It's a decent looking game with terrible controls for keyboard/mouse, so stick with controller. Seriously, the X axis movement is way slower than Y axis. Feels like this should be reversed when on keyboard/mouse. There are no actual configuration files to change this, outside of downloading 3rd party tools.

When you fight your first boss battle it teaches you about "Lock On", which is a hilarious way to say "Point the camera at the enemy, but doesn't actually lock the camera onto it." The only thing that locks on is Luffy. Very annoying and clunky to deal with.

This game seems to thrive off the fact that the open world looks nice, but it's so bland and does not respect your time. Run around and admire all the nothing there is to do, except smash some boxes and gather materials for reasons that I'm sure make sense later in the game. For real, though, the game does *not* respect your time. This is solidified by the fact that there are two skills that shouldn't even be skills:

1. Passive movement speed increase. Not a HUGE deal, but makes actually going around the generic open world nicer.

2. Open chests faster. By default, it takes about 5 seconds to open a chest. Just sitting there holding the button. This is a tiered skill, too, so you can dump even more of your hard earned SP (Not mine, I cheated infinite SP after getting bored, highly recommend) multiple times. It's not cheap.

There are some "fun" things, like I spotted Panda Man sitting on a rock off the coast somewhere northwest of the first town, but you can't interact with him or do anything. Observation Haki doesn't recognize him as a living entity, so just a fun little easter egg. There may be others, too, but I stopped playing after downing Smoker. Combat just wasn't that enjoyable.

Bosses are just giant health pools with some flashy effects, but the lack of a functioning lock-on and the small delay when processing actions makes it less fun. Dodging is a joke, btw, there aren't any i-frames and if you get hit while you're "invisible", you stop dodging, unless you perfect dodge. Which is a purchasable skill.

TL;DR
Very generic open world game that is one of the better One Piece games out there. Not exactly something to be proud of considering the quality of One Piece games is pretty abysmal. Buy it on discount, definitely not worth full price.

BTW, you can access your DLC clothes on the Thousand Sunny. Go up to the door at the front on the right of the grassy deck and press your interact button, then you'll get access to it. There's no prompt to do this, you just have to try it lmao.
