Actually, seems like 33. And there's a Dalek joke in that one.

I like Trunks taking the time whilst describing his first encounter with the androids to notice he's in an OVA and there's no filler in the fight scenes

The Vegetascream gag also deserves a lot of credit for the fact that the special doesn't comment on it at all. That's the sort of little thing that shows how much better these guys have gotten at comey since the early, meme-y days.

About 20 minutes in, just before Super Saiyan Trunks goes and gets his rear end beat. While he's talking with Bulma about the time machine.

So I got the Xenoverse DLC and gently caress me is the story awful, outside of Trunks trying to cheer on his "other [him]".

oh no it's great ape baby

Oh wait, great apes are trash in this game

oh no Freeza's army is out of hell

oh yeah they suck

oh no it's the ginyu force with nappa instead of ginyu

What the gently caress did you even come here for, GT Trunks? You're useless.

oh no it's super 17

Godammit, Goku, stop interrupting my combos

THANKS FOR PLAYING

Of course not, but they didn't even give the VAs proper direction. At one point Goku calls your Time Patroller "Pan" because no one understood that you had helped Pan, and instead assumed the line was "you helped, Pan."

They didn't mix up the voices though, just the names in the dialogue boxes (which was lovely but that's on the programmers).

Gohan was, and since those three are all half saiyans, it's reasonable to think they'd all have been born with tails.

I don't have the saiyan genome project handy, so I couldn't tell you the chances of a half saiyan being born with a tail.

There's not much to it other than Beerus mentioning there's 11 other universes, some with people even stronger than himself. Pretty much just Toriyama setting up the eventual power creep if more movies get made really.

lol if you think Toriyama even remembered Saiyans had tails at that point in the story.

Don't think that happened in my copy. Might have just laughed it off, though.

This is actually an excellent point. The last time there's any mention of a tail is when Gohan's grows back in the fight with Vegeta. They both lose their tails there and never grow them back again.

Well, it is Yamcha. He was probably just happy to have made it through a fight without dying for once.

I want to believe that's a deliberate joke on how that's the only saga where Yamcha doesn't die.

There's some weirdness going on with how the story views you CaC's gender. In some dialogue they use non-gender-specific pronouns, in some they use "he" and "him", and in a couple they use "she" and "her". It's really weird.

Nothing in this game is anywhere near as close to being as bad as Ultimate Tenkaichi, where the characters would switch between their Kai and Funimation voices in the middle of a cutscene (so one second you were listening to Linda Young as Freeza and the next it was Chris Ayres)

Xenoverse is a bad hunting and fighting game (and I already like neither)but I appreciate being able to make a Saiyan lady who can do Ginyu dances and be a time cop. That said:

1. I haven't played one of these since Budokai 2 but cutting transformations is a load of poo poo.

2. I hate Trunks' voice (and Frieza's, I mean come on DBZA did a better job) and Time Kai, also everyone calls me a dude all the time.

Broly clothes are open for everyone and geared for physical attackers.

Or you can swap to being a Freeza and have all of your custom gear always be physical based forever.

My biggest complaints about Xenoverse are the RNG and how utterly, utterly useless Ultimate attacks are.

So far all I have found is Raditz and Ginyu gear (and just one piece of that) and I am at the very end of Freeza's saga. Guess I am stuck with my gym shorts for now!

When you beat the game the Time Patroller outfit is physical based. Also how are Ultimate attacks useless?
