** If the speculation that customizable items and in particular skills for created characters nearly all involve material from characters that will be in the game, then a snapshot of an OC with something akin to Cooler's final form could be proof that it is averted.

Added DiffLines:

* BaseBreaker: Beam struggles being officially debunked. Many people saw beam struggles as a ScrappyMechanic that only promoted button mashing, while many other Dragon Ball fans saw beam struggle as one of the best features to Dragon Ball games by Dimps.
** Just like in the previous Dragon Ball game, ''Battle Of Z'', there are no in game transformations and every character that has a different form, such as Freeza, Cell and Majin Buu, is a completely separate character with move-set and skill-set.
** Local 1 on 1 battles can only be fought on the World Tournament Stage

Added DiffLines:

* ScrappyMechanic: If you want to charge your own ki, ''you have to equip the skill to do it''. And the manual ki charging itself is fairly slow.
** Special and Ultimate attacks drains your Guard Energy, if you block them.
** The Super Saiyan transformation: It slowly drains your Ki, but it boost your abilities and it also lets you use Special Attacks and Ultimate Attacks for practically zero cost. Also your Ki won’t increase in this state and you fall back to base state, if you run out of Ki. It uses up an Ultimate slot, though, so you need to know, if you either want 2 Ultimate Attacks, one Super Saiyan state and one Ultimate Attack or 2 different Super Saiyan transformations.

* VisualEffectsOfAwesome: One thing that is universally agreed about the game, even from its detractors, is that the graphics are absolutely ''phenomenal''. Taken UpToEleven when its released that nothing about Xenoverse's visuals is pre-rendered, it's all in-game graphics.
* WinBackTheCrowd: A producer of Dimps acknowledged in a [[http://www.saiyanisland.com/2014/07/dragon-ball-xenoverse-under-development-for-over-2-5-years/ interview]] that the developers saw the mistakes and overall underwhelming nature of the previous Dragon Ball game, ''Battle Of Z'', and stated that Xenoverse was a way of making up for it and wanting the please fans again.
