Should I get this or DBZ Kakarot?

[McYoshisour]

I'm relatively new to Dragon Ball, and I'm having a hard time picking between this game (DB Sparking! ZERO) and another Dragon Ball game I saw on Steam called DBZ Kakarot. The only thing I know is different about the two is Sparking ZERO seems to be much more of a fighting focused game while DBZ Kakarot is more of a Story one. I just wanna know which one to get because I wanna get into this series. Thanks!

Just get Kakarot on sales or on IG, it's gonna be a lot cheaper and a better way if you're trying to get into the series. Sparking Zero is solely for fans, and you won't actually get the story on an understandable version.

So yeah, overall, you should go for Kakarot for what you're looking for.

And i just checked, on IG the game with all the dlc available is at 23€, so definitely affordable.

Ok, Thanks! I'll pick up DBZ Kakarot during the Steam holiday sale!

Kakarot easy.

Kakarot is an open world RPG with mid combat that requires spamming square and holding R2 to do special attacks, and the story is boring, making you collect red blue and green balls.
Sparking Zero is a 1v1 arena 3d fighter that lets you do combos, specials and grabs, very little single player content.

I mean, I'm not a fan, never watched Z or Super, except Youtube Shorts and I love this game, 43 hours

Completely different games.
Kakarot is fantastic and has an open world and a lot to do. A kind of Arpg.
The combat is simpler but still good.
The game is the most complete to date.
Sparking zero has lots of characters, as if it were an arena game, it has a story, but in slides, very good graphics.
First Kakarot, then Sparking.

Xenoverse 2 if you want a massive game.

It has a deeper system then Sparkling, with more combos and archetypes.

Kakarot goes over the story of Z (and Super if you use DLC) in great depth, compared to Sparking Zero. Sparking Zero cuts out so many of the story beats that it would feel weird at best, or confusing at worst to someone unfamiliar with the actual story. Kakarot is also solely single player IIRC, while Sparking Zero seems to rely on multiplayer to be worth its full price tag.
