Neo_Crimson posted:Hence why I said no "hard" tiers. Yes, I am aware it's impossible to have a perfectly balanced game with varied characters. However it is possible to have a game where the gulf between a "good" character and a "bad" character is small enough that picking the latter isn't an automatic failure state. No "Fox Only, No Items, Final Destination" situations basically. melees interesting because as it was designed it basically fulfills what you want in "no hard tiers". even at a moderately competitive level, more or less every character is fine enough in a viability sense. its the players the exploit the game for absurd technical ability that give berth to the more defined tiers and super high level characters that otherwise you'd literally never notice. even up until the professional level you can use something like 80% of the roster w/ okay results, the learning curve on fox/falco is fairly absurd.

don't MOBAs have such big team variety because you can ban half the roster at character creation? Idk if that's a fair comparison since any fighting game tournament will have tons of variety if you can just ban characters

Tiers do not apply to 99% of the players of a game and of all the "important" things that make up a good competitive game, balance alone is one of the least important despite common perception. As long as the DBFZ is fun to play mechanically and has numerous interesting matchups and varied team compositions to provide depth, it should be a great game.

There are 112 heroes in dota 2 and both teams have 5 picks and bans each so only 20 heroes out of the pool are interacted with during the start.

It was like two panels though, which means that Toei probably made a couple full episodes out of it. Full disclosure I haven't actually watched more than three episodes of the DBZ anime (all of them were Goku charging a spirit bomb).

As long as the DBFZ is fun to play mechanically and has numerous interesting matchups and varied team compositions to provide depth, it should be a great game. I'd argue it's a little more complex, depending on how much of a tier list is skill ceilings and how much is skill floors. At casual play, a high floor character is going to seem really "cheap" compared to others. For example, Meta Knight was pretty much an overpowered scourge at any tier level, but he's kind of an outlier in that regard.

Kashuno posted:So really looking at it, does Goku have a losing record throughout the series? He definitely does in DBZ and S It depends. Are you qualifying 'big' fights or fights in general. If the latter then no, Dragonball and Goku's constant punching of crap dudes puts him well over the top. Super and Z have a lot less of that so it starts to go against him.

He definitely does in DBZ and S goku almost always wins in original dragon ball but still does lose (the first two tournaments, tao pai pai, and piccolo come to mind. he might have lost to his ghost granpa but I think they just stopped fighting when goku figure it out). the fights are generally 1v1, compared to dbz where the big bads usually require at least a bit of teamwork in dbz, goku doesn't really "lose" all that much because the stakes are different (goku dies with raditz but he still won that fight, for example) but he always needs help to beat the big bads and almost never wins a straight 1v1 fight super is inverse dragon ball where goku almost always loses

Xenoverse is really weird in that the arc with the most importance to the plot (as Towa was getting revenge for Dabura) had the least relevant events.

U4 Speculation: Damon and Gamisaras aren’t invisible but actually sticking either to the side or bottom of the arena. They are described as cicada warriors. Note that cicadas can fly and molt. Can you think of another cicada-looking fellow that molted and generally made a mess of things? Cell. 17 and 18 will have a chance to fight the U4 version of Cell when Damon absorbs Gamisaras. Or we get Gohan v. Cell again when he/she absorbs 17 & 18 lol
