Yeah. Gamingcirlcjerk obsessed over it for months beyond its initial hype. It was another cash grab attaching a popular IP with a mediocre product to create buzz. The Mario Movie and One Piece Live Action also fall into this category.

Basically it coasted on advertising. People thought it's the next big thing because they saw it everywhere, not realising that thats because more money went into advertising than paying the devs to make a good game.

I never watched the anime or read the manga so please take this with a grain of salt but my family and I have enjoyed the first few episodes of live action One Piece. Its nothing phenomenal but its cute and fun

Found it a pretty decent adaptation. The actors seemed like they were having fun with the roles too

It looks like a generic game tbh, I'd almost mistake it for Ubisoft slop
