    1. The "World"
    The world, while beautifully rendered is completely empty, no animals, no significant things to discover, mostly nothing. the only part that feels a bit more alive is steel city and even there it feels empty. you only have one kind of tree and one kind of grass spread around the map. but a lotta shiny things to collect. For an open world game this feels more like a tech demo with just some stuff rammed into it so its not completely bare. but not a thing worth exploring.

    2. the gameplay
    this is is weird to me. world seeker is some weird hybrid of a character action game and a stealth game. the game clearly is designed to be played a stealth. the enemy have detection zones, you have solid snake boxes in which you can hide to avoid detection, you have some stealth kill related powers. on the other hand, luffy feels like a character in a character action game, most of his moves are cool dmc like action moves and you feel like that how you want to play a OP game. ruffy isn't a ninja.
    also, i played on normal, there isn't really a reason to stealth. there's like 5 enemys on the map at once and i can very easily beat thos just by punching them. and if a core concept of the game is ignorable on the normal difficulty this feels like a failure. and if you say "but stupid critic, you can play on harder and then you need to stealth!" i say "but if i only need a feature of a game when i play on a harder difficulty, doesn't that sound like a badly put together game?"

    3. the story
    i was not able to care, its so convoluted and unnecessary. The crew is pretty irrelevant but you have that sweet new original character jeanne whos everywhere always and super enganging...

    4. the crafting system
    its bad. there stuff you can collect on maps, only glowing dots for everything though, no models no animations, just little sfx effects you can collect. bare bone like almost everything. with your sfx in hand you can now craft one kind of equip which gives you numerical boni to things. that's it. its so bare bone and boring.

    5. enemy design
    welp. except for the bosses which are the OP characters you love, even though very repetitive fights, the enemy's are mostly the same, with two major variants. they are boring to fight and work all the same. On that note, the gun shots are a **** to evade with no clear tell of when they are going to shoot which makes the game very unsatisfying.

    6. the travel system
    this is fun. except for the lazily limited options to hold on to and no option to bounce off of building sides, its just fun.

    overall this game is bad. it looks pretty if you look at it for less than 2 minutes but its empty, repetitive, lazy and just not engaging. the idea of a OP stealth game going through development and getting released without anyone saying its maybe not the best genre for this franchise is bizarre to me.

    i really like OP and i really wanted to like this game but i just cant.    … Expand

    Such a terrible game to the franchise like let's start by its a clunky asf game and the combat doesn't help it by far. Switching between haki was a dumb mechanic most of the time you can't even block enemies attacks cux you are so slow on the attacks making luffy useless. You can't hit enemies when they are on the ground cuz God mode amd it just ruins the immersion of you being luffySuch a terrible game to the franchise like let's start by its a clunky asf game and the combat doesn't help it by far.

    I just spent over 3 hours exploring...which is, you know, the entire point of the game, only to lose ALL of the progress I gained because I didn't manually save at any point. Why is autosaving not more prevalent in this game? In THIS day and age, losing over 3 hours of progress due to a poor game save mechanic is simply unacceptable.

    I had a great time exploring and unlocking new areas, but got in a fight with one machine gun pirate flunky who wasn't even labeled as a boss character, and he took my health from full to empty in about three seconds. Game over, progress lost. This character looked exactly the same to me as a regular fodder pirate that I steamrolled in two hits only seconds prior so, foolish me, I assumed it was the same fodder pirate and I'd steamroll him in the same way.

    I purchased numerous upgrades on the skill tree during this time frame. The game should've autosaved after each purchase. I unlocked several new areas on the map. The game should've autosaved upon entering each area. Hell the game should autosave after every treasure chest you open, because they're major collectables that can be a real chore to find.

    Nope. All gone. I had a horrible day at work before this and was looking forward to unwinding, and while I greatly enjoyed the game while I was playing it, turns out it was all for effing nothing. I'm so discouraged that I doubt I'll pick this game back up. If only there was a way to demand a refund from the PSN store. My review is a 1 because I paid $65 for this game and only played for 4 hours yesterday, plus the 3 hours today which don't count because they never actually happened! Definitely not worth it!    … Expand

    Was expecting an open world game where i can free roam and do whatever i want. also not a fan of one piece so i guess it's my fault. the game has or maybe had potential but it's just boring and unpolished. Heard Pirate Warriors 3 is better, buy it instead.

    Na minha opinião, o pior jogo de One Piece. É em mundo aberto, por um lado, isso é bom, porque te dá liberdade, por outro, é ruim, porque você não tem um automóvel para chegar aos destinos mais rápido, é que nem jogar um GTA e sem nenhum automóvel, e tu tens que apenas correr e correr, é horrível, na moral, tu tens que ficar ''voando'' que nem o homem aranha, porém, há soldados eNa minha opinião, o pior jogo de One Piece. É em mundo aberto, por um lado, isso é bom, porque te dá liberdade, por outro, é ruim, porque você não tem um automóvel para chegar aos destinos mais rápido, é que nem jogar um GTA e sem nenhum automóvel, e tu tens que apenas correr e correr, é horrível, na moral, tu tens que ficar ''voando'' que nem o homem aranha, porém, há soldados e marinheiros em cima dos prédios, que ficam atirando em você o tempo todo, e isso acaba sendo irritante na moral, você também pode se teletransportar, mas tem uma tela de carregamento... Há pouquíssimas pessoas para o tamanho do mapa e não há animais!! Na moral, não tem vida!! Só pode jogar com o Luffy, se quiser jogar com outras personagens, como o Zoro, Law e Sabo, tem que pagar, mas, diga-me, quem quer jogar apenas com o Luffy? Quem é que compra um jogo de Dragon Ball para jogar apenas com o Goku? Ou compra um jogo de Naruto para jogar apenas com o Naruto? O sistema de combate não é muito bom, na moral. Até a dublagem me deixou a desejar, as personagens praticamente só falam algo como ''Ah'', ''Eh'', 'Uh'', 'Ó'... A impressão que eu tenho é que a Bandai quis economizar com dublagem, deve pensar que os consumidores pulam as cutscenes, mas quando o consumidor vê que nem as cutscenes estão bem feitas, pensa: ''Nossa, que jogo mal feito, que jogo mais ''pão duro'', que jogo incompleto'', até o som me deixou a desejar, fica um silêncio... Nem pra ter pelo menos, uma trilha sonora... Nossa, na minha opinião, pelo menos, que jogo ruim, sério, 1ª vez que eu pedi reembolso por um jogo, eu até me esforcei para gostar, pensei: ''Não, com o tempo, eu devo gostar'', mas com o tempo, fui detestando cada vez mais, sinceramente. Sou fã de One Piece, já assisti 974 episódios, AMO One Piece, mas esse jogo... Na moral, tá péssimo! Não sei como tiveram coragem de lançar essa porcaria, na moral, se não me engano, levaram 4 anos para fazer esse jogo. Não sei como tem gente que gostou e até diz que amou essa porcaria, acho que nunca jogaram por exemplo, um Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, na moral, esse sim é um bom jogo de anime. Comprei esse jogo foi mais para experimentar, paguei R$26,29, mas não pagaria 250 nesse jogo nem ferrando. Não recomendo. Na minha opinião, o melhor jogo de One Piece é o Burning Blood.… Expand

    One Piece: World Seeker is lacking in so many areas. It may be lovely to look at, but an overall shallow and repetitive experience take away any semblance of joy fans are likely to find.

    Far from being a bad game, One Piece: World Seeker sticks to the fundamentals but never tries to transcend them. Devoid of originality, the title looks like a basic open world on which have been grafted characters from the manga. The title clearly lacks ideas to renew the gameplay, coupled with an overall lack of soul, the result crumbles against the competition.

    One Piece is an anime/manga franchise that deserves a game that would blow everyone's mind. That's why when you get a mediocre title, it hurts so bad. Enjoyable storyline, graphics and open world, simply were not enough to turn this disappointment into an experience worth a recommendation. But if you are not a demanding player, there are a few things you could still like here.
