Still on a Dragon Ball kick so now I'm playing through Xenoverse 2 again. God damn there's a lot of content for this game, unfortunately it's all kinda shit - just samey button mashing and super spamming for dozens and dozens of hours. If this game didn't have a character creator it would be completely forgettable - but since it does have a character creator I've played through it multiple times.
Seriously every game should have a character creator. All you need to do is keep the details of your custom character vague enough to allow the player to fill in the blanks (this is where Avowed dropped the ball by filling in too much of the player's backstory). Other mid games I've played a zillion times just because of the character creator include Code Vein and even Sonic Forces.
was that the one with the open world? i remember liking that game but it being rpg-lite just made me want a real full fletched dbz action rpg
You're thinking of Kakarot, which I was playing last week and unfortunately does not have custom characters. My ideal dragon ball game is basically Kakarot with a new story, custom character, and a massive focus on side quests. Like the game should open on a shot of your character standing next to one of those cool ass motorcycles Bulma rides in the early manga chapters, and the only tutorial is one that tells you how to look at your dragon radar and how to mount your vehicle, and then the game is a completely open ARPG from that point on.
