Dragon Ball Fusions is fun in concept, however in execution is bad. For starters, the unique strategy based combat is very fun, launching your opponents across the battle field into your teammates to do as much damage as possible is fun. The idea of creating fusions of your favorite characters is great on paper. Dragon Ball Fusions has many many characters, that you will likely spend forever trying to get. The reason for this is because getting characters in this game is incredibly tedious; in order to recruit characters you must knock them out with a ZENKAI attack, and in order to do that you need to charge your meter during the battle. Combined with the fact that you will likely be highly overleveled, recruiting teammates takes forever, and what's worse is that the process for getting actual characters from the series is even more tedious. The game requires you to recruit a certain number of people before going to the next area, as the barriers can only be broken if you have enough energy, and to hold more energy you need more teammates. Fusion can only be done with specific characters and specific requirements must be met before you can fuse, meaning that is even more grinding to do. Some of the missions in the story mode are also just downright unfun, such as the Baby Hildegarn and Janembu missions. I genuinely wish this game was better, as the combat is so brilliant and fun, yet everything else about this game really fails.
