[@Gfromda23]

What’s unrealistic

[@luxo2309]

The reason I want local multiplayer is to play with friends and family when they come over. Sometimes buying two copies of a game and a second console is a tall ask just to play with a friend who's literally right next to you. Games like this should always have local multiplayer. There's also players who only buy games they can play with others. And for some not strictly online, but also locally. What if I wanted to play with my siblings? Or a son, cousin, girlfriend, wife, etc. Just for example. Even if I had the money, is buying the game twice and a whole second console just to play two players really all that necessary? Ignoring those complaining just for the sake of it, I like having friends over, and we play locally all the time. It's not really even a nostalgia trip thing, it's just convenient and makes sense. I got 2 controllers anyway. It'd suck to not have that option with this game that's also part of a series which was known for that. Plus it'd be the only DBZ fighting game without it. That's my argument for local multiplayer. Feel free to agree or disagree.

[@n8sg22]

No hate bro, but acting like local multiplayer isn’t as important as it is. It’s crazy to me. Local multiplayer is the best way to play with your friends. I know online is more popular now and convenient but playing side-by-side should be a dealbreaker for a lot of people.

I personally think they aren't gonna add movie characters or gt to the base roster which is fine. But I hope we have to work for the characters instead of it being like Xenoverse 2 where you simply buy the characters and get to play as them instantly. Like I want to PLAY to earn the character that's all I really want. Also I'm predicting dlc packs would be huge including several characters instead of 1-3. So for instance a Movie pack would include all the movie exclusive characters. That would give you so much more time to play the game for a purpose instead of instantly getting the characters and being able to use them. IM HYPED FOR THIS GAME

[@Gfromda23]

[@roseboone1890]

Oh no, it’s a lot of time and energy to put more characters in the game. It’s not like they haven’t had 15+ years, vastly superior technology and years of development time to get it right. 😢

[@DaxReviews]

I see what you are saying but it's not just a matter of time, it's time and money. Few development studios are in the position of say Rockstar where they know their game will make so much money they can take effectively take as much time as they want to make their game balloon to a scale never seen before. I'm sure this game will be profitable but by how much is the question which directly affects the budget of development. Tools are more advanced than ever yet the amount of work required to make a AAA game is greater than ever which goes back to cost. In my opinion having a roster of 250+ would be great but all things considered it would appear the starting roster of this game will be biggest ever even after those other titles added DLC.

[@n.henzler50]

No, local multiplayer is a big deal. First, to your point, this is a game all the older DB fans are going to want to play *with* their kids. Secondly, as an adult with a full time job, I want to be able to use the precious little time I have with my old friends to sit on the couch and play like in the old days. By the time I was in college and into my adult working life, games with split screen options were already being phased out in favor of online multiplayer. Even then, fighting games were rapidly becoming the last bastion of the couch gaming experience. Tenkaichi doesn't have that same arcade format as Mortal Kombat or Marvel VS. Capcom, but it still serves that same gaming role in my life, and a lack of local multiplayer will definitely dampen that experience for me.

While I understand that they cannot add every single character and that we may even have to purchase characters already found in Budokai and or Budokai Tenkaichi, I will not accept that there cannot be 'any' GT, Dragon Ball or movie characters and all of them will be added little by little through season passes and or dlc. I expect them to give us all major characters from all of Dragon Ball, be it Super, movies, GT, Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball and 'then' release minor characters, this isn't FighterZ 44 characters spread over years of dlc, this is a Budokai Tenkaichi style game, it's like Smash Ultimate's celebration but for Dragon Ball.

[@reggitopia]

You cooked with the local multiplayer take. It would definitely be great if it was in the game (honestly they’ll probably add it later on) but a dealbreaker?? Most of Tenkaichi’s content was always single player to begin with. Plus online is very much a thing. If this was any other dragon ball game people would not be this tight about local I promise.

[@FriezaDBZKing69]

So... These aren't bad takes. These are simply takes you don't agree with. Seems your response is more shortsighted than these takes. Considering the practices in modern gaming industries, most of these takes are spot on. Do I agree with them all? No. Are they bad takes? Not in the least bit.

[@EWOODJ]

1:13 Shouldn’t make assumptions about the lifestyles of the demographic. 2:37 Not really, each sequel have gameplay differences. I also prefer Dragon History. Longer=/= better. 4:20 I agree. Saiyans get boring. At least too many of the same two. One of which I can’t stand. *However,* if they play differently, they are separate characters and should be treated as such. Putting them together into a single slot won’t change that. The problem people have though, is exactly that. 8:04 Arale was the only character that wasn’t hindered from that due to her playstyle. It didn’t help the others at all. And no, a huge number of people complain about this. There was no benefit.

[@DaxReviews]

I'm more just pointing out based on demographics this seems to be an overblown complaint. Even the new additions to game modes were not a huge additions overall. Not sure how saiyans are boring when they are basically just humans with transformations. If a huge number of players don't like androids not be able to charge up then maybe they change it up, just never bothered me or my friends.

[@fares_gamer603]

dude why not have cross play man

[@AgusGA02]

I think the one with bad takes is yourself. No local multiplayer can be a dealbreaker for some, and DLC should not be defended.

[@DaxReviews]

That's valid, I just find it interesting no one seems to care about split screen until it's a game some people are playing due 90% nostalgia. In this situation if priced right I think the pros of DLC out weigh the cons. Also as mentioned in the video, we are no longer in the times of 3 games in 3 years and so DLC is a great way to keep content coming instead of going 5 years dry.

[@KikonSketches]

@@Gfromda23expecting anywhere near 200 is unrealistic. This is the first title in the modern series revival, which was built from scratch, and the first game with base roster starting at above 150 playable characters counting transformations. BT3 piggybacked off of BT2 assets, same as BT2 for BT1, BT2 & BT3 were released 1 year from each other because there wasn’t much development needed other than fine tuning, tweaking and a small amount of added content. BT3 was 1.5 GB in size, Sparking zero will most definitely be 10 times the size. Not to mention the game is clearly focusing on Z and Super content, with the trailers and V-scans all proving this with not a single glance at OG DB characters, GT characters or movie characters being mentioned or shown, GT being the most likely to be DLC. The games going to have a lot of content, so expecting 200 is pretty entitled when we don’t even know what modes there are, how many stages there are, the extent of stage destruction, how extensive story mode will be, etc. at the end of the day it’s a company not a charity case, DLC doesn’t make a game unfinished, it keeps the community engaged and excited and keeps the game alive for longer. Be happy we even got 164 as base :v

[@habderrahmane]

Dude you should be grateful that you are getting 164 characters day one even tho that has never been done(the closest was bt3 with 161 but it needed two whole games to reach that which is the same equivelant as DLCs every year that you have to pay full price for)
