My final form.
I hope that Xenoverse 2 has a more in-depth create a character. I like what they have, but things tend to get pretty samey unless you change the colors of everything.

Having sliders for everything would be awesome, and being able to share character parts between all races would help, even when it makes no sense.

Hopefully modders add a shitton of custom part in too.

well it might be a while till I can join you guys(even with everything on minimum it's still too laggy to be worth playing, and I'll probably delete it off my computer to get back the space it takes up), but for now you can at least see my first character, meet Gelato, proud Freeza Clansmen

Acer's not bad for what it is.

What it isn't, is a gaming PC. It's just not geared for that sort of foolery unless you take the time to modify it yourself.

Acers are generally p good student/office/grandma laptops, but you shouldn't expect any laptop to just run any game well. Unless you know for sure what's inside of it, laptop gaming should be avoided to save you time and money. (I'm guessing a celeron+Intel hd graphics)

If you aren't planning on playing it/getting a new computer any time soon you can probably still politely ask steam support for a wallet cash refund.

Now that I've completed the Cell Games (do I need to spoil a 20+ year old franchise?) it seems the game wants me to actually start learning how to play properly. I'm only level 29 and I'm struggling with the four star parallel quests and get murdered in Gohan's alternate quest because I can't bring anyone with me.

Also I wish I could figure out what Hercule gives you as a mentor, because his first attack that you have to spam to unlock more is godawful. Dumped him for the time being to see what Piccolo brings.

do you even have to spam it? im hearing that you dont even have to do that and get good ranks. i'm still super confused on what it takes to level a mentor (despite managing to do it with krillin).

I think if you talk to the trainer, they'll drop hints on what they want you to do. For example, one trainer will mention winning without getting hit, and another will mention finishing an opponent with super moves. I'm not entirely sure if they're pointing you in the right direction or just making small talk, though.

Like every other 3d game ever, just get the camera jammed against a wall or other object so it's forced to get closer to you.

You'll only need a level or two. Nappa hits like a truck, but part of the grinding is just gonna be naturally getting better at the game and learning to dodge/block better.

Oh, and "Go do some PQs for a bit" is gonna be standard procedure for the whole game. Do a Time Patrol, go do some PQs, come do more Time Patrol, then do more PQs, repeat.

Get the Z-soul "Never give up" so it rezzes you once if you die. Also pick up some healing capsules, and use weak attacks to combo into your supers and ultimate. I did that fight at around level 5, haven't gotten roadblocked yet.

You just need to find a new mentor. Talk to them and you get to ditch your old mentor for them.

Oh yeah, I didn't even think of that - make sure you're using healing items and the like!
