What do i do now? + some fanart

  • Hello to everyone reading this right now! I'm a very isolated and probably strange player who, after achieving his objectives, doesn't know what to do now.


    More context: I started playing in 2021 or so. I spent two weeks or more grinding, and after that, I got the info that DBO was shutting down. I got sad, left the game for a good amount of time, and got back after I saw the Revival project being developed.


    So after that, I got in the game again. Happily for me, I got a level 30 bundle, which made my life 10x easier. After that, I began my quest again: get Super Saiyan, some cool dogis, and finally, the underwear pet (that was all).


    The main reason why I got into the game was because of character creation LOL. I never actually liked the idea of staying hours and hours grinding for an MMORPG.


    After some long weekends of doing what i didn't wanted (aka grinding), I got enough money to buy the full set of the White Bunny Outfit (which I paid around 2 or 3 million for ;-;) and after gathering the Dragon Balls again, I got the pet, and there I was, finally "complete." But what do I do now?


    For most of the time when I played, I spent the whole day doing quests, killing mobs, and selling loot, which put me very far away from the 'normal' player experience. What I mean by that is, most of the functions, events, and activities in the game that normally give you the urge to continue playing, I never did because they all seemed so boring. Here's my "I never did" list:


    • - I never engaged in PvP.
    • - I never stepped on that PvP platform in Karin Village.
    • - I never entered or created a guild.
    • - I never did crafting.
    • - I never entered a dungeon.
    • - I never did or watched a scramble event.
    • - I never did a boss event.


    I just re-installed the game today all because of nostalgia, loneliness, and maybe depressive nostalgia LOL. Anyway, what do you guys think I should do now, and what do you guys think of me?


    Here's some fan art of my character; I even designed an OC based on her. Good day to you all!

    Approved the thread.
  • Hey zCajuina!

    Welcome back, and thanks for sharing your experiences with DBO.

    For the most part, I would say you've had what I would call the 'normal' casual DBO player experience. Most casual players will do what you just described; they level up, get super saiyan, and their favourite dogi, and eventually end up quitting. Just floating by, but to me this type of play style you don't get too much out of DBO.


    DBO is one of those games where you get what you put in. While reading your post, it sounds like you want to take your journey to the next level. The reason why you're finding it boring is simple, you've essentially cut out the best part about playing an MMO and that playing with people, and socializing.


    My best advice, is to actively talk to people and put yourself out there. Join a guild (or make one) and keep staying dedicated. Find people who like you, are just starting out, or are at a similar skill level. When you grow with these people, that's the fun part of DBO. You also have to set goals in mind, for example to win budokai, (or even do what you put on your list).


    Also awesome drawings! Love them and great work!

    Good luck and hope you enjoy the game some more.

  • First of all...Happy new year LOL! So i did a couple of those things, i was just farming and a guy came up to me and offered some help in leveling up, and for the period of a week or less, he farmed XP in a dungeon and got me up to level 60, then 65, from there i took my time and grinded to 70. And here i'am!


    i learned that those little dragons were from titles so i tried a 1v1 with him just to get the "Novice Gladiator", so that's one off the list (i think)


    He also showed me the boss event and i did some and got a title. But after that that fealing of empty completion came again LOL. Nowdays i'm just farming DBs for no reason i think (i may have 3 or 4 sets or those things)


    We formed a guild and things but the other members like to fight, do PVP, grind their weapons to the highest value possible and things. But i still don't find that soo fun.


    Well i did some more things, and i'm grateful for being in the right Ch at the right time, or else i would be at lv 56 or something till this day. But i still don't think socializing is for me. I'm hopping that in 2.0, if verdant implements modding support, that spark for playing DBO rise up and shine again. But till then idk what else to do and have fun.

  • Game worth completing by questing, every map and dungeon, anything there is etc especially if you never done it before.
    Ofc if you get bored or time is the problem, well... Getting boosted by other players seems not so bad. You can re-do them later if ya want it maybe.
    (Cuz it might take months, years for someone or some classes to reach max lvl, get decent gear and do end-game content, and other stuff how to make zeni faster etc)

    You are not missing that much right now, atleast from personal point rn.
    Its not the peek game moment where everybody was playing and started fresh or new LVL cap , and everybody was active everywhere, now just eh...

    Eh, nice drawing btw, do whatever, get urself some drawing ideas from all kinds of dogis, and focus more on ya drawing so u can make zeni IRL from it. You can, i can see that.
