Xenoverse is dead to me.

Toriyama is dead to me.

You are dead to me.

Here's another data point for the "Someone really hates Gohan" theory.

In Xenoverse, there's a late-story mission where [[spoileryou have to fight Vegeta, Gotenks, and Gohan]] (this is after Battle of Gods).

Gohan's the only one of the three with the standard 1 health bar instead of 2.

edit:

Wait, then again... That fight involves beating a mind-control curse out of the 3 of them. Gohan's dialogue suggests he's Fighting from the Inside. Is his health bar the lowest because he's the only one fighting back against the curse, meaning less damage has to be done to free him?

Makes sense, considering as a child he could bounce back the Spirit Bomb, it took a hell of a lot to get him to SS 2 against Cell, and he can ride Nimbus. Gohan may be pure-hearted enough to be able to resist Demigra's magic.

So wouldn't that basically be Towa and Mira's creepy creation/creator pseudo-incest baby from Online?

Also, kinda weird that Trunks keeps treating Mira as the main threat when. I mean. He's not. He's the muscle.

Yeah. Towa's the one doing the time jumps and (disem)powering people at critical moments. Mira's just there to pick up the energy she steals and take out threats.

Funny note. Mira's ultimate is the Negative Karma Ball. How the hell did he learn that move?

Mira/Towa is kind of like the Buu/Babidi dynamic though.

Trunks must be sexist, obviously.

I actually stopped keeping up with the playthrough like 6 installments ago. Has it produced any gems on the caliber of "KRILLIN TOO STRONK" or Tien vs. Super Buu?

I've loved their reactions to Dumplin getting body changed.

EDIT: Mira's relationship with Towa is actually not dissimilar to Trunks's relationship with the Supreme Kai of Time.

Or, actually, the player character's relationship with Trunks.

But with less fucking.

And offspring.

Which is kind of the weirdest part. Having a kid with something you made in a lab is really weird. Like, ew, Towa.

And abridged Dr. Briefs. Both of you are sick sick fucks.

There's been a few times of them cracking up due to Dumplin's Uncanny Valley but that's about it.

[up][up]It's probable that there was some original version of his wife that was an actual human being. I assume the current one is real. Would explain why he deferred to her about the bomb.

I think the end of Episode 10 of the Xenoverse playthrough was hilarious.

Maybe I'm the only one.

There was also one bit where Ginyu-Dumplin charged at the screen (with Dumplin's doofy face in full view) and they all screamed in horror.

Felt so bad for Kaiser there. [lol]

And the lack of check points continues to be fucking ridiculous.

Not really. The game clearly wants you to use items when fighting, and gives you the option to level grind. By the time I got to Frieza I had four different kinds of healers equipped, so it was way less ridic.

It's that fact that makes me wonder, the guys know how to use ultimates and items, why aren't they using them!?

Because I'm pretty sure the only ulitmate they have is the unbeievably crappy continuous energy blast thing.

And I don't think they've learned to use items yet.
