Guys, Freezas can just go Gold and purple! It's the perfect power up
What's cool is that with Frost as a basis, you could build an entire moveset about debuffing now as an alternative to Golden Frieza style transformations.

I hope Xenoverse 2 does that.

I don't know how you'd implement it, but letting nameks become giant would be cool. Suddenly turn it into an Oozaru fight except you're the Oozaru.

Did Trunks tell Mai about the Saiyans etc on their many dates, because I don't get how Pilaf and co would even know what a Saiyan is. Last time they were around they thought Goten was Goku.

It shouldn't be too hard, just upscale the model on transformation, increase stats, bam. Make stamina lower while you're giant, and have each level of transformation make you bigger than the last.

Namekians immediately become fun to play because now you can be the giant monster!

Considering how many times the phrase Super Saiyan was said around them I'm guessing they picked it up.

My favorite part about Xeno2 is that it would be completely canonical for them to allow you to customize the color of your top-tier frezza transformation. No reason you have to go Laker unless you really hate Saiyans too :v:

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

Xenoverse was a great game bogged down by a lot of dumb annoyances that could easily have been removed, hope they learned from the first one and will polish it up more

Babe Magnet
Jun 2, 2008

A lot of those annoyances were likely caused by them not having a great budget and their publisher making them rush the game out. Like, I feel comfortable betting that the grind was so ridiculous because of a last-minute decision to "extend the life of the game" because they couldn't get in some other stuff they wanted to.

Another example is that with some minor file tweaks, the regular clothing sets actually are recolorable already, another feature I'm sure was cut at the last minute because they were in such a hurry to get the game out the door.

Everything changes, Pit.

Xenoverse being a huge success was a total surprise for everyone involved, so for a sequel they already know it's going to do really well and can put some extra time and money into making it even better

It's gonna be good stuff

Or they just waited a bit to announce it, it's not like it's an Uncharted or something that they would want to build hype for it over a period of several years and announce to their investors as soon as it has a graphics engine.

Even aside from what Augus said, "Xenoverse but polished up a bit" could be a really loving awesome game if the polish goes on the right spots.

this only makes sense if we were talking about the release of the first xenoverse game. the game that this is a sequel to only came out a year ago

My A-Number One kokoro wish for Xenoverse 2 is to not have any moves locked away from the player. I'll admit I don't really care about the clothes but not being able to do the Super God Fist is true injustice.

Clothes were whatever, but actual moves shouldn't have been locked to a loving rng hell. It becomes really easy to resent the game when you do everything it wants you to perfectly and then it decides "No you don't get this" at an 85% chance for one of the game's most prominent features.

Xeno was also really annoying with the "Mentor" system, and how obtuse it was to see if you actually were gaining ground with them. :( That grind was real and I still hate it. I have been trying to get Tien's Z-Soul for too long.

Goku isn't a bad parent, he's not a parent at all really. He is just the oldest child that Chi-Chi takes care of.

Regarding Xenoverse 1: Anyone know of double damage mods, in that both player and opposition take double damage? The one thing holding me back on loving the game is just how long the fights take.

I'd be happier if they replaced RNG with conditions for unlocking the moves, sort of like imposed challenges that are set that you need to beat.

Chi-Chi apparently somehow raised Gohan to be a talented well-educated scholar who has a healthy stable family life despite him spending ages 6 to 11 fighting space monsters alongside Satan, a midget monk and several crazy space aliens.

She is a loving phenomenal parent apparently.

Pretty much. The side missions could be annoying as hell and the fact that the game would randomly decide to give you stuff, even upon fulfilling the conditions. How this made it in the game is baffling.

Edit- it'd honestly prefer a system in which you unlock stuff by playing the story, or some side missions and then you can use in game currency to buy the stuff you want. Problem solved.

You know what would have been pretty cool?

Have Goku train ChiChi to be a better fighter.

She was arguably stronger than Yamcha (Big shock) back in Dragon Ball, and she has natural talent as a fighter.

It would have been way more interesting if she got involved in some of the action herself instead of acting like a lovely version of Bulma.

Lunch had more raw fighting talent than Chi-Chi, Tien should have trained her too. The could have fused and become a respectable fighter, Lunchi
