Though i would not use Final fantasy or Suikoden as base, I could really picture something like this.

You might be able to go to any of the 4 blue seas and travel freely exploring different islands, but when you get to the grandline it gets a bit more restricted due to the chaotic nature of the sea; traveling freely will just get you lost... But you have the log pose and following it will lead you to the islands you need to go to continue the main story of the game. However one thing you would be able to find on your travels is the log poses to particular islands that you can travel to and explore... it would be a whole lot of filler, but the exploration is the idea of the game.

you go explore towns, talk to npcs and buy stuff and all that. Gameplay wise however, i don't think turn base goes well with one piece... instead I would say an adapted form of what they already use but create something more kingdom hearts related. basically stick to real time combat. You would probably have to pick one character at a time and stick with them

Though this would not be an easy game to make; the main storyline of one piece already provides a great deal game content and it could take a good deal of time to make all those extra islands. Might be simplier to ex-out the blue seas and just start of in the grandline... much less content to deal with. And the grandline is where the most interesting stuff is gonna happen anyway.

Eh, not sure how well that would work out. I mean one thing that would be difficult to work in would be the devil fruits given how vast and varied they are. Creating all the animations needed to cover... i mean we could be talking about 100 completely different fighting styles, all of which need to balanced and work into the game. Not to mention that the animations would have to work with customizable characters; really many of those devil fruits result in body manipulation.

Yeah, I'd an have to agree that an RPG-type game most likely wouldn't suit OP very well. A musou-style game like this, on the other hand, fits perfectly. Personally, I'd also be all for a side-scrolling action-platformer like the one that came out for GBA a few years back, but I sort of doubt that we'll be getting another of those anytime soon....

I dont know, every time I watch an episode of one piece I feel like im playing an RPG for some reason, which is why I like it...
It feels like a game like Suikoden, where you recruit members and stuff
"Ussop joined your crew!" - something like that! =)

but just like Slayer X,
It would be also cool if the battle gameplay was like Kingdom hearts.
Then after that, a gameplay of exploration where you find secret weapons and armors, your character levels up, talk to NPCs, and secret mission defeating secret bosses

I mean One Piece suits for a game like that since there are many strange creatures in One Piece like Dragons, Dinosaurs, Fighting Turtles, Sea Kings so many bosses to defeat

If we were to put One Piece in to an Rpg game, we should add filler items like Potions and stuff

Isn't Brook in the game? :confused:

^ I don't see a reason why Brook wouldn't be included in the game. They'll probably be showing some of his gameplay/moves soon enough.

I'm wondering if this game will have an english voice option when it comes to North America/Europe?

I'm talking about the official site, the site kind of releasing info, screen shots and character profiles bit by bit.

I sure Brook will show up soon in next update.

I'm more shock that Mr. 1 and Mr. 3 didn't show up.

You kind of expect that minor boss might not all make appearances, but those two also appears in ID as well and Mr. 3 even play a big role in Marineford.

I also hope that rest of CP9 made the cut, I really wanted to play as Kalifa or chapapa.




The problem is that OP doesn't mix well with generic random battles. But if you go with the Kingdom Heart or Zelda road, then multi-character/party system won't work every well in those setting. Try to combine the two, well so far no good games has being successful on than maybe FF13, but even that game's style doesn't mesh with OP very well.

Also the transition from island to island will be a problem. The only sea-based RPG I can remember, Suikoden 4 is by far the worse of the series and I even blame that game for basically killing the franchise.

Hopefully some villains will be playable. I'd love to wreak havoc at Marineford with my man Blackbeard :D.

well there is 2ch rumor circulating that boss will be playable at some point. probably as DLC

I don't see why the bad guys won't be playable. It's just waiting for the announcement.

I would say everyone that is annouced so far are playable which would means Croc, Bon Clay, Lucci, Wapol, Kaku, Jyabura, Don Krieg, Buggy and Lapahn.

As well as spoiler from JUMP with Ace, WB, and Hancock.


Besides that seems to be what Another Log mode is for.

Haven't seen any pictures yet, but from what I gathered from various sources is that the next SJ issue reveals Mr. 3, Magellan, Pacifista, and Aokiji as bosses (well, we kinda already knew about the last two being bosses from the early trailers....). Furthermore, there's a "Challenge Mode", which is basically a boss rush. Sounds pretty cool to me! :)

I don't foresee the Challenge Mode to be different from other Musou games. The usual Challenge Mode in a Musou games usually offer more sub-modes. In addition to boss rush, there should also be a time trial (on set stage), endurance (how many K.O. with one live bar), K.O. (how many K.O. in given time) and plus 1 or 2 other unique things.

These modes usually keeps the characters in their default states but with all their moves available and you can compare your score online.

They probably won't have ALL bosses playable, odds are they'll release some as DLC.... much like Mr. Heart for FotNS...

Koei, isn't usually about DLC characters. What they always do is expansion discs like Extreme Legend and Powerup Discs. I mean, the only game where they have DLC character I remember is Gundam Musou 3, and those are added characters, not character that was original available in the games.
