Getting into a game like Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, especially after its long run of 8 years, can be a daunting task. It feels like stepping into a bustling city where everyone seems to know where they're going except you. But the biggest barrier I found when trying to get into Xenoverse 2 wasn’t the game itself but actually the store page.
#xenoverse2 #dragonballz #dragonballsuper - Ігри
The total price of the DLC is misleading on steam, and that's a flaw on that store page, it puts both the individual DLC AND the passes together, so you're essential doubling the price.
It's still a odd choice not to have an option to "buy all the passes" instead.
I understand That people are cringe but there's good people in the fighting game community like any other Xenoverse just might have a few extra undesirables in game / people with anger issues. So look it's a community good people and bad people co exist
Yeah.
It's not odd, it's a way to make people spend more money lmao
i get that feeling about fighting game communty but steam is the worst paltform because of all the modder palying in offline so alot of events are unable to get partys the piece for xenoverse 2 is less than what on steam store because dlcs packs with the pack and signals are sold side by side buying the base game and each dlc that says pass and pack set cost not on sale i 150 dallors the that with legend pack set for the xenoverse 1 story added and conton vote pack i did not incude pre roder and music packs in the caclation becuase dlcs are sold beide there none bundled sets the peices are much higher to start out each pack has it own singal pack version and is set version of all dlcs in a given season some of them have 4 pack some have 2 pack bundled with a slight discount the ps4 version i and alot of firends palying alot of the communty takes it kinda like a mmo less like aaenra fighter there is alot of stuff you cant really do with the ai they give you for teamamtes even i bad palyer in xenvoerse 2 is better than a bot palying to it best so online is ususlly not that toxic beside the random ppl kicking you because they invited firend to a lobby for a pq and did not put slots clsoed because lazy dont go into aerna if you dont want to fighting game communty vibes
Hidden, since you have played many of the DBZ games; how about you try a different Anime game? My personal suggestion would be Anime/Manga series Astro boy. it's an older Superhero Anime series which started the entirety of Anime/Manga from the 1950's, 1960's, 1980's and then was remade again in 2003 and 2004 Anime series. Astro boy has a movie that was made in 2009. The game's are older, but there not all bad. The Astro boy on the Game boy Advanced is one of the best games. Just give the franchise itself a try and see for yourself if you like it or not.
Xenoverse 2 will LITERALLY outlive us at this point lmfao
It wouldn't surprise me
Xenoverse 3 is just gonna be DLC for Xenoverse 2 🫠
I was 16 when XenoVerse 2 came out now I'm 24
I was 14 when the game came out in 2 now
I was 10. And now I’m a fucking adult ( 18 )
You can guarantee that Sparking Zero will be supported for at least a decade.
DOA6 be like are you challenging me?
It's not even close to DoA6 let alone 5.
The fact that the game still receives support is crazy, it really is one of bandais favorite cash cows
>I ain't poor, I just ain't got no money
I feel personally attacked
There’s 4 more dlcs coming this game won’t stop taking my money
Do you think they will ever make a 3rd game or just keeping adding DLC forever lol
@@HiddenChanneldlc until the horse has long disintegrated.
@@HiddenChannel dunno this game will defo have some crossover events with sparking zero for sure
They would be stupid to make a third game. Packing in more than $161.90 worth of paid dlc into “another sequel” and only charging someone for it all for only $60 is a horrible business decision. They’re already adding stp to the game because of losing profits from people modding their saves and tp medals and such. That says it all really,
@@HiddenChannelWith how they kept pumping DLC for XV2, but seem to have had interest on working on other games like FighterZs, Kakarot, Breakers, and now Sparkling Zero, I kinda doubt there will be a third game.
I feel like once we get Sparking Zero, and if it’s to out expectations, then not as many people are really gonna want a XV3, maybe that’s me.
This is definitely a problem for users that have played the game as well. Pretty much a lot of us don’t wanna keep spending $30 every few months for more mediocre-solid at best content for a game that came out nearly 10 years ago.
At this point I’m ready for them to end the support for this game and just give us a bundled rerelease that includes all dlc content in this game
I always come back for the Dragon Ball content but what makes me stay is your humor hahaha
Dang. Good thing Battle of Z isn’t that expensive. When you cover that, it’ll be a lot easier to get ahold of.
As someone that has kept up with the DLC since the game's launch, ohhhhhh yeah, there is so much goddamn DLC
This is the first UA-cam channel I've hit the join button for. Love your content and disposition. It's an absolute vibe. Keep up the incredible work and growth. Can't wait to see where you are in another year!🎉
The problem with releasing new DLC forever is the player base keeps dwindling.
Like it’s hard for me to find an online match, or get some parallel quests
I guess the devs realized there wasn't a point in making a Xenoverse 3 when 2 is profitable enough as is and lacked the issues the first game did. The game was capable of surviving on content updates that were also less taxing on the devs to make than a whole new would be as well.
Hidden, I love your videos so much, you're so endearing to watch. Much more genuine than all these high production, overly polished gaming essays everyone puts out these days. Please don't change and keep up the great work.
And I'm sorry if that one comment of mine in your video a few months ago has offended you, I meant no ill will, and it was stupid.
The best thing they could do in my opinion is number them in order.
Super Pack 1 (1)
Super Pack 2 (2)
...
Extra Pack 1 (5)
...
Ultra Pack 1 (9)
etc.
That way, there's no need to scower through the store pages looking at release dates
As a veteran player I am happy to see you step into the world of XV2. But I do agree that their is a better way to sell this game which is actually already out in Japan only. In Japan you can actually obtain the ultimate edition, containing all the DLC and it's dumb that it's locked to the JP version. Well except for Chronoa which is an event-exclusive character but you can use Save editor on PC to unlock her. Overall I agree with your take and I hope you can stick around to enjoy the content. Also since you're on PC check out a lot of the mods from the community like Revamp which remasters the game in a whole new way and I actually prefer that version.
small bit of advice for anyone who finds themselves with a similar problem, in the settings in steam, dlc can be enabled or disabled if one wishes to play the base game first
I played XV2 from launch and bought the first 6 DLCs. I stopped playing after DLC 8 because I got sick of the updates breaking the mods on PC.
Zhat poor wallet. It was not ready
im not the only dude thats crushing on you surely, loving your stuff
still waiting on final fantasy, dreams are free lol
😂 that ending is accurate
For some reason you make me remember of Eclipse.
Nice video anyways, and yes I played this entire game without buying a single DLC.
Fitgirl repacks to the rescue with this one.
Glad you've enjoyed the xenoverse stuff well enough. I do wish they did more long reqching changes instead of these self contained sort of things. Wonderful job and comedy as always.
ITS BEEN EIGHT YEARS??
I've been trying to play this game after your videos, and wow I am so lost. I can't go past raditz cause it wants me to do an exam that's over 20 levels above me
I'm gonna say the cliché thing that has been said millions of times in this community:
*Modders do be carrying this game.* You try to rationalize with a fanboy, they instantly get passive-agressive because they can't accept that this game has been on a HUGE decline for years, quality wise.
I know this is not the main topic of the video but as a long time player who has 100% both XV1 and XV2 and have literally nothing else to do in the game other than destroying sweats in PvP, this game is DRY AS HELL. Because they don't like taking advantage of good ideas. Greed goes first for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 devs and publishers.
If you get on the shoes of someone who truly likes Dragon Ball, you would understand. That said, great video.
I was actually thinking the same thing about the story jumps while watching others. Hopefully the June Update changes that however.
I'm surprised she didn't mention that the main story even has cutscenes that were only added to advertise DLC.
DBX2 and its DLC frequently go on sale every year sometimes multiple times a year on XBOX and Playstation.
That's why you wait for discounts, as I got all of them 50% off.
If you're playing on steam or xbox you can uninstall specific dlc from the game until you're ready to play them, which is what I did recently when I got the deluxe edition but didn't want to play the dlc yet
I think DBXV2 is the only game that I have found where more than half of the roster is all DLC Characters
😂 Nice Video I especially liked the ending skit 😂
I started mid way,thx god all those previous dlc were on sale
I played this game three times already and the third time is on the pc, but been playing it more via the Steam Deck (love the steam deck, cloud saving goes BRRRRRRR) and been speedrunning the base content.
But yes I suggest start with the base content, play through the story (start from namek to get the flying license early), play the mentors to get free early skills, please play the Guru, frieza, vegeta and great saiyaman missions to unlock Distorted Eggs for post game content, and even some of the raid bosses can be played offline of how easy they are. (until you reach the Great Ape Bardock... that is where you need to play with real people).
Go for parallel quest in any order and do the raid bosses post game. Building your CAC requires a bit of knowledge, like QQ Bang, understanding the race and what is the "meta". Ive been playing offline and speedrunning the base content, even trying to get the TP medals before the new update. So good luck on the grind new players
After everything, you can buy the passes
The unstoppable force (waiting for a complete edition that contains everything) V The immovable object (continually adding more content)
sometime next month I think, there's doing to be an ultimate edition with all the dlc besides the upcoming, except tp medal purchases and music pack for like $65 total. which is like only $5 more than a new base game. I think Japan has it now.
Also consider how many 1 time events that you've missed. All with outfits you can't get elsewhere. Not to mention unlocking some characters like the festival characters, the supreme kai of time, and oh god, can we unlock demigra and the others once tp medals are gone, i didn't consider that.
i like the addon with (actual) ultra instinct goku just steam roll the game with him lol
A new edition will release soon with all the DLC for a total of 60$. OR the alternative, which I would suggest for everyone is to buy the game and all the DLC on key reselling websites. I managed to buy the game and all it's DLC for like 40$ just by looking for great sales and discounts on key reselling sites.
when it goes on sale you can get the game and all dlc for around $20-40 so do with that what you will.
Also, great video!
We still get DLC Discount on PS5 as well
*I’m so outdated last time I played was back in 2020. I wanted to come back to this game but idk anymore* 💀
I hear the new Ultimate Edition which will have all the DLC might only cost $60 so that ain't bad for any new players looking to have everything
This really highlights my """problem""" with the dlcs, i did have the same problem when i bought a bunch of them :/
I love the FGC so much, you just need to find the right people! Although, I completely understand why you wouldn't want to given your anecdotes
I'm happy i bought everything, just not all at once, and all on sale, including the dlc. Buying it all over time was the best for me.
Ahh, I haven't played this game since 2017... I've missed a lot.
Playing PQ's with friends and rando's are fun, ESPECIALLY if i could get mods to run online with buddies
3:15 I've been playing/uploading Xenoverse 2 since release even I dont interact with the community. Trust me, there are a lot of people that trash talk you if you use a move that they don't like. Even thought the game is +7 years old, im glad that its still receiving updates and the next update is coming up soon.
I remember hearing a UA-camr say that they might make a bundle for all dlc for only $60 when next gen update drops though idk if it’s true or not
The idea we live in a world where GTA 6 will come out before a Xenoverse 3 ANNOUNCEMENT is madness to me
You are also comparing a game that has no dlc being gta 5 to a game where over a third of its content being xenoverse 2 is now dlc. There will never be a third. Stop. For real.
@@rein3417 woah dude, it’s a meme. Eat a snickers
Theres an ultimate edition coming up with all dlc packed into one for 60$. If you want to buy this then just wait for the ultimate edition to come out and get that to save a lot of money
Sims 4 community: First time?
And then there's me, on a DBZ kick, buying the game and some of the DLCs upfront, spending hours making a character and doing the tutorials, only to learn I don't actually like how it plays but have played it too long to return it. =(
I really like Xenoverse 2, It is so much fun! I really like the selection of characters. I feel that it can be repetitive yet has lots to do
Damn ain't that the truth I'm glad I brought these as they came out but to know how much money I sunk into this game is crazy
This is why I don't have all the dkc myself, and probly never will
Okay, but buying this over time and playing tf outta it, worth it, every penny. Especially when the game was alive and my friends would catch fades every day and we’d run fades online. Then PQs? XV2 has earned the title of a hood classic
I bought the game and some of the dlcs while it was on sale since toriyama passing (RIP Akira Toriyama😢🕊️) and all their dlcs were like 5-10 bucks
Even as someone who literally preordered the game for base goku black I still feel like I’m being left in the dust with all the new stuff that is constantly coming to the game. 😂
Also the fact that FighterZ is still over $100 digitally is just absurd yes!! 🧐😤
As someone whos been around the game since before the firsr dlc Xenoverse and Xenoverse 2, this game has way too much dlc and im surprised we didnt get manga content and stuff
Deluxe Hidden!!
42% of that are packs that are also included in bundles. Another 10% is just music from the anime, and another 3% is just the story mode from Xenoverse 1. So fortunately it's nowhere near as bad as it looks.
Though I'm basing it on the US prices so the percentages might be different in your region.
I mean they plan on releasing bundle of the base game and all the currently released dlc to where it is just below $70 which is a steal.
a key thing is there’s only 15 paid dlc packs and most are bundled together. what steam does is list EVERYTHING including the individual packs
Yeah I regret not being able to keep up with all the DLC. Though now there is going to be a new upcoming Xenoverse 2 Ultimate Edition that will contain all the DLC released so far. For 60$. That sure beats paying over 400$.
Wrong on the dlc cost. “Best case scenario” no sales no tax all bundles and even with the music packs it currently comes to $161.90, but this is about to increase. That cost does not include the base game either. It’s certainly not over $400 for everything. And, who said they were doing that lmfao
@@rein3417 I was going with the info from the video itself. I stand corrected my bad. It is still cheaper though to go with the new Edition.
Great video
Thank you Kazi :D
Nice vid
had this exact problem myself
i should not be using reddit to see which dlcs have what
Are you in fact just now getting into the game? I agree with you though, best to just start with the base game.
I played the first Xenoverse, but didn't have internet in my house so all my characters were capped at lvl 80 and I couldn't update that to accomodate to 99. So basically I fell off a cliff. No matter what I was unable to finish the side missions because like Dragonball I literally was not strong enough
....the price.......my heart..HEART VI-
I’ve been playing since 2017. I hate this game. It’s my favorite game. I can’t leave, even if I wanted. Not that I want to. Great content, as always 👌👌
It's a bit addicting. I like to do a few parallel quest while listening to a podcast or something.
@@HiddenChannelpodcasts are shit. Enjoy listening to people talk about nothing? 💀
And THERES STILL GONNA BE MORE
WE GOT LIKE 4 MORE UPDATES THAT WE KNOW ABOUT-
Is that with the price of tp coins as well? I only bought stuff when it went on sale…. If you can wait.
Literally the GTA 5 of the DBZ games community
I'm going to round up here. Right now on Switch the base game is on sale from 20 to 10 bucks. But there's a bundle that includes 7 DLCs.
The bundle pack claims that buying everything separately would cost 60 bucks. The bundle cost 50. But there's a 40% off of that price. So 30 bucks.
But that bundle includes the discounted prices of the base game and some of the DLCs.
If I bought everything separately and no discounts, it would cost about 90 bucks. So, would you rather pay 30 bucks now or possibly 90 later. FOMO is hitting hard lol
I got the game on sale and I've been buying the dlc everytime they go on sale
the ultimate edition will be 60$ and it will include all the dlc once it comes out
tbf i always get it on sale. haven't yet for these but will in the summer sale. and ik that it'll be cheap including dlc. especially cuz special edition comes with a few packs. and then u just buy the rest of the packs. though it's still gonna cost a lot probably. kinda scummy but hey anime games for ya
Anyone watching and considering playing : DO NOT BUY NOW!! Wait for the next gen versions as it seems they’re holding off on releasing an Ultimate edition that holds all DLC up to the upcoming DLC. Anyone considering buying DLC, the best versions of abilities in the base game are locked behind some packs as well as “meta” moves that are most relevant/used in PvP
i...surely havnt spent THAT much on this game
Hidden any chance you will ever review the shows or movies? or are you gonna stick strictly to the games?
I quitted when I started to play and realized there was 0 support for offline players, basically go ahead end die 1 billion time to raditz 💀
I love this Dragon Ball Z game!
Where was this around the 13th of october 2022 at 5-6 pm? >:(
Happy 4/20/24
The Japanese Ultimate Edition has all of it coming for $64.00. But we are waiting to see if there will be an English Equivalent.
This must be a steam thing on consoles we have sets that bundle stuff together. It has like 3 or 4 dlcs in one and you buy them all run you about 75$ to 125$ cheaper when we have sales. They playing yall foreal on steam.
Have fun trying to get free levels, the guy that does it only levels you up one number at a time.
There needs to be an definitive edition!
I just bought X2 like a few months ago. I barely played it yet...
Yeah i didn't buy all the DLC packs at once too but i did buy them all through multiple sales and then i only actually started to play the game. lol However, i'm also in a unique position where i can "set" discounts for myself on Steam because i'm hoarding a ton of CS GO cases which went way up in price and which i can sell. I don't know if i ever would have bought them all otherwise, maybe i would have after playing the game for a while and simply wanting more content. But i feel like they are still expensive for what they offering, even at a discount.
Knowing what DLCs to get can save money if you're not interested in owning everything.
Also some DLC has it's own continuous story so there's an order to that. (The Fu stuff I'm pretty sure IS DLC, right).
I’ve bought 3 DLC beast, broly, and black. I have no idea what to do next
Just a quick correction. You don’t need to be on stream to take advantage of sales. All the dragon ball games go on sale pretty much every month on every platform. You can get base xenoverse 2 for like 5-10 bucks regularly on the psn. Same with fighters with the first season pass for about 15 Canadian. This also applies to xbox and switch, tho I see them on sale on PlayStation more.
don’t ever look for a relationship when playing a game ever. at all hahaha
you’re funny
