Now that I think about it, this kind of worries me. How short is the main story going to be? Is the focus being put on post-story?

I think post-story will be pretty limited at first, but the free updates and dlc will expand on that idea.

If they plan to support the game with DLC for a long time. We could get DLC with DB and Super characters. DLC can be like this:

DLC Pack 1: DB Kid Goku, Master Roshi, Tao Pai Pai and General Blue

DLC Pack 2: Piccolo Daimao, Tambourine, Akkuman and 23rd TB Chi Chi

DLC Pack 3: Champa, Vados, Maggeta and Batamo

DLC Pack 4: Cabba, Frost, Hit and Zamasu

If they do DB as DLC I guarantee it will only be King Piccolo and Piccolo Junior arcs.
I'm 100% they'll have Super as DLC the things I can see being added for Super as DLC would be:
-Cruise Ship Stage
-Tagoma (Didn't fight in the movie version since he was killed off early (correct if wrong), so he'll be included in DLC)
-Ginyu (Tagoma's Body)
-Universe 6 Characters
-Universe 6 Tournament Stage
-Ruined City (Future Trunks Saga)
-Champa as a master?
-Some parallel quests added
I don't think the Monaka Saga that had Googeta will be included since it isn't a important arc.

In the base game I really hope they have the Planet that Beerus and Whis live on as a stage.

I can see Copy Vegeta being a alt for Vegeta. He does not seem to be that much different compare to Bebi Vegeta.

This part intrigues me greatly.
- A lot of characters are still being hidden (and the way it was said, purposely :lol:). But it seems there won't have much more stages than the first game.
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yeeeeeeee-
- No Goku's childhood.
-eeeeeesss - wait, no. No. Dammit, no, why? C'mon game developers. You're doing a DBZ game specifically built around time travel, how do you NOT give us some original DB stuff?

I'm still pretty hyped, but I have to admit, that last bit has sufficiently deflated my sails a bit.

The original characters will never get any love mainly because most of the characters in that time period of Dragon Ball can't fly or transform. It sucks so much.

Even if we're not getting them when the game releases, they did mention they'll be listening to requests from fans while adding in new things even after the release.

Yeah, but that didn't stop Budokai 3 from including them, or even the Tenkaichi series and that was pretty much free flying as well. There's gotta be some way to make it work, or worst case scenario, just hand wave it and have the characters having learned to fly much earlier in the Xenoverse take on things due to time getting all screwy, or...something.

I'm not even asking for as in-depth of a story representation, just like...a fairly decent one. Barring mentioning of different outfits for characters that started in DB and moved on into Z, I'm basically just asking for, say...1) Kid Goku, 2) Kid Kuririn, 3) Nam, 4) Ninja Murasaki, 5) Android 8, 6) General Blue, 7) Mercenary Tao, 8) Devilman, 9) Tambourine, and 10) King Piccolo. Maybe toss in a regular Oozaru encounter to represent Goku, some Pilaf mechs, Assistant Black's mech, and Piccolo's giant form as boss fights, and again throw in proper outfits for characters to make them fit that time period, and I'm a happy camper for how they'd handle that story mode.

Oh, and also Roshi and Chaozu I suppose, but they can technically be lumped in as Z additions too, same way that using adult Goku and regular Piccolo would work for going over the 23rd Tournament.

I'm glad Dimps ain't making the same mistake regarding the Saiyans having more transformations and power over others.

They say that if enough people want it, they'll give SS god fors later, though I wouldn't be for giving the Saiyans God form until the other race sget more forms.

Dimps logic

SSJG and SSJB will make the saiyans to strong. But lets give out those golden forms that make a person stronger than SSJB.

I swear, it's like they read the fan manga and said "This is awesome! Let's do just that!" I mean, they even have a tournament between the universes. I ... I don't even.
Fan fiction? It wasn't fans that came up with the idea. Parallel timelines were introduced in the Android arc of the manga.

The idea of other worlds with slight differences originates from Toriyama's comment on how he viewed the movies.

You really can't blame fans for following ideas from the original... you certainly can't blame official releases from expanding on their previous material.

Everyone's talking about mechanics and transformations ... I'm here still trying to figure out which edition I pre-ordered has the Day 1 Edition, and if the CE REALLY doesn't come with the Season Pass, lmao.

what is wrong with everyone getting the editions confused, its not that hard.

Early copies of the normal game will have Black and the Tao Log. If you preorder, youre guaranteed to get this, if you dont you will probably still get it if you buy it early. This applies to all copies of the game.

The deluxe edition is just the game plus season pass. You also get to play as blue hair Future Trunks early. The only confusion here is if Trunks is going to be DLC and part of the season pass or just a normal unlockable character.

The collectors edition has the game, figure, guide book, steel book case plus soundtrack. NO season pass.
