Bun

I like this.
The only thing I dislike, is that programs like this show up in game activity and clutter the "top played games" list even though they are not games.
So now I have 2 vtube programs, stream avatars and who knows what other programs in that list.
It's just pure clutter at this point instead of just showing the games.
Wish steam allowed to change that, instead of just setting it to "public or private" for the complete list.

Anyway, back to reviewing this.
Program is easy to use and comfortable.

I'm sad that the game is over and I can't experience the story for the first time again.
I played through the game on hard and it felt like a good difficulty to start in.
The world size and how many side-things there are can feel overwhelming at times, I would say the trick is to beat the current land completely before actually going for the quest goal, that way it feels just right.

I love the main character so much, she's awesome!

I didn't love a game as much as this since Divinity Original Sin 2.

It was my first MMO 15 years (or so) ago, I loved it a LOT and I would have recommended it easily back then, but these days all the classes are crazily unbalanced to the point where I picked a class, had really great gear and struggled with a bossfight for 2 minutes while my partner with a different class, who barely geared up, almost one-shot the boss.

I do like the new'ish pet system though where 90% of the monsters in the game are obtainable as pets.
Also the ideas of the classes are kinda cool.

IF they balanced the game to the point where all those new classes were able to do party quest with other classes including the very old ones, then I would recommend it, otherwise no.

Fun game, easy to play with the preset controls. (using Xbox360 controller)

Bought it on sale for 15 Euros and it seems worth it.
Would definitely not pay full 60 Euros for it though.

Bought 1 DLC with Videl because I just love the character, so far it seems like DLC characters can ONLY be used in free-play and not in important game-modes like Xenoverse allowed. (Which was always quite cool.)


One thing I will complain about tho.
No matter what language you put your game, Android 21's voice just sounds soooo horrible that I end up skipping entire dialogs just to avoid hearing it.
Who came up with the idea "Hey let's have a 13 year old voice act for the main enemy in the game, it's gonna be epic!"

Overall:
Get the game on a sale, you will probably enjoy it for a few days.
DLC's not really worth it unless you plan to play more than just those few days lol

"The soundtrack is sooo epic, I want this game."
...
...
5 hours into the game and I felt mentally AND physically exhausted, but I just didn't want to stop!
5 hours later and I'm actually through the game.... or am I?
o_O
It's so freakin addicting!

Strawberries, crystal somethings and more levels, here I come!

First I must say, I don't ever play with anyone, so the whole experience is with the AI etc.

I may also say that I play this game rather slowly because I watch 1 Saga, then play 1 Saga (it's actually quite fun that way)

Controls?
The controls are very simple, not as good/fluent as the 2nd game, but it's good
Very easy to get used to it, a matter of seconds.


Difficulty?
I should probably mention here that I try to balance all stats to the same number, which makes me not excel at anything there
I'm NOT spamming super attacks.
With that said, the AI is quite hard in this game (compared to the XV2), but that makes it really fun!
The one problem I have with the game's difficulty.... that they add other player's time patrollers into normal missions from time to time...... The problem you ask? I barely learned 2 attacks which are far from what I want in the game, then suddenly a Patroller on LV1 comes spamming all kinds of Supernovas and stuff, one-hitting my AI members and leaving my own HP at around 1.....
Stuff like this MAY break the game a LOT since it creates a need to replay the mission from the start...... (quite long at times) and hoping for a better enemy time-patroller.


Customization?
I love it!
I can create whatever I want in this game, It's really not missing much, but from what I need, I got everything.
LOTS of costumes - "Seen something in the Anime? Play the game and unlock it!"
Which also leads to the idea of... "Farming" which appears in 90% of all reviews xD


Farming! *brrrr*
-I come from a lifelong obsession with Final Fantasy games, played all of them, loved all of them, so farming is NOT new to me.-
While it's true that certain items require quite a bit of farming (usually around 4-5 times repeating, unless you got horrible RNG), the thought pops into mind, WHY would you need every single item in the game? You will NEVER use all of them ;) so just farm whatever you think you REALLY need (which also gives a bit of randomization to your character)
-
Sure there is a few things that even I farmed, (including SSJ2) which took a bit, but its not the worst really
(I farmed waaaay longer for certain weapons in FF14.... the Leviathan weapons for example, takes way longer)
So the truth is, the farming doesn't even take THAT long since you dont farm for every single item in the game (but if you did, it would take weeks xD).


Story?
It follows the Z saga (except in the DLC), It adds slight changes, like "Raditz gets a Powerup while being held by goku, making him able to break free of Goku's grip, making Piccolo only hit goku"
Oh no! That tiny change creates a whole ripple effect which then creates chaos!
So, thats where the player pops in, the player is there to FIX those time-changes.
With Raditz's example: The player has to weaken Raditz to the point where he definitely can't get out of Goku's grip, even with that extra power surge. - thats pretty much it.
So we follow the story, see whether there are changes, fix the changes.
Then the question pops up. "Why are there changes? Who did this??" - No spoilers.


Transformations!
Ah really dont like this...
Saiyans get everything while the others get nothing.
------
Dont read this part unless you like random rants about content that doesnt get added...
------
Thats a point that annoyed me quite a bit when playing Buu characters (which was my main before)
Saiyans get SSJ1 and SSJ2, while Kaioken can be used by everyone, but its nothing special anymore if its not a Freeza 2nd form thing :/
I really hope that at least the 3rd game gets epic transformations (not like in the 2nd game where female buu's transform into a male kid-buu (thats just sad...) )
I would LOVE to have even a character creation for female Freezer characters, where you can customize the 2nd/3rd/4th form (if not more) (or at LEAST make transformations look different based on your characters look, not like whatever you did with the kid-buu thing, its the lamest thing ever!)

Rant over

All in all, the game is awesome!


Before this game, I only played a few DB games, but not much, I never fully watched ANY of the shows.
But playing this game, I decided to watch the whole show from the very start.
And now I started playing every time I watch through a Saga. (which makes the game even better!)

Also I deleted my 2nd game's save (where I was already through the whole game) just so I can import my character from the first game as the City hero after I finish :D

Even if you are just a slight Dragonball fan (like I was before), you will love this game.
(But if you dont care about its story and only care for the gameplay, get the 2nd game Xenoverse 2, or wait a bit, I heard they are releasing a 3rd at end of this year)

if you want hentai with a bit of gameplay, then this might be for you
guess it was a bit too much for me, i stay with games where characters are a bit more logical

I hate this game for giving me so much nostalgia that I almost cry...
This journey me, Sebille and 2 others went through, I wish it was endless, I was sad enough to have ended the journey and having to leave them behind, but now?
It's about a month now that I played this, and the sadness never goes away...

If you want to get your heart broken, go on play that game.

Oh also, the gameplay, music, editor and every single thing in this game "including the support on the forums" is just the best I ever had!

I will never forget the great time we had... *wipes off tears*

Fun game if you just want to shut off for a while!
Lots of characters to play, can play as long as you want, the difficulty always rises!
Lots of things to unlock!
Game is really fun to play with a friend.

Oh and to those who like feeling powerful, THIS is the game for you!
In the end you will feel like an endboss or something, killing things by just looking at them!
