    Time-travel.
    Demigra is basically the same thing as a kaioshin: Pointy-eared wizard who lives outside of space. So he would have bullshit magic that does things Trunks' flying bucket doesn't.

    I noticed something weird when doing one of Gotenk's mentor missions, in the mission objective it says to kill Majin Buu and Evil Buu, I got excited for a moment but it turned out just to be a Super Buu. Weird that they got the name wrong.

    probably. I believe if they're in their purple glowy forms it's considered their "evil" form?

    He was in his normal form I believe, without the timey-wimy time magic.

    It really bums me out just how many characters are skipped.

    No Zarbon, Dodoria, Chaotzu, 16, 19, Gero, Dabura, a bunch of forms missing, a bunch of movie villains missing...among other things.

    The roster feels pretty lacking to me.

    Are the three villains even playable?

    But they're clothing items are sadly enough. Skipped characters aside my biggest gripe is the skipped transformations, Freeza goes from First to Final form, there's only perfect cell. Would have loved to go from Normal Goku to SSJ1, 2 and then 3 without having a gazillion goku's in thee roster. There was no need to have Goku God in a separate slot, just make him a skin like all the other goku's that look the same. Same with Freeza, each form has it's own slot for some reason, just make em skins or let me change forms in battle itself.

    This sort of thing happens kind of a lot in the game. The worst one I've noticed is the second three star mission with the Ginyu Force fight. When Captain Ginyu appears the portrait at the bottom of the screen that has his text says Goku and shows Goku's portrait but the enemy I'm fighting is entirely Ginyu, not body swapped Ginyu.

    I also noticed they call Lord Beerus by a different name, I think it was Bill. Not sure if that is a normal thing or if it is a mess up in the translation. I do remember that anytime the text said Bill they actually voice acting said Lord Beerus. Another example involving Beerus is the ultimate he gives at the end of his mentoring. There is a z-soul that makes it more powerful but the name on the z-soul and the name of the skill itself are different.

    Hilariously, they fixed the broken ginyu line, then RE-broke it in the DLC patch. Now his line is entirely replaced with frieza's line from the ult finish, VA and all.

    In the movie they pronounce it Birusu, so it can be a translation from both Beerus or Brills. Both are kind of prounced the same in Japanese. The dragonball wiki also states it's Beerus.

    Beerus is the case of a pun that was misunderstood even within the production-team. It began as a virus-pun, then became a beer-pun. Whis originates from the beer-interpretation.

    "Bills" comes from nerds.

    I was really sore about no Roshi, personally

    I really wanted him to be a Mentor

    This game really feels like it was made on a very strict budget and meant to be thrown out there to make a quick buck.

    And then it somehow made all the quick bucks.

    I really hope that means we get a sequel that feels more...full. For lack of a better term.

    There is a strange amount of Roshi-material in the game. Including the damn Pikachu-attack, and "sleepy boy".

    I want to believe they didn't go all out to just test the waters and see if there's still interest, there obviously is so let's hope they do a serious sequel or a different theme besides time travel next time.

    Because they're much more popular, I imagine. Actually, it is a bit surprising that they were added, as opposed to included initially.

    Also I finally got Super Vegeta (1) this morning.

    I can pretty safely say that Vegeta's health percentage has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not he transforms. It's just pure RNG.

    well yamcha is certainly not popular with the devs, seeing as one of the abilities he teaches you is to PLAY DEAD

    No one cares about anything from GT.

    It's not canon anyways. It's just fun side fiction.

    So, Namco just gave the release date for the DLC.

    Tommorow, March 17th

    This also confirms that PC users are not supposed to have it yet, and that it's not complete (Since it says there are 4 story missions, I think we only got two, unless I'm bad at count...though, I'm probably just bad at count and it is complete.)

    You must unlock the Roshi within yourself and realize your true potential. Only then will you understand.

    How many fights are there in the story missions the PC users now have? Like, how many times does it to "FINISH! CLEAR!" on you?

  • heenatoheenato Alice Leywind Registered User regular
    I just checked, and it was 4. I guess I just kinda got confused since 3 of them are about super 17, and the entire first half of GT was relegated to one mission that I finished in seconds because it's a great ape fight.

    And I'll bet the second pack is entirely Omega Shenron.

  • heenatoheenato Alice Leywind Registered User regular
    possibly 2 or three of that, then one of having to fight Baby, Super 17, and omega shenron at the same time.

    Wolf Fang Fist is a legitimately hype move that sadly never gets used in DBZ.

    When you use Wolf Fang Fist with Takahata101's voice set, your character yells out: "PUPPY DOG PUNCH."

    Tien was a major player in Dragon Ball. Seeing him jobbed out to hell as well as suffering the single most gruesome bodily damage from Nappa was real tragic.

    Between DB and DBZ, Yamcha won exactly one fight. Total. And barely.
