This game is honestly an anomaly. Even though I was defending it from the beginning, I started to agree with everyone else once I played the demo... but I took a risk in buying it (that PS+ discount on Vita sealed it for me), and honestly, I'm loving it the more I play it. There's really a sense of individuality between characters, the likes of which I can safely say have never been in a Dragon Ball game. Everyone has unique combos, damage, speed, health... and what's great about the special moves is that there's a
lot of variety and strategy in them. Playing as say, Vegeta and then playing as Kuririn is like night and day. Their roles are so drastically different in battle.
I would certainly recommend to you to pick it up (maybe not at full price... then again I don't ever pay full price for games. $60 is too much for any one video game, in my opinion). One of the things the demo doesn't show is the absolutely crazy fun coop is, and how people really do have their own unique character (color, cards). And speaking of cards, they really do make a noticeable difference. Most other DBZ games, you barely notice a difference or sometimes not at all in customization. But in some of the later missions, if you want to have even a prayer of beating them, you really have to strategically beef up your character... and make sure all the appropriate roles are filled in your team.
The lack of VS mode is honestly something I've forgotten. After getting familiar with the game, I don't think in-game transformations would even work, and this isn't simply just a beat-'em-up brawler--a fighting game this is not.
Thanos before Thanos was cool.
