The only games that is close to it was Dragon Ball Heroes, it has some original characters like Adult/GT Gotenks, Baby Janemba, Kid Buu absorbed Kibito Kai, and Super 17 absorbed Cell, but in terms of story, Dragon Ball Heroes story is still like a What-if story.
That is what we lack in Dragon Ball games. Same also like the upcoming Naruto Storm Revolution games where Masashi Kishimoto himself created Mecha-Naruto and also an origins story for Akatsuki, the life before the members has joined together. I give example like One Piece Unlimited series, pretty much each installment has an original characters and story. We need a total new characters, so that we can have a total new storyline exclusive in game. What-if is just an alternate twisted story of Dragon Ball we already seen with the same existing characters from Dragon Ball. What I'm saying is an Original story and Original characters.

Personally I'd want to see them to either of those or, as you said, invent a brand new story with brand new characters (may be optional for me) only for the games.Īnything is better than playing through the same story (you're better off watching it) we've all played or seen getting played through countless times already.ĭude, those are somewhat available at the dbz bt series on the what-if part.
I wish the game developers would travel the road of the Shin Budokai games some more, which either expanded greatly on certain events of the anime making it a new story mode all together (like the first one) or adapt a new variation on the lore of DBZ like they did in the second game with Majin Buu appearing in Trunks' future time-line. I like the characters, powers, story, fighting and universe but dear Lord, I've become weary of the games always re-telling the same story (mostly from Saiyan saga to Majin Buu saga + some movies every now and again) but with different graphics or slightly varying gameplay mechanics. I love Dragon Ball Z as it was the very first anime I've ever watched. A completely new original characters and story will be good for Dragon Ball games, so that we can have a new experience and fun playing it rather than just play the same story which we already and always know the outcome of it.
