    I am going to be honest and give my take how DBZ Kakarot is a empty boring repetitive experience.
    The combat is shallow and gets boring rather quickly.
    The story is the only thing going for it. The map may be huge and full of stuff to collect but it's empty and lifeless with not enough side quests for some what if scenarios.

    Enjoy the love & care shown to the DBZ world & story. The gameplay does feel very repetitive and lacks depth at times. Enjoyable as a fan of the series but overall a flawed experience, though a step in the right direction for DBZ games

    I am putting 6 just for the nostalgic experience and the fights but that is only the 40% of the game, the rest is crap, you don’t have to farm heroes to level up, not necessary pay attention if the meals, not necessary use the soul board or other items or machines. Just go straight to the main story and you are fine. This game waste my time a lot with unnecessary scenes, chats and loading screen. I was an idiot buying it right away it came out.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's under 9,000

    Enjoyed the game overall, but there are problems. Graphics are mostly good and there's a huge amount of detail and lore in the game's Z Encyclopedia, plus plenty of post-story content and a huge world to explore. Unfortunately, it's plagued by stability issues ranging from frame rate drops to crashes and failing to recover when returning to the game from the PS4 dashboard. Gameplay is what we've come to expect from over-the-shoulder DBZ titles. Ultimately it becomes button mashing and nothing but beam attacks because the controls are unresponsive and the camera is broken. You can't record certain gameplay segments and you're forced you to agree to an in-game EULA before you can play at all. I'm done w/ Bandai Namco.

    Audio

    1. No VO in side-quests besides repetitive, awkward grunts or random mono-syllabic phrases to represent entire paragraphs of subtitles. The final VO for many conversations is "hi." Disgustingly obvious shortcut.

    2. Idle VO is repetitive and often nonsensical; within seconds of eating, characters complain of hunger. Every time a mob gets close, the same character VO plays. It's annoying.

    3. Bad dialogue pacing and usually too much pause after each line (see item 7 in gameplay).

    4. Mostly original voice cast.

    5. Frequent sound dropout, most noticeable with team finishing moves and transformations.

    Gameplay

    1. Some NPC interactions seem like they're going to be sidequests but aren't, which is confusing.

    2. Battle camera is completely broken--no better than it was in the Tenkaichi series. Doesn't help that you get pinned against scenery and the player character disappears completely when multiple opponents are shooting particle fx.

    3. Driving is awful. No matter how much you upgrade your car, the driving never improves because the camera doesn't turn with the car therefor you can't see where you're going. You have to move the camera manually as you turn so that you're not looking at the side of the car.

    4. Feels like every enemy attack stuns you, and you get attacked through your own beams. When attacking a stunned enemy at close range, no matter what you do, you will get knocked back as soon as their stun period ends.

    5. Mini map is useless. It's too small and everything on it looks the same. Can't even tell which direction you're facing. When certain items are added to the larger map screen, it might be impossible to find them because they overlap other map icons.

    6. Lazy development lead to in-game healing items. There's no limit to how many you can buy or how many you can use in a fight. It's as if the devs played the game, realized it was broken, and threw healing items in at the last second as a "fix."

    7. Just like in Dragon Ball Fighterz, you're forced you to press X after every line of subtitled dialogue which breaks the pacing of the exposition. Turning off subtitles only affects a handful of cut scenes, it doesn't actually do what you'd expect.

    8. Unavoidable mobs which spawn infinitely and yield little XP. Just annoying, avoid them.

    9. Leveling is mostly scripted so that each character is at a minimum level at each point in the story. Not much customization.

    10. At certain points through the story you're boxed into an area w/ invisible walls, but there's no indication that this is the case until you automatically turn around when you hit one. Worst on Namek.

    11. First person ki-firing mechanic is terrible and unless you aim above your target you end up blasting the ground.

    12. Often difficult to find things and you might fly in circles for 20+ minutes searching for items or people.

    13. Baseball game needs a restart option to avoid completely unnecessary fumbling through menus and NPC conversations.

    14. When a sidequest requires a specific character, it's not enough that he be in your party, he has to be the player character. Rather than auto-switch for you when attempting to start the quest, you have to manually reconfigure your party. This happens a lot.

    Visuals

    1. Game looks nice overall. Some cut scenes are gorgeous while others are little more than talking heads with exaggerated breathing animations. Because of the aforementioned dialogue/pressing X issue, a lot of the animation comes across as unnatural (or even creepy) while characters hold a pose and an expression waiting for your controller input. Most noticeable w/ Mr. Satan's laugh...

    2. Load screens begin and end with a full white screen, be prepared to shield your eyes frequently. 3. English lip sync virtually nonexistent    … Expand

El mundo abierto es bonito, te dan ganas de explorar para buscar misiones y algunas objetos pero esto cansa después de unas cuantas horas de juego. Y por último, la historia, que abarca desde la llegada de Raditz a La Tierra hasta la amenaza del monstruo Buu. Creo que a Cyberconnect le faltado más tiempo de desarrollo, porque se nota que en las dos primeras sagas le metieron bastante trabajo y en las de Cell y Buu fueron corriendo porque faltan bastantes momentos de la historia y algunos resumidos y contados con imágenes estáticas con texto.

    That's where it pretty much excels at. Everything else is pretty sub par. The combat is lacklustre, I can spam blasts with all fighters to win most battles (similar to Xenoverse). The AI are pretty dumb as they strafe into your blasts. There's only one combo per character where you just pretty much tap the punch button with no variation. The Budokai Tenkaichi games at least had some combo variations and even some throw moves.

    The divided open world is large but the things to do is really basic. The fishing mini game is rubbish and hover car racing? Cmon! Collecting the Dragon Balls is just not rewarding (No I don't want to fight the Ginyu Squad again!!).

    The RPG elements is weak. No gear to equip and it's just unlocking skills when you hit a certain level and you fight ghost figures of yourself to unlock new moves.

    Overall, if you are new to DBZ you will enjoy the epic story. I really thought they would get the fighting right since they've release a million versions of fighting games since the 90s.

    Calling this game an RPG is a joke. It's an action adventure game with very little RPG elements.    … Expand

Once you get over the initial buzz of flying around the open world as Goku in an RPG, it quickly makes way for tedium. The open world levels are colourful and expansive, but the side content is completely dull and uninteresting. The main story is the best thing about this game, but it’s the same sagas we’ve been replaying in games for 2 decades. As far as the 3D arena fighting goes, I felt that Dragon Ball Xenoverse games pretty much nailed it. DBZ Kakarot seems to have taken a step back and made the fighting feel clunkier. When you aren’t fighting, you’ll be flying around collecting orbs and cooking recipes, playing inanely boring side quests and trying not to break the controller when you come up against the game’s random fluctuations of awful difficulty balancing. Sad to say that this in all honesty will be my last DBZ game purchase until they come up with new stories and more satisfying gameplay, this game was a sour note to end on. If you’re a DBZ fan there is enjoyment to be had and is no doubt rated higher by fans. As a game its boring and pretty tedious.… Expand

    RPG: Mas como um gamer, posso dizer que o jogo está longe de ser perfeito, ruim não é. Fazer um RPG de Dragon Ball e fazê-lo funcional não é uma ideia ruim, porém, o jogo se torna maçante em certo tempo de gameplay, andar pra lá e pra cá, enfrentando inimigos genéricos foi meio chato pra mim, o mapa é grande e retrata bem a Terra do anime, porém, não tem tanta variedade de coisas pra se fazer, o que torna a exploração frustrante, as missões secundárias são bem parecidas e não existe uma vontade de "quero mais".

    Lutas: Pra mim, de longe, um dos melhores Dragon Ball nesse quesito, as lutas são incríveis, divertidas e os efeitos são muito bons, apesar de ter seus problemas, o que chega a irritar em certas horas, como a falta de poise nos inimigos quando estão carregando um ataque (eles podem te cancelar, mas você não pode cancelar o ataque deles, estranho, não? Além de frustrante, pois não ocorre vez ou outra, e sim em todos os combates).

    Técnico: Em requisitos técnicos o jogo não deixa a desejar, não vi muitos bugs e parece ser bem polido, apesar da câmera ser esquisita e entrar na terra as vezes, não é algo recorrente mas incomoda quando acontece. Os loadings estão por toda parte e isso é realmente irritante, vi que no lançamento estava pior e eles estão consertando, porém, como estão em todo lugar, chega a ser chato, sempre que uma cutscene acaba, é loading, algumas vezes sair de um mapa pequeno ou entrar precisa de loading, isso irrita e frustra (perdi a vontade de jogar algumas vezes por isso).

    É um jogo bom, nada demais, tem seus problemas e erros, reconta a história que já vimos centenas de vezes e nunca cansamos. Recomendo esperar o preço baixar pra comprar, e só compre se você for realmente fã de Dragon Ball, pois apesar dos problemas, ainda tem o carisma e a nostalgia que as vezes só Dragon Ball proporciona.    … Expand

    Juego solo recomendado para fans de Dragon Ball. Yo lo he disfrutado durante bastante horas pero tiene muchas carencias, faltan momentos epicos del anime, a veces la historia esta muy resumida, faltan musicas, los combates son todos iguales, el mundo abierto es soso....

    POSITIVO

    - Historia: revivirla de manera muy fiel (desde Raditz).
    - Banda sonora: temas y sonidos originales de la serie.
    - Enciclopedia Z: muy muy amplia, incluso con explicaciones muy determinadas de ciertos elementos.
    - Animaciones: hay ciertas partes de la historia que parecen sacadas frame a frame de la serie animada. Pero que se ven mejor que nunca.

    NEUTRO

    - Combates: Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot NO es un juego de peleas. No existen los combos elaborados, no hay que pulir tu habilidad para hacer buenos y espectaculares combates.
    - Desplazamiento: resulta bastante agradable volar a toda velocidad por los mapas de este mundo semi-abierto a porciones.
    - Sistema de Comunidad: está bien recolectar emblemas de todos los personajes e implementarlos en un tablero de sinergias para obtener mejoras. El problema es que estas mejoras no se notan demasiado en el gameplay.

    NEGATIVO

    - Misiones secundarias: completamente banales. A estas alturas sobran este tipo de misiones repetitivas y vacías. Lo único que aportan bueno es ver algún personaje clásico y conseguir su emblema.
    - Equilibrio: hay ciertos entrenamientos y misiones secundarias que no están bien ejecutados. Si el nivel recomendado es 30, no puede ser que te revienten a nivel 28 y los destroces a nivel 31. No resulta satisfactorio, puesto que no parece que dependa de ti.
    - Niveles de EXP: fatal. Experiencia ridículamente baja farmeando enemigos por el mundo, y desproporcionadamente alta durante los combates de la historia principal. No sirve de NADA combatir en el mundo abierto.
    - Habilidades: no hay problema con la poca variedad (eso es Dragon Ball), sino en que se desbloquean más por historia que otra cosa (y las que son por nivel, me remito al punto anterior. Es muy complicado subir nivel fuera de la historia). Está claro que no vas a conseguir el Súper Saiyan 3 antes de Freezer, pero, ¿por qué no el KameHameHa Guiado o el Combo +1, +2, etc?.
    - Tiempos de carga: EL PEOR ASPECTO DEL JUEGO. Es ridículo, y lo peor es que, sabiéndolo, lo diseñen así. En una PS4 normal, los tiempos de carga son de entre 25-35 segundos. Si hubiera alguno suelto, no habría problema, pero es que el diseño de misiones y la narrativa lo requieren muy a menudo. Como es un mundo semi-abierto (porciones de mapa más o menos grandes entre las que te mueves con un mapa de viaje rápido) hay tiempos de carga entre ellas, y hay misiones en las que tienes 3 o 4 seguidas entre momentos o conversaciones de 5 segundos. Si me vas a hacer recoger cinco p***s manzanas, no me hagas irme a otro mapa, cogerlas y volver, que estoy más tiempo cargando que jugando. Igual que con ciertas conversaciones de la historia que se suceden en distintas zonas del mapa y que duran 4 segundos con tiempos de carga entre todas ellas... FATAL.

    Completed Game: 1/31/2020
    Played Game Time: 55 Hours

    Intro

    The long-running Dragon Ball franchise has delved into its first attempt into an Open World Action RPG which is a route many longtime fans have wanted for decades. Dragon Ball Z story has many retellings and this game follows in the same footsteps. While many anime games have a stigma of not being that great, can this game break the mold like Dragon Ball FighterZ?

    Story/World Building – 2/3

    I have never seen the Dragon Ball Z anime but this game does a good job retelling the story in a way that someone like me could still follow and enjoy. If you have never seen the anime, most would tell you to watch that instead but this is not a bad substitute if you don’t have the time. If you have seen the anime, you’re missing nothing in the story department. While it is told competently, there is a varying level of quality between cutscenes. Due to the overwhelming amount of DBZ games retelling the anime story, this might burn out fans wanting to pick this title up.

    Gameplay – 2/4

    Exploring the vast landscapes or fighting one of the many iconic villains from DBZ can be a lot of fun but there is a lot of fault with it. Fighting mechanics consist of an easy one to two-button press combo that looks flashy but can become repetitive especially when grinding for EXP if you want to max out all 7 playable characters. Most fights will not be difficult because characters automatically level up with the story making side quest pointless. Side quests are boring fetch quests with uninteresting stories and no voice acting. Other side activities like fishing and crafting are almost an afterthought and have little bearing on anything else in the game. There is fun to be had in the 40 to 50 hours you will spend in the game, but mix in the negative of the gameplay and a story you most likely have played though before, the game offers very little for a 2020 release.

    Technical/Performance – 2/3

    LOAD SCREENS! Load screens are a major issue in this game to the point that you will spend 1/3 of the game in just load screens. Graphics look nice some times and look a little dated in others. It’s pretty disappointing to see almost flawless looking cutscenes, and then static characters with little to no life right after. The soundtrack is pretty generic with most songs lifted straight from the anime but it gets the job done. It’s not the worst technical performance I have seen from a game but improving load times would help.

    Verdict

    Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is a game I want to like due to how much I got into the story and this game being my gateway into watching the Dragon Ball Super anime but there are quite a few flaws that show up in this RPG despite its potential. If you want to experience an Action RPG in the DBZ universe, this is still the best one (only because it's the only one) but I would wait for a price drop and for the game to be released with all DLC before making a purchase.    … Expand

    Great visuals, looks and feels as the tv series. Combat is simple but fun. Gets a bit repetitive specially the secundary missions which are just fetch quests without any purpose.

    I would recommend this game to fans of the anime but if you aren't a fan then id wait for a sale to purchase it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As it stands right now, the game feels as if it needed a lot more polishing and technical work, and just simply more time. Constant bugs, some that even make me reboot the game to continue plague the game right now, and it has some of the worst voice acting I've ever heard in a dragonball Z game. All the main voice actors do a great job, but then the delivery is off in a lot of scenes, or they just use the same recorded "Okay!" about 500 times. Voice lines repeat, play out of order, and there are some instances of brief scenes that had 0 audio.

    Some of the other voice actors (Android 17 especially) were just awful. Sounded like they were just reading a book out loud, instead of actually playing a character.

    Most of the issues I have with the game can be fixed though. The game itself is pretty fun, if not a little grindy (But a hell of a lot less grindy than most RPGs). I'd definitely recommend people wait to buy, after a few more patches maybe things will be improved.    … Expand

    DBZ: Kakarot.. should be DBZ Gohan. I basically played the whole game from Gohans POV not Goku's. Felt like I rebought the dbz DVD series and got to button mash. Include the extra movies at least or make the fighting more than smash smash smash Super end.

    I have been a big fan of the Dragon Ball series, ever since it started airing on a local station in my town in the early 90's. We have seen a lot of games come and go with this series. Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot may have been one of their more loftier goals. You can tell they put a lot of effort in to the game, but that doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement.

We have seen a lot of games come and go with this series. Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot may have been one of their more loftier goals. You can tell they put a lot of effort in to the game, but that doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement.

    The game has been touted as a semi-open world enviroment. And while it's true you can jump between area to area and fly around and stuff, there just isn't that much to actually do. The larger world is a mostly empty one, with nothing more than sweeping trails of "z-orbs" littering the landscape, waiting for you to pick them up. I am serious here, the amount of crap they want you to collect makes games like Mario 64 and Banjo Kazooie look tame. It's a waste of time and frustrating.

    Sure, you can go hunting and fishing and stuff, but it boils down to little more than a mini game, where even you worst efforts will likely be rewarded in some shape or form.

    Dinosaurs walk around, but you just blast them to pieces with energy attacks. There are monsters to fight, but based on what part of the series you are in, all of the enemies look the same. There's such a wide selection of characters to choose from and they end up just reusing the same crummy robot and solider sprites.

    There's supposed to be side quests you can do, but they are few and far between and almost all of them involves really shallow fetch quests. Most of these quests are not fun in any capacity.

    The controls aren't as bad as people say they are. I don't know why this was even a issue to begin with. People are just whiners.

    One of the biggest sins Kakarot has though would be the amount of censorship in the game. All the classic, violent, visceral moments of Dragon Ball Z have been either cut out completely or done so poorly you'd never be able to gues what's going on unless you had context from the anime. The bloody hole in Goku's chest? A burn mark. Guldo's head being cut off? Never happens. Frieza ripping that Namek's arm off? Nope. Frieza being cut to pieces? Both times it's done so poorly you couldn't tell that was being conveyed. Dr. Gero punching Yamcha through the chest? A black spot on his shirt.

    As far as stories go, Kakarot is likely to be the shortest, most censored of the story you'll ever get. Not to mention all the classic filler that people have come to love just being missing. Garlic Jr? Who the hell is that?    … Expand

    Kakarot is excellent in parts that were not shown in the anime and it adds a lot of context, now I can't imagine dbz without those Goku-Gohan father-son moments kakarot added in the begining of the game.

    But when it comes to showing dbz's main story and iconic moment from the show itself, outside of couple of awesome cutscenes, kakarot just fails to deliver any epicness or emotion that    Kakarot is excellent in parts that were not shown in the anime and it adds a lot of context, now I can't imagine dbz without those Goku-Gohan father-son moments kakarot added in the begining of the game.

    But when it comes to showing dbz's main story and iconic moment from the show itself, outside of couple of awesome cutscenes, kakarot just fails to deliver any epicness or emotion that anime gives.

    If we go saga by saga then saiyan saga is probably the best saga in terms of quality of content and delivery of this content. We see Goku-Gohan moments, we see growth of Gohan, we see that Piccolo was almost always around and he started to care about Gohan, we see what other fighters did before training with Kami and how Piccolo recognised their power. Nappa was a monster just like in the anime. Fight with Vegeta was done right. In short almost every key moment was done right. But other sagas were... BAD. Friezas saga gave no emotions anime game, Dodoria and Zarbon were scary in the anime, Ginyu Force was a real threat in the anime and none of that is in the game, iconic moments were all very poorly done, super saiyan was... I honestly don't even know how to express my disappointment. Cell/androids is my favorite saga in the anime, but in kakarot it's the worst saga, it's empty, SS2 Gohan is good, but before SS2 Gohan everything is so poorly done, iconic moments like introduction of Trunks, Androids, Tien blasting Cell, Final Flash, Goku vs Cell all of that was pretty much either rushed or skipped all together. Buu saga was boring until Vegito which was pretty much the end of the main story with only Kid Buu left to defeat. SS3 was skipped, majin Vegeta was not even a thing in this game.
    Kakarot is a story based game that can't tell the story.

    Other than main story and leveling up this game has no valuable content which really brings down the idea of even having an open world.    … Expand

    Prós :
    - Respeito ao material original (ex: assim como no anime shenlong evolui seus desejos a partir dos eventos ocorridos na história, talvez o único jogo de dbz que eu tenha visto isso, achei bem bacana)
    - Jogabilidade fácil e responsiva
    - World build (áreas semi abertas)
    - Trilha sonora (conseguiram pegar licença de algumas trilhas do anime)
    - Diversidade de personagens ao decorrer das sagas
    - Mini games (voar pra que? se posso dirigir um **** carro futurista)
    - Cutscenes (CyberConnect2 nunca falha nesse quesito)

    Contras
    - Sistema Rpg bem raso
    - Side quests interessantes pra quem busca mais sobre o universo e tbm pode-se encontrar referências ao clássico mas nada mt "memorável"
    - As batalhas de boss que o jogo possui são um ponto forte dele porém são escassas com a mais interessante sendo pra mim a do Cell

    Ps: pra quem busca um Rpg esse jogo pode trazer uma grande decepção, na minha opinião o marketing desse jogo deveria ter sido declarado como Ação/Aventura e não Rpg.

    - 7/10 Com toda certeza um dos melhores jogos da franquia até o momento, apesar de certa decepção por não corresponder minhas expectativas no quesito Rpg, é absolutamente inegável sua maestria como Adventure game com elementos de Rpg.    … Expand

Sidequests were repetitive and gave minimal rewards which in the end left me not even wanting to do them.

    As a retelling of the epic of what is dragon ball z this game provides a solid experience and also adds a bit more with the small tidbits and cool side information and interactions, you can have with the main as well as side cast through your exploration of the world and through the many sidequests. The game features some cool features, side games, and mechanics such as the fishing a car racing modes, having chi chi cook meals, being able to train at capsule corp as well as having Bulma build things for you with raw materials found in the world are features that dragon ball fans are sure to appreciate. The community board is also a fun mechanic implemented which gives you a bit of customization based on how you want to play the game, The cell shading art style of this game is drop-dead gorgeous and really brings life to some of the most intense, high octane moments in the game. The open-world aspect of this game is solid at best but has room for improvement.

The combos are repetitive, fights are repetitive, the only part you’re hoping to see is the mid-fight cutscenes after doing a move. Either way, apart from all that the game is beautiful. It is the story of Dragon Ball Z all the way. Nice little interactions with fan favorite characters, amazing places to visit in such an open world. But that’s all the game has to offer in all honesty. There is going to be dlc for the game in later dates but seeing the pattern of the base game, it will be a hard pass for me. If you can live with everything I listed, and enjoy the manga based story. Then you’ll have a great time playing this game, guaranteed.… Expand
