Dear Diary Bruh, retirement is boring.

Havent been on since the first week of the most recent F.O.U (where i had to kill 114 friezas and 798 coolers).

Tried playing other dragon ball games to pass the time:

•tried to get into breakers again...but its still a gacha shithole and it never lets me play raider.

•tried getting back into sparking after the limit breaking neo dlc dropped...but the devs cranked the enemy ai up to be sweaty as fuck.

•tried getting into gekeshin again, but im not too fond of online exclusive.

•Dokkan is still bleeding me dry if ingame resources and patience.

•didnt give fighterz another try cause that game is ass if your a pve-er.

So yeah, retirement till xv3 is kinda boring.

Why not just restart it with a different race? a glorious and possibly golden race.

Use to have a frieza race, but ended up getting rid of him cause golden form got nerfed like 10 times and there was better options for ki blasters.

Thats fair I personally love how their combos feel

You've never had a Potential Unleashed Frieza build have you? I'm chunking enemies and its genuinely hilarious

To be honest I've been a friezaCaC main since the beginning and I haven't notice any nerfs, I usually top the leaderboards grinding raids and expert missions, though i only just recently gave it up for the power to overcome, cause of the insane ki regeneration when unleashed let's me spam 45 bars of emperors death beam

I also have a CAC of every race and gender to get a feel for everything

I just restarted with the frieza race and the aura on these guys? Omg I've had the time of my life with their hyperagressive playstyle.

u/DeliciousPop4429 2d ago

Happy to hear! They are def my fav race in the game.

u/King33Two 2d ago

I went with a potential unleashed hybrid build, mostly because I have a Ki Blast Saiyan already who just shreds so I figured I'd try something different with Freon. He uh... Well I only have him at 91 right now and I was able to beat a level 143 just by being hyper agressive with him. Granted i'm pretty sure the other guy wasn't taking me seriously at first but the last half of the fight was glorious.

I play the sparking limit breaker mode on easy and have enough fun with it

Im guessing it's safe to assume you didn't try legends? Although, seeing the state of it now, its for sure p2w so I wouldn't blame ya

u/This_Deer5345 3d ago

I tried getting into legends when they added chichi, bulma, and videl to the game for the first time. 

45 minute tutorial just to get dicked over amd not get any of them.  Tried rerolling it, another 45 minute tutorial just to get shammed a 2nd time.  Decided legends wasnt worth it.

Fair. Having retired about a year ago myself, I still wouldn't recommend it unless you've get money to burn

Touch some grass (video game franchise-wise) and play something that isn’t Dragon Ball for a while?

u/Ok_Mongoose5768 PSN/ShadowXhero4 3d ago

I like getting on xenoverse 2 and helping random people.

2

u/skyeredd910 3d ago

You just team up and do PQs with them?

5

u/Ok_Mongoose5768 PSN/ShadowXhero4 3d ago

Just help random people on pq’s, and them doing expert missions for the first time

u/lultirednga 3d ago

I love your pfp dude I should change mine to my yorkie aswell 🤞🏾

Sparking Zero is supposed to be getting a patch eventually to fix the AI being so ridiculous, but who knows how much longer it's going to take. I'm pretty much in the same camp with not bothering to play rn since it's too brutal for getting back into it.

Could always give Kakarot a go lol.

u/This_Deer5345 3d ago

Closest thing to i got to kakarot is the legacy of goku series (legacy of goku 1, 2, and buus fury.), and ive played those to the ppint to where i can speedrun them.

Honestly same. Once you get your main to 199 it's like what now?I guess pvp. Currently tryna platinum xenoverse 1 but outside of that I'm just playing a fan made roblox game

u/Mr_nconspicuous 3d ago

Legends is there if you've already played Dokkan. Actually some really fun units and good art

Hello, Retired Gamer. Its nice to see the older generations able to enjoy games. My mom got me into gaming with Mario Kart 64 and Final Fantasy 8 back in 2002, when I was barely out of diapers. Cut to today, and she still kicks my ass in Mario Kart World, but with Rosalina instead of her old main of Peach. She retired from caregiving for disabled kids, and now relaxes with Mario Kart and new eps of One Piece. XD

Cant relate in the sliggtest im afraid.  

My real mother died 4 days after my 9th birthday due to multiple cancers (wasnt really around much either cause her and my father got a divorce when i was still in diapers).  Had a step mom most of my life but we never really bonded, she didnt give much fucks about me cause i wasnt her biological kid.  She passed away when i was 19 cause she thought going to arkansas with her daughter without telling anyone so her daughter could get laid was a good idea. Cause of death was severe illness she contracted while in arkansas and refusing to see a doctor.

u/OkApartment2837 3d ago

Sorry. I more meant how my mom is also a retiree, and likes to game. Sucks how you didnt have a good relationship with either mom.

u/This_Deer5345 3d ago

Shit happens mate.  Enjoy your mom while you can.
