you progress. You can't just speed your way through the story and have it be an easy ride. You're gonna need to level up your stats to become stronger, that's where mentors and parallel quests come in.

Know him. Though I saw only his video about Super Saiyan Bardock when they "found out" he was in the game. Lol.
I'll watch a couple more videos of him, then.

Correctomundo!! The story mode may only be 15hours but that's depending on how strong your CaC is, if he's not strong it'll take longer than usual.

Which leads me to the next question, I don't know who are those mentors yet. Do you know all of them who are available?

Thank you. Going just by the name, I choose Gotenks. It's the only one I really like in this list. Though, of course, in a strategic view, I'll see who could be my mentor.

He's a lurker now (his last appearance was during the late summer. About 6 months ago). We talk via PM now. He drew me a Goten image :)

Is this like Ultimate Tenkaichi where you can train under everyone, or is it more of a 1 master strategic kind of thing? (I probably butchered the phrasing of that lol)

All-Star Battle is a really shitty fighter, though, so that's not a good example.

Spamming's always possible to some extent, but it's a sign of imbalance if spamming is too easy/effective. Good fighting games don't make zero-skill strategies the strongest.
