His final form is basically his first form but more streamlined
less ridiculous, but still perplexing due to his short height
geez
All of this was decided based on marketing
Just like Cell
i leave for twenty mins and the spaghetti is everywhere
Cell had three forms just because the producers said "he looks too gross" for his first form
then Toriyama makes a second form and they say "he looks too dumb"
so he makes a third and final form that looks more human
sorry i am a dragon ball fag
just seems a lack of originality lately from japan creators doesn't it? both in anime and games
like the industry is in a slump but afraid to take risks creatively
isn't that kind of true about most entertainment industries these days?
the end of last year saw a huge slump for most tech/entertainment companies
but especailly the triumvirate of evil
well, the entertainment industry in my country is far to infected with trump derrangement syndrome and are foaming at the mouth with progressive cancer
not so much afraid but woke and going broke
i get the feeling that some of has to do with move away from older/traditional forms of media
the younger the cohort/demographic, the less influenced they are established media
so companies are losing their marbles trying to secure established IPs whilst also watering them down to appeal to a newer broader audience
places like china are for the time being a huge untapped market
i think that is what is partly behind the rush to get out as many star wars movies as possible
well that's just one example
stuff like diablo immortal just seems like one last wringing of the nearly bloodless cashcow's corpse of it's last few remaining drops of blood though
that's a good example actually
the diablo mobile game was a reskin of a mobile/casual rpg developed for/in china
they just wanted to trot it out as it was something already to go
it's lazy
but i can see why they did it
the bigger problem is the useless hacks in PR/community management
they call gamers entitled and what not
but they're one of the last groups that are invested in their hobby/past time
what can be entitled with wanting the best value for your purchase?
exactly
your already buying a game that isn't even made a lot now (pre order) and that changes to add ever more ways to nickle and dime you (patches) as it's sold back to you in slices (DLC)
pretty much
over a decade back they were practically throwing a free section of the game at you hoping you'd buy it
now it's pre orders, on disc DLC, day one DLC, loot boxes ...
and I'd bet they track their players and sell that data as well
plus in game ads of course
