I think Super 17 is already in the game as a Dragon wish. It's weird there's so much spotlight on GT as opposed to the movies.

Not only him, but SSJ4 Gogeta, and Omega Shenron.

Yeah, all these guys before Cooler? Or even a lot of canon characters. It's weird.

It's still gonna rock, of course, the roster choices just strike me as strange.

This game really makes me think of this a lot.

I absolutely love the game but grinding is so obnoxious and tedious. When people say they did a certain PQ like thirty times my mind implodes on itself because I barely have the patience to do one three times in a row. It probably wouldn't be as bad if they didn't all have the exact same battle dialogue over and over, or make me deal with the gates.

It's amazing how much a game can irritate me this much and yet I still have so much fun with it. I keep uninstalling it, swearing I've given up forever and/or will wait for mods, but here I am, installing it for like the fifth time because I love being a DBZ character and the moveset customization parts are amazing. The fighting is actually fun and addictive. It's good the special move system is extremely simple because I absolutely cannot deal with systems that have you input combos. For some reason I've just always been extremely incompetent at that mechanic.

The skill that lets you charge ki helps so much. It's remarkably easy to spam Ultimates with them. I don't really have to worry about upping my ki bars at all.

The Why Yoooou Z Soul is amazing. Instant Ki refill on KO of an enemy. The Buus are gonna be a cakewalk. I also got Crusher Volcano, an ultimate that throws a swarm of giant energy spheres. Bonzer.

I'm also gonna get that Super 17 attack from Shenron. It looks awesome, and I also happen to like Super 17(but not enough to waste a wish on him, since I don't care about playing anyone but my OC anyway).

As someone who played through as a Majin I'm really curious what the reactions to the other races are throughout stuff.

Does Piccolo freak out about a Namekian during the Saiyan Saga? Does Frieza care that you're the same thing he is? How's Vegeta react to some random extra Saiyan hanging out?

Any really good lines I missed?

Cell apparently uses the fan term "Frost Demon". I'm playing a Freeza Clan but haven't played that PQ myself.

It sucks the regular mission dialogue is said over and over, but depending on your race and who you bring, it can be pretty funny/interesting sometimes, like Kid Trunks and Teen Gohan commenting on how each other shrunk.

I hope Xenoverse 2 does give Namekians a giant form. It could work pretty easily. Also, Kai and demon species option. I'd still play Freeza Clan or Earthling/Saiyan, but the game could do with more anyway for the sake of being more complete.

Also how is Freiza's army that big still? Did they use one of the other wishes to revive the army?

There's a prequel manga that shows the orginization is barely hanging on, to the point that a random deputy director of a star system or whatever(one of Freeza's sidekicks in the new movie who revives him) is the one in charge now, and they're having to just give up and withdraw from rebelling planets.

Edit: Beat like Radditz.

Innocence Cannon is supposed to encase the opponent inside that orb it makes, then fire them a huuuuuge distance. If it doesn't grab them it doesn't work at all.

It's okay Jeice, I know that if you were entirely removed from the timeline it would have no impact whatsoever. But I still think your hot balls are cool... wait, that came out wrong.

With Crusher Volcano and Blue Hurricane being two of the most popular ultimates in the game....you'd really think Jeice and Burter would have had more of an impact, considering they were a duo, huh?

I noticed you can't actually make Freeza with the Freeza race guys. I'm assuming the armour equips for that race change their body type and such so you can design him properly later?

Have you tried taking all his clothes off? He might look closer then. Freeza's fourth form lacks any of the "biological armor"(in quotation marks because that's the first time that part of his body has been referred to that way) the other three forms have. You can make Cooler and, if taking off the armor works, Kuriza.

There's also many bouts of GT Logic, such as Pan, Trunks and Goku all forgetting they can fly, Goku learning that Super 17 is absorbing energy and thus continues to blast him with energy and continue to act confused.

I really dislike that Goku essentially just Kaioken'd his Kamehameha's for the killing "x10 Kamehameha!" Also poo poo like "No Goten and Trunks don't fuse into Gotenks, If you do we have to design a teenage Gotenks you've both been out of training.

GT was nothing but an awful show with ocasional good designs, such as Super Seventeen. More often then not though, even those sucked.

GT was also continued for two more arcs after it was going to end with Baby, for the sole purpose of advertising a lovely PS1 game called Final Bout.

Traveling to different planets is such a great way to introduce stronger and stronger villains without too much backstory. GT had some good ideas, but... I never personally watched it all. Maybe I will try.

Just yesterday I was telling my friend if I ever hated him and wanted him dead, I'd convince him to do a rewatch of GT so he'd kill himself.
