I guess one could say you're trying to get...

cool

I was wondering how long it'd take for someone to make that joke.

So Super 17's Z Soul is fantastic, like I hoped it would be on my male human melee character. the reduction in total Ki the Soul gives you makes it easier to activate it's damage bonus.

My new favorite for my Saiyan is 'Okay...Here's one from me!'

[down]Have fun with that. I recommend having an ambulance ready for when you pass out from blood loss. Because you'll be crying blood you see, or rather won't see. Because of the blood. That you'll be crying which will obscure your vision.

I think my new plan for now will be to Z-Rank every story mission and Parallel Quest.

Isn't it weird there's a ton of Saiyan transformations and only a few are numbered?

Made a male Saiyan named Quas(Squash). I want to make him the opposite of my Ultimatum Ki blast spammer female Ressele so he's going to max Strike Supers and Max Ki with the rest of the points going into basic attack. I gave him GT Trunks' outfit to boost those stats and the"I'm Super Saiyan Goku!" Z Soul to take advantage of Super Saiyan 2.

You know what the movie reminds me of? The Buu Saga's self-mockery taken to its "logical" extreme.

Broly is a joke/reviled in Japan.

He got three movies because his creator fell into a rut where his answer was "MORE BROLY" and he for some reason couldn't imagine villains stronger than Broly.

@Shlugo That gif is fan-made, in case you didn't know. Not how Blueper Saiyan will look in the movie.

Since Heroes referred to Goku's base as "Saiyan beyond God" I was going with "Super Saiyan beyond God" until this. Much prefer that name...

Oh and while they use Japanese characters Super Saiyan still uses the English word super so if the SS stands for Super Saiyan (99% chance it does) then this IS "Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan" even in Japanese. Well, swap Saiyan for Saiya-jin but yeah.

On East vs West values... I think Dragon Ball had a balance about it rather than strictly following Eastern values. Big dudes were still plenty threatening even though they weren't automatically the strongest. Even when the muscular graded forms were ditched for Super Saiyan, that was still a form with more muscle than base.

The newer content doesn't really have that balance though.

I was kinda hoping to play Xenoverse one day but all the horror stories I've heard about RNG mechanics are a massive turnoff.

Anyway, I'm adopting "Super Cyan" as a name for the new form.

You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!

[up][up]Didn't he make a blog or something after Battle of Gods that basically boiled down to 'Screw this, Broly is still the best!'

And suddenly my Ki drain with Super Vegeta 2 is screwed. Before it drained about the same as Super Vegeta. Now it's draining like three bars a second. I wouldn't be surprised if the anti-cheating crap that was added with the last patch is fucking with Single player. This is why I tend to avoid games that seem to focus on Multiplayer, they can't 'fix' one mode without screwing with the other. Guess i'll have to find some new method to grind outfits since it looks like spamming my ultimate isn't going to work anymore.

I'm gonna blame the Japanese player base for this grinding crap and everyone else for the 'fixes'.

[up][up] but that was already coined for the Super Saiyan eye colour, which is closer to cyan!

Is it just me, or is the RNG a lot more generous after the update?

That's been noted from what I've seen.

I feel like it is too.

Still not generous enough for my tastes, but more generous.

How long would this game last if there was no RNG at all and you could get everything 100% guaranteed by doing X?

The attitude that a fighting game even needs an excuse to have any length it wants is part of the problem with Xenoverse's approach.

It's a fighting game. Players are here for the gameplay first and foremost. All the RNG does is make unlocking content to use in that gameplay frustrating as hell.

Probably not as forcefully long, but would be played more since there's a lot less tedium and annoyance involved.

[up] Exactly that.

The kind of player who wouldn't stick around and play the hell out of it even after unlocking everything is the kind of player who's already not going to tolerate Xenoverse's RNG bullshit anyway.

@Saiga

Are you sure about this? Because the Broly tag on Pixiv has more art than the Freeza, Cell and Majin Buu tags combined.
