[@ignisGladius]

- Needs more powerful transformative sounds. - More importantly, the hair of super Saiyan blue needs to "wave" when powering up; all hairs should. The clothes having dynamic movement would also be cool, but perhaps the technological constraints limit such implementation. - If you could make the aura more epic and dynamic, which they already are, would heavily impact the enjoyment of the gameplay, as it is the most dopamine producing moment of the dynamic. Also, the Voices need to change and be better. The "whoa" of Goku has evidently aged.

They either used the original voice lines , or the VA's did a SUPERB job of recreating them exactly how they used to sound. When Goku takes a blow, same sound. Vegeta doing Galick Gun, same exact vocal delivery. That's not a complaint, I'm impressed with how nostalgic it already feels just watching the gameplay.

Please make the impact of beams like they were in tenkaichi! Thats literally my only complaint. It looks a bit cheap in this game. In Tenkaichi the whole screen would shake and light up. Also the sound back then made it feel so impactful.

[@z3roninja565]

They need to find a balance of both, been playing a lot of Bt3 as a throwback in anticipation for this game but honestly the screen shake with white screen isnt the best, feels like you can't even see the result of the attack because as soon as it hits the ground you're blind and then the attack is over.
