It doesn’t get much bigger than One Piece. The long-running pirate adventure series, which boasts more than 1000 manga chapters and anime episodes, has only gotten more popular in the years since its 1997 debut. So I was excited to play through One Piece Odyssey when I tried the promising demo at PAX West earlier this year. It seemed to have everything a fan would want in an RPG, including intuitive combat UI and an original story. But actually playing the game for more than a few hours revealed that it wasn’t all it was cracked up to be.
