This game was fun for the first week, but I had to uninstall because people online prefer to cheese instead of just have fun. I'm not even playing Ranked, either.
Unblockables, Instant Sparking, Hyper Armor, Afterimage Strike, Roshi, Roshi, Roshi, Yajirobe's beans, Yajirobe's beans, Yajirobe's beans, more unblockables, more Instant Sparking, so on and so forth.

People have optimized the fun out of this game in favor of quick and easy wins, and it goes to show how much gaming has changed since the last Budokai Tenkaichi title was released. The first few days after release was the best because there wasn't a meta, it was just a bunch of dorks like me getting hyped over winning beam clashes.

inb4 skill issue, the cheeselords can have this game, it's entirely on me for buying into the hype.

Edit: Thanks for the clown award, I love free points, dumbass lol

Yeah the Roshi and Yajirobe spam coupled with unblockables and Insane damage with tiny ass HP pools is an insane overlook of the games development. Unblockables should be taken out in my opinion.

Same. I main Tenshinhan and while there are people willing to just have fun there's so many people that only play Super Vegito or the Gogetas or UI Goku and then act like they're hot ♥♥♥♥ after they almost lose anyway.

I like Gamma 1 & 2 but unless they release an OG Dragon Ball DLC (which considering they're wasting a pack on Daima characters doesn't seem likely) I probably won't even bother reinstalling.

I guess I'm just waiting for XV2 to finally die now so they actually release a third one.

Honestly the fact that this game is deliberately unbalanced and it's getting *mixed results* from the playerbase that have played more than 10 hours, goes to show how much we've all grown up from the PS2 days.

I main Frieza because I think Frieza's a very fun character :3

I don't do it because of buffs or unblockables, I do it because I like his character.

I wish more people thought like me tbh.

They tried I'll give them credit for that but as always when game get a next gen upgrade, there's always some major flaws and drawbacks the developers always seem to guarantee when trying to recapture older games.

Honestly If they removed instant sparking skills I don't think unblockables ults would be that bad, afterimage strike is just annoying though I don't know how they thought that was ok.

Good luck with the sales on SZ they're gonna be focused on updating it and securing that $35 DLC purchase

Have you ever experienced a Goku using instant transmission and and throwing a Genki Dema up your butthole? its extremely cheap and I advocate any such thing removed. Its hard enough trying to avoid a Spirit Bomb from anyone on the map, being locked off and one launched at you from behind is next level unfair! Same goes for Racoome and others with unblocable GIANT ASS EXPLOSION ULTIMATES like HUH?! Okay? I guess I'll just die? if you sparking and burst Dash behind me.

There is only 1 guy.... 1 GUY!!! who its acceptable for and that's Majin Vegeta.

True. I guess to be fair it makes sense to make the Spirit Bomb unblockable, but they really need to give the player more ways to escape or prevent ultimate attacks, you can't even use explosive wave anymore unless your getting hit.

Yeah there is so much more room for improvement It makes me wonder if they really even tried.

I didn't say anything about spam. I said that people have optimized the fun out of the game. Spam is extremely easy to punish. THAT is a skill issue.

Its not quite the spamming per say that's the issue. It's more to do so with janky guarding tools and unblockables among other things that's making it more of a pain. Like in Tenkaichi 3 and 2 spam was annoying but if you got good enough you can deal with it but on sparking zero, oh man, its just worse to deal with.

lol the roshi spam lol yall only play four bar fusions and have the audacity to complain about 2 bar fighters and yarjirobe beans . unblockables can be dodged lolol instant sparking who cares super counter em . no one talks about super fighters doing 2.5 hp bars a super attack gtfo just cuz your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ at jiren doesnt make roshi or robe op
kenshireando Oct 21, 2024 @ 3:28pm 
Yeah, unblockeables are busted; and resources also. You do nothing and in 2 second you already have like 3 skill bars, and when you wasted them, you already have 3 again.
There is very little risk in spending resources and huge rewards; that's very unbalanced.
