I'm fine with silence, because I'm very picky about the voice I imagine for my character. Most cases like in UT I didn't like any of them. Though with voices regardless, they need an audio toggle too, as in SC5 you can raise or lower the pitch of your character's voice for personalization. It would be a pipe-dream but I wish they would give the character dialogue options to at least respond to things told to you like in Persona.

Being able to select what forms you start battles in could be nice. I got real used to that.

If that's all you want, then all you want is fanservice, rather than an actual coherent story. And of course those aren't mutually exclusive; you could have a coherent story with "shine" moments! But if a story is perfectly coherent (and I'm really not seeing any compelling arguments that this one is anything but, despite constantly recurring, really poorly reasoned, attempts to argue otherwise), and you're bemoaning the lack of "shine" moments as a reason for the story's poor quality, then you're letting your thirst for "shine" moments obfuscate your ability to detect basic storytelling when it's right in front of you.

Not to mention I do think it would be cool to have Goku in his end of Z era outfit to go SSjB. I miss able to pick different outfits for characters. Not to mention, Majin Vegeta with Saiyan Saga Armor always looked awesome.

When was the last time we've even seen Goku wearing his EoZ outfit in the games? Infinite World?

After E3's sequence of letdown, they better show something more than Future Gohan, Turles, and Cooler.

I second this. Turles and Future Gohan are Cool(er) and all but I wanna see something new. Also, since I just got through watching some of the movies with my nephews, I really hope Tapion is back. Dont really care if Hirudegarn shows, up as a boss, or if he doesn't.

Cool to see Janemba will be in the game. And SS Gogeta too. Good thing that they actually changed the aura for Super Saiyan Blue. That Bardock scene was the highlight of the trailer.

My thoughts from the new trailer.

1) I can't quite tell if that's R. Bruce Elliot as Slug (which would be kinda fitting since he already has Ginyu from the former actor, Brice Armstrong), or if it's the guy who was Ladd Russo in Baccano! (who was also Oolong in Kai). Kinda expecting the former, but the latter would be a great surprise.
2) I'm very intrigued by the non-battle aspects of traveling to other times/locations in the universe. I'm sure it's not gonna amount to much, but still.
3) Super Saiyan 3 for our Time Patrollers confirmed I'd guess? Not a surprise since they had wanted to do so in the last game I believe, so I fully expected it to be in this one. Here's just hoping they also give us access to Super Saiyan God and Super Saiyan Blue - while I'd absolutely love to have SS4 as an option too, I can see how that one would be trickier. Hoping for something fun for the other races as well.

Just had a couple of thoughts based around Turles and Slug hanging out on Namek together too.

1) If they don't take this opportunity to give us a non-Ghost Warrior take on Plan to Destroy All Saiyans, I am disappoint. Hell, all the timeline chaos would be a fun way to bring in stuff like Hatchyak too after all.
2) The way they seem to be bringing in the movie villains too makes me kinda wonder if it'll be just the main villains from the movies - like Garlic Jr., Dr. Wheelo (who I will be severely annoyed if isn't included as a giant boss), Turles, Cooler, Broly, etc. - and the likes of the minions will be completely left out. While on the one hand it's understandable, it'd also be kinda sad not to see them join the party too.
