Video summary

The video chronicles the creator's journey through the Legendary Pack 1 DLC of *Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2*, a story expansion widely regarded by the community as one of the game's finest additions. Before diving into this new content, the creator had already completed the original campaign and encountered various Original Characters, setting the stage for an in-depth exploration of the DLC's narrative. The storyline immediately establishes itself as high-quality, featuring extensive voice acting that surprises even the narrator early on. The plot revolves around a mysterious time rift in Kton City caused by Frieza, leading to a confrontation with Vegeta who has seemingly lost his pride and become susceptible to mind control. This setup introduces a significant emotional weight, particularly when Trunks is forced to fight against his own father, adding layers of complexity to the usual action-oriented gameplay. As the story progresses, the combat encounters become increasingly challenging and chaotic, culminating in a massive battle against an army of Janemba entities. The creator notes that this DLC pushes the boundaries of typical game content by introducing "movie time rifts" and scenarios that feel more cinematic than standard raids. A particularly memorable moment occurs when Future Gohan appears in Hell after dying during his fight with Android 17 and 18, a plot twist that deeply resonates with fans due to its tragic nature. The battle against the Super Janemba boss is described as intense, requiring the player to utilize every available mechanic, including stamina breaks and transformations like Super Saiyan 3, which the creator initially hesitated to use but eventually embraced for the fight. Despite the overwhelming odds and the sheer number of enemies, the narrative maintains a sense of urgency and stakes that elevates the experience above average DLC offerings. The climax of the DLC delivers one of the most famous cutscenes in the series' history, where the protagonist successfully prevents the creation of a timeline where Janemba never existed, effectively erasing the entire conflict from reality. This twist subverts expectations by revealing that their efforts to stop the villain actually contributed to the very event they were trying to prevent, leading to a poignant moment where Gohan accepts his fate and experiences non-existence rather than suffering in Hell. The creator expresses immense satisfaction with this conclusion, praising the writing for its depth and emotional impact. Ultimately, the DLC is hailed as an excellent addition that not only provides high-level gameplay challenges but also delivers a compelling story that justifies the recommended level 90 start and leaves players eager for more content from the upcoming *Xenoverse 3*.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3 [music] is getting closer and closer to its eventual release. And before that happens, I challenge myself to play through all of Xenoverse 2 for the first time. As of now, I'm past the original campaign. I've met the OC few. And now, after all of that, I've arrived at the Legendary Pack 1 DLC. A lot of players consider this to be one of the best story DLCs the game ever got. Today, I plan on finally finding out for myself. Ignore my belt, by the way. I I I don't know why it's doing that. Huh. Well, now looks like everyone's here. >> Always. Dude, it's always a good sign to have voice acting this early. This might be another quality DLC for Xenoverse. >> I don't think we have time to wait for him. >> I hate that F is already in Scream, bro. Already aura farming. >> It seems like another time rift has opened up [music] here in Kton City. >> Dude, the these have become a really big plague since F showed up. >> Hey, eyes on me. Try to focus, would you? Man, his invisibility power is probably one of the top five abilities in Dragon Ball. Let Let me guess. F again. Yeah, right on the money, bro. Right on the money. Is this going to be the story line behind every single Xenoverse 2 DLC from now on that it's just F's fault he opened a time rift and now we have to go do something. >> If you will make use of any energy generated from that, >> you you were so on board last DLC. [laughter] >> Why is he moving along like you know she got me dead to rights, bro? He hit the Drew Ski. But I'd like you to do what you can on your own for now. >> Okay. >> I'll have Trunks join you as soon as he's completed. >> F. Can you stop emoting at me? I'm trying to pay attention in class, man. Oh, he's gone. Sorry. What was that? I spaced out. >> YOU ARE NOT GOING TO SURVIVE THIS. >> AND WE'RE GETTING A HIGH quality DLC cutscene. >> None of your moves will work on me. >> Already, mate. Xenoverse 2 budget went up. Final explosion from Vegeta. Now then, who should be my next subject? >> I choose you. A come on, man. >> He chose the guy that was already strong. Bro, Vegeta was literally in the process of maybe killing himself to stop him. >> Experimentation. >> Let's try some more. >> I can't even be mad that it's another fentric story because I'm I'm just excited we're in the TP now. No, brother. That same trick not going to work this time. But G, come on, man. You just saw him get the power boost. Oh, hey, we got to keep the armor on, though. Yeah, I didn't think so. What? How? He's surprised he couldn't stop a god of destruction, bro. Couldn't even get his own armor off. And now he's Oh, bro, you can literally see his dead body over. No, not let me let me lock off, bro. I want to look at Vegeta, man. How do I There it is. Zero power. Level one. Nah, they did my guy dirty, bro. On the street interview. World star. Vegeta, tell me what it's like going up against God of Destruction. Don't post this [ __ ] All right, enough. Where Where's Topo actually at? Oh my god. Way I got here and he was mid getting thrown. Hey, it's nice to finally see the tournament of power stage though. Looking good, man. I've seen it in some of the raids we've done here on the channel, but man is it Oh, he tried to kill me. He tried to turn me into another Vegeta. I can see why it was a recommended 90 level to start this DLC. If only me and Guru got along like that. I have to just do it at level 85. Standard combo. Uh uh uh. Pop up. Slam him down. That's fine. I think I have enough bars. Right. Super Saiyan 3. I did change my No. Don't. Oh, please don't. Super Saiyan 3 is back on the table. After many, many comments last video. I I realized that maybe Super Vegeta isn't for my build. I mostly put it on cuz it was new. I had no idea it was going to get that reaction. Still, we're fully embracing the strike nature of our build right now. Super Mad Dance. No perfect guard. Okay, he gets to live this time. Let me just do a standard route here. Flip him. Hopefully, we get the full combo. He does have some stamina. We're going to warp down. Ah, dropped it again. Oh, but when when combos are in play, you know, me and Goku are always going to lock in. All right, Goku, how do we time this now? Jump in, Goku, jump in. There it is. Restand. Wait. View is cheating for Universe 11. Why is that? Not that guy. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. I I'll be over here. Yep. I have seen that move in enough fan-made raids to know you do not want to get hit by that. I'm good off all that. Sweep the leg. Favorite combo. Rush down. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Man, that does not take as much health as I would like. Oh yes, Vegeta, get up. Wow. >> Oh no, he the team's got auto rebalanced. It's the game is all over again. Oh, wait. But now we're getting a new Yes. Who do we get? Oh, come on. This bum employee, man. Always on his father, bro. Can we not get somebody that was actually here? Can we maybe get an ultimate Gohan, a Piccolo, somebody? Not this minimum wage, bro. like minimum wage time patroller that is literally just here because he's forced to be here, bro. He been employed for 20 years, not one raise. >> You never say anything like that. >> What? >> Honestly, so far this all seems extremely in character for Vegeta. >> My father will always be a proud Saiyan warrior. >> Okay, now he he does know his dad. >> Oh, my first dragon fist got blocked. Trunks, what was that? Come on, Trunks. God, always making me do I almost got him. Trunk, go fight somebody else. Go fight your dad, man. I don't know why Trunks left his dad to Goku. Oh, we're get we're getting actually lore justification. I'm glad to know Zeno signed off on this. [laughter] I love that in anime games sometimes, like even though like we're just doing a game made story, they still felt the need to tell the fans, "Oh, don't worry, bro. Like Zeno, yeah, he's so OP that he saw through it. You can't have Zeno not look cool." Oh no. Put that Put the final flash away, old man. If I had any key whatsoever, he would be done for. Full power charge. Only six full business days before I'm full key. But I always get there eventually. Let me get that. Come on. Just let me get that stamina, Vegeta. Oh no. Oh god, that hurt for no reason again. Oh no. Put Trunks down. He might be a He might be a bad employee, but he's still my best friend. In fact, he's my only friend. Dragon, come on, man. How did you just get your stamina? I'm I'm doing a dragon fist. I put this ultimate on for a reason. I'm I'm not going to not hit it. Quick little stamina break. Quick little stamina break. It's time. Dragon fist. Evasive. All right. All right. You know what? You got it, man. What can I say? It's a new build. I'm still learning the way all my skills work. You know, the stamina break routes, my key cancels. I'm basically learning the entire game still, but we're getting through this DLC regardless. But finally, he's dead. Okay, good. End of cut scene. Uh-oh. He's fighting it. Fight it, Vegeta. We need you back on our side to do the nothing you were doing before. >> Oh, royal blue on the scale. I'm >> bothered. If you think I'm that easy to control, then you're dumber than you look. >> Now, now that's a good upscale. Help me fight him. Get back, Trunks. He's mine. >> Oh, man. He has no idea what he's great. >> Only a loser abandons his pride. You've made a grave mistake giving me all of this energy. I won't lose to someone who thrown away his principles. >> Ah, see this time he's not killing himself. >> Bro, you did not think of Cabba, bro. Like, what was He's not a part of your family, Vegeta. Let him go. But he not, bro. There no way Cabba's that important. the family gala gun and kabas featured. Wow. I mean that dude that just one shot him. Damn. Oh, never mind, bro. The power of comb is insane. What? What the [ __ ] What the hell? Oh my god. He [laughter] snuck Vegeta. Come on, man. When the hell did we start following Fuse? Nah, we're run that f. Oh, you want to fight so bad? And of course, I'm carried over my health from the past fight. That's just great. I couldn't carry over my Super Saiyan form. Oh, you want to have some Trunks. Trunks, what are you? Trunks, how is he comboing both of us, man? Trunks, you got to Trunks, help me. Help me, man. Don't block next to me, bro. You're making me use capsules for this. Oh, this better be the last mission. If I have to restart from scratch, I'm going to be so mad. I should have brought health items. I knew what I was signing up for. I'm I'm just going to get out of it. No. No. Oh, thank you. Oh, I'm so thankful I didn't get hit again. He has so much stamina, man. He has so much stamina. Okay, we dodge it. Oh, that's a free stamina break into a dragon fist. Finally, it hits and does decent damage. Kind of. I I I I feel like it should do more, but I'll take what I can get. I'll let Trunks handle FW for now. I'm going to go back into Super Saiyan 3. Don't Pew. Stop. You don't do this. You don't want to see me in Super Saiyan 3. Let me get my full com. I was right, bro. Bro saw Super Saiyan 3 and ran. No, no, no, no. I need to deal with Jiren. Oh, wow. Jiren's not taking any damage. This is the highest health I've ever seen for a lore fight. I shouldn't have pissed. I should just let him stay on Goku. I'm not doing that. No. We have no idea what's going on, but our mission should still be the same. Go put a stop to him so there are no more. >> All right, just let us know cuz I'm I'm hiding from Jiren right now. Whoa. >> Hey there. Glad you could make it. You What are you up to now? >> Yeah, he's he's really pinching pennies now. Why are we in the filler saga >> with Janeva? >> This time rift is extra special. >> It's a movie time rift. Take a look. Goku's supposed to be here, but he's not. Let's have some fun, then. >> Oh, great. Just what you Nema needed. More evil potency. >> Oh, and since I've got this special power, it'd be a real shame not to try it out. >> [groaning] >> In the first one, [music] they made him like kind of like a hero villain. Not really a hero, but he was more just kind of ambivalent. But now he's really just against us. Two Jane. Wait, an army of Janemba. What am I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THIS? It's so over. Too many. I'm glad I'm glad this is funny to you. Xenoverse, dude. Bird turned into too many cooks of sicko. Oh, come on, man. Well, at least they're all at the same strength level of the singular Geneva. Nah, but for real, this is hilarious, bro. Thank you, Xenoverse, man. They made Janeva to Metal Cooler, dude. Hilarious. Icon, you're not You're not who you think you are. Let's go. Oh, he's warping. Oh. Oh, and now I'm getting jumped. Now I'm getting jumped. Geneva hive mine is crazy. We only need to kill five, though. We only need to kill five. I'm assuming Trunks is getting five. Pon's getting five. We've evened it out. All right, I'm about to be the first one with a score on the board. Okay, if I just KS it, it'll make it go way faster. Not a single one of them is low. That one's full health. Oh, stop with the evasives. And I'm getting double jumped. Why is only one Janemba on me and it's the one I haven't been fighting. Let me guess. Evasive. He's moving like he wants to hit an evasive. I can't hit this guy. I'm going Super Saiyan 3. Just enough time. Okay, good. We have the We have the No, we have the transformation. Let's just add up the damage. I have no stamina, [music] so let's not get caught. Oh, no combo. Okay, we're we're way out of range of that. And oh, perfect timing for you. Except I'm still not going to let you live. What do you want? Oh, wait. No, no, no. Hold on. Oh, he's hitting bird. KS. Chaos right now. Chaos right now. I got to just steal that kill. Oh, sorry, Trunks. This was actually my jin the whole time. Go find another one. Or Yeah. I mean, keep helping. As long as I get the KO. As long as I get the kill, I really do not care. A He should be in He should be in strike range. One, two. Yep. All right. Next. Oh, poor Pyon. 1 v3. All right. Somehow this is our lowest health janema target. Oh, great. Down to his last health bar. The evasives are killing me right now, man. Down to his last health bar. We don't have any key. So maybe what's a route that's good like when I have no key. I'm just going to try the mash X route. Maybe mash X ends in something I can do a super with. No, not really. Just one. Just one. Thank you. What? How did that drop? Oh no. What the hell? Where? I don't even know where that's hitting from. Oh no. Please just die. Okay, one more Janemba. How is this our lowest health? Bro, you guys aren't doing enough. Wait for it. Banish to continue the combo. Trip into skill. He does dodge it though. I can't I can't. He's slightly elevated. I can't hit him. Nice back turn by. No. There goes the last of my stamina. I guess as long as we kill it doesn't really matter though. He's He's just attacking everybody right now. Open that guard. Open that gu. He's timer stalling. Okay, dude. I'm going to hit him with a grab then. Block all you want. My grabs hit pretty different. No. Okay, that wasn't as bad as it could have been. Oh my god. Oh my god. I can't I can't kill him. I I've been chasing this Janemba for 40 hours. He's right there, man. He's right there. Vanish. Oh, how does it land? Okay. [laughter] Okay. We should have just mashed the whole time. >> Now, this is a problem. If they only had just one more person fighting alongside >> Is that what we're missing? >> Hey, someone's coming. This power. Could it be Goku's? >> Who we in? >> Hey, keep your head in the fight. They went that way. >> Yeah, but we're looking for [groaning] >> Who we thinking? Goku Gogeta already. Gohan. What? Future Gohan. Gohan. Trunks. What are you doing here, [music] bro? What are you doing here? You went to hell. You fought for your entire future against two androids, and when you die, they sent you to hell. That's a bit intense. I don't think you should have gone to hell for that. Why is Gohan in hell? [laughter] Well, now no few. Now I got to know what sin did you make Gohan commit, man. It couldn't be washed away with anything, bro. Bro, man, Gohan is too nice of a guy, man. Not even a hint of any like like he's not even mad he's in hell. I would have been so mad, man. It's not even that he's he's accepted it. He literally like he he just he knows that he's hellbound, man. Damn. This is sad. This is like go on 1 second after death. He's still confused. I'm not even thinking about What the [ __ ] is that? Super Janemba. Who the hell is this? Well, how long has he been here? I've been I've been fighting boring Janemba. Is [music] this what you guys have been dealing with? Well, not to sound like a broken record, but let me get that Super Saiyan 3 out. Yeah. Need the power boost a little bit. Take your stamina. Dragon fist. This better hurt, bro. If you're the Janemba jet. Oh, that's the damage I've been looking for in that stare down. Oh, wait. Trunks is spamming his ultimate. I pushed him out of it. You know what, Trunks? That was genuinely that first time I'm going to say this throughout the entire Xenoverse 2 story. That is genuinely my bad, Trunks. I failed you on that one. He's spitting out more Janembbas. Oh, just just more Oh, yeah. More evil means more health, right? How could I have forgotten? Oh, and he's hitting his ultimate on us. And everybody's everybody's gone. Wait, can I res? I've never been able to put that down, Janemba. >> Someone made their way through from the other side, >> bro. What? This situation's already bad enough. They better be on our side. It's Goku. Yes, he's made it. >> Wait, where am I? Is this hell? >> You see, this is what I thought Gohan would react like to get up to blue. Yes. This ain't your average DLC, man. We are far beyond that. We are far beyond the average DLC. We need more. You You're maxed, bro. [laughter] There's nothing left in the tank. If there was, the Androids wouldn't have made it. All right. the you you wouldn't be here right now if there was. So, we can only be thankful, honestly. Didn't get the guard break. He's going for an alt. Wow, that move is so ass. He does have a lot of We've been fighting this guy for like 40 minutes, man. Hey, dodge the first hit and get the guard break right now. Ah, I didn't get it. He's almost in yellow bar. Just lock in. We can bring him down. Oh, Pyon just back there dead, man. We're doing this for you, Pyon. And yes, even you, Trunks, get a piece. Come on now. Go on. Get in here. Father, son, and macchiato. I'm Vegeta's Cobb right now. Like, should I be in this family picture? Probably not. But I'm here. I'm relevant. Oh no. Yep. Vanished into that. Damn, that stamina break is crazy. I'm just going to wait this one out. Oh no. Whoa. He just hit the pyon to go on. Wait, Jane's done no damage to these guys. He He He actually is just a bot. Like, oh, finally. Okay. Apparently, there's still a million Janembas. >> Let's go, Gohan. Right. >> Oh, sick. Oh, yeah. Beat their Oh, [ __ ] >> He's still only using that one arm. We'll pretend he doesn't have the second good working one right there. [screaming] Dov2. >> Don't sleep on these guys. What? Dude, when did they start moving like this? And here it is. The most famous cutscene in all of Xenoverse. >> Come on, man. >> Who wrote Bro, his writing was so fire. Who was in the meeting room pitching this? >> No, Trunks is still acting. >> Incredible. You know that? Way better than I predicted. Thanks to you, my experiment was >> Oh, brother. We do not care, man. >> But but no, we prevented a change to history. >> Not really. >> Actually, you did the opposite. You beating Janemba helped make it happen, too. This right here is a world where Janemba never appeared. >> Okay, >> you're kidding, right? >> Is that really the craziest thing ever? That was a gym memb. >> This is not that high IQ of a play, bro. Like, who cares? >> I can't wait to [music] see how much energy I'll get my hands on this time. >> It's It's an unstoppable power. He He could just take guys from multiple different worlds. There's nothing we could have done. >> My job here is done for now, so I'm off to >> This is so fair, man. Go on. I know you didn't deserve hell, but now you have to experience non-existence. I'm sorry. >> You're not getting away. You no goodbye to go. Man, this sucks, man. I guess I got so caught up chasing Fu, I completely forgot. What do you forget? Why does Why do we not have voice acting? Where where did the budget go? That cut scene I to be fair, the cut scene was really good. I guess I won't harp on it. Hey, that's where I got to get my level 90 at. Shout out to to him, bro. Yo, Guru. Hey, my guy. Can I get hit with that level 90 special? Yes, bro. Go ahead. Give me a little Give me a little bit of Oh, there it is. That feels good. We earned that. Level 90, baby. I have no idea what comes after level 90, but I'm glad we got that done. And with that call from Guru, we are now level 90. The DLC was excellent. But real quick, let me go ahead and let me boost my I guess we'll get up to 80 health and we'll just crank the basic attacks, bro. Like, why not? Yeah, we could level up the strike supers, but let's get those basic attacks up there. So, that DLC was amazing. I mean, I I don't even think I need to tell you that. Like, we're we're only one in on these Purple Void DLCs. And if that is any measure of the quality, we are in for a crazy ride.
