Why did it flop so hard?
>>750253990It didn't. it's the best DBZ gameThey just aren't really that good overall and mostly ride on nostalgia, so everyone played it and had their fun for a while then moved on
>>750253990What're you doing step Doc
>>750253990They should have just gone with the recognisable name in the west. Everyone assumed Sparkling Zero was some new franchise. After Xenoverse and Kakarot sucked so hard people are wary of anything new.Another reason is that Sparkling Zero focused too much on Super characters and only spics and children watch that crap. GT is unironically better than Super in hindsight.

That boy ain't right, but he's all we got
>>750253990Not sure why anons seem to shit on it so much. I can't think of any licensed anime game that's better than Sparking Zero. Yeah compared to the best games it's mid but compared to shonen tie-in sloppa, including other dragonball games, it's probably the best one ever made? I'm not counting yugioh and pokemon games.
I saw an All Ultimates video when it released, noticed the sheer amount of uninteresting beams and energy volleys and just overall awful variety in moves + all the cringe DBS characters and basically ignored it.
>>750253990How many of these sorts of DBZ games are there? I stopped at Budokai Tenkaichi 3. And that was already peak and did pretty much everything I wanted it to.

Because it literally looks like it's using free UE assetsIt's like this game had $0 budgetAlso free mobile game interface
>>750254853SZ is just a worse BT3
>>750254978Personally I think the games peaked at BK2. It had more content, or at least felt like it compared to BT3, and the main thing BT3 had going for it was the Wii version had some fun motion controls. But that being said my BK2 came with a free DBZ movie too which was pretty sweet. Fuck I miss the PS2 era.
Did they fix the performance on the main menu? I remember playing a post-launch demo of the launch build and the menu stutted like a motherfucker and ran consistently at 18-20 frames. The actual game ran fine. Not great, but not crappy. It was like whiplash.Anyway, shit like that is how you know the developers are jobbers who have no idea or care to know what they're doing. Why the fuck am I going to support them? Nevermind that Dragon Ball Z is retarded as hell in retrospect. Yeah, you heard me. Grew up on those orange bricks, lot of great memories, but trying to rewatch that shit is embarrassing. I can't believe an adult wrote this crap.Namek/Frieza Saga is some of the worst television ever produced in history
