#DRAGON BALL Z KAKAROT STORY ARCS FULL#
I’ll go into some more detail in the full review, but I think combat is definitely Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot’s strongest aspect. In fact, Kakarot actively punishes you harshly when you just mash attack mindlessly, since some enemies have attacks that can’t be interrupted and will stun you for what feels like an eternity if they hit. It’s shallow in the sense that there’s not much variance to your attacks, but there are a lot of smart systems in place that force you to always be on your toes and reactive to whatever your opponent is doing, which prevents it from ever becoming a mindless button-masher. Once I started to learn some of its intricacies, I learned to really love the combat. "How does the combat feel? From the previews and the trailers, it looked pretty shallow." - kirby_ate_wes on IGN.com Not to mention, the rewards for beating them aren’t that enticing either.īut when the plot picks up and you’re able to just narrow your focus on the main story of each arc, Kakarot really shines with fun combat and what is very likely the best retelling of Dragon Ball Z in video game form. There are a ton of mundane fetch quests, scavenger hunts, and “beat up these same three generic robots/saibamen/frieza force soldiers” combat missions that get very old, very quick. That said, it works much better as an arena fighter than an RPG, and the bits where you’re just flying around in the semi-open world looking for sidequests are not as strong as they could be. As of this moment, I am about 23 hours in and feel like I am just about 3/4s of the way through, so obviously I want to withhold my final judgment until after I beat it, but thus far I’ve been very much enjoying my time. Without mincing words: yes! I’m fairly confident saying that Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is, at the very least, a good, if a bit unpolished game. All right, let’s start broad to get some general impressions out of the way.
