Personally, I could see Super Saiyan Blue Goku being 73 trillion, assuming that Beerus is 100 trillion and Whis is 150 trillion. Remember that the absolute maximum SS 3 Goku could've been before getting God was 48 billion.

When you explain it like this, it does sound plausible.

It really doesn't, though. I mean, sure, Beerus is immensely stronger - but you're still just assuming that he's at 100 trillion.

He could just as easily be at 10 trillion, or even 100 billion, because we don't know what the multiplier for the God transformation is.

I just see ridiculously high numbers and tune out.

Anyway, Xenoverse 2. Looks kinda just like the first one, until I remembered that's how Dragon Ball games work. They just come out with new ones every year or so with minor improvements.

Although having movie villains, or including the TV specials isn't a particularly interesting selling point. For me. Who really cares if you can play as Slug? Does anyone WANT to play as Slug? Or Dodoria? Or 6 different versions of Gohan?

This is why I don't make the video games.

But then again, that aspect of the franchise has never really appealed to me. Unless it does something different with the story, I don't really care.

Leave those biases for when you're writing a story using existing characters not for developing video games.

Your thinking is too limited. Fill an entire roster with nothing but dozens of different versions of Gohan.

Do ya think during the production of Budokai 2 and Dimps were all like "Let's add in a few what-if forms," did they ever think it'd lead to full-on what-if games like Xenoverse and Heroes?

@Way up there (sorry I couldn't address it sooner; I was asleep): There's no reason to believe large numbers to be inherently less logical than smaller numbers, especially when you're getting into the kind of power that can destroy universes. A distance of 73,000,000,000 light-years is no less logical than a distance of 7.3 inches. 10 trillion is a perfectly reasonable estimate for Beerus, by the way, though I'd say that 100 billion is far too low, considering Beerus >>> Vegetto >>> Buuhan >>> Gohan >>> Super Buu >>> SS3 Goku. Late-series Power Levels are just estimates, but there is a great deal of thought and logic put into them.

Does anyone WANT to play as Slug? Or Dodoria?
Not particularly, I just mentioned Slug earlier because I had a hard time coming up with new characters in a tiered system like Super Sonic Warriors 2. Who can I justifying putting in this spot to fill out the level 3s, and the level fours, ect.

However, I do like the idea of playing as the Ginyu Force, and even Zarbon is somewhat appealing. And Aka. And I don't mind their being two or three different versions of Gohan...maybe as many as four with Great Saiyaman, though if Videl can get away with Great Saiyman II is a costume I guess he can too.

Slug is more interesting in, believe it or not, in card games like "Heroes", where there is room even for the extremely minor characters, allowing you to build/encounter Slug and his entire posse vs Cooler and his armored squad or Garlic Jr. and his followers, than in a fighting game. But if it comes to six different Gohans in a fighting game I'll take Slug and Dodoria alternatives any day, and keep Gohan at 2-4.

Great Saiyaman is a transformation, 4th Gohan is Future Gohan.

The one who has two arms but fights with one 85% of the time.

Given the Xenoverse system, you need exactly three slots for Gohan. Kid, Pre-Teen, Adult.

Kid gets his Piccolo clothes and Saiyan Armor. The former has mostly generic abilities, the latter has that attack he used on third form Freeza as an Ultimate.

Pre-Teen gets Piccolo's clothes and Turtle School Uniform. Former has Father-Son Kamehameha, latter has Super Kamehameha. Both have SSJ 2. Former is Perma SSJ, latter is not.

Adult gets his Great Saiyaman outfit (no helmet or cape), Great Saiyaman outfit (complete), his ROF outfit and Ultimate Gohan form. First has Super Kamehameha and SSJ 2, second has an overpowered unique pose that gives him massive buffs and a taunt or something, third has only the first SSJ form and the last one gets Potential Unleashed and Super Kamehameha. Though I could be down for him having a Super Masenko instead.

You only realistically need three slots and only Adult Gohan needs more than 2 costumes.

Future Gohan would need his own slot and maybe we can finally get him to only have the one arm to go with his mostly one-armed animations.
