  • Following the next-gen update and new Bardock expansion, I felt it was time to return to one of the most authentic Dragon Ball games made. For its lack of depth, Kakarot made up for it in presentation and fan service. Can lightning strike twice three years later? I dig in and find out.

    First of all, Dragon Ball and Z had incredible animation for it’s time. DB is an 80s anime. One Piece didn’t come until MUCH later, and it still didn’t have that great of animation. Bleach has the best animation out of the “big three” Shonen anime from the 2000’s. I don’t wanna be that guy but you’re way off the mark in terms of animation so we gotta put some repec on the name and the artists.. DBZ had episodes being churned out every week consistently for years, in the 80s, classic hand-drawn cell animation, it’s among the best for it’s time and still holds up today.

      Season 1 of DBZ came out in 89 and ended in 90. so while DB was an 80's anime almost all of DBZ was a 90's anime. I still agree that it was great for the time since one piece aired in 99 and bleach in 2006. but don't mistake DB "Z" for being a decade older than it is. but even then I'd say neon genesis evangelion was better in most cases than a lot of DB or DBZ. i love dbz bro but man it is flawed beyond anything.

      When DBZ was good (storyboard/character designs/animation), it was really good - I still love it. But won't lie that there were some reaaally derpy frames occasionally (Cell saga?)

    I feel like you need to go back and watch dbz again. The Saiyan saga may have looked meh but afterwards the animation was amazing. I have no idea where you got the idea that “you have to use your imagination for a lot of the fights.” That is just false. Especially in the buu saga with yuya takahashi’s animation. Chef’s kiss. Much better than even dbs broly imo

    • @Shallot..
      @Shallot.. 2 місяці тому

      In my opinion, I think it’s worth it if you’re a huge dragon ball fan, or just want to get into the anime. I definitely think the combat is solid, cutscenes are top tier (that aren’t the text boxed ones), and the side quests are a bit interesting if you have prior knowledge on dragon ball. The base game does get rid of some key points, but adds some as well. Like In the video, you can explore around multiple places in the game, even going off world like the Kai’s planet or namek. You can do baseball if you’re bored, or make a car if you want (they got the driving episode as a main mission.). But, I will say depending on your budget. I might buy one of the upgraded versions that include the DLCs. I forgot what they’re called, but the highest edition for it is like $40 more expensive, but comes with both season passes. Which are 6 dlc’s in total which will give you about an extra 12 hours of play time for story alone. It just depends if you wanna buy it. Since if you wanna experience dragon ball, explore the world, and play as goku and co. I’d buy it. If you want to experience the dragon ball world as your own character buy xv2. I will say though, the base game only covers up to RoF. But has a decent spin on it, and the base game is only $20. But you might wanna buy a couple of the dlc’s if you want cool moves and all that aren’t in the base game. Or more stories, like Universe 6 vs 7 tournamnet, black saga, a bit of ToP, a bit of broly, and some super hero stuff.

    For me, Budokai 3/Infinite World and Dragon Ball FighterZ are the best DBZ games of them all, but purely from a gameplay standpoint. I enjoy the Tenkaichi/Raging Blast style, but the faster paced and actual feel of a DB fight is best captured in a 1V1 fighter IMO.
    That being said, Kakarot delivers on the story perspective… except with Return of Frieza and Battle Of The Gods. They dropped the ball with those DLC’s. However Trunks and Bardock make up for it in a BIG way. It’s clearly a love letter to fans, and it basically feels like a 3D Legacy Of Goku. As a fan, I can’t help but be grateful.

      This game made me break my pc….. punched a hole in my monitor, picked up my pc and threw it at my wall, then stomped on it repeatedly, the I broke the table that my monitor sat on. A table made of wood ( good quality, not that cheap plywood shit) so … don’t know how I managed that. Then I also broke an arm off my gaming chair.
      I’m glad you enjoyed it though.
      The only good take away I have from this game is that while playing it and dying repeatedly, I probably came as close as I ever will in real life at going super saiyan.
      The cons for me. Broken pc, broken table, broken chair, a lot of holes in walls.
      Pretty comedic looking back at it though, after I went on my rampage I just said fuck it slept the rest of the day. Didn’t even bother picking up all the broken shit after my carnage that night.

    Overall, I was very pleased with how kakarot turned out. I was somewhat skeptical but also cautiously excited before it released because when you think DragonBall you typically don't think openzone (nice Matty 😆) it has plenty of fighting games but few rpgs and a few of those are infamous (looking at you sagas) my only real experience with "open world" dbz was on buu's fury and legacy2 (I mercifully missed out on the first) and I guess budokai3 and infinite world? It's been ages, so feel free to correct me, but I swear those games had a pseudo open world. So they aren't that common when compared to the full on fighting games.

    I hope that the next DBZ game is a totally original story. Like an else world movie. Xenoverse was cool but you were still playing the main story with a twist, like you said. I just want them to go the Arkham Route. Brand new story, some of the same characters that we love, and new villains and allies.

      I don't get why people keep asking Bandai to deviate from canon for the games... it's literally been proven every time that when they do that the games turn out trash or at the very least a meh game. What we all really want is to experience a DB game as close to the actual story as possible where in cutscenes from the anime you actually play through them, that's the dream.

    Regarding the combat gameplay, it's an action RPG, so a combo-system like in a HacknSlash or a fighting game really wouldn't make sense, that's not what you expect when you buy a game labeled as action rpg, and a whole lot of people really hate frenetic combos, which is why warriors games fe are not really that popular, so I think CC2 made the right decision.

    Kakarot was the first game I got for the Xbox Series X. I played it to the end and the dlcs. The world feels so hollow, I hate it. There is little late game content. Only those unvoiced quests(I don't consider grunts voicing) and combat challenges.

  • @TheViper4Life

    Yeah I was pleasantly surprised with this game. I'm a bit picky with DBZ games. I LOVE Tenkaichi (BT3 is my all time favorite fighting game), but wasn't the biggest fan of Budokai (though I played the Budokai HD Collection early last year and enjoyed it well enough, just not on the level of BT3). I enjoy Xenoverse, but I'm not really into the more eSports friendly FighterZ. So this going the RPG route could have gone both ways and I thought they did a great job...not perfect, but it worked. But I played and finished it long before the DLC came out...by the time it did I hadn't touched the game in so long that I just decided not to get the Season Pass. But I was also expecting them to move on to Kakarot 2, but instead they seem to be going the Xenoverse 2 route of just feeding it DLC rather than giving us the sequel we want.

    Dragon Ball Z launched on North American TV in 1996, quickly growing a dedicated fan base. However, its run of new episodes ended in 2003 -- before any of the Big Three hit screens. The first Big Three anime to launch in North America was One Piece in 2004, with Naruto following in 2005 and Bleach in 2006.Apr

    One Piece launched in 1997 and Naruto in 1999, but Bleach didn't start until 2001. However, there was often a delay between a series' launch and its arrival in the American version of Shonen Jump. In North America, One Piece launched in 2002, Naruto began in 2003 and Bleach in 2007, meaning all of those titles were in the public consciousness at the same time.Dragon Ball, however, debuted and grew popular much earlier. The original manga launched in Japan in 1984 and finished in 1995, years before the other titles came along.

The only real fight I had was with Raditz, until I gained a level and bought a lot of healing items. It's odd how he was stronger than the entirety of the Frieza saga/Namek section.

    I enjoyed the Budokai, Tenkaichi series as well as Burst Limit. I didn't play Raging Blast or the Xenoverse games as I feared it would end up being like Budokai and Tenkaichi, where you had to spin the sticks and that caused them to drift after a while, especially playing against friends. FighterZ restored my interest and I watched bits and pieces of Kakarot and I gotta say that I'm very interested in this game. Will definitely have to pick this up.
