Purchasable Auras
I brought this up in another thread but felt it deserved its own thread.

One key problem with this game is that there was no thought to how the economy would work. Now people have amassed immense wealth and have nothing to spend it on. Costumes and moves are relatively inexpensive and the vast array of in-fight consumables doesn't make them any more useful or desirable.

So instead of each DLC simply being a cookie-cutter collection of a few more throwaway story missions, a handful of moves, clothing items, PQs, Z-Souls, and a new master or two, I have an idea for a better addition.

Purchasable auras.

Being able to choose your own aura colour was a bit of a glaring omission from a game which has the main selling point of being able to customise your own character. Now you even have people editing their game files so they can get what they want.

But given the lack of anything to buy, why not make this an actual feature? Give each character an additional equip spot that they can use to change their race-specific aura. Charge one million zeni for basic colours, (red, blue, green, pink, white, purple - maybe save yellow for Super Saiyans only,) charge multiple millions for auras with special effects, (red/blue/green/etc with electricity sparks, Buu steam,) or always-on auras, (such as those specific to SSJ God Goku, the SSJ4 characters, and "dark" characters.)

Hell you could even make a few rare ones Dragonball wishes because by now most dedicated players have run through the useful ones.

A relatively easy addition that would make a lot of people happy and would give some purpose to zeni. Far better than samey DLCs and charging 750,000 zeni for Yamcha's shirt with a straight face.

I think it's a brilliant idea but then of course I would. Thoughts?

Gotta agree with this, color customizable auras would be very cool to have.

If we're on about making money sinks while players can further customize themselves, I'd also suggest more outfits with adequate stats, or the ability to modify the stats on existing clothing for a fee. The ability to change the color of some abilities too (yellow kamehameha?).

Yes! I'd definitely change my aura color instead of having a preset that's the same as everyone else. They should definitely add it. Even if they make it really expensive, who cares since a lot of people have so much zeni and nothing to do with it anyways.
I approve this message

Trying to run away from my response huh!? Kaioken x10!!

Again, I support this idea. Auras would be a very nice addition.
id rather be able to select the color of any equipment i want. probably gonna be DLC pack 4.

Well I'd be a nice Zeni sink. I got over 25 million zeni and jack to spend it on. Altho I could buy the DLC equipment to get my completion bonus up I guess...

Right now once you've grinded PQs to near death (for drops -- full Vegito set huzzah!) money is no longer meaningful in the least. I'd be cool if the clothing/accessory/skill shop to have a chance (or guaranteed chance) for a rare item for a crazy amount of zeni too. Make it like the master system -- always one rare item that is not purchasable the same way only one other Master is in Toki Toki.

great idea!

I agree as well. I think we need more things like this. I'm actually pretty upset they have talked about making DBZX2, because I feel like this game has so much more potential left.
Habi16 Apr 25, 2015 @ 2:49am 
I think implementing some accomplishment items would be a huge improvement as well.

If they're already talking about making Xenoverse 2, then development on Xenoverse 1 is done. Not to mention implementing this sort of thing, no matter how cool it would be, wouldn't be such a simple task. Perhaps we'll get something like this in the next game, but thinking they would implement it in this one is a fool's errand.

It's a fool's errand if you don't realize how easy it actually is. Any content you can imagine can be implemented through DLC. It's the same way you download anything, so you're wrong.

agree. tons of things left or might be added, but its way more profitable make the same game with the same engine and add some stuff that they missed here :P

Well, why don't you just go ahead and make the DLC yourself then? I mean, since it's SO easy to do.
