I've seen a lot of positive feedback on this game from the One Piece fandom, and this is probably one of the more "mainstream" One Piece games out there, in the sense that this game was very heavily advertised in different showcases and stuff, so a lot of people who aren't One Piece fans checked this game out, which all makes it really unfortunate for me because this game is not great...

Honestly the more I think about it the worse it gets.
The game had potential, it borrows quite a bit from the Unlimited Cruise series which I like a lot, in that you can switch between different crew mates and control all of them, traverse different environments, and level your characters up to get more abilities and stuff.

However, this game feels very poorly made in comparison. Everything from the janky animations and visuals to the complete lack of rewarding exploration (the game downright discourages you from exploring), to how easy the game actually is, and the fact that switching between the characters doesn't serve much purpose, is just really bad...

The only thing the game does decently is the combat and even then it feels like there is a massive lack of polish in it.

I really wish I could like this game because I really wanted to, but just because I'm a fan of the series doesn't mean I will just enjoy anything that has the One Piece name on it.
