I bought the season pass back at launch but I have no interest in playing as SSJ Red. I'll just stick to SS1-3

It seems like developers were initially going for Manga Art Style for DBZ: Kakarot.

Wow, that looks great. Especially the word being finally in manga/series art style and not 3D render resembling the world.Koitsukai wrote: Tue Mar 31, 2020 2:45 pm https://twitter.com/DbsHype/status/1245053292385689600

I have personally a little uncanny valley feeling with manga being animated/playable, as for me the anime look is more familiar and better, but the area design look as both manga and anime and it is shame, that we have not seen it like that in a game yet.

Only dubs that matter are DB, Kai, & Super. Nothing else.

Still no date for the DLC, which is understandable. Too bad a Golden Freeza/SSB DLC will end up coming by the end of the year, if ever.
Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread
Well, the fact that they haven't released the music pack yet catches my attention. If it' was just a "radio" of sorts, they would have implemented it in less than a week, two weeks maximum.
But the fact that it's taking so much time to just make music tracks available, makes me hope there's indeed a careful placement of them throughout the gameplay sections and cutscenes. This would make a lot of people play all chapters all over again with the extra music and songs as a "revamped", more complete score for the whole game.
But then, it would be nice to know it for sure and have an actual release date, because we don't know if we're supposed to keep playing it and posting videos or "wait for the better version" music-wise.
Of course, we have to hope all those extra songs and music will cause no problem on YouTube, because it would be ridiculous to secure them (just like all video game music) given the numerous streams and videos.
If they do cause problems, we have to hope there's an option to turn the pack off/on to favor streaming and sharing videos (which already requires to transfer the recorded video to a PC and THEN from the PC to a platform like YouTube, how ridiculous to be so protective of something that will easily end up online anyway).
If it's not the case and it's just a "radio", it should be ready to go right now, and even should have been available for weeks.

Ends with the same teaser, but it also has a page about the DLC, saying that the three DLCs will be two boss episodes, the first episode being Beerus and Whis with SSG (and presumably the second episode will be Golden Frieza and SSB) and the third DLC being a story arc.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread
I hope the fight with Beerus happens on Earth and not on Beerus' planet.
The third DLC might be Broly, following the movies, or they might go for the Black arc (the stages are there). The thing with Broly is that it isn't an arc, is just a fight, a very long fight.
I don't think we'll get the Champa tournament or the ToP because of not seeming like an ideal game for a TB. Also, if we get the Champa tournament and not the ToP it would be sort of weird, the ToP is much better but both involve a lot of new characters and some new forms like Sign and UI. Although I might be wrong and a tournament might be just perfect for this game.
My bet: Goku Burakku.

I dunno about Res 'F', but I really don't think they're adding Battle of Gods. Nothing thus far has shown Goku fighting Beerus on Earth.sangofe wrote: Thu Apr 02, 2020 12:44 pm So they're adding battle of gods and resurrection f, not dB super?
Both of the first two DLCs have been labeled "original episodes", and with the first one taking place on Beerus' planet, my guess is that they'll be about Goku and Vegeta's training between the films.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread
Holy shit I just saw that trailer, does it mean that they are adding BoG arc? I really hope they continue with Super to be honest, especially since they set that up at the end of the game when Goku says something like "I wonder what strong guys are out there in the universe" (hint hint: Beerus, Hit, Zamasu, Jiren, Broly).
Akira Toriyama, DBS vol.4 joint interview with ToyotaroAt his core Zamasu is good like Shin, though I guess you could say he was so fastidious that it backfired. But you know, for this "Future Trunks Arc" you had to depict Zamasu and Trunks' inner conflict, right? If this was back when I was drawing the manga myself then I doubt if I could have done it. I mean, I'm not very good at depicting the characters' psychology on the page. So this all came together because now I only have to think up the story. [...] On my own, I doubt I would have been able to express Zamasu's fall to the dark side.
Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread
It's more that they seem to be adding BoG and Res F as just boss fights to take on rather than actual missions with cutscenes and quests and such. The story arc DLC we can expect to be something like the arcs we got in the game, just smaller, though whether that'll be original, super or movie based, we don't know. Closest we have is datamining.sangofe wrote: Fri Apr 03, 2020 7:09 amOh. Really.

I think so, but we won't know for sure until it's released. Nobody seems to be translating the magazine ads.sangofe wrote: Fri Apr 03, 2020 7:09 am Oh. Really. So not even Battle of Gods, or F, or Super, but original content?
Another interpretation is that this is the game's super short alternate take on Battle of Gods, but that's... less interesting. Goku being on Beerus'/Whis' home turf suggests to me that he's there to train, and we never did see Goku and Vegeta acquiring SSG on their own.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread
From what we've seen so far, this DLC is not Battle Of Gods. Despite adding characters from this film, it appears to be a training DLC. It will add a new transformation + new scenario (Beerus planet) + new training menu + new skills and attacks + a boss battle against Beerus, but it will not tell the story of the film. That's why it's being called '' Boss Battles episodes ''.
Perhaps in the '' new story arc '' that is in the season pass, they will retell BoG and RoF, but these episodes don't seem to have that goal.

I think there's a chance we might get a completely new story, maybe even one supervised by Toriyama. He invented #21 for Fighterz which turned out to be a big hit, so maybe they're going to do it again here.TheSaiyanGod wrote: Fri Apr 03, 2020 9:13 pmPerhaps in the '' new story arc '' that is in the season pass, they will retell BoG and RoF, but these episodes don't seem to have that goal.

Card game?? Noooooooo
Ehh it’s free content. I’d prefer movie content like garlic or cooler.
