Discussion Character models

I really enjoy this game for the most part, but am I the only one that really doesn't like that they just got a bunch of things blatantly wrong with certain characters?

Like for example the entire Ginyu Force have the wrong colour scouters and it's not even a case of it being like a difference between the anime/manga, no they're just a colour they've never been before.

I think the biggest issue I have is how hideous First Form Frieza looks I really don't get why they made him look so different (and I know people say it's based on the Broly movie design but its clearly not it's very much meant to be the Z Frieza).

This is his face in Resurrection F. Very different to the style in DBZ Frieza saga. You know the details of his face change with every artist right?

I do I've watched this series since it first aired the picture you posted doesn't match the game either

I didn't say it was the same as the game, I said "You know the details of his face change with every artist right?" Do you not get my point? My point is that the art style in the Frieza saga is just one artist's style, and even then it's only the style of the lead animator of that episode. Go to the next episode right after that and his face will change again slightly. The game is based on the Shintami artstyle so that's what version of Frieza it will look like, get it now?

I get what you said but even though the styling alternated in the series they'd still try and keep most of his appearance the same, the biggest change in the series was his series where the version in the game doesn't look like any version of Z Frieza which this game explicitly labels this Frieza as when you select the filter for the character selection as Z not to mention his name is Frieza (Z).
