After xenoverse 1, I was really hoping XV2 would be different and was specifically hoping it would have us have to play a villain throughout the story. Like goku is made stronger than he should be and doesn't die against Raditz, so gotta fix that to keep history in tact. So you would focus on fighting the Z fighters instead of saving them every time

I'm new to XV2 (started in August), still working through the story. I'll agree that more creative scenarios would make things more interesting. I didn't play XV1 so I avoided the deja-vu whiplash experience. The best storytelling moments imo aren't the fights, but the impact that the impetus to uphold history has on Trunks. It's emotional for him to see his beloved mentor and be told he has to let him die. He also watches Majin Vegeta detonate himself, but he's more mentally prepared to stay the course this time. I would say more of THIS kind of story beat would make the story stand out even more than the creative scenario ideas.

I came in expecting a low effort video with random scenes from the anime interspersed between the discussion but I really enjoyed the bold art and its reimagining of the shows artsyle. I always respect a video which tries to do its own new thing.

A lot of cocaine was involved.

I just hope they'll make a better story with no recycled scenes from the previous games for the third one. That is if we'll ever get a third one ...

personally i just wanted more unrelated minigames (or even related minigames) like the budokai games... and a sense of adventure. like the little milk run and turtle training can only keep me so entertained for so long. the games only really fun for me when my pals are online and we roleplay. for further context i do not play fighting games often but LOVE DB so my gripe is a massive personal one, i haven't touched this game since the Goku Black DLC too so idk what's new, I just hwve no reason to play it. my major problem (a personal one) is that im not good at fighting games, so itd be nice if there were minigames or something that slowly teach you how to properly play, or to take a break from all the fighting sweats online. like i know there's the school thing and training section (which ISNT multiplayer what the hell) but i feel we can have more things unrelated to fighting but its done in a subtle way that makes you used to the controls or teaches you proper timing or something. How about exploring these Conton areas! You got them all modeled up. fashion shows that teach you how to look drippy but also gets you more engaged with how the stats work, i know there's that clothing stat machine with Bulma but thats not as engaging (and again because if that i never jnew how to use it or wht it does. maybe if they didn't blurb me with long winded popup text and make it actually engaging I would've used it more). baseball with yamcha (or other minigames inspired by some of the mentors, or just the original Z Fighters, and with the way this game updates and has DLC they could slowly implement more memtor minigames for other characters) that teaches proper button timing. An optional potion making minigame that teaches you how make your Senzu stuff and stat ailment items idk! just more ways to feel engaged with the world of Xenoverse and Conton City. its really hard to explore the maps n stuff too when you got missions, time limits, or NPCs bumrush you, youre even graded on how much time you waste exploring. so i can't get that adventure feel frfr (DB was adventuring at some point yknow...?) just idk ways to improve that isn't offline lab. or just something ELSE to do. I know you gamers live and breathe fighting games but just having something else to do can relieve the stress of it a yknow? struggling with a mission? go play a unrelated minigame. sweats and modders gettin on your nerves? go play an unrelated minigame. just wanna oot up the game andmpkay something else with ur pals' CAC? minigames. It would make the world feel bigger too cus like what are patrollers doing off the clock anyway? minigames like pokemon stadium kind of small fun. and the games size or console limits isn't an excuse either GTA5 online is mad to the brim with minigames and iirc custim games made by players. You have a model for an apartment in Conton, have us make a room for our CAC and it can be where your team or friends can hang with their CAC privately i mean why not, you can show off to ur friends ur items or achievements, really push the mmo / online vibe they were selling back when I first got this game. Actually developing the relationship between you and the mentor (not saying it has to be romantic but itd be funny to have a series of options that push on romantic just to get funny reactions.) like you just.. Talk to them and get Generic Item and some moves most of the time I didnt even realize the friendship meter goes up. Make it more a challenge to the meter can go up or down depending in what you do and how you interract with them (Idk exactly what the meters for besides getting items, its been a while.), make it more a challenge when you interract with villains or arch enemies. This was my first DB game in literal years besides the Budokais just wish a lot of these anime games had fun and actually like be videogames.

2:36 does no one remember dragon ball fusions? Anyways I think this games story has a lot of potential with the whole fixing time stuff but it ends up just being slightly different dbz ft your OC when it could be really interesting if it embraced the what ifs. Even just having to help one the villains sometimes would act a lot to the game, adding a bit of moral ambiguity and showing that your job really is protecting the timeline and not being a Z fighter with a time travel gimmick. At least some of the DLC does interesting stuff (thanks Fu) which hopefully means a hypothetical xeno 3 would have a better story. I also kinda wish that the game had a bit more going on with the CaC in the story, like giving us more dialogue options even if they ultimately don't have an effect on the plot and maybe different races could act different during cutscenes. I mean it's the main appeal of the game so I think it would be cool but maybe that's too much.

Xv2 supposedly wasnt meant to happen at all. If we can believe the stories xv2 only happened after the reveal to the public against higher ups orders. But considering that xv2 came very shortly after xv1 was released it sounds plausible. Heck if it had more time im sure the story could have been much better. Some parts like when cooler shows up at both namek and the cell games were great twists and felt exciting on old stories. Unfortunately the base game doesnt have a lot of good changes storywise and it should be treated more of a xv1 2.0 aka gameplay updates only. Dlc content is much more interesting but their level requirements make them so damn grindy. Also most of those are pretty forgettable and how you access them or the order of accessing them tends to confuse ppl.

do you draw mangas, the art is very polished

Xenoverse has such a great concept that they did absolutely nothing with. We have time travel, why on earth are we going through the full story of Z in order!?

The problem with Xenoverse 2’s story is that felt rushed as hell. It could have more fun story missions, like have Turles actually help Vegeta after he gets his tail cut off, and your job is to keep Gohan alive so he can turn into Oozaru and to finish off Vegeta. Or have Slug try to kill Vegeta after he kills Dedoria. Or have Broly enter the Cell Games instead of Metal Cooler. Or have Janimba break out of hell and try to take out Kid buu, and your job is to take them both out. The movie villains were a cool idea that could have made the story fresh, but they just didn’t wanna do it.

Very much agree, great overall sequel to the BT/RB games. ( and just making it "sparking" zero in all regions is good since that was the original series name) Gameplay, visuals ,sound & roster all have been great fun. Tho the storymode does skip around & glance over things alot & fights are indeed all over the place, either they defend & counter perfectly or just stand there patiently as you charge ki or fire a kamehameha. And i agree that the "ready..GO" pre battle countdown is missed, you could reposition yourself in that period & it feels a bit odd to just fight right after the second character says their line. (Also that price, oof! 70$ minimum & 100+$ if you want dlc pass,thats heavy) But gripes aside its been a good time, the custom battle has produced some funny & at times genuenly awesome results (somebody on pc figured out how to put chichi over gokus model so you can play as her in that one) And the online has been fun , with the DP system that restricts you to a couple of OP fighters or a whole team of mid ones its been interesting to see the variety (when people arent unplugging that is, so odd that pretty the only fighting game that adresses ragequitting is MK with their quitality system that just gives the remaining player the point) Sparking Zero is a good time overall, excited to check its dlc & wonder if XV3 will be a thing after this ( & great vid Di, would like to see another future vid on SZ from you once its been out for a while, to see if thoughts will evolve & so you can do more drawings;)

As a fellow minority... That will they go to short white dude that call him monkey made me laugh 🤣.

For some reason i always wait fpr when subaru die not bc i hate him but bc the good stuff only happen when he start dieing

Real shit tho, re zero is peak fiction

I skipped all of the cutscenes tbh. Some of the best story bits are in pq's. I loved Gyniu and Ribriane bonding over style. That was freaking hilarious

I respect you hanging out on the fence for content creation.. but i truly beleve.. people who hate this show have a hard time looking in the mirror.. this show is so good.. no acception..

This show is legit a choose fucked up but happy sometimes your own adventure for subaru.

It only took them almost 20 dlcs to give us a plot that embraces fully the game's premise

You sir... are truly fanatical like a demon... my mind trembles after seeing this wonderful title, after all those blatantly rage/click bait ignorant hate videos no less, how slothful of them.........

I really love your drawings. They add so much character to this video. Especially the visual gags

Parent and child is my absolute favourite episode of any anime. It just hits on a deeper level Great art and amazing video dude! Found your channel from reddit Btw sorry if I'm wrong but you're Indian right?

What can I say? Way better than JJK

Fantastic Channel name 😂

The one problem I have with the story is that the Time Breakers always do stuff that helps the villains. Might sound stupid or there might be a reason that I missed, but if the idea is to change stuff to gather magic, why not make Goku able to beat Freeza in base forcing you to help Freeza, or Turles help against Raditz forcing you to act like the "bad guy" and kill Goku so he can train with King Kai? Or why not have Janemba take the place of Buu as the awoken Majin, forcing you to first beat him but then break the soul cleansing machine so Buu can be born, then bring him in the past to the fight with the Supreme Kais to make sure the events go like in the original? Better yet, why not make changes that only have a signicant snowball effect way later on but that are hard to initially find, like having the Masked Saiyan kill Goku in his sleep right before the Cell games and then seal away Cell: the change would mostly be there in the Buu arc, but the Time Patrol would have to check a lot because realistically who would look at the scroll of a random night before the Cell games if the problem is that everyone is too weak in the Buu arc? Also, just use the GT characters, for example (and this is the most boring, obvious and unoriginal concept I can think of that uses GT characters) say that when getting to the Time Nest Towa jumbled up the scrolls and now Beerus awakens at the Shadow Dragons arc right before SSJ4 Gogeta, nullifies the negative energy from Omega Shenron and then makes the Saiyans perform the God ritual, but after going God Goku charges up and becomes a SSJ4 again because that form is so strong by itself that if God Ki is added it's actually leagues above the unmastered SSJGod, and after the SKoT fixes the scrolls you have to take with you the excess Beerus, Whis and the God Ki GT Goku (who is now adult again) because they are too strong for you to just beat, explaining why you get Goku so late as a master and how Whis Gi Goku can teach you the Kamehameha×10, it's that Goku now training with "GT Whis".

Nice video, rezero is definitly up there with the other anime for me

The concept is outdated now, instead they should let us live in the the new possibilities instead of being time patrollers, just think about it... You enter the world of DragonBall... Either as Namekien living on planet namek, prior to Frieza invasion, as an alien under the renowned Frieza force... Or Live as a Cold member?? A saiyan being sent to worlds to conquer? Or how about an earthling... Training under either the turtle banner or part of the red ribbon army? You see these possibilities are much more exciting than reliving the canon story of Goku... If your actions shift the balance of the canon story... You may encounter a time patrol... This can make it so much more immersive than the garbage we've been fed over and over

Is this game on switch? Budakai tenkaichi 3 on Wii is my favorite dbz game ever because of the motion controls and maybe on switch they could bring that back?

I love your animation style and the music selection, new sub from this video! Would like to see more discussions on anime fighting games or anime in general!!

I think it'd be interesting if your race had an effectt on what characters said and did. maybe if you're a freiza race goku is less trusting and ends up getting the evil power and you have to help freiza (as you suggested)

I only played over 2000 hours of this game, and the best selling point for me are the super/ultimate skills, transformations that our CAC can use, and infinite possibility of builds that you can use based on super souls. The story might be bland at first, but you can get pretty interesting dialogue, and lore if you talk to npc during certain story arcs. For example one npc foreshadows the events of boss fight with Mira, and other comments on your power levels (there is also love triangle story happening with three characters).

With all the gaming technology developed with Kakarot and Sparking Zero, there is the potential for Xenoverse 3 to live up to the hype created by Dragon Ball Online, that’s been kept the story alive by the sea of mid-level titles that’ve dropped since we lost Dragon Ball Online. We’ve had the weird Japanese card game, Heroes, Ultimate Tenkaichi, Xenoverse, FighterZ, Xenoverse 2, I’m sure there’s more I can’t think of right now. But basically all the potential is THERE for the game studio to not fuck this up if they’re really going to make a Xenoverse 3. I really love what they’ve done with Sparking Zero, and I hope this technology is shared amongst other studios and it helps raise the overall bar for future projects. Sparking Zero is a work of art.

Maybe the cutscenes we are seeing at the 3nd are xenoverse 3s engine 🤔🤔🤔

This game should have atleast wated till dragon ball super was over at the least Then they would have so much time and things to add and changes to make I mean i find it so weird how xenoverse 2 came out a year after xenoverse 1 was made and nobody talks about it

I never played xenoverse 1 so i never relized this i feel like xenoverse 3 has crazy potential bc of sparking zero like ur cac going thru what if stories

You my friend. Earned yourself a subscribe.

THE HORROVLE GAME WHO STARTED THE SHINY IS RAGING BLAST

The story to me is ment to be like this. Its ment to be "you're just a random patroller" doing your job. But then as the plot continues you realize it's more than just abberational strength popjng up. But there's a demon god behind it and their higher up minions. Goes even MORE interesting with Bardockm ect

This was fantastic, man! Would love to see you talk about Spiderverse. Keep it up, definitely an underrated channel.

They atleast cooked with the Cell saga in the original Xenoverse

Man… those cgi xv2 cutscenes… if they got the game in that…

Nice Video👍🏻

I fully diasgree with the take of "other races got some love" Majin can only be fat bo with minimal to no customisation, no lewn buu, no super buu, and kid buu is transformation. And kid buu is insult of an transformation because it's just Kid buu character model turned into transformation, this is why all kid buu look the exect same. Only 1 transformation. Even worse, Frieza race, the race known for its 4 transformations, only has 1, and its Golden recolor. It's not love, its illusion of choice. Yes, you can play, not saiyan, but you won't be getting anything. Saiyan get SSj1 to 3(understable) Super vegita, because apparently Vegita is its own thing and not ssj Future SSJ, because trunks wasn't ssj at all God ssj Blue god ssj Blue evolved ssj-

Genuinely cannot imagine how much works goes into these videos. First I saw Phin one, now this??? You hand draw so much, and it's so damn good. Instant subscription, keep up the good work, man :)

Bro, I can not even measure how little I cared about Phin's "trauma" and character after her plan would result in the nuking of an entire section of New York, especially after Miles tries so hard to explain to her thick headed self.

Dragonball Z raging blast 3!!!

At least we get to beat the crap out of her at the end.

Xenoverse was a really cool idea to make playing the DBZ story for the 500th time more fresh by having outside forces directly intervene in events, I really wish we had more what-ifs so it was more obvious that "uh oh, that's not supposed to happen", rather than the villains just getting power ups. It shares the same nitpick with Sparking Zero's what-ifs where most of them don't explore how changes would affect the future and it's just "what if the villain/hero was defeated early" I mean, the idea is right there with Parallel Quests, where the whole concept is that you need to play out these alternate events in order to keep the flow of time balanced, even helping the villains win in some fragments. The base game could have explored those a lot further, or make that the main story and that's how the Timebreakers mess with history.

Saiyan saga Vegeta going super saiyan in Budokai 1, Broly going to Earth and fighting Goku in Budokai 3, ssj3 Vegeta and Broly from Raging Blast 1 and 2 all are good what ifs I wish we had stuff like that in Xenoverse 2. At least we have Bardock fighting Mira and going ssj3. Hope Xenoverse (when or even if that comes) takes advantage of a what-if story

Bro you can't hide it you're Pakistani ☠️
