Dragon Balls? Are they tasty?

I used a save editor to eliminate the RNG in Xenoverse and it made the game much better, until I realised that acually, all of the create a goku characters outfits are crap.

That was my biggest gripe about the game.. Stats linked to clothing is stupid for a game like that. Make a costume system like DC Universe Online where I unlock styles but can make my look whatever I want it to be. And make more fully customizable options. Playing Dragon Ball character dress-up is fun, but my character is supposed to be unique.

To be fair, though, as much as I love him, what was Krillin ever going to do against Brolly?

The Krillin-Goku-Rohshi Kamehameha was pretty awesome in "World's Strongest", and I think they missed an opportunity not using that as the big finisher.

My first exposure was one of those 3 episode VHS tapes that was SSj Vegeta vs Android 18. Boy did that make watching the Saiyan Saga kinda confusing.

Those were depressing as a kid, especially if you spent all your allowance on a new VHS at the mall and nothing noteworthy happened in those episodes.

Honestly, as much as I liked BoG and RoF, I was kinda hoping that SSG would be temporary, like "Oh this is neat, I got a temporary power up to fight the God of Destruction. Well, back to training!" and maybe only pull it out again if they're in dire straits.

Hahaha, why does he grab the plane, can't he fly on his own faster than that?

How far into the cell saga is that? Is it before or after Cell has absorbed a bunch of (normal) people? Because I think Cell after absorbing thousands of people is stronger than 17 and 18, and it would be surprising for Krillin to be able to put up a fight against an opponent like that.

I don't think Cell was really trying too hard at that point. Krillin may have surprised him if his intel was outdated.

I've always liked the DBH stuff like that showing SSJ3+ characters along side the player characters who aren't transformed whatsoever.. What the gently caress are you planning to do to help a Gotenks?

That said, goddamn I hope Xenoverse 2 is more like Heroes looks.

Yeah I want new baddies to have good gimmicks.

Honestly, they could take stories from movies and re-use them and I wouldn't care. The "Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans" baddies were pretty cool.. the unkillable smoke monsters that you can only dissipate for a time but they can still do damage, that way everyone could be involved just trying to burn through them or keep them off of towns. Would be a real comic book/Justice League type thing, all the cities are being attacked so everyone has to go off on their own or into small teams to help defend them while the Saiyans fight the big bad.. Yamcha, Tien, Chiaotzu to one, Krillin, 18, and Roshi to another, Videl and Gohan doing their superhero thing.

Yeah I'm reading Dragonball for the first time, and Puar was able to turn into flying scissors and cut off Goku's tail in Ozaru form. With someone stronger, that power would be insane.

I'm playing catch-up on the last 4 episodes - how exactly is Vegeta even keeping up with this fight? God Ki can't be sensed, unless he tapped into something during Goku's transformation and he's just keeping his mouth shut about it.

Speaking of being able to pick up on things easily, in reading DB for the first time, I'm at one of the tournaments and everyone is just whipping out Kamehamehas like they're nothing. Even Tien gives it a whirl. Roshi is freaking out when he thinks Goku is going to try to block at Dodon Ray with a Kamehameha, and he's saying the Kamehameha will never work against certain people.. Did they just give up on that angle as time went on and make the Kamehameha the end-all-be-all of super attacks?

That part is important enough for Xenoverse to actually make it a skill. One of Tenshinhan's Z-Souls, "Haaaaaaaaaaaah!", makes the user completely immune to any attack named "Kamehameha".

Especially useful for that one mission where Goku, Gohan, and Goten just gang bang you with Kamehamehas at you over and over and over and over and over...

I looked up this movie on youtube and the soundtrack seemed to consist of this constant, awful, nu-metal. Like, it was seriously some of the worst music I've ever heard. Is that the actual soundtrack, or was the guy who recorded the video just listening to terrible music while doing so? It never even matched what was going on; it was like they just decided to play some tracks of this terrible music in the background and call it a day.

Yeah, that was in almost all of the American releases starting with Cooler.

SS4 Gohan is rad as gently caress. When can I pay Heroes?

I may have mentioned this, but I have a good friend stationed in Japan who sent me a huge DBZ care package a few weeks ago, including a ton of Heroes cards. They're pretty rad. I think I broke some poor kid's heart by getting a SSJ3 Kid Goku and some other nifty stuff. It looks like they sell them in very specific singles, plus grab-bag packs, since he sent me 3 different versions of Krillin in single packs since he knows Krillin is the loving man.

So I just finished reading Dragonball.. I thought Goku had some kind of adventures with Chi-Chi after beating Piccolo, but it just kinda ends with him flying away with her in tow. I know I've seen some video of him and Chi-Chi meeting Grandpa Gohan. Was that just anime filler?

I think my biggest problem with the Cell thing is that he wasn't any more intimidating than Frieza, and Gohan didn't hold back then - plus he'd had a lot more combat experience by the time they got to Cell. It just didn't make a whole lot of sense.

My Xenoverse human kicked the poo poo out of both of them. If I'm remembering it right, Whis gets beaten and has to retreat, it's actually kinda unsettling, like he's never been beaten before and doesn't know how to react and sounds genuinely frightened.

Really? I recall that if Beerus is on the field when Whis he'll grumble that if Whis wanted to be lazy and tap out he could at least put on a more convincing act.

It's during a mission - either fighting Beerus yourself or fighting SSG Goku, I can't remember which - where if you do it fast enough, Whis joins your party for the fight. If he gets knocked out, he leaves and says something like "This has never happened to me before, I have to retreat". It's been a long time, but I distinctly remember it because to that point I'd never had him with me on that fight, then hearing him back off was weird.

I finally got around to watching Resurrection F. It was really good, not as good as Battle of Gods, but really good. Nice to see Roshi and Tien get some battle action. Can't wait for another Freeza tantrum in Super though, but I suppose this arc will be more fleshed out what with Goku and Vegeta visiting Whis to train more than once as was suggested in the movie.

I loved that Roshi was more qualified to help than Yamcha. The old man threw down, it was really fun to watch and I hope they do more stuff like that in Super.

So one thing I read in the Wiki that I didn't notice in the movie is that apparently someone says Shisami (the guy who Piccolo is fighting and Gohan beats by going SSJ) was about as strong as peak Zarbon/Dodoria. So Piccolo was, at best, fighting evenly with Zarbon. SMH at Piccolo in that scene.

i think the correct answer to "who is stronger?" is always just "whoever Toriyama/the writer wants to win, "and since whoever is writing the recent movies + Super clearly wants Goku/Vegeta to win fights, they're usually the strongest.

Frieza was also concerned with training to reach a power level of 1.3 million, so take everything in that movie with a grain of salt.
