Every once in a while I'll watch a random youtube video catching me up on some of the new SSJ God stuff, but haven't watched an episode in easily 15 years

Tournament of Power is pretty good.

Some of the Zamasu stuff was cool, I didn't like the Future Trunks stuff in Super too much.

I'm on the very beginning of the Namek/Freiza saga on the game. So far, very enjoyable game, although figuring out how to beat some of the early bosses was annoying. Raditz and Nappa beat my arse several times before I figured out how the combat completely worked.


buy the HP potion things.

How is this game so far? Last DBZ game I played was Xenoverse, which I did enjoy. Wasn't a great game or anything, but it was fun.

How does this compare as far as the fighting mechanics and everything are concerned?

I looked at this little map flow chart thing..

Where does the main quest end? It goes up until the Buu Saga?

I can’t remember. It’s been forever since I played. I feel like it did the Buu saga.

Z ended after Buu saga. Most Z games go up to the end of that arc.

Played Xenoverse a whole lot and enjoyed it. I’m contemplating purchasing.

I mean we all know this, what I'm asking is if THIS GAME stops before?

This flow chart thing I looked it didn't show it going up to the Buu Saga.

Edt: Sorry for the confusion, I meant Kakarot. My reply made it as if I was talking about Xenoverse.

Sorry I didn't mean to seem like I was replying to you about Xenoverse.

Was talking about specifically DBZ: Kakarot.

Sorry for the confusion.

Update: you can buy/sell at the capsule at Bulma’s cave, and being able to take items mid fight makes this game super easy

Still fun though. Just finished Freiza arc

Raditz has been kicking my arse. I accidentally used the health potion Bulma gave me in the first encounter, so now I don't have any. I can get him to about 90% down, but he gets one last blow on me every time and trips through an absurd amount of my health.

I'm still playing it, but I don't think Kakarot is objectively a good game. The open world is fun to fly around in for 10 minutes but there's nothing in it.

the side quests are almost all go here and kill x or collect x of y.

I'm not sure what the point of the leveling/party system is considering for about 90% of the game, you are locked into specific characters. There isn't a lot of character customization beyond making moves you already have stronger.

The way that you do so is pretty dumb as well. When flying through the map you collect different colored orbs which are used to purchase skill upgrades.

It's the best way to experience the DBZ story outside of the actual show though.
