I do think what HeroR points out is annoying but I think it's unfair to call that "Gohan's fanbase". I've only ever come across the "Gohan was a crybaby" sentiment a few times, and yes I think that is asinine. I doubt that mindset takes up more than a small fraction of the fanbase.

 

[Undead Fantasy]

Yeah, but a few seconds after the timestamp he starts talking about DBFZ and shows a lot of interesting footage, since the embargo ended right there lol.

That Piccolo combo was sick.

 

[Morlas]

at least slaythe will always have this

 

[N7.Angel]

If you release Kale, you release Kale instead of Broly. Broly may be the more popular character, but because there are precious few female fighters in this franchise, I'd bite the bullet and put Kale in over Broly.

No thanks.

 

[Icyflamez96]

The 3v3 stuff, assist stuff, and comments from the director (?) about balance kinda turns me off a bit from that game. I want to try the beta but I dont see myself rushing to buy it at this point.

 

[HeroR]

I've enjoyed him since his introduction as well.

I don't think it's really fair to generalize any particular fanbase for a character... in Gohan's case there's just so many facets to find interesting.

I said 'a lot', not all fans. And it appears to me that Goku specifically has a lot of fair-weather fans who only liked him in certain moments.

The term I should've used is 'fair-weather fans' or the fan who only like 'badass Gohan'.

Android 17 is now one of the strongest beings in the entire multiverse. That has to feel pretty good as a fan of the character. I think he'll be fine!

 

[Skeeter49]

17 will beat Jiren when Jiren starts talking about how he hates animals, and how he can't wait for U7's animals to be erased.

Someone photoshop Jiren's face onto this:

 

[The Silver]

Jiren is a poacher

 

[Undead Fantasy]

Black with Zamasu as a support character would be pretty cool actually.

I rather have Zamasu be a separate character.

 

[HardRojo]

Yep, he looks like a really cool character and versatile character. His slow moving fireball might help setting up some mixups.

I'm going to abuse the shit out of his arm grab.

But he's invincible

 

[LotusHD]

But he's invincible

Lol I've been wondering if they'll care or not. I mean, technically they should, but I dunno, it is just a fighting game after all.

Then again, that same logic of "caring" could apply to Beerus, and I wouldn't want that...

 

[caliph95]

17 is a powerful Android with infinite stamina sure

It's a fighting game who cares

The director.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Then again I guess it could just be pre-invincibility Zamasu

 

[caliph95]

The director.

Not that much

 

[Skeeter49]

I mean does it matter if he's invincible? Your canon isn't as important as the game.

 

[caliph95]

He can still be beaten regardless he just won't just pretend he got knocked out

 

[The Silver]

really don't care for Zamasu to get his own slot, his main gimmick can hardly be used in a fighting game and all he has after that is that little ki blade which pales compared to Black's. Black w/ Zamasu and Merged Zamasu are fine for me.

 

[HardRojo]

I'm going to abuse the shit out of his arm grab.

It'd be cool if the English dub went with "Get over here!" to mimic Scorpion.

 

[LotusHD]

I mean does it matter if he's invincible? Your canon isn't as important as the game.

It doesn't, it's just that that is his main gimmick which would (Or at least should) matter very little in a fighting game, since Black is a better version of him in every way moveset-wise, while M. Zamasu exists if people are super insistent on not having another character that looks like Goku, while also being the final villain/having an impressive moveset.

 

[Magypsy]

The director.

naw they just want cool characters

 

[HardRojo]

If Zamasu somehow makes it in as his own character, I'm sure they would find a way to use his invincibility as a mechanic, 16 has got a self-destruct super after all, so maybe Zamasu could have a limited use healing super that acts covers that trait (he yells "I am immortal!"), but gets knocked out just like the rest of the roster.

 

[Icyflamez96]

Does Dragon Ball FighterZ take a character’s power level into account? For example, could Yamcha actually beat Goku in this game?



We’re trying to balance that out with the 3v3 aspect. There may be characters that are better at assisting or supporting than fighting. It could destroy the image of Dragon Ball if, for example, a weak character could destroy Goku. Thanks to the 3v3 feature we can balance that out with the Dragon Ball universe

[Moaradin]

If Beerus doesn't have a Slayer lose animation, I'll riot.

 

[Daingurse]

FFTY

That's pretty much all we got from Jiren so far lol. Can't wait for him cut lose. Hit is probably done for because he actually made Jiren show an emotion, slight irritation!

And yet Krillin can beat characters far stronger than him.

 

[Magypsy]

And yet Krillin can beat characters far stronger than him.

Exactly. The game would be terribly unbalanced if they'd adhere to power levels.

Like in any fighting game a trash character can beat a top tier character if the skills of the players allow for that.

That comment definitely makes me wary of balance aspects.

Trash characters in fighting games are usually trash because the balancing unintentionally made them trash (barring joke characters, of course). Not because the character was weaker in the lore or whatever. Balancing a game is very hard, very careful work.

Hopefully he has something more than that, but I could see him just being really really strong or w/e. Hit was pretty awesome with the timeskip. Jiren just being real strong would be real disappointing.

 

[NEO0MJ]

Yeah. Just pull a Slayer/Rachel and have it seem like Beerus or Zamasu got bored of the fight and decided to just sit it out.

His eyes can come out of their sockets and chase down opponents.

They should also shoot lasers so he could then be considered part gundam.

That sounds much better and funnier actually lol, forgot about Slayer.

You can play as Femto in the Berserk Musou game...

Steel skin!

Is that better than IRON BODY

Plus King picollo had that I think

 

[Sub_Level]

Steel skin!

Its almost like jiren is a sort of man of steel or something.

 

[Sephzilla]

Goku Black w/ Zamasu as an assist character would be a pretty neat thing. And then just have Merged Zamasu as the final boss

 

[NoctisVsStar]

And yet Krillin can beat characters far stronger than him.

That comment was more in line with characters such as Videl, Satan, Chi-Chi, Bulma on a mech and such. For instance In order for Videl to work she would need a saiyaman Gohan to be intergrated into her moveset otherwise she would be zoned out. That was my take on it, they are trying to be a faithful as possible as they can to the source material.

18 doesn't need 17 in her moveset granted it seems they took history of trunks special as inspiration.

 

[Rutger]

Goku Black w/ Zamasu as an assist character would be a pretty neat thing. And then just have Merged Zamasu as the final boss

Whatever the final boss is, it's a very safe bet that it will be a playable character.
Unless the story mode is completely cinematic like Guilty Gear's.

Gohan is a very overrated character with the most annoying fanbase next to Vegeta.

[MKIL65]

I totally agre-

With the most annoying fanbase next to Vegeta.

Now you've gone too far...

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Gohan is a very overrated character with the most annoying fanbase next to Vegeta. They're like the middle age people who keep trying to received their 'glory days'. In the case of Gohan, it's the Cell Games and Ultimate Gohan, and mourning how he never became the main character to replaced Goku because Toriyama changed his mind.

I would argue the only time Gohan shined was during the Cell Saga, cause his ultimate form was short lived ¯\_(&#12484_/¯

The vegeta fanbase is ok.

 

[Sephzilla]

the most annoying fanbase next to Trunks.

FTFY

The shitposting is just as annoying, if not worse.
