I still find the "Betrayed and Trapped in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber" ideas the best because how can you ignore the anime like this? The main limitation (since the 10 times gravity means nothing to anyone stronger than kid Goku) is that there is a limited food supply.

So even if Goku couldn't just escape (if Boo and Gotenks can, he can), he would starve otherwise.

It always involves Goku fucking some woman, too. Be it an angel, a big titty naruto girl, or whatever

At least they didn't show her mangled corpse. That must have taken some restraint from Salagir
 
A Question: for this tournament, are the Dragon Balls of respective universes still available to use later, or is it a "defeated universe is destroyed" situation?

Because, sure, Gohan would be furious, Videl can be revived later anyway.

That would normally be the case but because this tournament has been run (and written) by literal retards, this is quite literally the fifth time that one of the contestants has attempted to take over and kill everyone. You'd think after the second time, that would have been enough and the Supreme Kaioshin of the Universe running the tournament (Quite literally described as a set of kaioshin who intervened in threats for the sake of their universe and dealt with problems like Bibidi and Freeza's family before they ended up getting to be problems) would've cancelled things entirely.
But nah, even though they can at any time go "Wow we've completely lose control we should send everyone home now" they just didn't, and now the OC Mystery Nigga Galactus wannabe got to make a wish to fuck everything up for the 5th time.
It's a retarded premise written by a retarded frenchman who just doesn't understand that the only part of the thing people were interested in was the what-if fights, and now he's just turned the what-if into "everyone fights my super cool evil villain sue OC with timestop powers who can summon Janemba and instakill anybody!"

"I figured out the secret to stopping myself from being stopped in time was wiggling my dick at a high frequency to negate the ability!" - Same Logic, also apparently Goku, a genuine prodigy himself was incapable of figuring this out, nor was anybody else apparently, only Piccolo figured out the trick, because Salagir had to resolve a mystery box from 10 years ago he set up.
This is dogshit.

Also, this from the same retard who cucked his readers out of a proper final match in his tournament because "How could Goku have possibly figured out a counter to time stop!?" Only to in the very next chapter have Piccolo pull a counter straight out of his green ass cheeks. What a stupid fucking frenchman.

Hey I know they're called frogs but this is ridiculous.

Because these guys decided to make a timeline tournament - not 'multiverse' the way Dragon Ball did, since they went with the DC version where alternate universes are the same but something changes - and in almost every timeline, the bad guys win and are the strongest creatures left in the universe.
 
What game do we think will be shown at the event in January? A fighting game? Something similar to DBZ Kakarot or the usual mobile slop?

Personally, I'd love a sequel to Fusions. One of the best RPG's in the DB series.
 
Xenoverse is so close to being cool that it makes it even more shit. They do fucking NOTHING interesting with the premise of the Time Patrol and the entire selling point of the series(making an OC Donut Steel) is limited as fuck.

And the idea of the time patrol is retarded anyway since DragonBall works on Multiverse theory now. Someone going back in time and killing baby goku doesn't actually matter and going back before that happens to prevent it wouldn't "fix" it, you'd just make ANOTHER time-line. This isn't the Butterfly Effect. Also Xeno exists who can just flat-out erase entire alternate universes like he did to Future Trunks'. So, again, pointless.

A nice excuse but the multverse in question is literally infinite. There would literally be an infinite amount of "good guys" to invite, but instead they didn't just invite villains of all types, they invited villains and then promised them that they get three wishes if they win (completely sincerely, too, even though this would genuinely only make the universes they came from suffer even more should they win, and it's because of this that the entire multiverse is now in danger).

Basically, if you are a writer and you decide that most timelines have bad endings where the heroes all die horribly (and you feel the need to continuously jerk this off onto a page) you are a hack fraud.

It's weird but there are like, different types of Time Travel even in setting. Bulma's Time Machine is something capable of making new timelines, but the villains of Xenoverse are specifically going out of their way to remain locked to the SAME timeline when they go back in time, which causes everything to fucking go to shit immediately. Hence "Time Breakers". Zamasu's Time Ring can go back in time without forming a new timeline too.
Basically if you think too much about time travel you'll get a headache.

i just like being able to use all the cool moves and beating the fuck out of goku
 
I hated that Xenoverse's scenarios were shit like "what if Raditz didn't get killed by Piccolo". Like god damn, try and be a little creative.

Don’t forget the battle with Freeza on Namek but Cooler shows up and nothing really changes because it never progresses from the fact that he is there.

I mean it suffers from "just redo what people already like" syndrome that plagues everything DB, especially in games. Every scenario has to start and end within one encounter so the next encounter can be the same.

If you do something too different and far-reaching, you're essentially going to have to come up with an entire new storyline from that point onward. If you do "what if Goku stayed dead after the Raditz fight" and stick with that idea, after a certain point you're going to have to drastically change half the entire series because Goku isn't around to main character it up.

But completely new storylines aren't safe. Redoing Z fights but with small variations is. So sayeth the great Toei.

Personally I am quite fond of making a Donut Steel and flying around through scenes I'm familiar with, but after a while the soul hungers for something unique ala Ultimate Tenkaichi (but not shit).

Adding Cooler into canon for example fucks the entire stakes of the Namek Arc because Freeza has a brother who is not only way more powerful than him, he also has way more control over his power and can always stay in his final form, not to mention that Cooler never wears a scouter implying he can sense energy given how good he was at finding people in his movie.

I don't think I would say Cooler is "way more powerful" than Freeza, iirc the moment Goku goes SSJ he rapes Cooler in like 30 seconds whereas Full Power Freeza was able to scrap with SSJ on basically equal footing. Cooler is more stable, but also has a lower power ceiling than his brother and less innate potential.

However even if the assertion of stake fuckery is completely true, his design is way too fucking cool to be left behind in non-canon movie land.

I will always have a lizard-brain desire to see more of him.
