Just because I want to see Doto hit big number with the spirit bomb, I'm gonna say this: You can stack "Give me your energy" 3 times for a massive bomb - probably strong enough to actually one shot some fights.
Bruh it was LITERALLY in the command menu and he was just brushing past it when he was looking at the combos. Bro literally took "i'm a Yugioh player" to a greater heights man.
The cutscene fight with Goku vs Vegeta is a shot for shot, blow for blow replication of the anime fight, it's really impressive the attention to detail they gave this one cutscene in an early 2000's anime game
@@casghaiFr the pseudo open world with the lite RPG elements was so cool. Sad they removed the overworld, and a good chunk of the story missions in BT3.
Fun attention to detail is that if the character has a scouter than they can detect much faster compared to those who don't. That's why Vegeta with scouter was able to find Gohan easily but Great Ape Vegeta had to literally see Krillin to detect
Yeah they can auto detect eventually unless your an android in which they cant as androids dont have power levels and when a scouter character gets battle damage and loses their scouter they lose this ability (just look at their animation as they use rhe scouter in it)
Another detail, Hidden Energy is actually a move that makes your opponent lock-off if you're behind cover, but it drains all of your ki because, well, you can't be hidden with a super high ki charge.
I feel like the Namek Saga was what inspired Breakers. If you rewatch the series it’s the only part where weaker characters are running and hiding from stronger ones, while looking for the dragon balls and getting power ups.
I always thought it was the cell saga bc that’s what they first showed, the first trailer is all about cell trying to absorb people. Imo Cell fits the concept of the raider better than other villains so I always saw him as the og raider. Perhaps the part of looking for dragon balls is what was inspired by the namek saga
@@lucaslobo8002 Yeah, but no. Getting Civilians is the only part about the cell saga that is breakers related. Buu does it too in his saga, just eradicating humans. But on namek, the Z fighters and namekians (civilians) are actively running and hiding, sequestering the dragon balls, Gohan and Krillin, and Bulma are hiding in crevices, under water, running for their lives, Dende revives people, Guru and Nail are equivalent to Power Cubes. I said it already, rewatch the Sagas with Breakers in mind, and you’ll see what I mean.
That Goku vs vegeta cutscene was fire considering how long ago this was made. Please continue this series I am so invested since I never played the game myself
Hey during the fight with great ape vegeta as the earthlings you can see that there is a dragon ball on the ground. On some maps on missions if you destroy parts of the environment you can find dragon balls. At 18:37 if you pause you can see the dragon ball on the ground.
*Do "Give me your energy" x3 times and something special will happen when you perform the ultimate. Also; to win clashes, swirl the joysticks in a clockwise motion (Raditz minigame taught me this hard lesson). Don't panic when you do it, just breathe, open your palm over the sticks, place one finger over L3 and your 2nd middle finger over R3 (your other 1st middle finger and pinky will support), and let your hand complete the motion (it'll feel like you're stirring "smoothly" if done properly and you shouldn't hear clicks. If you're hearing clicking, you're going to possibly fail the motion (think street fighter swirling on crack). Failing the input also irl damages your controller, so that's fun.)~*
I forgot how detailed this game is. Character with scouters detect you though walls( unless they are damaged enough their scouter breaks or they ar fighting an android). Also "hidden energy" makes you opponent loose lock on if you are out their line of sight
Hey there doto! Love the series so here's a small help: spirit bomb can be charged 3 times before launching it, energy volleys are OP, you can block rush attacks by pressing triangle while blocking (kinda slow so time it right) and if you finish your usual combo with a triangle, they'll be locked off and you can use it to your advantage
This game was my first ever interaction with dragon ball and one of my first games ever when i was 5 years old. every line in that goku versus vegeta cutscene is the craziest nostalgia i have ever felt
When you were fighting garlic Jr. and mentioned vegeta going easy on the planet, all I could imagine was a smash cut to Nappa wreaking havoc across the area
Doto Little fun fact. You can’t hide against characters with scouters because they simply use it to find it no matter where you are. But if they are battle damaged they lose the scouter meaning it’s safe to hide
@@DotoDoyayou used hidden energy when you were using yajirobe. if you use it while hiding it makes your opponent lock off to you is similar to stealth mode. I learned about this From a RU-vidr called kaDazee he makes videos about details in dbz games.
@@brotbrotsen1100 all they had to do is write hide your energy and we would have realized lol. But i think it maybe have been translation error similar too Vegeta's galick gun being called garlic gun you can see it when great ape Vegeta use it in the video.
Fun fact: The reason Vegeta was seeing you through the mountains when you were fighting him with Gohan and not in the other fights is because he has a scouter in base, so he has an easier time locking onto you, but he loses it when transforming into the Great Ape, which is why you were able to hide from him so effectively
The Move „hidden energy“ removes all your KI if you use it while hiding behind a building or something the Enemy will lose track and scan the area to look for you
3 things: 1. At 17:55: if you end this combo with triangle you slam the enemy to the ground an he loses vision on you 2. Also at 17:55 if terrain is destoryed theres a chance of finding dragonballs which you can pick up (on the ground in the backround) 3. characters with scouters can lock in and see you through objects from anywhere
I wanna share two tips about Base Goku in this game (it's also applicable to BT3's Goku early for kaioken and Goku mid for spirit bomb) You can use the "give me your energy" skill up to 3 times, each time increasing the damage and the range of the spirit bomb (it takes two blast stocks to use one time and iirc Goku can have up to 7 [at least in bt3) Kaioken is your other Blast 1 skill and buffs all damage done while it's active, it gives an insane boost of damage to the Blast 2 Kaio Ken Attack
18:44 you can see a Dragon Ball in the background near a crater. I don't know if you know this but you can find Dragon Balls pretty fast and consistently if you destroy structures during fights and peek around.
So here's something I've only learned recently despite having played it as a kid. You can actually hold the Charge button (L2 on PS2) while beam clashing, which makes you add more strenght to your beam, at the cost of your ki. It's a BT2 exclusive feature and I think that's how you're meant to beat Hard CPUs in beam clashes. Oh and by the way, dragon balls can be found sometimes after destroying part of the environment. The tricky part is noticing the yellow indicator on your minimap that appears only after destroying certain background objects, and actually grabbing it before your opponent does.
Damn man, the attention to detail to recreate the Goku vs Vegeta ioening exchange bar for bar is incredible. I agreed with the masses saying this was the best story mode dbz games had to offer, but even I forgot about that.
Nothing excites me more then when he gets to Bardock, like bro he is my all-time fav dbz character and its so sick. BT2 is easily my fav dbz game ever it had everything idk. LOVING this playthough
Doto if you see this there are dragon balls hidden in the mountains whenever you fight so try to energy blast everything on the stage,if your lucky you'll find one maybe two dragon balls per stage ,you can even replay stories you've beaten to find dragon balls you've missed
Bro charged up the the Final Flash for 25 episodes in the anime and they still gave him no ki restore. Right after they released LF Super 17, too, who basically uninstalls your game the moment he catches a whiff of ki leaving your unit's position.
Just for reference, hidden energy does extra what it says. It hides your energy or basic, your opponent loses their lock on. You have to use it behind a rock or building.
Biggest shout out to Doto. I remembered that there were things about BT2 that were just better than BT3, but couldn't' recall exactly what, and yeah, stuff like the story mode and little animations with characters was it. They really gave a shit with it.
This video inspired me to play this game again. I can still remember combos just from muscle memory too even though its been 10 years since I've played it 😂
Some Vegeta bullcrap you can do, with a super saiyan version, of Vegeta in Tenkaichi 2: pick one that shoots the flurry of ki blasts for supers, start with a normal ki combo until the enemy deflects them, then instantly do the super ki blasts, when you fire the last shot, go super saiyan, fire the super ki blasts, when you fire the last one, revert to normal saiyan, rinse and repeat. Think you needed to assign equipment or accessory, w/e Tenkaichi 2 used, but you can basically just repeat until enemy dies.
Spirit bomb becomes stronger the more often you use "Share your energy" if I recall correctly. And yes, I played BT2 as a teen and I LOVED the storymode. Getting to super saiyan 1 was SO hype
HEY DOTO! Clashes in BT2 let you spend Ki to get an advantage. Just hold the charge button and you'll spend ki to make your clash stronger, but if you spend it all, you'll be tired afterwards. And, if an enemy is coming at you with a rush attack, press block, and then press triangle, and you'll do a SUPER GUARD, it'll let you block any attack at reduced damage at the cost of ki. It's REALLY cool, and honestly, BT2 has so many little mechanics like this that BT3 doesn't.
Watching Great Ape Vegeta rip Doto a new one makes me really excited to see his reaction to BT2's version Wrath of the Dragon. Hirudegarn was a nightmare to fight, to my memory, and on hard mode he'll definitely give Doto a 'fun' time
The cutscenes were one of the MANY reasons i love BT2 story mode, there are not many, but when they show up, they were awesome to watch 7:16 just for the record doto, he actually turns red here its just that your emulator is broken
The title alone ensures this is going to be an entertaining video. 1:00 - Look at how bald the bald guy is. Y’know… bald people tend to be bald. Nappa clearly took offense to that comment given how he started pulverising you from the word go. 2:16 - That “Oh god” cut out at the perfect time. Nappa really did take issue with your bald comments. 4:54 - That would have been ‘sick.’ I think the water may have effect Garlic Jr’s fall and that is why it didn’t land. The water has some odd effects on attacks and movements in this series. 7:46 - I had forgotten how good that cutscene was. It’s been a long time since I played BT2, what with BT3 having the superior gameplay. BT2’s story mode is still the best though. 11:32 - I was going to comment that same thing but here you go. An then you even make the Dragon Ball the Breakers comparison, which was going to replace my survival horror comment. You’re stealing all my comment here. 16:51 - You were him for two blinks; just needed a third to truly be him. 19:29 - What!? I didn’t think you could teleport when you weren’t locked on. That’s the CPU pulling out some busted tactics. 25:10 - Oh yeah, it’s Budokai Tenkaichi 3 that gives Kid Gohan the cooler Ultimate. Having your ultimate be a rush attack followed by Vegeta’s Technique is a bit of a let-down.
Hey doto really enjoyed the video you are always entertaining to watch, just a heads up going forward in this game both kid Gohan and Yajirobe have a move called hidden energy which when used behind a structure (rocks and buildings things of that nature) makes it so they can't be located/ detected by the enemy so they can hide better
You find dragon balls during battle by destroying any object (trees, buildings, cars) and there's a random chance of finding a ball (only 1 per battle) it will show an orange ping on the mini map
