Hi, guys. So, today I decided to buy the new dbz game, dbz battle of z. You can read the 2 last paragraphs only if you already know the game or if you don't like long texts.
Now, what really dissapointed me is the options. You CANNOT play against the CPU in the battle mode, only in the story mode. There is NO local multiplayer at all. It's a fighting game, for god's sake. It's always fun to gather you friends to play fighting games and beat the crap out of them.
So, you wanted to play against the CPU with the team you made? Sorry, bro, you can only play online. Oh, you wanted to play with your friends? Well, tell them to buy the game? Oh, it's a different console, huh? Too bad.
Oh, your interent connection fell? Well, only story mode for you.
What the hell are they thinking? "Oh, screw what the fans want, let's make a crappy game and focus on the online so that people will have to buy more to play together". This is really stupid. The fans are going to be really dissapointed(again) and many will give up on buying the game, because it's NOT cheap. I've seen people chosing not to buy a game because they wanted to play with a friend. That's even worse when it's a f*cking fighting game, damn it, people has been playing fighting games together since arcade.
That's going to back fire at them, and they'll end up losing a lot of money after the first week, because many will give up on buying a crappy game that you can barely play with your friends.
I was expecting this game to be the most awesome dbz game ever, or at least to get close to tenkaichi 3 in awesomeness. When the trailer was released, it reminded be of dbz legends, an old and very fun ps1 game.
Then, before buying it, I decided to read some reviews, and a lot of people were dissapointed with it. I thought that: "oh, the game is probably ok and people disliked it because it was supposed to be awesome". It even got 58 points only out of 100 on the reviews.
However, it was not an ok game. I decided to play it myself, for being a great dbz fan. I was more than dissapointed. The combos, as well as the reaction of the chars when fighting, were very poor. You can just keep pressing a button, then hold another to make a chain combo. The ki blasts/powers/skills or whatever you call it, are also really bad. We get like, a kamehameha for exemple, that's barely a kamehameha at all(compared to the previous games), 2 "special" moves, and the "ultimate" that you can use when you fill the energy bar until half of it is full.
And no in-game transformations either.
