Xenoverse isn't a bad game, it's just the best DBZ game we won't have because most of its content is locked behind RNG Hell and it doesn't do enough with the time traveling shenanigans concept.

I don't understand why everyone who makes a DBZ immediately must go to the tried and true beyond it being familiar, but I eat that goofy what-if stuff up and want to see a lot more of it than I did. Please take from Heroes for a potential sequel and go loving crazy Dimps.

More often than not these movie goons just get plastered by Goku or whoever the second strongest at the time is.

Dead Zone - Killed by Goku and Piccolo
World's Strongest - Killed by Goku
Tree of Might - Killed by Goku
Lord Slug - Killed by Goku and Piccolo
Cooler's Revenge - Killed by Piccolo
Meta-Cooler - I mean, I guess all of the Meta-Coolers count? So killed by Goku? Idk
Super Android 13 - No real goons in this one, but I guess 14 and 15 count, so killed by Vegeta and Trunks
Broly - Lol
Bojack - One killed by Trunks, two more by Gohan, and Bojack kills Zangya

Goons p much stop happening after Bojack, but goons were never used well in the movies. They're more often than not there to be nuisances to the cast and then the main character kills them all or the second strongest dude kills them while the main character fights the bad guy.

I went to the TeamFourStar panel at AWA and I like Cell a whole lot more as a character when he's running for president or playing the straight man to other crazy people as some of Takahata's jokes would have you believe. Also KaiserNeko talked about how hosed he was coming out of high school and over the last almost decade met some of the most amazing people he's ever met and made really close friends and appreciated the huge fanbase he has and I legitimately thought he was about to cry, it was pretty touching.

Kurama is a nice boy who loves his momma, just like Cool Trunks.

Yeah they should hurry up and write Gohan out of the picture if they're that determined to make him a nerdy house husband. Give Big Green more screen time(and don't make him chump to a Freiza goon what the gently caress)

My biggest problem with RF is that every character just feels like a loving nerd except Beerus and Whis who aren't even involved in anything in the movie except that strawberry sundae and making the ending terrible.

I would have to assume he doesn't see a point given that a lot of bleach just sort of rushes by in fight scenes and whatnot. So it's not like anyone's going to realistically care and he's not wrong because the only people that really give him poo poo for it are western internet nerds.

It's just sort of the cherry on the "Freeza is an idiot" icing that is coupled with him seriously thinking Vegeta wanted back in on his army. It was funny, but it's a pretty flaccid ending to that fight.

Honestly I was expecting the ending of Resurrection F to really suck but in practice it worked okay. Vegeta still got to be rad, he just needed Goku's help. That's kind of a running theme of the movie- they're both strong on their own, but they need each other to be unstoppable.

He needed Goku's help because otherwise the world gets blown up is insanely stupid and for a running theme it sure only has any real meaning at one part of the movie since Vegeta's effectively sidelined and Goku doesn't actually need his help nor vice-versa to beat Freeza.

The point was because of their individual flaws, they both hosed up at critical points, just in different ways.

I know what the point was, it's just poorly handled is what I'm saying. Both of them had the villain dead to rights and the only reason anything went poorly is because of stupid contrived laser ring and Freeza ragequitting, which are terrible ways to show they hosed up at all because both are not within their power to stop unless they were supposed to gangbang him from the start and then there's no movie.

Goku could've stopped the ring by not being a laid back dumbass and killing Frieza quicker and Vegeta could've avoided the planet blowing up by not being too slow about how he did it and killing Frieza quicker.

It's got nothing to do with gangbanging and everything to do with when you've got the loving shot take the loving shot


Why the gently caress does the laser ring work on Goku who is omnipowerful god as far as Freeza's tech is concerned? That is an actual stupid thing considering the dude has been hit by far worse. I like how you bring up Vegeta not killing him faster when literally nothing about the situation changed and Goku coming at Freeza somehow put Freeza in the exact same place you're accusing Vegeta of. It is not the movie reprimanding Vegeta for not killing him sooner because Vegeta didn't do anything wrong, it is the movie trying to punish Goku because he didn't kill Freeza sooner so it can make its dumb point on Goku's character. Freeza didn't do anything wrong by DBZ logic when he just freezes up as Goku dives at him and it's treated as if Goku learned a lesson, so Vegeta actually played no role in his own punishment because that is not about him.

Yeah the team up thing is never really addressed and seems more of a set up for a future movie or maybe early groundwork for super. Because even taking into account how F died they really weren't working as a team.

Yeah, this is what I figured it was. The team up thing does not play a large part of the movie, because the movie is half an advertisement for super and half up its own butt.

People have posted stuff to counter you, but just to type out the reasoning; Goku's "default" durability is higher than a human and can block bullets, but that's about it. Ki works like the sliders at the beginning of a RPG where you pick your character stats, only they adjust them constantly, on the fly. If they aren't currently putting any "points" into defense, either by letting their guard down (Goku) or by putting most in speed or something (Gohan rescuing Vegeta from Cell's blast), then they're vulnerable.

It's dumb. It literally came from the exact same direction that Freeza was in who Goku was looking at. The idea that Goku not being on guard 100% of the time while being in God Mode somehow makes this lovely little laser work on him is really stupid and takes any sort of tension that the scene could have out, because it just makes Goku look like an idiot and not in the typical sense. Which the movie is trying to do, so congratulations on that, I guess.

Koala guy and crew have a machine that will regenerate a dozen pieces of Freeza into one complete with armor and underpants. Who says they can't make a laser that'll actually hurt somebody as tough as Goku? It's magic space technology who cares?

It matters when the villain is beaten and you need some boring contrivance to turn the tide in his favor and extend the movie for another 10 minutes. There's a million better ways to do that scene and make your point but "Goku gets hit by lovely laser from fat freeza goon and farts and dies" is not one of them.

Takahata is the one who puts it together iirc, Kaiser is the one who handles DBZA.
