Luffy doing stealth missions?

Does showing up at the front door and screaming "[enemy name here] COME OUT!" count as stealth, can we just do that instead please?

Also why is Luffy guarding against bullets?

Observation haki is video game highlight vision (I don't know what game really did this first, but it looks like a really close copy of detective mode from the Batman Arkham games).

The only One Piece videogame I want would be a fighting game with lots of cool little character interactions, like the recent Dragonball one. Also Usopp would take ten times as much effort as any other character to win with.

Nah, stealth segments are fine with me but it shouldn't be Luffy doing them. Robin's an assassin! Using her unique powers for stealth takedowns would be fun!

This videogame's environments still look like they were made for another game before they decided to make this a One Piece game.

i would love a real full on marvel vs capcom esque one piece game because all the super weird fighting game mechanics that are normally in MvC games would fit like a glove with the OP universe. you can literally copy and paste magneto onto kidd, luffy as dhalsim with more rushdown and no projectiles, nami and ussopp as projectile characters. the possibilities are frigging ENDLESS. (blackbeard with a double damage system would be AMAZING)



edit: you can even have characters power up into their logia forms for a cost of bar, really go crazy and make luffy spend 2 for a snakeman or tankman powerup (but make them really insanely hard hitting with low frame full screen stretchy punches). spend one on ussopp and become sogeking, spend two and become godsopp etc, I've been dreaming about a OP fighting game forever

Yeah, the whole "stealth" part of the trailer really felt like Bandai Namco just discovered the Arkham games and decided to replicate stuff from those games, despite the Arkham series being practically over and done with. The only difference is that Observation Haki comes with a time slowdown effect in combat that sets it apart from Detective Vision (unless one of the Arkham games did include that as an unlockable upgrade and I'm forgetting that).

On the other hand, Usopp and Franky as the blacksmith/equipment shop makes perfect sense. Chopper is almost certainly going to be handling healing items and health upgrades, but I have no idea what Zoro and Brook will be covering. Combat training makes sense for Zoro, but Brook...doesn't exactly have a role that would translate to what World Seeker is going for with the rest of the crew.

the best kind of one piece game would be a combination of wind waker and spider-man. or like the black flag sailing stuff, which is great fun and has cool navel combat

Luffy can actually be kinda stealthy when necessary. Impel Down mostly comes to mind. (though he went loud pretty quick)

True but it shouldn't slow the enemies down. That is exactly what gear 2 should be for.

There is a difference between going faster and everything else going slower. And it involves having a way to traverse faster in an open world game.

Observation Haki as detective vision is great tho. Wonder what they'll do for conquerors?

It makes perfect sense, sure, but detective vision is an old and tired gameplay mechanic by now. The whole game looks super uninspired.

Luffy playing like Spider-Man makes a surprising amount of sense. Also wondering if Gum-Gum UFO means UFOs are a known thing in One Piece world. Probably.

Also, with December coming up, I realise the Straw Hats have the setting's Rudolph equivalent as their full time doctor, and wondering what a pirate Santa Claus would be like. Almost certainly awesome.

Ivankov seems to imply that he has a major secret on Crocodile, which the fandom has run with the fairly reasonable in contex theory that Crocodille is a transman. A particularly audaciously mad segment has concluded Crocodile is Luffy's mother.

It could also just be that Crocodile used to be a revolutionary/Is Dragon's brother or cousin/Ate the Sand Sand fruit in order to control a horrible bout if diarrhea he was having. :pram:

Also when Oda drew all the Shichibukai as kids Crocodile was very androgynous, and in the flaskback of Gold Roger getting executed Crocodile is only shown from the back.

It was that he got chumped by Whitebeard. That was the secret. It was really really obvious, One Piece fans couldn't pick up on literary subtleties to save their lives.

... got chumped by Whitebeard. who in his 70's was called the strongest man in the world. who punched an island and it exploded. who created tsunamis as an opening attack.

like, no poo poo, he got chumped by Whitebeard. I'm pretty sure everybody who fought Whitebeard save for Roger got chumped.

so that makes the secret into... that he fought Whitebeard. which... isn't much of a secret, since the very first thing Crocodile does when he sees him is try to attack him, in front of hundreds of witnesses. so that's a pretty poo poo secret he's got there.

The best theory I've seen is that it was a very disgraceful defeat. Crocodile didn't go down fighting, but instead begged for his life to get spared.
