DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE

Fun to go back to once in awhile

I forgot how bad this game is. I guess it seems worse than it did at release because of Xenoverse 2. People have the nerve to say this is better than Battle of Z, the inclusion of the custom character makes them ignore everything else.

Bought to experience Nostalgia, loving

I'm honestly kind of embarrassed at that the time I have put into this game but it's fun so not gonna say I regret any of it. I think Xenoverse is a really solid game and I do love to play, I would honestly recommend you play it even if you've already played the second game, but hey that could just be my love and nostalgia for DBZ talking.

I snagged this game on a steep discount, and it quickly became clear why it was priced to move: the main town feels like a half-baked knockoff—cookie-cutter layouts, flat textures, and NPCs that pop in and out with wooden, recycled dialogue—while character creation is painfully shallow, music is generic, and the story is little more than a string of predictable fetch quests. Even the audio mix is off-kilter, with combat SFX drowning out any chance of ambient immersion or coherent voice lines. Only the combat itself shows real polish—smooth combos and responsive controls—but its competence only highlights how every other element falls flat. A few fleeting DBZ-style explosions might tug at your nostalgia, but they’re not enough to disguise a game that trades on a beloved franchise’s name while delivering slop in nearly every other respect.

The game is basically redundant now because Xenoverse 2 features the story and every single stage/character from the first game.

Just buy the Hero Patrol DLC for Xenoverse 2.

The game delivers solid fan service, though repetitive combat and graphics that don't fully exploit the power of PCs might detract slightly from the experience. Ultimately, I highly recommend this game as it's an enjoyable journey for fans and an approachable introduction for newcomers.

I got this game severely discounted, and thankfully so. I cannot get over how much the main town and the NPCs make this feel like an illegitimate knockoff. It must be highly-reviewed for the combat because character creation, music, dialogue, and everything else are all well below par. I have DBZ nostalgia but not enough to make me love slop.

Another one for my review backlog...
I liked this game... EXCEPT for the multiplayer achievements. Those specifically can eat a bag of d!cks.
The rest of the game was awesome DBZ fun though.

Good game.

yes goku fun

If I don't, who will?!

This game is amazing and fun i love being able to create my own character to fight with and how you have to fix stuff in timelines

I played this game when it first came out but on a friends PC since I didn't have one lol. So got the game for nostalgia.

Overall, great experience with the game. Story is really good, makes it even more nostalgic since you're basically revisiting your childhood and get to live it in someway. Combat is really fun, customising character is cool too.

Game always comes on sale, so recommend only getting it then, don't be silly and pay full price for a 10 year old game 0.o

Help Its just a black screen

Dumb Silly Dragon Ball Create your Character game, you can learn infinite combos with the character you make iirc at least for Saiyan/Frieza race and you'll have a great time just mindlessly destroying the game. Since its the first it's super bare bones but unlike Xenoverse 2 I think its a strength making it feel much more accessible especially for how easy it can be, it can probably run on a potato for how smooth it runs. Mind you it was meant for Xbox 360/PS3 so any decent computer is gonna effortlessly run it, probably isn't better than Xenoverse 2 but for a quick mindless Dragon Ball gaming session it works perfectly.

I'm sure 99% of people don't read reviews. That's why I confess that I love young, beautiful women.

En:
A really nice game, you can really see that Toriyama collaborated on the story: we were tired of the story always being the same, well, now we have a game based on alternative plots that we have to solve and we will do it with our character whose moves, stats and races will influence him a lot, not very deep as an RPG system, but quite satisfying in my opinion.
It:
Un gioco veramente bello, si vede proprio che ci ha collaborato Toriyama per la storia: ci eravamo stufati che la storia è sempre uguale, bene, ora abbiamo un gioco basato sulle trame alternative che dobbiamo risolvere e lo faremo col nostro personaggio le cui mosse, statistiche e razze lo influenzeranno molto, non molto profondo come sistema di rpg, ma abbastanza soddisfacente a mio dire.

These game is super fun and one of my favorite grinding games.

hehe boi

this game doesn't respect your time.

the character creation is 10/10, the story and gameplay are decent.

but, where this game falls apart is the extra missions and the amount of RNG to get the item you want.

the extra missions start off cool, like teaming up with raditz to beat up piccolo and goku (opposite of the main story). but they end up in marathon fights where you fight trunks and goten, then their saiyan forms, then gotenks, then his saiyan form, then their dads, then their dads saiyan form, then vegito... it gets old really fast.

then getting the items you want can be virtually impossible. you have to go to a side quest, hope you get RNG for a special encounter, then RNG that the encounter drops the item you need, and do that 200-300 times. that's how people end up replaying the same 5-20 minute missions hundreds of times for one item.

there is a little bit of fun to be had if you're not a completionist, but there are much better dbz games out there. if you're a completionist, please save your sanity and download the save editor to get everything.

Very Beautiful Very Powerful

I have a special place in my heart for this game. BUT

It was special (though there's definitely some nostalgia here) and *felt* cool when it first came out but has become completely and utterly obsolete unless you really want to experience this game's story (which, I'll tell you right now, isn't all that special, just look it up). Xenoverse 2 is both a better game in literally every way, and is cheaper.

Not really *bad* so much as it is completely pointless to purchase.

Fun game, plays about the same as Budukai 3, which is a great game too. Custom build your own character too? If you're a Dragon Ball fan like me, play this game.

frieza... cooler... king cold... and icee

lool

even tho the game is old by now its still fun to play and the graphyics are pretty good for when it was release

me likey dragon ball

its a good game

Very nostalgic game, and very good for newer dragon ball fans.

This game is really fun, i really like the battles. Best thing is i get 60 fps on this game without having to sacrafice graphics due to its age, but dont let its age fool you, its a great game from what i have played so far.

peak

DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE

good A

El juego promete, voy a seguir probando a ver si no he tirado el dinero a la basura, cuando lo compre hace unos años

nice game

cool

Black screen with sound when booting, tried a lot of guides on how to fix this to no avail so far.

I managed to boot it on the steamdeck after my laptop remained unsuccessfull, but I need it on my laptop.

So yeah only recommended if you own a steamdeck for the time being.

una cagada

Memory That Game 8/10

no

I bought this game by mistake for my brother. He didn't played it, but after some months I started playing it with my controller (not keyboard) and find it super saiyan amazing. I am still playing it and thinking of buying xenoverse 2 and 3 and so on. Maza aa gaya.

amazing game still

This game maybe bad but i like it.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse is a fantastic game that successfully combines the best elements of the Dragon Ball universe with engaging gameplay mechanics. The ability to create and customize your own fighter is a standout feature, allowing players to choose from a variety of races, each with unique stats and fighting styles. The game's story mode revisits iconic moments from the Dragon Ball Z series, adding a fresh twist and allowing players to play a pivotal role in these battles.

The combat system is fast-paced and exciting, capturing the spectacle and intensity of DBZ fights. The addition of online multiplayer modes adds to the fun, letting you team up with friends or other players to take on challenging missions and engage in epic battles. The game also includes a variety of side quests and customization options, making it a rich and immersive experience for fans of the series.

Overall, Dragon Ball Xenoverse offers a great mix of nostalgia and new content, making it a must-play for any Dragon Ball fan.

I absolutely love this game I would recommend it to any Dragon Ball fan and also people that aren't Dragon Ball fans the game is amazing sure I got it well it's on sale But I would say it's worth the full amount Of money I haven't played Xenoverse 2 yet but once I do I will write a view on that
