I F*CKING HATE DRAGON-BALL XENOVERSE
No like seriously, f*ck this game - I need to vent a little right now, because this game has already caused me to crush one of my controllers in my hands and I dont need to crush my second controller.
First of all, lets address the GOD AWFUL stamina/ki system. So the game has a separate bar for stamina and ki - okay so far so good. Ki is used obviously for ki blasts and ki based energy attacks. Stamina is used for just about everything else. Again, so far so good - pretty standard stuff for a fighting game. BUT THE WORST DESIGN CHOICE IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOUR STAMINA RUNS OUT! If your stamina runs out GG, your f*cked, throw the match now, because if your stamina runs out you cant do anything at all. You cant fly, you cant efficiently block, you cant even use attacks properly. And to top it off if you get hit while your stamina is out YOU GET F*CKING THROWN AROUND THE ENTIRE MOTHER F*CKING MAP ALL GOD DAMN DAY!!! Did ANYBODY test the combat system???!!!
But thats just the icing on the cake, because this game has THE MOST BROKEN LOOT SYSTEM I'VE EVER SEEN. Destiny has a better loot system than this f*cking game.
So in the Parallel Quests (the game's generic quest missions) there are a multitude of items, equipment, and even new attacks that you can obtain in all 55 PQ's as loot. HOWEVER THIS GAME USES A F*CKING RANDOM NUMBER GENERATOR FOR IT'S LOOT SYSTEM, AND LET ME TELL YOU THE ODDS OF OBTAINING THE ITEM YOU WANT IS SLIM TO F*CKING NONE!
You can be grinding a SINGLE PQ mission for HOURS UPON HOURS without obtaining what you're after - BUT TO MAKE THIS F*CKING SHIT EVEN WORSE, SOME OF THESE MISSIONS ARE THE HARDEST GOD FORSAKEN MISSIONS YOU'VE EVER HAD THE MISFORTUNE OF BEING SUBJECTED TOO.
I'm playing a mission right now where all I want is a single attack that has a small percentage of a chance from dropping in this mission. Let me lay out EXACTLY what needs to happen in order to have the PERCENTAGE of a chance to get the attack: First, you need to defeat SIX enemies who SPAM THE LIVING SHIT out of HARD TO DODGE attacks. BUT AS IF THAT WASNT BAD ENOUGH, you need to clear through these six enemies WITHOUT AN ALLIES HEALTH DROPPING BELOW 50%!!! WTF???!!! You cannot heal this ally, you cannot protect him, and nearly all six enemies go only after this ally and nearly all their biggest attacks can get his health below 50% in one hit. ARE YOU F*CKING KIDDING ME????!!!!! BUT THEN AFTER ALL THAT, THERE IS A PERCENTAGE OF A CHANCE THAT A SEVENTH ENEMY WILL SHOW UP, AND ONLY IF THIS ENEMY SHOWS UP AND ONLY IF YOU DEFEAT HIM WILL THERE BE A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF A CHANCE OF GETTING THE ATTACK I WANT!!! If the item doesnt drop, GOOD F*CKING LUCK MATE!
I am so sick of this bullshit. The game itself isn't that bad, but these mechanics are so HORRIBLY, CANCEROUS that I seriously dont know how this game was even released to the public. Let alone the fact that this shit wasnt patched.
If Xenoverse 2 is ANYTHING like these mechanics, which it most likely will since the game has only been in development for a year, then I will be saying F*CK THAT SHIT.
