One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4!
One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 has finally landed, and it's time to find out whether or not he's bringing us closer to finding Van Pace?
One Piece is one of the most popular anime-manga in history. As a brand that started more than 20 years ago, and has gained a tight following of fans over the years, it's no surprise that quite a few games have also come out. Some were better, some less. Personally, I had the feeling that just as the Naruto brand has the Ultimate Ninja Storm series, so too did One Piece have the Pirate Warriors series. A flagship series of games accessible to the general public in the plot of the brand in a straightforward manner and not stretched like rubber.
Personally, I set out to play the previous game in the series - Pirate Warriros 3. The game made me enter the world of One Piece, and when I heard that a sequel was about to go on that would continue the plot and expand slightly from where the previous game stopped, I can tell that I was a little excited. I wanted to play some more about the familiar and beloved straw hat team.
The story
One Piece is known as one of the longest manga ever. The story started back in 1997 and continues to this day. The game, as expected, follows the manga plot and tells us the adventures of Mankey Di Luffy. A lovely young man who dreams of finding the great treasure that answers Van Pace's name and becoming the pirate king. Luffy recruits a team of pirates who together are called the "Straw Hats Team" (after the straw hat Shloffy wears) and together set out to find Van Pais.
In the game, the story mode remains the same as the previous game but with little change. While Pirate Warriors 3 started with the East Blue saga and continued until the end of the Dressesrosa saga, this time the story does begin with East Blue, but tells it in quick passages and the real story begins with the Alba saga. I suppose the creators of the game did so to allow the plot to move on to the whole cake island saga and give more of the story, but it did disappoint me that the first and most important saga in the story was told only by passages. Anyway the game manages to convey the overall story in a very flowing and clear way, allowing players to understand the whole brand story even if they have never read or seen One Piece.
The games
The gameplay is very similar to the gameplay of the previous title in the series, but with a few minor changes. For starters, I will note that the story is made up of episodes, which form the sagas of the story, with each episode consisting of several independent battles. In each battle you will control a different character from the variety of characters the game has to offer (and has plenty). The battle system stayed absolutely the same as the battle system that was in the previous game and in my opinion it is great. A winning horse does not change, and it is a good thing.
The main change to the game engine is the special attacks. If in the previous game you had to charge your energy to perform a particular attack, here you can perform various special attacks with the click of a button. To my taste this change is less good, but refreshing. In terms of the battles themselves there is no real change. You will enter the arena where there are loads of soldiers who will have to defeat them when the boss of the stage eventually arrives. If you defeat him, you will receive coins that will allow you to upgrade your characters.
But one of the upgrades that I personally, and the truth that a lot of One Piece fans have been waiting to see, is definitely a fourth chalk. Those who are familiar with One Piece's world know that chalk fourth is one of the strongest shape changes the brand has ever known. And the same strength can be felt in the game. This is one of the first games to show this ability, and it's just pure fun to use this transformation.
The graphics
I think that like any self-respecting anime game, One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 couldn't save the graphics either. And he does not save. Each character is designed exactly according to how it was designed based on the anime or manga. The stages of the game are built one by one according to the worlds of the series. So as soon as you enter a certain stage you can feel that you are in the One Piece world. Personally, I really like authentic games that try to resemble the original as much as possible, and this game never fails. The graphics are indeed spectacular and deserve the attention of the creators.
Conclusion
One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 is a huge game. Literally. Just as One Piece's anime and manga world is huge in size and surpasses any imagination, so does the game world. In the game you will meet all the familiar characters from the world of One Piece, and you will experience the story from the beginning of the East Blue saga to the end of the complete cake island saga. If you went to watch the anime, it might take you a few months to get to the current point. Personally, I think it is very good that you can tell such a long story in a game that you can finish it in about 20 hours. If you are a One Piece fan, this is definitely not a game you want to miss. Even if you have never touched on this brand because it felt too long or tedious, this game is a great way in my opinion to be exposed and get to know the huge and huge world of One Piece.
