I honeslty like the game but why does everyone that makes a DBZ based game say the same thing?
Because they are all built from the same 10 year old zeta source. People just find/replace "Goku" with "Mike" and claim its a 100% original game built from scratch.

Not sure if it was implied, but just in case it was, this game was made entirely from scratch. I know a lot of people try to say that, but I can assure you it's the truth with this one. Anything I didn't make/program is credited on the hub.
Also. There's a huge difference between taking inspiration from something, and basing it off of something. This is based off the original FR, which was literally loosely based off DBZ, so between the two it becomes simply inspired by DBZ.
I'm not trying to say there isn't any influence, I'm just saying it's not a fan-game, and it is genuinely original.

Anything I didn't make/program is credited on the hub.You only seem to credit music sources, and some random libraries. A variety of the graphics are not original, taken from RPG maker and/or other sources. The character creation process seems identical to every other Zeta, and the interface isn't far off. The buildings are clearly DBZ styled (if originally drawn at all), and I even saw an NPC that looked liked a Yamcha. Not sure about the base icon, I can maybe put more effort into investigating this later...

Yes! Yes I cannot believe it! This game has the biggest hater of all on our case! =D
I am freaking excited. Seriously. Falacy, please stop bashing the game. All you really do is sign on for quick seconds and leave; you have yet to play the actual game. This man put hard work into this game; I was there for nearly every step. I honestly don't care what you or anyone else on here will think about it. I know damn well the hardship he went through to make this game. Investigate all you want, think what you will, and believe what you can. Stop coming on the game from this point on; I will ban you on sight.

LOL thats what makes BYOND games fail. Admins that ban over anything.
Todd I really have nothing against this game but I'd repick your admins.

Immeasureable. Please don't worry about that. We've only banned one person in this entire week since release, and that person was attempting to impersonate me, acting horribly, refusing to work with us at all, and wouldn't play.
As for this ban thing, this is hardly anything, you can't really blame someone for reacting that way to such serious accusations from someone who does not even seem to have any intention of playing the game.
Anyway. Enough is enough with this. Our character creation and interface are basic, and could be a lot better, but they're also more or less BYOND defaults; which means a lot of games use them. It's something that should be improved, but I chose to put my time in more important features first.
Some graphics, like many games, may look similar to at least one other game or area but they're entirely original. I personally drew them all myself, so I know that for a fact.
Since we use our own forums, rather than the hub forums, and this posting area is becoming so problematic; I'm going to be deleting all comments.
I will also be locking it, if I am right to assume that is possible. I'll wait a few minutes so this might be read first, but keep that in mind if you intend to reply.

Frankly this all seems pointless. What is there to avail from ripping on someone elses game? The game is original. He's been working on it for over a year, and yeah, it's based off a game based off Dragon Ball Z. Games are for playing. Play it, like it or hate it, and go find another. Peace
