Dragon Ball: Xenoverse |OT| Yes, They're Still Making These

They can take hits for days
They don't even talk, just grunt. In the heat of battle I can't even hear the grunts, so I wouldn't say its crucial in the least.
Voice does not change when you transform.

Yeah, I was hoping since you could pick a voice they would have your character speak, but they are silent.

I glanced through the full skill list (available in-game) and it looks like Majins are exclusively able to learn a decent amount of iconic Majin Buu attacks. There are, of course, race-restricted skills for the other races as well, e.g. Saiyans and the Super Saiyan skill.
Equipment is in a similar state, with a decent amount of exclusives per race, with Earthlings and Saiyans at the forefront.
Didn't someone make this exact same post earlier?
Anyways, the voices will actually shout their attacks, DBZ-style. Kamehameha, Special Beam Cannon, Galick Gun, etc. It also affects their grunts. However, other than that, they are silent protagonists.

This game needs to be DBZ's Street Fighter. They can make other DBZ fighting games but Xenoverse needs to last for generations. I hope it gets so popular they go deep into more DB Online stuff and start tapping Akira Toriyama for character designs.
I don't know if I should respec my Majin character. I'm pretty balanced in stats at level 19. I feel like I should specialize in something, which I would prefer to be melee supers but you get punished so bad for using them and none so far do as much damage as ki attacks.
Camera went so jank on me during that mission
Oh ok. That's fine then.
Is that the one where
you're Ginyu? Camera was all types of fucked up in there, and killing 20 guys was overkill IMO.

And one mooore thing!
Can you give a Saiyan human clothes and vice versa or are all costumes race dependent?

A lot of equipment is race-neutral. Seems particularly true for generic outfits like "Saiyan Armor" or "training gi." Aside from this, there are a fair amount of Earthling or Saiyan exclusives, and less Namekian, Frieza's race, or Majin exclusives.
Every piece of equipment is easily marked so you can see what it does, who can wear it... although there's no way (I know of) to preview the item before you buy it.
So, basically, a majority of equipment is all-access with others exclusive to a specific race (or, in some cases, gender).

Cool, thanks everyone! Think I'm able to get on with making a character now.

What are you going with? I was thinking Saiyan, but I really want to make a cute Buu girl.

WAIT!
Clothing can be recoloured immediately after you start, so don't worry about it too much. AFAIK, all clothing can be recoloured at whim while in the hub.
Don't make the mistake I did and obsess over it.
Not all clothing only certain sets.

Well, originally I wanted a Majin female because they're cute as a button. But theeen, I saw that costume DLC of an old-time favorite of mine, Lunch/Launch, is coming (and I have the season pass).
So I want to make one of each, but think I'm going to start out with the basis for Lunch. She'll have blue hair when normal, but yellow when Super Saiyan (just like her personality twist when she sneezes) if all goes well that would be badass.
I just hope the costume fits Saiyans too or I'm in shit street.
Awesome. I needed to know this as well, thanks.

I kind of want to jump right in as a Namekian, but the urge to go Super Saiyan is too strong, even if it's later on.

I think collecting the seven dragonballs allows you to edit characters' appearances.
Also note that completing the story unlocks the other character slots. (They might start at level 1 though, not sure.)
Yep that's the one!!! Camera went to hell in there. Hopefully they can improve their Camera code for indoor scenes in Xeno 2
[edit] To be specific, we are discussing trying to remain locked on to enemies while flying around in an enclosed area (explaining to others they might not have any idea what we are talking bout)

Like seriously, I've been chain kamehameha'd like 6x. It's like the AI has infinite ki.

sometimes it does, oddly enough they have hidden stats depending on the situation.
Well looks like the gamersgate website scammed me out of the preorder.
Oh boy, now I have to wait who knows how long before they even reply, just so I can get a refund. And I miss out on DLC that will never come out.
Thanks gamersgate.
yeah; sort of relies on knowledge of how the character looked in the show (with the outfits in question on)

Yeah...I wish there was an outfit and accessories preview...maybe it can be patched in later, no idea
Would like to have seen a short preview video for the skills before you purchased/equipped them

Also, thanks for the posts on the origins of the "Majin" race. It makes more sense in the literal context of Demon Man but I think trying to piece together why the Majin race is called Majin will make as much sense as the name "Frieza Race".
man i regret not picking them dot eyes for my female majin. if i get the 7 dragonballs can i change that?

My ki blast ultimate damage is ridiculous right now, I am level 44 and I take half an HP bar of a level 70 enemy with Final Flash
Sooooo gooood
Mind sharing how you allocated your attributes. As I said earlier I'm thinking about starting over with a more ki centric character instead of a balanced one(Female Saiyan).
