How l would personally like an ideal dragon ball game to be

[jiopa56]

One such game for me would be the separation of super and gt or in other words having to choose to follow the path of either super or gt.




[1)Basically you will start playing in the original db(fighting all it's enemies e.t.c)then after you finish it you go straight to z complete the storyline and it's fights.After you finish z in order to continue playing the game you will have to choose which path you want to follow gt or super.Super will be followed by it's transformations(ssg,ssb,ssbkk,ssbe,sign ultra instinct e.t.c)and gt with two transformations super saiyan 4 and super full power super saiyan 4(sfpssj4 is a much more powered form of ssj4 so l separate it from the regular ssj4)].



[2)The character selection will be according to which of the two path you selected so for example if you have chosen the super path you won't be able to play with any gt characters and transformations and the opposite if you choose the gt path.]



[3)The game must make sure to make transformations as similar(in terms of movement,combos,special attacks)and as powerful as they are in both animes(in terms of damage,health,stamina,ki e.t.c)]



[4)The next thing is the fighting system which l would like it to be as inclusive and enriched as possible with fights happening in large areas(much like in budokais)with combos being large and intense(also something very similar to budokai)special moves to be vocally quoted directly from the anime and generally the fights to be totally inclusive and enriched with many moves,with huge intensity and with convenience for all players.The quality could pretty much resemble that of kakarot and sparking zero.]



[5)Also the transformations should be gained with high difficulty(in order for the transformations to feel much more special and valued)not only by completing the story but also by completing difficult missions which will require a pretty good skill in order to obtain each transformation every time and continue the story and the game.So your skill in the fights will have to improved constantly in order to be able to continue playing the story and gain transformations and special moves.Each transformation should be given separately(not like xenoverse where you obtain super saiyan 1,2,3 together in one pack)]



[6)When it comes to other races l don't have much to say because they don't differentiate between the super and gt timeline except maybe from frieza and piccolo where they obtain a new transformation in super whereas in gt not.So again l don't have much to say the cac should be probably limited to the saiyan race and piccolo and frieza should have their orange and golden transformations(as default characters)if you have chosen the super path only.]



[7)It should have a custom mode where you can play what if scenarios battles with their respective what if mini storyline(if you are on the gt path you will also be able to play what if scenarios and battles of the gt series and if you are on super you will also be able to play what if scenarios of the super series).]



[8)When it comes to multi-player it should be like the old budokai 3.The cac slots should be about 5 where you have a variety of choices in terms of clothes,,t-shirts.In the second and third(and all the other new slots you will be able to make changes and in visuals and such in the game)]



[9)The music should be also separated according to the path.In the gt one you will be able to hear the gt soundtracks and music in both battles and menu and the same goes for the super one.]



[10)If it has dlc then it should(maybe?)has to do with stages
It should has also to do with fillers and characters from the movies of each series(this includes original db and z movies,hero legacy for gt and all the super movies for the super path).]



[11)Every character will have many variations of themselves according to arcs and sagas.So z goku will have raditz arc variation,saiyan saga variation(with kaioken),namek saga variation(kaioken,ssj),yardrat(kaioken,ssj), android arc(kaioken,ssj[though better and more advanced ssj compared to namek and yardrat self the same goes for all characters])cell saga[post rosat)(kaioken,ssj grade 2,grade 3,grade 4),buu saga(kaioken,ssj1,ssj2,ssj3)and so on and so on for every character that in an arc or saga unlocked many new techniques or he became much more powerful or his first appearance in the series[which we saw him fight of course]like for example beginning of z raditz arc goku who despite that he didn't became much more powerful and he wasn't that different from his last appearance in original dragon ball it is his starting point in z his first appearance so l think you understand me



[12).If you have completed 50% of the game you will have the ability to choose to play and with the other alternate timelines of z as well.So if you want you will be able to follow and play the future trunks timeline,cell timeline and unseen timeline.It will be kind of an option to the game.So you will begin by starting playing again the very final battle between ssj goku and 100% frieza on namek.Like the main timeline you will see again goku(after this first battle)defeating frieza on namek,cutscenes of namekians wishing for new namek e.t.c.Then we would see mecha frieza and king cold arriving but instead of future trunks arriving to kill them we would see them ready to kill all of the z fighters when suddenly we see goku arriving with instant transmission in front if them,their dialogue and then we would fight as goku against mecha frieza and then against king cold.After their fight we would be able to see and do side missions in the 3 years of peace they follow until the androids.When the side missions are finished we continue and we see some cutscenes of goku getting affected by the heart virus suffering from it and dying,the grief of the z warriors and the very last days of peace.We proceed to the next part of the story and the arrival of androids.We see the gathering of all z warriors upon seeing the city being destroyed,their fight and death of all them by the androids except gohan,whom we see escaping and surviving.We see him turning for the first time super saiyan.And we generally see(in cutscenes)and fight in all the other events happening until future trunks first time travels to the past.We play the fight of trunks against mecha frieza and king cold.We finish it and we see again trunks like in the main timeline giving goku the medicine and warning the z warriors of the androids and leave.He returns to his timeline until he is about to return to help with the androids in 3 years.And we have to do side missions in this timeskip to continue the story.After we do them trunks returns to the past timeline for the second time to help with the androids.Everything goes the same as the main timeline until the point in canon story where they discover cell time machine.There in order to continue the game give us three different ways to continue the story:

1.to continue and not there be any time traveling cell,take the blueprints for the androids and return to the future timeline(cell/original timeline)

2.to continue to the present,not there to be any time traveling cell but remain to the present timeline.Essentially if we choose that we would see things from the perspective of the present timeline instead of future trunks perspective and we will remain to the present timeline instead of returning to the future and seeing trunks getting killed by cell(unseen timeline)

3.to continue but time traveling cell to be there,remain as future trunks there and we see again some curscenes from the main timeline of trunks training in the rosat and participating in cell games and then see him again getting killed by perfect cell but instead of continuing with present z fighters and gohan killing cell(the main timeline)we see some cutscenes of trunks in the afterlife until he is revived.He is revived he says goodbye to the main timeline warriors and returns to the changed future timeline.We play the fight of ssj trunks against the androids,he kills them and then we see some very few cutscenes of the 3 year timeskip until he meets his timeline cell.We play the fight of ssj trunks vs cell,he kills him and we see some cutscenes of the years following of peace until badidi and dabura arrive.Then shin comes to help trunks and we fight against dabura.After we finish the fight with dabura,dabura kills shin and trunks turns ssj2 against dabura and kills dabura and badidi.

The same goes and for the alternate timelines made in super as well if you have chosen the super path(you will be able to play them as well).And so with completing this we will have completed about 75% of the game and we will unlock future gohan,future goku and maybe future vegeta as playable characters whether timeline of course you choose to follow.The only difference would there be that if you have chosen the future trunks timeline you will be also be able to customize dbz future trunks with ssj2 as well(if you have chosen the super path,because if you haven't chosen it then trunks vs dabura and badidi wont happen or at least not how we know in super that it happened).Of course if you have completed any of the three timelines you will be able to play the other two at any time you want(in the same point that you choose the timelines not in the beginning)





Something else in the very beginning of the game before you even begin to play the original dragon ball story you will have to choose which version you want to play,the anime version or manga version.Of course gt path would remain the same in both anime and manga version but everything else generally(super path,alternative timelines e.t.c)will be according to either the anime version or manga version.Fillers(of anime) will not be available if you have chosen the manga version but movies will still be available in the manga version just for fareness sake.Also when it comes to the music and vocals and such in the manga version they still will be from the anime as the manga doesn't have any music or vocals or anything like]

Some clarifications(or things which I missed to say)You will be
able to change path but any progress you made in the path will
be lost.So while anything in original dragon ball and z story that
you did(quests,battles e.t.c.)will still remain,anything related to the path will be lost(at least any specific as some very basic and general things will still remain).When it comes to
payments(as you will lose anything[except again some very basic and general things from that path)you will get
a full refund for everything you paid(dlc e.t.c and generally everything you have paid).So after you have changed the path you will start again playing the final battle of ssj3 goku and kid buu and then continue to your new path and return to the point that you were before you choose your previous path.
Also when it comes to anime and manga version of events you will also be able to change it but you will lose anything specific and will retain some very basic and general things(like the change of path).But in contrast to the change of path you will have to play again the original dragon ball story and z and return essentially to the beginning(with mentaining again some very basic things from the previous anime or manga version of events).
Original dragon ball and z movies will be available only after you finish z story and you choose gt path in both anime and manga versions(as og dragon ball and z movies arent canon to z or super anime/manga whereas in gt anime they most likely are)so if you choose the super path you wont be able to have any og and z movie characters or anything from these movies at all.Yes in the z anime or manga there are appearances of some characters from the z movies like bardock but they are still not canon so again you will have to choose the gt path for them to be available.Similarly og dragon ball and z fillers will also be according to the canon of animes l think you understand.
Also in the manga version if you have chosen gt path you will be able to skip more excessive material like black star arc and super 17 arc.Everything generally would go exactly like canon db/dbz/dbs manga and anime and gt anime.Anything in general that isnt canon canon to either db/dbz/dbs manga and anime and gt anime will be exclusively dlc
Now why gt and super and anime and manga to be seperated?It is because l want the game to be as close and realistic to the series as it can.I want it to follow the natural course of the series.Personally l dont believe that it could without a seperation(at least in specific things)between them.This is my approach at least.



This would be the perfect db game for me.Containing or at least try to contain pretty much almost all of the dragon ball series and being or trying to be as enriched as possible while at the same time remaining its balance and not being repetitive(or at least to a big decree)and such.l hope l was as clear and detailed as possible.What do you think of such game?Would you like it?Say your ideas!!

I think Budokai 3 had the right idea: you play the story regularly, if you simply defeat Pure Boo, the end credits play but if you defeat him with the Genki-dama, you continue the story towards the 28th Tenka'ichi Budoukai to fight and unlock Oob.

The ideal game, in my mind, would start at Blooma shooting Gokuu, it'd have an Kakarot feel to it most of the time outside of fights, you can explore, talk to NPCs and complete quests and overall hang around the Dragon World. Following the Story Path would have you run the gauntlet from the Bear Thief till Oob, following the original run of the manga. The fighting sections would adopt a Sparking series approach.

If you talk to certain characters at certain points in time, you can branch the path to include movie events, doing so, you'd have the GT plot line after fighting Oob. If you follow the manga plot strictly, but during the Boo saga you speak to Shin before the Pure Boo fight (this will be blocked if you already activated the GT quest), he'll talk about how the God power from the Dai Kaioushin went to the Pure Boo during the split. Doing so, instead of having the 10 years time skip to fight Oob, you unlock the Daima-Super plotline (it fits, guys) that cover the stuff untill Super Hero and finishes off in the Oob fight.

This way, you either finish it with the original ending, GT's timeline or the post-revival plotline...

Realistically speaking, it'd be a game from Blooma meeting Gokuu to Oob, with Toei movies & GT and Super & Daima being DLCs.

Salt-sensei do you think the game that l described would be good and interesting?

[Saiya6Cit]

Yeah I played kakarot and I could never beat Radditz because I suck so bad at videogames, and I got the DBZ games on a bootleg arcade and they are all in japanese si I don't even bother about playing them, but I agree with you that a dragon ball videogame should start with original DB and not with DBZ but you know how controversial OG DB is due to its erotic content so... meh...

My perfect game would be:


1. Budokai Tenkaichi 3 style gameplay and beam struggles, not the Sparking Zero "improvements" and changes. Budokai Tenkaichi 3 as a true base, years later, with graphical improvements and balance.


2. A story mode with as much attention to detail as Dragon Ball: Burst Limit


3. Story mode adaptions of ALL stories and arcs from original Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, the DBZ movies, the History of Trunks OVA, the Bardock Father of Goku OVA (remade to be consistent with Dragon Ball Minus), the Yo! Son Goku & His Friends Return OVA, Battle of Gods, Resurrection F, Dragon Ball Super (elements from the Super anime and manga), the Dragon Ball Super movies, Dragon Ball Daima, Dragon Ball GT, and the Dragon Ball GT film. All stories should get detailed attention and high budget cutscenes, whether they are from DB, Z, Super, Daima, movies, GT, or OVA.

Maybe even adaptions of Neko Majin/Z, Cross Epoch, and Jaco: The Galactic Patrol Man


4. Fun what if stories like the ones from Budokai 1-3 and Budokai Tenkaichi 1-3. With the what if's being as detailed and passionate as those, and not hollow/cheaply made like Sparking Zero was for most.


5. All characters from Budokai 1-3, Budokai Tenkaichi 1-3, Sparking Zero, Xenoverse 1-2, and FighterZ returning, including what if fusions, what if absorptions, and unplayable characters (like Gohan Black). There should be modes to play with them accurate to power levels, and a mode where every character is balanced/equal.


6. The ability to pick your own team for the Tournament of Power (with complete joke characters like Monaka, a Saibaman, Hercule, Boss Rabbit, etc, villains, and dead fighters as options). Unique stories and emotional beats for many characters during the tournament as well.


7. Detailed what if's where you can add your own audio files for voice acting and custom writing written from a keyboard

8. A character creator that is detailed.


9. A comprehensive roster that includes every character that has a name and has ever so much as thrown a punch in the Dragon Ball franchise...



The roster should have...

DB:
Oolong (with fun transformations as attacks), Teen Yamcha, Boss Rabbit, Ox King, Kid Krillin, Bacterian, Gigan, Ranfan, Nam, Bora, General Blue, Murasaki, Violet, Silver, Yellow, Major Metallitron, Buyon, Bandages, Fangs, King Chappa, Man Wolf, Pamput, King Chappa, Master Shen, all of King Piccolo's henchmen, old King Piccolo, Master Mutaito, Hero, Kami, Popo, Korin, Cyborg Tao, Adult Chi Chi

It's out, and it's Dragon Ball FighterZ. Arc System Works is the best fighting game developer out there right now, and they did an incredible job with Dragon Ball. All I could ask for in a sequel is more emphasis on the original Dragon Ball characters and different stages to play in (after seven years, I'm kind of tired of playing on the same few locations).
