86. That's just for my main character. The others are all on different levels.

Pffft, hah.

Get grinding.

'Cause the phucker you're training under thinks it's a good idea to make you train all the way to 93 to let you complete his training.

I shit you not.

First the bastard says "O.M.G." now he's making me get to 93?! Fuck him, i'm finding Jaco.

Anyone else think there should be an update adding new items into the game? For example, a Saiyan exclusive tail and that Forehead Majin thing or whatever it's called. Or maybe the Dragon Radar that'd be hooked on the characters waist or something.

The hilarious part is that it also brings you up two levels, so it's actually recommended to wait to level 97 to do it. (Personal recommendation: Get to level 96 naturally, get to level 98 with the Unlock Potential boost and then make a wish on Shenron for the last level to 99).

It's also kinda sad, because Humans get Perma Unlock Potential, due to their ki regen. I'm wondering how long it'll take before it's patched.

I guess you're just skipping him completely.

In case you did notice, there's an exp boosting event going on right now. So you can get to 93 faster until the 23rd.

[up][up]So what happens if one is at 99 already?

[up]Nah, i'm just gonna ditch him for now and if I happen to see him again after i'm at level 93, i'll finish his missions.

Was not aware that there was an event going on. Is it like the free Dragon Balls and how you had to be signed in to PS+ or whatever?

The reason they're still treating guns as a threat is because guns are still a threat.

In the shotgun scenario, Goku is paralyzed, so no dodging or catching bullets. And a point-blank shotgun blast is simply too powerful for him to tank.

When an event is in progress, everytime you pick a character from the selection screen and enter online or offline mode, you will get an orange note and hear a jingle notifying you of an event.

Never had that happen in all the time that i've been playing this game.

Maybe i've just missed it somehow. I'm on the 'Game Start' screen so i'll see if it happens. And it doesn't happen. Just selected a character and it didn't happen.

No way you can't see it, you should notice it after the end of every mission.

No idea what happens if you do the quest at level 99. I did it at level 93 because I didn't know about the two level boost until it was too late.

Also seriously underestimated the amount of grinding you've gotta do.

Since I get that notification even when I play offline, it looks like you can't receive and events without PS+ on PS 4.

Well that sucks. I was going to get PS+ after I get paid this Friday but it'll be to late by then. Maybe i'll go pick up one of those Visa cards and just get it tomorrow.

I like how Jaco acknowledges a Saiyan character doesn't have a tail.

By the by, if you ain't got a human yet, you kinda made the right call on passing Unlock Potential for the moment. While it is a decent transformation, it only really shines in the hands of a human with 6+ bars of ki.

I was hoping the final reward was like a race specific move. Like Saiyans get Super Saiyan 3, Humans get Gohan's Unlock Potential, Frieza guys get Golden mode and Majins and Namekians get...something.

Do you visit any forums to learn more info on the game?

The only place I get any Dragon Ball related info from is here. Sometimes my friends say they've heard something but they're unreliable.

[down] I can't remember where I heard it but I could've sworn someone somewhere said that Saiyans get access to Super Saiyan 3 upon completing Elder Kai's training.

Okay, everybody here's probably seen this but it's still interesting. It's a complete translation of the big giant character guide in Daizenshuu 7. What I find interesting about it, though, is that its entries seem to sort of arc weld the inconsistencies between the manga and filler. The infamous Dr. Frappe, for instance, is said to have been Gero's colleague in developing the early androids.

Does this reflect Toriyama's views on this matter? I DUNNO LOL, but it's something that stood out to me.

It's very unlikely that it would. Toriyama simply has no reason to care about the anime discrepancies, it seems like the sort of thing the guidebook creators would come up with.

The show seems to have switched gears entirely now that it's crossed over with Dr. Slump. The Dragon Ball characters are just so different from the characters of Penguin Village. They're also wackier than even the wackiest part of Dragon Ball. I almost feel sorry for General Blue.

Oh, by the way, Octo-Papa may be either the best thing in the series or the worst. I'm not sure.

So, Dragon Ball Super.

Impressions:

  • Vegeta's jazz hands on the cover are the funniest thing in the entire issue. In keeping with his acknowledgement that he'll never catch up to Goku, he appears to have accepted his fate and is practicing cheerleading. If Vegeta must be a spectator, he shall be the GREATEST SPECTATOR OF THEM ALL. The Prince of All Spectators, if you will.
  • Goku trains by fighting fantasy spectres of his Greatest Hits. Tao Pai Pai, Piccolo, Raditz, Nappa, etc. are all snubbed; like the fanbase, Goku only cares about Frieza, Cell, and Pure Buu, no matter how thoroughly others have kicked his ass.
  • Goku is really bad at being an ordinary person. Like, so bad, you guys. So bad. He complains about having to get a job to support his family when the well of Ox King's immeasurable wealth finally runs dry, then tries to refuse a huge sum of money from Mr. Satan because it's so much money that he can't count that high and that intimidates him.
  • Speaking of which, Mr. Satan shows up to give Goku's family a huge sum of money after winning the fantasy equivalent of the Nobel Peace Prize for saving the Earth from Majin Buu. He just shows up with it out of the goodness of his heart because the man who redeemed Majin Buu with kindness is still the best guy.
  • This story is either a prequel to Battle of Gods or a replacement for it, probably the latter. Beerus mentions the Super Saiyan God dream promptly before falling asleep, which means this might be a retelling of the origins of Super Saiyan God, or it might take place before he woke up and began researching it properly. At this juncture, it is impossible to be certain, but my money is on prequel.

Other interesting tidbits from Daizenshuu 7: both Slug's crew and Garlic Jr.'s crew are listed as being members of the "Demon Clan." This is also the name gives to King Piccolo's sons who, of course, turned out to be mutant Namekians.

Think there's any connection to the Demon Realm race?
