It pains me to leave a negative review because I LOVE Dragon Ball. But I wanted to make folks aware that this game doesn't precompile shaders, which is pretty much required nowadays for DirectX 12 games. They had this same issue with Sand Land, and that never got fixed. It seems they haven't learned.

This is enough to make the experience less than smooth for people who are sensitive to stutter (not everyone is). Every new attack, every new location, every change in camera angle = stutterfest. After you play for many hours to manually generate the shaders, it should become smoother. But that will only last until a game update or driver update.

For a game that cost $110 plus tax, that's just not going to work for me. Wanted to let others know so you can make informed decisions. Also, compared to Xenoverse 2, the controls just don't feel intuitive.
