Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot |OT| Legacy of Goku In 3D
- Thread starter Rika
- Start date
That's exactly what this game feels like. Broken Bonds and Rise of a Ninja felt like the closest thing to a AAA Naruto game, and this is the same for DBZ imo. Large world, plenty of minigames and side activities, simple but deep combat, it's all here.
There were supposedly handling some filler content, but some of it was omitted. I know stuff like Goku and Piccolo getting their driver's license was included but the Snake Way stuff wasn't.
Case in point Goku meeting Princess Snake and falling off Snake Way meeting Goz and Mez was all filler that never occured in the Manga. I guess that might be one reason why the Snake Way portion for the game wasn't included as almost all character reaction and events that occured from Goku's travel along Snake Way was entirely filler.
Now Goku training at King Kai's planet is another matter entirely and would have been nice to have.

Wow that is interesting. I would love to see some Asura's Wrath style quicktime events for some of the bigger Dragon Ball moments.
Good to know. I quite liked those games, so I'm totally down for a similar experience but in the DBZ universe.
Going off the ACG review, I might wait until they at least patch some of the bugs. It'll be fun to try eventually tho.
Other questions though which reviews haven't quite made clear. Are you required to level up to a certain degree to defeat the big bads for each season/arc? Does it tell you a suggested level to beat them? Like can you defeat enemies/bosses purely by skill, perfect dodging, memorizing how they attack, etc. without relying on items. Because it seems like collecting orbs to unlock moves and at least doing some side quests is essential.

So I finished the Sayian arc last night just under 7 hours of playing time. So far the game is fun and flying around the environment kind of took time getting used to. I think they did a good job world building from what they had to work with.
The game is easy so much easier than Xenoverse game, I didn't even bother with the community board or cooking for food stats. I never died or used any healing item till I fought Vegeta when I died like 4 times and decided to use an item.
I'm about to jump back in but is there any community board that's better than the rest? Which one should I focus on more?

Not really. As long as you're within 5 or so levels of the bosses you'll be fine. At worst you can use meals and proper items if you don't feel like participating in the side content. The main story makes it easy to stay around the recommended level.
Even though they're not bigger outlets, I scouted down a few more Kakarot reviews.

Yeah, combat sucks. I hate being thrown around everywhere while enemies just ignore my attacks and just stay there when they should be knocked away or against the floor or staggered.
They just ignore the attacks a lot of times and its been getting worse the further I get in the game.
Also enemies spam like hell. Feels cheap.

If you're talking about when the enemy is red you're not supposed to be hitting them while they are doing that. Either blocking (to maybe teleport) or being far away. Other than that the enemy never "ignores my attacks".
Not only when they are red. If they turn red I just fly away and use energy beams or kill blasts or I just wait and dodge/block.
Using a meteor strike against some of them will not work always and they will just sit there.
So in the area were Gohan trains before the Sayans arrive, there are these footprints that leads to Pilfa and his gang and a giant dinosaur sleeping inside the big tree. Does something happen there? I'm checking every time but nothing changes.
I'm loving this game, so many beautiful nods.

King kai and master Roshi for me. King kai gives exp boost and roshi gets you item sells and discounts followed by gokus next
The cutscenes being locked on PC at 30 frames is a massive disappoinment, actually a deal breaker for me. This might be insignificant or not distracting for many but going from 60fps gameplay to 30fps cutscenes in a second is bad IMO.
Where the fuck is this royal tomato. I've scoured the entire southern islands and found nothing but mangoes.
Go to goku house location and the guy will be in one of the villages
I barely notice it tbh, since I'm not in control.
I wouldn't use that .CT if I was you, 144 fps to 30 is a lot more noticeable lol
I stand by this feeling like a Dragon Ball theme park. It's a really simple thing but it's just nice to just fly around and see stuff like Goku's childhood house and where it could be in relation to Yamcha's old hideout etc... Brings a smile to my face and makes me want to rewatch old DB.
There's so many goodies. Especially with sound effects. I never tire of that descent sound when you stop flying and head towards ground.
I'm sure this has been asked and answered、 but... will there be DLC? Will other sagas be added?
There's a season pass that has a new story set and scenarios. No idea what they suppose to be
ugh just started Namek and after the first segment (where Vegeta kills Cui) the game stayed on a black screen and I had to force close :/ (playing on PS4)
edit: autosave kicked in right before this at least

Go to party and press triangle it's hidden behind a sub menu for some dumb reason
Just finished the Sayan saga, clocked 12hs.
I guess I can find the reminding characters for the graphic panel while exploring now.

The collectible cards are a really neat touch and really show the attention to detail this team had. I literally used to collect these same exact cards as a kid from a local comic book store that had a bunch of Japanese imported goods.
I find it weird you cant sense ANY power level from humans.... I mean after a couple thousand absorptions, cell was clearly getting stronger. A power level of 5 should appear as SOMETHING I think.
On another note, it is hilarious that child gohan's power level is so much bigger than krillin's pre-raditz. It's like this huge red fireball when you start using sense.

I maxed out the leaders first than start to strengthen the rest to increase the level even more
that's what i've been doing. it seems like the most direct way to deal with it, though the whole system is very inelegant
