Hit stop in a Dragon Ball game. Whatever.

At least it looks nice, even if painfully slow.

I have a feeling Budokai 3 will remain my favorite. Not really interested in Dragon Fighter but we'll see.

Hit stun/stop is intended to emphasize hits and make it easier to play. This won't make it slow, Guilty Gear and Marvel (which this game seems to look like a combination of) are extremely fast games. Quite the opposite of "painfully slow".

One of the few Saiyans with genuinely interesting attacks, but he trash? Man...

I really hope they keep Super characters as far as possible from my dream dbZ game

and yes,i know golden freeza (uh..) it's already in.

Opinions like these continue to perplex me. It's fine if you don't like a particular character or element of Super but to dismiss it in its entirety? Dragon Ball as a franchise kept moving on even if the last time you seriously checked it out was in the 90s. The re-invigoration the franchise saw after the two recent movies and Super is the only reason games like this even exist. Access to more cool characters, locales and techniques can only be a good thing for the prospect of a fighting game.

 

[Mokujin]

Freezer killer Trunks, best Trunks.

 

[Raging Spaniard]

He still looks unfinished, or maybe Im not a fan of his washed out skin tone (maybe the lighting is just hitting hard) but hes one of my favorite characters so I am HYPED

 

[Playsage]

Dragonball was literally Goku climbing up Korrin's tower to drink power-ups inbetween World's Martial Arts tournaments tho.

That happened once.

 

[Stairouais]

At least putting characters from super in the game would make them look better that in that fanmade looking anime.

But hey, you posted one frame from an upcoming episode from an animator that animates episodes almost entirely by himself, so you probably know what you're talking about!

I very much like the superior sense of adventure instead of waiting for the next power up that Z introduced.

I have to say, this is still my favourite fight in the entire series.

Do you think this stuff you posted looks good?

Man the artstyle/coloring is so ugly.

Awww I was hoping for Dragon Ball Super Trunks.

Kum?

Great fight. Tenshinhan Vs. Yamcha was also super sick (actually, all of Tenshinhan's fights in Dragon Ball were pretty sick). Dragon Ball made me like certain characters so much that even when I disliked DBZ, I still cared about them.

[Stairouais]

And I'm being polite here. It looks like someone in the staff went all DeviantArt and decided to put textures on EVERYTHING.

That said, I agree that putting some non sayans Super character would be cool for gameplay variety.

 

[Icyflamez96]

[brinstar]

how are any of those clips Arched posted bad animation? y'all are wild lol

We really saying those clips look bad? Even the

Freeza vs Goku

? Really??

 

[Fj0823]

Because they watched a couple of old Super episode 5 memes on Facebook and convinced themselves that's the whole show and no one can tell them otherwise

Yea, you'd think at least that one would get some props lol

 

[Sheroking]

Pretty much, yeah.

There's bad animation in every Dragon Ball property. Super looks fine-to-good these days and has been a pretty good Dragon Ball show for the last 3 arcs.

Doesn't help that the dub hasn't gotten there yet.

 

[HazySaiyan]

In what world do those clips actually look bad? How ridiculous are your standards?

 

[Zalman]

Exactly. Plus super is starting to get pretty damn good. As someone who was pretty meh about it at first I'm super excited every week for what's coming next.

 

[Sheroking]

"It's not One Punch Man".

I've actually heard that shit.

 

[HazySaiyan]

Best thing about Super is that characters other than the Saiyans are relevant again.

"It's not One Punch Man".

I've actually heard that shit.

Very few shows are, One Punch Man's animation is on another level.

 

[Stairouais]

Because they watched a couple of old Super episode 5 memes on Facebook and convinced themselves that's the whole show and no one can tell them otherwise

Sure. Whatever.

I'm not saying it's not well animated. Dragon ball has always been 5 static episodes build up for 30 awesome looking animation.

The art direction is just bad. The colors, the textures on the auras, the backgrounds. These clips are bad. There're better examples of good looking things from DBS. Not those. But I guess I should be embarassed for saying that.

Super is terrible in every way.

 

[Sheroking]

Very few shows are, One Punch Man's animation is on another level.

For a good reason. It's a dozen episodes produced over a long period of time and not something that airs weekly for two straight years.

The cycle continues.

That's not how that works.

Bro... If you think Super is on par with early DB and most of DBZ part, then you're crazy, Super is GT kind of bad.

Now that's just silly

 

[Dragner]

So if the beta is going to be 9 characters, and looking that they were trying to balance heroes/villains my guess is that they will release a villain and someone neutral for the beta.

Like Black and Beerus for example. Or maybe 18.

 

[LotusHD]

I like how he said "most of DBZ" lol

Betting on Piccolo and Beerus

 

[Lifejumper]

Loving these hot takes. Beerus, SSB Goku and Vegeta are guaranteed go be in.
