OG DB content confirmed?!
At long last....
It's probably just a fake out unfortunately.
As much as I want them to introduce OG DB XV content, it would be a bit difficult to pull off without it being extremely weird.
Gokus power level didn't even scrape triple digits until near the end of the series. Nor could he fire ki blasts like crazy.

Unless they're gonna introduce your CAC as a fucking retard that can't even fly or control ki it wouldn't work to have him in the OG DB, because he'd just stomp on everyone.
I mean King Piccolo was this world ending threat in the context of DB, but the cannon fodder Frieza soldiers on Namek would unironically stomp him even at his peak.
It's just an unfortunate consequence of how DB as a whole was written.
 
It looks like we finally have outfits separate from stats if that 'Wardrobe (Cosmetics)' implies anything.
LBA dropped a video, tearing apart Mark's Dragon Ball Super Rewrite where he had Zamasu take over Future Gohan's body instead of Goku.

Wait, so Mark's rewrite has Zamasu be pissed that some random kid, who has nothing to do with the sin of time travel or defying Gods, was really strong and beat up a mortal-made abomination and that's what spurs him on to erase mortals? Or is that just the vid memeing?

We already that with QQ bangs. Sure you had to use clothes to make them, but still. This is a better system in general though. I'll never understand why they tried tying stats to outfit. It's like the nips are forever struggling with the concept of "fashion over function". Most players will always prefer looking cool over squeezing another 2.37% damage from dressing like a faggot. Especially in games that already have character stats you level.
The fighting styles is one of the best things they could have done, but I really don't like how the Whis example just has the staff pop in & out of existence. Even just a little effect around it to make it look likes it being summoned magically would be nice. Better still if for something like a Trunks moveset you had to have the sword equipped as an item/accessory to use it.

QQ Bangs were gay, lame and RNG raped.

At the very least, if you already have an equipped weapon accessory, the sword/staff should be replaced with it. I want Trunks' moveset with Janemba's sword, or Whis' with the power pole, I don't care if it looks janky.

I do wonder how they'll deal with fighting styles that incorporate different body parts (Tails/Stretchy Arms). Will they just restrict them outright, or make a small variation like they did for Namekian and Majin special moves back in 2?
 
Dead game Dragon Ball Gekishin Squadra was doing so terribly under Toshi "Passionate Destroyer of Projects" (much like what I heard about Dokkan and Legends) that for it's first anniversary they removed him from his role as producer (?), completely gutted what was essentially his child right in front of him and told him to cover the gutting live.
1788555363429.png Look at this man, this is the fact of a man who had his passion project murdered in front of him. His voice was cracking and he looked on the verge of crying the entire stream. Damn, even I feel bad.
Gekishin fans are largely upset by this turn of events due to it not even being the same game anymore, meanwhile other Dragon Ball mobile game fans are essentially going "first time?" and laughing at Toshi considering everything he touches nearly dies. Now they're turning it into Bandai's other mobile game "One Piece Bounty Rush" with DB characters lol.
Supposedly one of the main reasons for the overhaul was because apparently the game was "too complex with too much strategic depth" for the main audience of Dragon Ball (room temperature IQ Mexicans), which is hilarious given that the game is incredibly easy by MOBA standards (if incredibly unbalanced). But this is DB we're talking about, we've all seen the main audience of DB games and they're barely sapient.

Completely unsurprising, they refused to fix issues the game had for the entirety of the game's life cycle, doubled down on broken characters being broken, gave almost zero incentive for new players (or returning) to jump back in, it was a buggy vibe coded mess, and quite literally everything they could have done to make the game worse they did as soon as possible. Why this guy is still allowed to direct anything is beyond me but hey, maybe they can make a half decent game this time around.

New trailer showing off the races

Things notable to me:

Beerus Planet
More interior arenas, the one shown here having a Red Ribbon logo in the back. Red Pants Army theory getting strong.
We have thin majins
We have fat namekians
There's a small head shot of a Frieza race at the end that kind of looks like a bulkier physique
Namekians gets Piccolo's unleashed form (and I assume the orange form too)
The Demon chick has that transformation form heroes where she grows horns.
There's at least one person who's happy that Dr Gero is in the roster.
Trailer ends with what seems to be a shot of a cutscene recreation of Goku meeting Bulma in Dragon Ball

I really hope we get an actual clear look at how customization works.

Alex YiiK is in!
 
You will be raped by RNG and you will like it.
I don't even mind RNG grinding. I have tons of drops that are 1% chance.
I'm just worried about gatcha shit when it comes to abilities.

"Oh boy, I can't wait to unlock the Kamehameha for my character"
SORRY YOU ROLLED GALICK GUN, TRY AGAIN
"Okay, let me retry."
SORRY YOU ROLLED DODON RAY, TRY AGAIN
 
The Funimation English VA for Master Roshi died today. RIP

Work hard, study well, and eat and sleep plenty! That is the Turtle Hermit way! We must master the art of peace in addition to the art of war! The Turtle Hermit School will be with you... always!"
Rip, voiced a true teacher no matter what.
not a gatcha system for skills because of so that will kill the game
Hell the gacha system for cosmetics was a heavy factor in what killed Squadra. I don't think a skill gacha system would kill XV3 but it would definitely be a noticeable impact to the player count in the long term. It could also be a part of a specific gamemode like Ultra Time Patrol Battle from the last DLC but even more "roguelike." Doubt it, probably just rerolling the chance of getting a skill knowing Bandai "antagonize our fans at all costs" Namco.

Totally Not Mark released this.

The animation itself is pretty good, but I still say it is a waste of resources, effort, and time that could have been better spent at anything else. People easily could rewatch the Battle of Gods movie if they wanna see the animation being done well.

And even though the title is about the fan animation, the animation itself lasted for around 3-4 minutes. The rest of the video is Mark rambling about how great the animation he is putting out is, why the 5th episode made him feel like his dog got brutally bludgeoned to death, and why we need the remake so bad.
 
Somebody get the tampons! Geekdom's pussy is bleeding again!

This post started from him whining about how people don't appreciate his leaks but appreciate the leaks of others.

Then somebody stupidly said he leaked Super Saiyan 4 in Daima, and he dropped this.

And this lead to him going completely apeshit outta nowhere, talking about how mean stuff about him gets more retweets and blah blah blah....

And him wishing something is done with people making jokes about his weird behaviour.

Whatever happened to becoming a better person through finding God? Clearly, he didn't help with his hoe behaviour.
