Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot |OT| Legacy of Goku In 3D

I think the main difference is that even secondary battles could look good in those due to the great special attack cutscenes, while in this game only the actual important battle events really have battle specific cutscenes that look great, everything else is pretty mediocre, since the special moves are just real time special moves rather than having great cutscenes alongside them.
You realize that the Ninja Storm games where exactly like this? Hell those used tons of cheap panels like a anime that ran out of budget lol.
They keep using this song in their game trailers and it works on me every time.
I wonder what is going to be different with that 11GB day one patch.
That is one reason why I dislike review embargos. It's bad enough review outlets just getting copies a few days before release. I said this before, Namco isn't a small publisher and should have handled this better.

I don't think it's a coincidence that people got review codes the same day the big patch came out.
But again, thats exactly the same in the Naruto games. There are two handfuls of special fights with amazing production values, the rest are mostly normal fights.
Plus, we dont even know how many of these fights are in this game. All we know is that some of them are presented as little animated talking heads - which is completely in line with past games of the developer.

My point is that even the normal fights could look good visually in those due to the great special attack cutscenes, while in this game cutscenes like those seem to be limited to story-specific events, while standard attacks are just shown in real time without a cinematic presentation. So, the battles without any special cutscenes just end up looking bland in comparison.
For anyone who has the Xbox version you can swap to Singapore and play now. I've been playing for the last 20 minutes using the NA version I downloaded a few days ago by simply swapping to Singapore.
I'm a huge Dragonball Stan and I don't get this game. They seem to put a huge amount of effort and care into the world, graphics, and amount of content but then that's the battle system? Like do these anime open world games sell well because of the IP because the average gameplay is just such a letdown (thinking of one piece world seeker here). Did no one on the dev team play these battles where the AI is a sponge who floats next to you and constantly attacks the air?
I hope I'm wrong but I would bet the house on this game being similarly reviewed to World Seeker and being an average to below average game. It's a god damn shame but hey, at least we got dbfz.

I was going to skip this game since KH3 re:Mind and FF7r were so close together....can't wait now. Let's go further beyond!!
Preordered. Cant wait to play this. My most anticipated game of 2020. When does preload start on PSN?
I am gonna be just as bad more than likely at first.
Same here, really. I believe it to be below average or above average.
IGN Unboxing Of Collector's Edition
Man, all I want from that is the steelbook, lol. Hopefully people are hocking them after the game comes out or something.
I wonder why too. Is it to keep some stuff secret, or....
For real, that steelbook lookin banging
Correct. It's patched to 1.03 for us(that includes the big patch after 1.02).
Is that a street broken copy, early by switching regions or a review/media copy? I'm also on 1.03, playing the PC version.
I've been playing for about an hour and it's pretty good. I mean it's not great but it's pretty fun. Having to get back to that cc2 thing of using B to attack though lol.
I don't know if you can answer this but, is the framerate unlocked on PC ?
Also when's the embargo ?
Ok, trailer is fucking dope BUT
BUT watching the gameplay, the world seems boring as fuck and the combat look like trash
Embargo is tomorrow, framerate is solid at 60. Got some gameplay footage up on YT.
Storm 3 was not "leagues" above this. I just replayed it a few months ago. Still has the same issue throughout. And 99% of Storm 4 was in the final few chapters of the manga, so majority of it took place in a single location or two. Plus, don't act like you forgot all the people complaining about the still images we got instead of actual cutscenes. Honestly it might be worse than this.
And OP is more popular in Japan, but Naruto has had more world wide appeal. Especially in regions that are prominent in video game sales like the US and parts of Europe. The Naruto games are among some of the best selling anime games of all time, even rivaling DBZ.
me too, i think the last dbz game that has energy clash is raging blast
Spent 2 hours playing. Here is my impressions.
The cutscenes are top notch. Great voice acting and animations.
There are story bits that are told out of order. Similar to Dragon Ball Z Kai.
The animations are a bit stiff in the non-cutscene story bits.
World movement feels fluid and fast. Flying in the other hand will take some getting used to.
Combat seems simple. Like the Naruto cc2 games one button attacks with melee and one attacks with Ki. But if you just button smash you will get wrecked. Enemies telegraph their attacks, so you have to block/dodge them.
The skill trees are absolutely massive. It will take a long time to unlock them all.
