Dragonball is a good theme for a game. So are DBZ games good or bad? If you like Dragonball Z then yes. The question should also say: Are Dragonball Z games Good or Bad? Are Zeta Rips good or bad?

To be honest. I'm sick of Zeta rips. It's the same damned thing everytime. People release their games, saying, OH NOT ZETA RIP PLZ PLZPLZPLZ TRY THIS GM FOR U. It's pathetic. The people who release these so called 'original dragonball games' mostly haven't even bothered to change the Zeta credits, let alone the mapping or modding the code. If you're going to make a Dragonball Z game make it from scratch. Try and make something different to Zeta. When I first started byond and played the original Zeta, yeah I enjoyed it. But the theme of DBZ has been spoiled by all the would-be.. no.. all the wannabe 'programmers' and thieves that have just literally, released someone elses work. That just sucks. I know how it feels as a programmer to go through all that time to make a game, just to have some idiot release it to the public when you bestowed them with your trust.

These rips? Have got to stop. They're not enjoyable to play, and give Dbz on BYOND a bad name.

Lately there has been much debute over DBZ games in byond. I personally think that there is no game in byond which could be classified as a fun DBZ Game.

Heres the question are DBZ games worth the time to make them and if so what would they need to be decent?

What a good DragonBall game on BYOND would need is for the creator of it to never hear the phrase ‘Do you want Zetas code to help you with your game?’

It’s basically all because of the trend of Zeta rips that discouraged BYONDers from the whole “DBZ issue”, lets look at BYOND before Zeta.. The vast majority of the DBZ Games were original, because Genesis rips were slowley beginning to fade away.

Are you saying at the time of DB: NN, you did not have fun playing that? Was that not a fun DBZ Game? How about Genesis when it started, wasn’t that fun? How about spar, wasn’t that fun? what about DBEO?? It’s because of Zeta everyone’s prospective of DBZ on BYOND has changed. And it’s brought chaos to the community. It honestly just needs to stop.

No matter how much you update Zeta, it's still going to be the same, old "marrrrr". Spar will reign supreme. If you really want to impress people, try making new base sprites, and new tiles for the game...

We've been re doing the entire game for the past 2 months or so. So yes, there will be new tiles and sprites. :)
