Re: "Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2" Official Discussion Thread
I loved this game when it first came out, but I haven't played it in a few years now, and it's shocking to me that it's still getting DLCs instead of a sequel. At first, I found it refreshing that they were continuing to support the game, instead of abandoning it in favor of something new, but it h...

Re: Did Dragon Ball Super set the fanbase on a path of no return? We are feeling the content starvation.
Dragon Ball has gotten a steady flow of new “canon” content since Super ended with manga, games, and movies. DB fans are eating even without the anime, and I’m not entirely sure why so many fans have been wanting an anime when there’s already so much new content continuing the story. I think fandoms...

Re: What would you choose: Good voice acting with bad translation or Bad voice acting with good translation?
Good acting with bad translations. Because the screen shots will undoubtedly make great meme material. Okay but seriously I do think I’d be entertained with a well acted show if it’s ridiculous or has things I know are totally off. A poorly acted accurate translation will probably just make me wince...

Re: Should Goku continue to be the main character or someone else becomes the main character
I think Goku is just fun as the main protagonist. I don’t think you can truly overuse a character so long as you come up with interesting ways to use them. I don’t think Goku is an exception. I just think the writers need to stop regressing Goku when they really don’t need to.

Re: How did you decide/get your avatar?
I drew this avatar myself.:) I just redrew an image of Luffy in his “brainless mode” (I forgot the actual name of the technique) as Ultra Instinct. It just seemed like such a fun idea to me. It seemed appropriate for the forum, and I think it’s a decent indicator of the kind of person I am to intera...

Re: What do you think Dragon Ball RoF mistakes are?
- Frieza is a joke in this film. He makes rookie mistakes that make him look like an idiot like apparently just rushing to earth the moment he unlocked a new form. And only briefly does he manage to get the upper hand against Goku when there’s three more powerful people within a few square feet of ...

Re: Would you still like Dragon Ball if it hadn’t been retooled into a martial arts story?
It’s hard to say. Toriyama switched gears almost immediately after the first arc. If Dragon Ball hadn’t focused on martial arts, that’s like three arcs already wiped from existence. And the first tournament arc is what hooked me. Considering how much I like One Piece, I’d like to think I’d enjoy a m...

Re: Dragon ball art
I think in this digital era it’s pretty easy to find high resolution scans of Toriyama’s colored art on Google. But if you’re looking to own physical representations, I think the closest you can get is Dragon Ball: The Complete Illustrations book. It’s full of Toriyama’s colored art and it’s pretty ...

Re: False Super Saiyan Appreciation Thread
I think False Super Saiyan is just okay. I’ve always enjoyed it more as an oddity and the trivia information behind it rather than as an actual form. It looks cool I guess though I’m not a fan of the chicken soup broth shade of yellow for the aura. It’s a cool form but I’m surprised if it’s not as r...

Re: The "revival" of Dragon Ball has been going on since 2013, when will it end?
I don’t see this ongoing flow of animated content ending any time soon. If I had to predict a time frame for the series to go through another lull, I’d say it has another 10 years left in it easy. And even then, Dragon Ball won’t disappear. Video games, OVA’s, and manga will still be ongoing. But I ...

Re: "Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2" Official Discussion Thread
Mascots are the epitome of useless, because they get rid of your veichle. I much rather keep my fast Mercenary Tao Pillar rather than having a mini-Veku that follows my charatacer and has no practical utility. As for the color change feature on normal characters, it is not that well made. Just look...

Re: things that grind your gears

Re: Favorite Form?
My favorite forms are: Super Saiyan Grade 4. I enjoy it as a concept, becoming so accustomed to a power that it becomes your default level, and are consequently able to gain more power from it when you exert yourself. I enjoy the gentler way eyes are drawn and the lighter shade of yellow. Super Saiy...

Re: "Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2" Official Discussion Thread
Wouldn't it be funny if, instead of Xenoverse 3, we got something like "Xenoverse Ultra-Remix" that is technically XV3 in all but name but is really tryng to redo XV1 and 2? If that sounds redundant, remember we're talking about the modern video games industry. What I’m wondering is, how ...

Re: "Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2" Official Discussion Thread
They could establish early on that the two previous CaC died somehow. Which means the new character has to get stronger than both of them put together and then the dude who killed them... Same problem imo. They could go the heart virus route :lol: Honestly if they don’t acknowledge the previous CaC...

Re: What are the things you like about DBS Anime?
I think what I like most about Super was how Toriyama it felt. I know he had very minimal involvement in the story, but it still felt like a much more light hearted depiction of the universe. But with the concepts Toriyama submitted, I feel like the story had no choice but to infuse the epic stories...
