Just wondering because this is genuinely one of the most detailed games (in terms of how packed it is with content) that I've played in a very long time, whether that involves the story itself and all the various what-if scenarios within each character's path, the fact that the encyclopedia entails an hour of girltalk between Chi-Chi, Bulma and Videl (can't find the Japanese audio version), the fact that characters like Goku Black and Baby Vegeta have special interactions if you pick them in a match, I'm just having a lot of fun.
It already has an all-time peak of over 90,000 players on Steam, and this is still early access. The game doesn't even release for the people who bought the base game/are buying it later until 6pm EST tonight, so I can't imagine the concurrent players for the next few weeks.
Akira Toriyama's legacy will live on until the day life no longer exists.
Budokai >>>> Tenkaichi and I'll die on that hill. Tenkaichi 3 has the roster, but also came out years later.
But this seems to be the trajectory the games are going and I enjoyed the Tenkaichi games well enough (sans fighting Broly). So I'm looking forward to it, as long as it keeps the Super content to a fraction I'll probably be happy.
FighterZ is for compfags and FGC losers and need not even apply.
The story mode is split between 7 POVs, which you can choose to go through: Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, Future Trunks, Frieza and Goku Black
Each of those POVs have the canon route that you need to go through in order to access the branching paths, but once you complete the canon route, you can go back and visit each one to also gain access to what-if scenarios (the official name for these what-if scenarios is "Sparking Episodes").
I won't spoil the whole of the first one, but the first what-if scenario is at the very beginning of Goku's path, where you can choose to fight Raditz by yourself or with Piccolo, where by yourself starts a Sparking Episode, and if you go with Piccolo, if you actually beat the Raditz CPU by the time everyone stops talking in the battle, that unlocks a different Sparking Episode.
I assumed such, that's pretty standard Tenkaichi story mode. I can't remember which one had it, but the Raditz one was legitimately good back in the day.
