I hope you enjoyed the video! If you did, think about sticking around to become a CHOOM! - เกม
I’m so glad you started playing this game, even though the player count is really low now, this game still holds a special place in my heart
I am too! I seriously feel blessed being able to jump in and find such a solid community :)
@@WHIKKEDD Welcome to the Time Patrol. Have fun and don't worry about Zarbon he's house broken 😂
Surprising, but really cool to see someone getting into Xenoverse 2 just recently. Don't wait 8 years to play sparking zero lmao
oh def not lol that shits getting preordered asap
@@WHIKKEDDhave u pre ordered it yet
not yet but payday is Monday 🤩
Most people don't see how close Xenoverse and Tenkaichi are to each other. Besides the obvious things like "no beam struggles" it's just a slightly different camera angle.
I'm here for this 👏
honestly i wish i could say i could tell the ins and out but this game really makes me feel like im playing BT3 and I love it
I’m not trying to be disrespectful but I really don’t see the similarity at all. There’s a few, like them both being 3D arena fighters. Even the camera angle isn’t the same like you said though. BT3 is pretty much always over the shoulder while XV2 is a lot more free form.
I’m not trying to trash on Xenoverse 2 when I say this, I really enjoy the game and recently have even had an obsession with it, but the BT3 complexity and skill ceiling is so much higher than XV2. The combo strings in BT3 are multitudes more times complicated, the vanish system is much more skill based, instead of being able to vanish whenever you have stamina like in XV2 - in BT3 you only have specific tight windows to vanish and only at certain times in a combo. This makes it harder to evade supers and ultimates. At the same time this forces you to be more picky when you’re on the offensive in BT3 because your opponent can’t just run out of stamina, they can only mess up the timing of the vanish, which means you need to time your supers and ultimates very specifically. Additionally BT3 unlike Xenoverse has so many more defensive abilities other than just guard and vanish. Here are a few to name: Emergency blaster waves, Z-counters, sonic sways, counter stances, offensive vanishes, directional blocking, the advanced movement mechanics can even be used defensively if you have enough experience with the game.
The best way to illustrate the difference is by just opening up the combo list in XV2 vs BT3. There is so much more I could say but I won’t because this comment would get stupidly long.
XV2 is a fun beat em’ up arena fighter that is simple and a good time. BT3 is a competitive arena fighter with complex mechanics that is a good time. Saying they’re similar is like saying that Super Smash Bros and Mortal Combat are similar because they are 2D fighters.
Once again no hate to XV2 I genuinely enjoy it, I have been doing another run through of it the last 4 days or so myself lol, and they’re both GOOD games but very different.
@@conlanvanhook2452 Definitely. Combos were more fleshed out in BT but Tenkaichi is definitely the foundation of Xenoverse. What was clean over the shoulder for combat focus; Xenoverse took it a different route in hopes exploring would be a more major part. Sometimes we get those camera angles still with certain combo strings and in those moments I feel like Tenkaichi shines through.
In some cases though Xenoverse ruined what was a good thing. Like the whole "dodge and weave" mechanic as long as you pressed said button at the right time was much better than spamming guard for the "perfect block". Clashing will always be missed
Also Xenoverse would definitely be more competitive if connections were better and the modders weren't pvping
@@conlanvanhook2452 wow you really are passionate about it and i fkn love it. like I said i’m not a huge fighting game guy and can’t really tell the exact difference between the two other than my genuine enjoyment for them. when I said it makes me feel like i’m playing BT3, i meant more on an enjoyment and nostalgic level than actually gameplay. you never sounded disrespectful btw, love the comment and ur explanation of everything :)
It's a lot like tenkaichi tag team for psp
Xenoverse 2 definitely has a special place in my heart. Although I'm a bit embarrassed to admit it now that I'm a complete DB nerd, this game introduced me to Dragon Ball. It was the first piece of Dragon Ball media I've ever indulged in, and I became a huge fan ever since. Love this game to death man
do NOT be embarrassed at all! if anything that just shows how amazing this game is, and hey BT3 introduced me to the series and i love it death! this game is genuinely fantastic
I played this since the end of 2020 when i saw it being sold on the eShop. Now its on my top 10 list of games i play the most on and it got me into watching DBZ (filler episodes included) and the more recent Dragon Ball Super movies
oh man that rocks! the fact that it got you involved with the overall franchise is fantastic and i’m glad it did!!
Db has the best filler in the entire anime. There’s nothing better than goku and picollo going to get their driving license 😂😂
Don't be this guy, watch OG DB
Brooooo this is insane cuz I’ve been replaying tf outta xenoverse 2 as well lately for the past 2 weeks
it’s dragged so many people in hahaha
Xenoverse 2 isn’t a pure fighter .that’s the misconceptions unlike fighterz or sparking zero ..xenoverse 2 is more similar to elder scrolls online or elden ring .. levels matter , PVP, character creation , going on quest / missions with friends online . It’s an RPG fighting simulator. And just like those games I mention it can last this long and keep getting updates like other RPG that live off dlc .. ps elder scrolls online is still getting support to this day also gta 5
Sparking isn’t a pure fighter either
Most of the stuff u see in Sparking Zero trailers is from the old Tenkaichi and Raging blast games first before Xenoverse was even a thought in dev's minds
fair, still excited to see what parts of xenoverse if any have some sort of influence on the new game 😏
Sparking zero did not get inspired by xenoverse 2 nor kakarot it got inspired by dragon ball budokai tenkaichi 3 so Sparking zero is tenkaichi 4 and BTW great video i hope you keep enjoying xenoverse 2
Xenoverse 2 is one of those games that keeps you coming back for more even after you done everything. Its so much fun, ESPECIALLY with friends in co-op as well. It is addicting. My favorite part is those community events where you fight a boss and everyone does there part to widdle his health down to zero over time. Always enjoyed those. For me on my fighting skills I am pretty Decent to Pretty Good but certainly not the best or a master. But I am good enough to hold my own.
Ive played this when it dropped. I remeber being so happy when they finally added ssjb after years. Its weird they added ssjb and ssjbe before ssjg but its whatever. I love this damn game
i really hope we get a 3 after sparking zero or at least sometime in the future
Been playing on the switch with my son I’m a og player and holy the game feels very different then I remember I reached the lvl 120 cap and heard it’s going even further 9/10 love it all over again also more dlc!!! Is confirmed 🥰
that’s my dream man, can’t wait to play games with a son/daughter some day, here’s to the two of you having a blast 🍻
Hate to say im in the exact same predicament i bought xenoverse 1 and beat the shit out of it like my ex wife. Then didnt buy this game because it looked exactly the same. Now here in 2024 i finally bought it after hearing about the new dragon ball game.
bro dropped the “like my ex wife” 😭 top tier comment, glad you got to experience it
As someone who played the game at launch back in the day and has played off and on for a long time, I think there's still so much for new players and even old players to come back to now with the game having received tons of DLC, free updates, etc. Raid Events, when they work, are fun and you get cool rewards, I pray that Xenoverse 2 isn't the end of the franchise and that we get a fleshed out third entry of some kind because I believe there's so much still to be done.
honestly i still find it hard to believe this game came out longer than 4 years ago. i have more fun and find more to do in this game then most recent games within the last handful of years. hopefully we get a xenoverse 3 🫶🏻
loved the video, always nice to see someone else enjoy something i love, keep up the good content
btw you should give the dlc a shot, especially since theres a new one coming soon
oh i def will, im trying to play a lot atm but when i have downtime i will!
thanks for the feedback :)))
Hey, im late to the party but nice to hear about someone from this community, honestly Xenoverse was a (good or bad depends on who you ask) base and they built upon it on Xenoverse 2. It is one of, if not my favourite db game. Anyway, have a good one
thanks brotha 💯 i’m having a blast and glad to have so many people from the community checking out the videos
I also started playing this game recently. It's really different. It's not sparking zero or bt3, but it will do until Sparking Zero comes out
excited for SZ as well!!
Eyy welcome to the club! I just got DBXV2 for Christmas last year and I've been trying to grind to get my CACs (a frieze and a saiyan race) up past level 90. Lots of missions you could do and a lot customization. You've come at a good time to, they've been dropping some updates in the last couple years (ssg, ssgss, ssgss evolved, beast, ultra instinct) so you've got some stuff to explore!
glad to be a part of it! this game rules and their support of it shocked me so much lol
Im so glad you got into this game, this game is amazing and I really hope you enjoy it!!!
@@Kode_KK oh I am! def the most fun i’ve had in a minute with a long term game :)))
I thinks its hilarious how you kept spamming the light combo i was the same when i started out
i can’t believe someone finally noticed 😭
@@WHIKKEDD I think everbody did that
Yooo I also just got to DBXV2 recently as well! Glad I have someone to relate to
awesome man! thats what i’m here for, hoping people can relate to my dumbass thoughts hahahah
@@WHIKKEDD I certainly can though that's for sure 😂😂
You came in at a good time Because you have a whole bunch to play through and the best part about it being a fresh player first time experience yeah, you’re gonna have fun
yeah man i’m having a fkn blast
Welcome to xenoverse! It's a wild ride! Seriously, xenoverse 2 is a amazing game and experience!
thank you!!!
crazy i just started this week too im in love with it , thinking abt streaming it
you def should
especially if you get the new DLC!!
@@WHIKKEDD i did 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾you’ve convinced me man
Sup man, I just came across this video and wow. I am glad you love this game just as much as I do. As a veteran player, it's good to see Newcomers enjoy it. Things are getting better and better as we now venture into the future saga. Good video man, oh and btw. Don't listen to the Xenoverse haters. The hate for this game is absurd and It feels good to see someone new liking it. Keep the good content as always, can't wait for Sparking Zero!!
thanks man I really appreciate you taking the time to leave a great comment! glad I found this game and started forming an awesome community because of it! can’t wait for the content around speaking zero!!
Bro I looked at the title of ur video and said "damn he had the same impression that i'm getting rn" and ye i really fw db series but the games are kinda mid/average but how you described ur dbx2 expérience is just how i feel abt it in this moment W video
man I appreciate that a shit ton. i really try to be as authentic as possible through these videos and I'm glad you could relate to my experience. W Viewer
@@WHIKKEDD AND trunks is my fav caractère lol
Despite my whole list of issues with this game, i definitely appreciate that it exists. I just hope we get a new, next gen, Xenoverse title sometime soon.
honestly i think we will. after sparking zero settles down alittle I can def see it, i just hope that after the passing of Toriyama they don’t go stagnant :/
I don’t think so. They JUST release dlc 17 with a clear intent for one or two more dlc’s.
This game is great for new players as there is so much to do like literally hundreds of hours especially if you have the DLC as that unlocks even more story and stuff to do in post game(you can adjust volume settings btw, under the options tab then go to game settings) Ive roughly put in 4-6k hrs(like 98% PVE, the PVP isnt so hot lol) my old ps4 with my original save died due to some really shitty circumstances and that save was made when this game came out, I pre ordered it so I was on it the moment it dropped and man it was great, even tho we could only go to Lv80, 10 bars was the max amount of stam/ki you could have, SSJ3/Golden/Turn Giant/Purification/Potential unleashed/Kaioken were base game forms and every evasive skill costed 3 bars of stam(the 2 bar change was such an amazing QoL IMO) the game was just so fun to come back to after a new DLC dropped that even after losing that old save, I still went back and did pretty much everything from scratch(I beat every PQ on my old save, but didnt wanna do it again xD) and currently my save is at 2.7k Hrs with a max lv char
I will say tho, if you dont wanna buy all the DLC and just want the better ones, I'd recommend the Vegito blue DLC(super pack 4), MUI Goku DLC6 (extra pack 2), DLC 7 extra pack 3 is decent for some of the moves, the Gogeta blue DLC (extra pack 4), DLC 9 SSG Vegeta (ultra pack 1), DLC12+13(Legendary pack 1 and 2) DLC14(Conton cirty vote pack), DLC 16 (Justice pack 2) and the latest DLC is probably one of the better ones theyve done as the moves were awesome, the extra story was good and one of the super souls is def top tier as it can be used for any build, any race and any transformation, it also provides a really good dmg boost so out of all them, absolutely get DLC 17 (future saga:chapter one) oh and it also gives you access to the best PQ to grind for XP so theres that too lol
man IM SO SORRY about your playstation save, that is fkn so tragic but thank you for the huge comment I LOVE when anyone writes something like this. I appreciate the DLC advise as well :D
aye bro thats dope asf we got the exact same looking CAC the eyes the hair and the outfit (minus the color)
hell yeah, W design
I ask my self after only seeing the Title how the addiction does after the newest dlc dropped. Because it's fking amazing.
i’ve done nothing but be a potato for a little bit now trying to return to society is challenging
@@WHIKKEDD good luck warrior 🫡
Glad you enjoy the game. And welcone to it.
thank you thank you :D
Yo! You gotta play the dlc on a livestream it’d be mad cool!
oh i’m def going to keep that in mind!!
I recently also got addicted to this game recently for months & I fear it might happen again soon tbh 😂
it’s too easy to get addicted to, might happen a second time
@@WHIKKEDD facts lol
the game is awesome the hate for it is genuinely unjustified it has so much updates and support how you can see the mountains of plusses and complain for the petty. the game is fun each character has a playstyle ... theres too much i can write about how much it has going for it
yeah I agree, I think the fact that the game is still running shows a lot haha
i play this game for years its very good but its sad that the game is just almost dead very difficult to find people to play this game to do some coop missions or events but you will enjoy this game a lot believe me.
yeah :/ i did try to find some co op missions when i first was starting out and couldn’t. thats probably the only part where its age shows
I played the hell out of Xenoverse 1 and played the beta and bought xenoverse 2 day one then gave up playing in like 2017 and I’ve been waiting for xenoverse 3 since then but it hasn’t come out and only a week ago me and a buddy decided to redownload it and we’ve been having a lot of fun and even got all the dlc can’t wait for the ps5 update
wait they're makiing a PS5 update? like a next gen update? thats sick as hell
@@WHIKKEDD yeah apparently it’ll load faster but they haven’t said much about what else is changing
Still waiting for xenoverse 3, but getting dlc is so nice... I cant wait to play again...
i’m here for a 3, super interested to see where they take the series after all the dlc is done
Same but i need Bandai to stop sleeping on all that unavaible content. Its unforgivable that they havent released "Hypersonic Mode" and "Pure Progress" for Cacs
oh man you are cooking with this. yeah it’s pretty sad they haven’t done those yet 😭
@@WHIKKEDD bon apetit bro. Sad thing is that it happens with LOTS of content; like ssj4, ultra villanous mode, "100% power" (Frieza, or Earthlings like Master Roshi), Legendary ssj, some super attacks/ultimates ( Cell's Zetsumei Bullet, and some Classic Brolly attacks).
Bandai has a PILE OF POTENTIAL MONEY, and its sleeping on it😭
I never watched dragon ball before last year. I’m working through the original show, and now I’m starting to think about getting into the old games 😂
you got a long road but it’s so worth it and you def should!
You are going to have an amazing time. I wanna warn you though, some points in the story will make you want to throw your controller, but all you gotta do is calm, yourself and just learn your way to cheese the broken parts.
yeah i def almost chucked my controller a few times, but beating the story was a blast, excited for the dlc
sounds like the mark of a bad game imo. i got hundreds of hours in XV2 until i realized the negatives kinda overshadowed the positives for me and i wasnt having fun anymore for a long ass time
@@dandyspacedandy eh for me the bad portions of the story were outweighed by how fun it was. again i’m not a huge competitive fighting guy tho, i just kinda fuck around for hours at a time 😭
Your awesome bro I had to sub right away
hey thanks man I appreciate it!!!
@@WHIKKEDD yeah bro just keep making content for us
@@shanedkursaki550 oh i always will dw i have way too much fun being a dumbass with a microphone 😭
Preordered this game in 2016 because you can create your own character no regret one of my favorite games of 2010s
seriously love this game, wish i got it sooner but glad i finally played it
@@WHIKKEDD wouldn’t mind playing a couple quest with you what’s your psn
@@Arson934eva I'll have to doublecheck later tonight after the gym! Not sure how often I'll really be on since there's so much to cover and talk about but I will double back here and post it :)
I also started a few hours ago. I haven't played anything since.
it’s hard to stop playing lmao
@@WHIKKEDD Agreed. I've nearly beaten the game. I may have to buy the DLC.
It’s a great game for a PVE game but the PVP while being addictive and fun, is kinda broken due to netcode
i kinda figured. i didn’t try it whatsoever but watching videos and other comments makes me glad i didn’t lmao
If you like xenovers this much and you want to see even more of what inspired sparking zero, I highly recommend checking out bt3 and its community.
oh you’ve unlocked a childhood memory.
bt3 is actually the reason I got into DBZ so much, i still own my original Wii copy :) i want to find a way to go back and play it though
@@WHIKKEDD the online servers on discord have pre-configured versions of the emulator “dolphin” with the game preinstalled and a save file. If you join the server, you can play the game upscaled for pc and online.
If you don't known about the character already then,I think you're gonna love Fu, I believe his role is foreshadowed towards the end of the super pass and still continuing!
Fu >>>
love my guy Fu
Bro I am as well even though I got in when it released I didn’t really play it until now
somehow this game has been calling people in recently
@@WHIKKEDD yeah
Same lol just got back into it
it keeps pulling us back in man god damn it
It has to be a wave cause i got hit with the addiction roughly 14 or 18 days ago and have been spamming it
yeah i def can see that lol
ill be going back soon i think
The DLCs are so good too tho. gz the vid got recommended by YT. ^^
I fear that I will not like Sparking Zero as I like XV2. Not even hyped about SZ cuz I want XV3
man a XV3 would be my game of the year hands down
Same I started playing 2 weeks ago 😂 and I can’t stop playing
sony sales lowkey ruining me 😭
@@WHIKKEDD Made a Frieza race character the other day and now I’m even more addicted
The game still holds up ngl
honestly it holds up extremely well and plays better than most triple A games we are getting now 🤪
Man we went into high school and graduated college at the same time. Minus the fact the I was playing xenoverse 2 the whole time hahaha
W timing, you were just ahead of me 😭 wish i started playing sooner
Just wondering since your pretty new to xv2 did you also get any of the dlcs? Or any of the awokens or whatever but it does suck your on the playstation side since I'm on xbox
as of now no, but i def plan on getting it in the future! i only got it on playstation because of a sale but i love both consoles :)
Imo best anime game ever and idgaf bout no damn nostalgia this game is goated
def the best anime game so far
If you ever need to get some reps in I got you homie
oh i will def keep this in mind because after playing KH for the last few weeks im probably so rusty
Your addiction will die the second you touch pvp so-
good thing i’m avoiding it 😎
@@WHIKKEDDBest way to play the game. Do NOT go over there….Thousand Yard Stare
I played this game since the launch and every year or months or smth I got XenoVerse faze like the 2 week Minecraft 😂
And every time the games adds even More things like bro every Time it's new experience
man this and the minecraft roti is gonna go hard as hell next year
You're going to be big
🥹 thanks king really just doing something I love as a hobby, if it happens it happens if not i’m fine with my little community anyway 😁😁

Ohohohohoho, this is probably gonna hurt your wallet but just *W A I T* until you get to the futute saga dlc (latest dlc and YES, you kinda have to do the dlcs in order because there's a core dlc story character and allat) and let me tell you, it may be the most expensive dlc by far (it costs more than the base game) but it's arguably the most worth it dlc in the history of dragon ball dlcs (and just so you know the dlc i glazed about IS. JUST. PART. 1, There's *4* more parts to this, so yeah)
ah the classic: break my wallet but mend my heart trade off is seemingly going to be worth it…can’t wait
@@WHIKKEDD you bet it's gonna be, i'll Just Say, the Evolution in cutscenes Is gonna be insane (Also they make more use of cgi cutscenes 👀)
Nah bro I’m in your same shoes by being a freshman but I used to beat tf out of my friends back then, top 5 dragon ball games
yeah this game is kick ass, easily one of my favorites
Did you download the ps5 upgrade and get the new DLC?
i caved and did…i’m addicted again
same here
W
I been playing this ever since it first came out its a good game just company likes to be a big d and so as the YT pvp side of things
good thing i sit at home alone and refuse to play o o lmao, i’ve been hearing it’s not a blast 😭
Make another video with the dlc or update. I’m in the same situation
i’ve been thinking about it, and I def am going to
The dlc is worth it
i’ve heard, i’m excited to try it
Im so down for this game anyone on wanting to learn the ropes im not the best but i can help you learn the ropes
oh you poor, innocent soul...
all jokes aside, if you just play on pve and maybe with your friends, xenoverse is really fun. the game might take forever to receive updates, and online might be peepee poopoo but i digress.
i reaaaaaaly am having such a blast with it
Its good you enjoy it but, but for me the negatives heavily outweigh the positives. The character models are considerably worse then the games before like raging blast, attacks like the Kamehameha also look worse then previose games, the fighting is awkward and clunky and usualy players just cheese. Transformations arent actual Transformations but rather different characters and the positives it does have it doesnt do enough of
respect for the comment. this is why I love games because it really is to each their own 🤙
Nice Video ! Sub & Big Like ! Love Dragonball Games !
thank you and welcome!!
ye, they need to do xenoverse 3 or at least fix the servers for pc, you can almost see persons playing in the servers in pc is broken, also they need to add Master Roshi, like 856 years waiting for it and they came out with sparking bois, when open world with new history and better graphics and with master roshi, help. Also u have like goku gt but can't go ss4, also u can't go ss4 also you can't go except with mods from goku to all transformations, I can easily do it with an animation in unity but they can't why at least good game but men, could be better u know
yeah they are def missing some stuff, not having ss4 for customs character also bothers me

My condolences
oh no he hasn’t played pvp
let me hold my innocence
You can get super saiyan god and super saiyan blue
my pain and grind never ends
(No hate in what I'm about to say I'm sure you're an awesome dude)
I don't understand you're not a fighting game guy, right, that's fair enough. But you love DB games so you skipped literally the biggest one in 10yrs for...a reason that I can't comprehended? You realize that doesn't make any sense right when almost every DB game is...a fighting game? I need an explanation, I'm so confused please help.
easy, It’s like How I love Naruto but I don’t play the games, because it’s just not my cup of tea. When I was younger I loved the DB games like BT3 but i didnt play any game after that until Fighterz and this one. love for a series doesn’t equal you touch every installment of it. I love Halo but I haven’t played the tactic like installments
also thanks for saying no hate lmao. i don’t take anything online at face value since it’s hard to read tone. i’m also a dumbass so my reasonings for things could be confusing to most 💀
@@WHIKKEDD that make sense! Coulda opened with that instead of "I really like DB games." lol I get it now, thanks! To be clear I didn't mean to sound condescending in that "why no play all?" just XV is the biggest in a long time. That's the part that confused me along with your know your opening statement.
all good. i don’t script my videos whatsoever, which is why I always try to reply to comments like yours :) never read it in a negative way don’t worry!!
bro i got xenoverse bundle for 14$ :)
W that’s awesome
It’s a fun ass game ngl
yeah it’s illegally fun i swear i think about it everyday
trust me you dont what to go dwown the kh rabbit hole i wasted 16 yars on the stupid game after kh2 came out i wasted my childhood on kh3 and its not even that hard and not that long 😠
