/v/ - Video Games

>>16242576

Because they're cash grabs made to get otaku money off of franchise popularity alone. If a dev wants to make an actually good game, they'd do something original so they wouldn't have to be constrained by some shonenshit's world rules and characters.

>>16242576

That's AAA to you? It's shovelware meant to cash in on manchildren.

>>16242576

God damn it, I was hoping for something like Prototype.

>>16242602

Nips obviously marketed it like it was meant to be an AAA game.

>>16242576

>Why is it that most nip games that are good tend to be games with western influence

What kind of bullshit am I reading here

Also the good One Piece games were the Musou ones and Unlimited Adventure/Cruise.

>>16242576

Musou games can be good, and the OPW were fun enough with a large amount of playable characters. I'll argue OPW2 was the hardest of the bunch.

>I said most dumb nigger, not all. Certainly more than anime games.

Comparing anime-licensed anime to some kind of vague criteria (what is "western influenced" ? in setting or art direction, etc?) sure shows a poor grasp of the topic

You sound like a retard.

Did you play the game?

It's was published by Bamco what did you honestly fucking expect?

How the fuck is one piss even going at this point? Are shonenfags really that big of a market?

Why the fuck do so many people care about this setting anyway? I know it has been around since the Big Bang or something like that, but it was not cheesy enough to retain the unintentional comical appeal of Dragon Ball, and I fully expected people would just sort of "grow out of it" a la Naruto.

>>16243042

>Are shonenfags really that big of a market?

Do you own the rock you live under or do you merely rent it?

>>16243086

I am actually clueless. Who is the market for this? Spics and niggers like DBZ?

>>16243092

>Who is the market for this?

If you mean the manga, the shonen manga's market is shonen. If you mean the video game, the game's market is fans of the shonen manga, which are primarily shonen. Though One Piece has been going so long that kids who became fans of it are now adults, and probably still reading it because they're desperate to know when and how it will finally end.

>>16243071

Apparently it's at like 70% of the story and hopefully once it gets to the ending the ending is so shitty like Bleach everyone forgets about it.

>>16243109

He's apparently had the ending planned out for years. I read a story that a terminally-ill kid's make-a-wish was to learn how One Piece ended, so Oda whispered it in his ear, and the kid took it to the grave. Bleach was just making shit up as it went along like Dragon Ball does but I believe One Piece has had a plan–not a great plan, not a rigid plan, not a very well-organized plan, but a plan nonetheless.

Regardless, after taking this long, there's going to be thousands of people yelling "That's it?"

No shit. It's Bamco and a licensed game.

Was this really worth making a thread about? Even the very first trailer already looked like absolute garbage. And then I watched the first gameplay trailer and it looked even worse, what were you expecting?

>>16243122

This, Pirate Warriors 4 and Dynasty Warriors Gundam 5 never ever.

>>16243256

Maybe I helped some retard anon not buy the game a day before release. I should be thanked.

>>16243274

If so then you had noble intentions. You're forgiven, Anon.

>>16242739

Bionic commando was actually good though.

There are no anime AAA games. They're AA at biggest.

>>16242852

>DmC dmc

Pretty sure a western studio handled that.

>>16243940

Because good games come from shitty franchises. It's the good franchises that produce the shitty games. Explains how Bleach has more good games than story arcs.

Yeah, if you skipped all the cutscenes and used the classic skin.

Licensed games are usually shit, Japan or the West. They are made to get more money from the hardcore fans.

>Why is it that most nip games that are good tend to be games with western influence

Thanks OP, had a good laugh

>>16243119

I used to believe this. But after the inclusion of haki as power level, I stopped believing it. He ran out of ideas of how to make luffy fight creatively so he basically gave him super saiyan and everyone else ki blasts.

>>16244078

How does banning even work anon? Its 2019 mate IP bans are fucking meaningless. I literally don't even KNOW if I have ever been banned.

Because anime games are always fucking garbage that rely on fanservice over good gameplay.

Are you seriously questioning why this is bad? One Piece fans are just as bad as Naruto or DBZ retards.

Anime should never have video game offspring. Anime does not lend itself to good vidya.

>>16248184

>One Piece is one of the most successful animu & mango series in Japan's history of entertainment

Correction, it's the most successful manga in Japan's history by far. Nothing comes close to it. People who uses the made up big 3 term don't realise that it's just one hug ass one and then there are other manga of smaller success.

>>16256234

>Watching the anime

The anime has been shit for YEARS, anon, this sin't new.

>>16256234

Anime has always been shit, not sure what you're surprised about it being shittier after timeskip. Manga is still good though, definitely feeling the stretch to end game now that the final boss has been introduced.

>>16256236

>for YEARS

It was fine until around after Thriller Bark, I would say anyway. The stuff during the archipelago and the Impel Down invasion up to the execution were pretty enjoyable as well, especially White Beard.

I really miss when the fights had actual consequences like with Luffy vs Lucci. Luffy has to pretty much go so far that he couldn't move a single muscle after he went all out and beyond. Now he just gets up after every smack he gets like with Doflamingo and Katakuri, it's super gay.

>>16256242

>Anime has always been shit, not sure what you're surprised about it being shittier after timeskip

They thought they improved it but all they did was give it that disgusting generic flavor of the month look most every anime has now.

>Manga is still good though

I'm going to have to disagree with that. Wano arc is so fucking shit and the arcs before that were also quite a chore to read for an absolutely unsatisfying climax with Katakuri/Big Mom.

>>16256246

>I'm going to have to disagree with that. Wano arc is so fucking shit and the arcs before that were also quite a chore to read for an absolutely unsatisfying climax with Katakuri/Big Mom.

Wano Arc is picking up right now but I agree the beginning was a drag. Mostly because this is the dreaded Japan-wank arc it's going to fucking shit itself at some point. What I'm really hoping for out of this arc is for one of the Strawhats to actually die to reintroduce tension in the series since there hasn't been a major casualty since Ace. It's unlikely but the arc building up Kaido like this feel like a real possibility to me. I will also agree that the Big Mom confrontation was underwhelming as well just reinforcing power difference, on the other hand, I like finally seeing the Strawhats just outright fail at taking down a big bad for once, hasn't happened since, again, Marineford. The failure would have carried more weight if somebody actually died in the process and I see this as the biggest failure of the Whole Cake Island Arc, being such an outright failure (except for Sanji retrieval) but no real consequences yet, that's why I hope Kaido/Big Mom/Strawhats leads to some major casualties, followed by a swoop in from Blackbeard to fuck up everything even worse. Have to hard disagree on the Katakuri confrontation though, his one on one with Luffy was very satisfying especially with him injuring himself. I really like his character and while the powercreep was real during the fight I can't knock it for how much I like Katakuri as a character.

>>16256294

>>16256246

I don't think Wano is that terrible, it felt to me like the beginning of the previous arcs. There's even time traveling

>>16256294

>What I'm really hoping for out of this arc is for one of the Strawhats to actually die

Highly doubt that, sadly. Though I have to say that Luffy got really cocky and somewhat careless after the 2 year skip.

I really thought that he'd be a little more protective even if he acknowledges that they've all grown, too.

If you remember when Zero was willing to lay down his life for his captain just like Sanji who was physically shaking but ready to do it, god that was well done.

But Luffy just keeps jumping into trouble and picking fights he doesn't even understand the gravity of.

Having faced Big Mom and gotten his arse kicked so much that even having teamed up with another Crew didn't work he's still super cocky. I was hoping Rayleigh would've beat some sense into him.

>I like Katakuri

I do as well. The guy is a good fighter and gave Luffy a run for his Berry, but the fight was still lacking to me.

Luffy just gets up after every heavy smack he received brushing it off. Remember when Lucci hit him a third time with that Impact Dial like attack? He almost passed the fuck out.

>>16256315

For my taste it has introduced too many both forgettable and uninteresting characters who I wouldn't lose any sleep over if they just died on the spot.

I barely gave a shit when Pedro died, but looking back he did have some time to grow on you, even if not that much.

He believe in the Straw Hats and gave up everything for their sake and Luffy still didn't manage to win, only to escape.

I would honest to god love to see Luffy get absolutely mad and sneak out at night and demolish some nearby forest in pure anger.

I need emotions from this little shit other than "WAHOOOO, LET'S FIGHT".

Just like during and after the execution of Ace.

>>16256319

>Luffy just gets up after every heavy smack he received brushing it off.

Again I don't like the powercreep during the fight and it lacked the gravity of earlier ones. I just can't dislike it because I like Katakuri too much that it didn't bother me as much as it should of. It wasn't an asshole confrontation like Lucci so it had a more mentor vibe to it which while asspully, barely did it for me.

>>16256331

>I need emotions from this little shit other than "WAHOOOO, LET'S FIGHT".

This is why I am hoping for an immediate members death just to give Luffy a proper wake up call for more somber moments, but the situation isn't as dire as you say. Luffy starving himself for food because Sanji left him was incredibly touching and unique to the character. He's certainly a touch too upbeat but he's not altogether pure positivity.

>For my taste it has introduced too many both forgettable and uninteresting characters who I wouldn't lose any sleep over if they just died on the spot.

I like the old man in prison but yeah, pretty lackluster for characters so far. That's why now that conflicts are escalating I hope we get some deeper insight.

>>16256374

>Luffy starving himself for food because Sanji left him was incredibly touching

I don't know, it feel a little cheap after he ate a shit ton of cookie dough fighting that one guy in the forest.

And knowing that Luffy is pretty much starving for food 24/7 didn't leave as much of an impact on me. Now the "fight" with Sanji and Luffy was pretty good, though. Forced to cut ties with them and him actually being serious when talking to Nami was a good touch.

I just feel that Oda has about 4-5 characters from the Crew he actually gives a shit about while others like Chopper have been degraded to permanent healslut when the time calls for it.

>>16242576

The only game based on an anime/manga I can think of that was alright was Attack on Titan 2.

>>16256805

>I don't know, it feel a little cheap after he ate a shit ton of cookie dough fighting that one guy in the forest.

He made the promise of starvation AFTER he defeated the cookie guy.

>>16257836

That's what I mean, he ought to have been filled to the brim with dough.

Unless his metabolism is so damn retarded fast which again makes it less of an impact on me.

Him not moving from the spot until Sanji returns was fine and dandy, but the starving was shoehorned in because it was Sanji specifically. He wouldn't have had the chance to eat anything because he was not going to move away from that spot to begin with.

>>16257900

He decided not to eat even after he was moved, though, and he was moved against his will. Even after starving he managed to give a pretty good fight, I loved that part tbh.

>>16248146

>Ofcourse the ending is planned

Nah, while Oda and his editors have stated that the ending has been planned. There are conflicting statements made throughout the years like how originally One Piece was supposed to run for 7 years, or that Oda (at least in the past) had an infrequent habit of adding plot elements and not realizing the full scope of them and needing to integrate them into the story. As was the case with choosing the 'shichibukai' title because it sounded cool and then realizing he's made 7 characters he needed to flesh out. Plus Oda has stated that he wrote arcs like Water 7 with barely any lead up.

One Piece is pretty obviously a series that wasn't completely planned out and it being stretched out because it's a money printer. We sat at 60% completion for what? 5 years? I think whatever ending Oda did originally conceive has been altered enough that it's no longer recognizable from it's first incarnation. And now One Piece exists to continue to line WSJ's pocket and keep it's parent company alive.

>>16258875

Most likely what you will see is that certain elements of the ending are planned, but the ending as a complete whole is not. Ah My Goddess! is the perfect example. I'm sure the specific details about the ending (who, what, where, when, why, how) were not made ahead of time, but one specific point - K1 had his sex drive magically suppressed so that he wouldn't bang Belldandy - was the central idea that would need to be revealed at the end. Once that was revealed, you could look back at the entire series and notice blatant references to this ending revelation scattered everywhere.

>>16259487

is one piece good at any point?

I skimmed through it and found some nice stuff but I want to know the best of the best, so i can watch the good parts of the anime

>>16248138

Haki shit in the enies lobby arc killed my interest in one piece, that and the merman shit post-timeskip, along with the timeskip.

>>16242576

This is like asking why games based on movies are shit. Are you retarded?

>>16259589

I remember the arc where they're in the jungle fighting the guy with the bubbles being really comfy.

>>16259508

> you could look back at the entire series and notice blatant references to this ending revelation scattered everywhere.

Can't say I finished Ah My Goddess!, but the problem I would have with claiming the ending was planned is assuming that the usual conventions of a long running rom-com series (nobody fucks, MC backpedals when things would progress the series) were just made a plot point and you could do that with a lot of other series in the genre.

I'd have to see an example of how the magical aspect of this was blatant rather than retroactively applied to typical writing.

The longest anime I ever watched was LotGH and it had zero filler.

Watching something for years and years with no end in sight just feels boring. I prefer binge watching something with a beginning and an end. But I suppose people like the social experience.

>>16259487

I got a one piece itch and want to scratch it

are the movies good?

>>16259814

Early movies are pretty garbage. Baron Omatsuri and the Secret Island is the best one mainly cause how different it feels and animation is pretty good. Newer movies are pretty much meh nothing really good nothing really bad.

>>16259728

I tend to throw the three in the same bag because of how terrible Unlimited World Red was. I do remember having fun with the previous ones.

Also, a game almost no one mentions is the Gigant Battle games in the DS which are basically fleshed Jump Super Stars but only with one pieces characters. And it looked pretty fucking nice.

>>16259834

I cried eith the Z movie Fuck you.

>>16259861

I read this as "Nami and Horsecock are the only good things to ever come out of One Piece".

>>16243294

>>16259434

>>16259487

Doesn't help that non mega-weebs / westerners won't really understand all the references. Even my normal-level weeb friends don't understand half the shit in there. Would have rather focused on Luffy being in the prison camp while the other Straw Hats do whatever, but wait, why does that sound familiar….

But yeah, the lack of tension reminds me of Fishman Island. The metric fuckton of Island-specific characters and side-stories reminds me of Dressrosa. I'm just going to look forward to Elbaf.

>>16259834

I was never a fan of the movies. All seemed to have some sort of glaring issue. If you do want to watch any, would recommend:

One Piece Film: Strong World

> Doesn't make sense in the timeline, but strong story. Enjoyable watch and Nami's swimsuit. Oh, its also a damsel in distress story. So if you have _one of those friends_, praise it to your heart's content.

One Piece Film: Z

> Consensus among fans is most wish that the villain was canon. Strong villain and great character development for the Marines. The doomsday weapon is a bit farfetched though and would likely change the entire story and dynamics of OP if were true. There is a scene leading into the final Luffy fight where Chopper is in center frame. He's looking directly at the camera and does some sort of transformation or attack that feels like little girl bait. It makes no sense whatsoever why they'd break the rising tension with that. Some Toei marketer probably thought that little girls get bored watching fighting characters in a Shonen film fight and demanded that be inserted.

One Piece Film: Gold

> More of eyecandy if you like Las Vegas theme. Complete plot asspull in the rising-action and climax. Friends and I rolled our eyes. Even the female friend said, "this is so stupid" when we watched together.

>>16259861

That’s not how you spell carrots.

>>16259589

The anime is dogshit, read the manga. But for best arcs I'd say, in no particular order. Sky Island, Marineford, Alabasta, the Prison Break and Water 7. Problem though, references will be made to things that happened hundreds of chapters ago you won't understand unless you read them at the time.

>>16258875

You confuse the journey for the destination. Yes a lot of waypoints have been added along the way but that's because Oda has made the perfect Shounenbait. He can add as many islands as he wants between Luffy and One Piece and it's fine because no one knows where One Piece is. This keans, in the event he dies, while rushed and probably shit, they can also take away as many islands as they want and expedite the plot. Sure, some minor details might need to be adjusted but the main idea of the ending should be executable no matter what. This isn't to say Oda doesn't dig himself into holes with sideplots but he's the best as at tying things together in the end as far as Shounenshit goes.

>>16259589

One piece is ultimately a shonen. There is nothing else to say. The only thing that sets it apart is length and popularity.

As someone who is anti social the "one trillion people are watching it they can't be wrong" argument is unconvincing. And as to its length consider all the good stories you could enjoy instead.

>>16260351

>>16260216

Personally but also objectively

Alabasta=Water 7 saga including enies lobby>Marineford>Prison Break>Sabody Saga>Skypeia>Start of One Piece and Chopper's arc (I lump it all in.)>Thriller Bark=Dressrosa the two ironically are complete opposites>Whole Cake Irrelevant>Fishmeme Island>Zou>Wano>Mini arcs like Reverie which are literally just filler and exposition.

>>16260135

>The doomsday weapon is a bit farfetched though and would likely change the entire story and dynamics of OP if were true

No one would be stupid enough or strong enough to try. Also, no one would have the technology to achieve it. Plus, I'm pretty sure the whole thing is a secret in the marine and the government exactly because it's dangerous.

No one would be able to pull it because ththey lacked one or several of those. Except Z for his background.
