I've seen some combos and it looks decent.

The supers completely kill the pace though.

I feel like Extreme Butoden is a good point of reference since that was also developed by Arcsys. Nappa even uses a Saibamen like he does in this game.

Nappa wasn't using a Saibaman in that clip. You make it sound like it was one of his attacks or something. [lol]

Extreme Butoden had Z-Assists; a bunch of characters were designated as support characters who you could call into battle to do a thing. Saibaman was one of those. Having Saibaman set as Z-Assist while playing Nappa is really flavorful, but it's not, like, one of his built-in moves.

6 will be Super characters and the other two will be permutations of Goku.

People are starting to believe 24 base roster with the way the rows are being ordered.

7ish characters left if this hunch is correct. 3-4 seem pretty obvious for Buu Saga characters (Gotenks, Ultimate Gohan, Super/Kid Buu), but the last few spots seem really toss up.

[up]Beerus seems very likely for one. I'm hoping for either Mr Satan, Videl, or Videl + Mr Satan (Videl is the point character and handles flight and Ki Blasts, while Mr Satan makes up some of her Specials and Supers). Perhaps Dabura might make it onto the roster?

I figure the DLC will be most of the newer Super characters.

What about GT characters? Any chance of Baby or one of the Shenron’s showing up?

I am rather impressed that were getting the game before the Japanese do.

[up] As long as there popular then they have a chance.

I think there's a chance for movie villains being in the DLC pack. Aside from Broly being a given, I've seen a surprising amount of support for Janemba.

Janemba would be amazing in this game. However you feel about his movie, he definitely has some of the cooler looking abilities.

I'd like to see Super Saiyan 4 Goku and one or both versions of Gogeta, personally.

Granted with Broly, Kale now exists. Hell, correct me if i'm wrong, but I think this is the first major game released after her debut.

Master Roshi would be a good idea to represent the original show. If not him, then how about Mercenary Tao?

At least Kale has some forms on her own so she's not a carbon copy of Broly.

Hoping my boy Bardock makes it in.

I think Broly gets at least a DLC spot on Popularity Power alone.

I'd be willing to bet on Roshi making the cut, especially with his recent showing in Super. He's definitely a classic Dragon Ball character with room for covering stuff no other member of the roster seems likely to, even setting that aside.

Beerus and Hit seem like strong possibilities for Super/post-revival characters — they're definitely hugely popular and carry their own distinct styles.

Broly feels like he'd have to be inevitable because, y'know, fuckin' Broly, his popularity is eternally maximum. I think I'd prefer Kale, personally, but if it comes down between one or the other, as things stand right now, I can't see her making the cut over Broly, at least in the game's first year.

I could kinda see them trying to push Kale as the new Broly, like using this game as a litmus test for her, but yeah, Broly's popularity power might just override her. Even though i'd prefer Kale.

Kale is way too new, and hasn't been making anywhere near the waves as Broly has. I can see her as DLC later down the line tho.

I love how everyone just wants to use her over Broly though, it's hilarious.

I don't know why they have to be mutually exclusive. As was mentioned before, she has a form that doesn't resemble Broly.

[up][up]Oh, I don't expect her to make base roster at all. I expect her to be midway to late in the DLC cycle when there's enough material to go off of. Jiren I also see being one of the last characters added.

They'll prolly wait till the Universal Tournament is over in case Kale shows off any more epic moves like a ki-blast worthy of becoming her Ultimate. This also works for Jiren cause he hasn't shown any epic Ultimates either.

These characters move-sets are based off their attacks in the show so its the wise thing to do. Broly already has his powers set so building his play-style will be easy.

God damn it, Arc doing this bs again. So much hoping for the Super characters being on the launch roster.

I'm actually surprised there are so many DLC characters, given that it's an Arc Sys game. They've never gone beyond (I believe) 5 or so DLC characters. Although thinking about it, 8 characters would cover new revision characters in Arc's normal games between Arcade newcomers and Console newcomers plus their DLC. So it's also probably indicating that we won't see a new paid version any time soon, which is good.

I am torn on this issue. On one hand, i'm happy we're getting many more characters. On the other hand, that's if it's clear that they're post development characters. Not ones that were clearly cut from the main game. Not a fan of them being announced at this stage, and if they keep the characters secret until they're revealed (Since I find that more of a gamble for the Season Pass) plus the release date at this stage when some characters aren't finished yet makes me worried if it'll be rushed or not.
