Critic Reviews
- Neither stereoscopic 3D nor StreetPass support reveals this for what it is, another hastily put together port that doesn’t even take the time to address criticism directed at its origin. Which is a shame, as there are glimmers of potential that are never fully realised to deliver the handheld experience that One Piece’s fanbase has long deserved.
Alex Seedhouse · Feb 24, 2014 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - It would have been fine to integrate the storytelling in the play—of which there is absolutely none—and had a “meh” battle system, because that would bring this up a few notches. But instead, it’s little more than an interactive manga with some battles tossed into some of the most boring environments this side of Dragonball Evolution.
Kevin Schaller · Feb 19, 2014 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - Perhaps the truly hardcore fans may have some interest in adding this to their collection, but with dreadfully long and uninteresting cutscenes, repetitive combat and monotonous level design, as a newcomer to the series I was left with a bitter taste in my mouth, and I simply cannot recommend purchasing this game.
Jennifer Dingle · Feb 18, 2014 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - Romance Dawn is a game even an anime aficionado couldn’t love. Its systems are bare bones, and boring, unvoiced text conversations dominate most of the time you’ll spend with Luffy & Co. Turn back now.
Nick Pino · Feb 14, 2014 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - If the presentation wasn't so horrible, One Piece: Romance Dawn would be a decent way for a JRPG fan to spend an afternoon after they've exhausted their library of other more innovative titles. If you've always wondered what the fuss was with One Piece, you'd be better off watching the show or playing the fun, but flawed Pirate Warriors series.
Chris Carter · Feb 11, 2014 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - One Piece: Romance Dawn is a great idea that was poorly executed. While fans and newcomers will appreciate the story, the gameplay feels like an afterthought. It becomes bland after mere hours and starts to feel like you’re going through the motions. This is not the reaction you want in an RPG, especially a long one like Romance Dawn.
Grant E. Gaines · Feb 11, 2014 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - Frankly, it’s difficult to ascertain who would glean any semblance of enjoyment from One Piece Romance Dawn. Any ardent fan of the Straw Hat Pirates’ escapades will only find themselves angered by how little effort has gone into this tawdry misadventure, whereas this paragon of poor design will do nothing to bring new fans into the flock.
Robert Hughes · Dec 05, 2013 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - One Piece: Romance Dawn had the potential to be incredible. To cover nearly 500 episodes of an epic, action-packed series through an engaging RPG that lets you experience the tale of the Straw Hat pirates should be ripe ground for an amazing adventure. Instead, what Romance Dawn offers is a game that runs down a checklist of features of what makes an RPG but never goes above and beyond that bare minimum. It doesn’t make much effort to engage the player and hopes that the player’s prior experience with One Piece will justify playing it.
Brent Galietti · Feb 18, 2014 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - A straight-up port of the PSP RPG with no efforts taken to improve the experience, Romance Dawn is not a journey many One Piece fans will want to take
Matthew Diener · Feb 12, 2014 Reviewed on 3DSRead full review - La saga de Eiichiro Oda regresa por enésima vez a Nintendo 3DS con una readaptación de un juego para PSP que nunca llegó a nuestro territorio. Se trata de una aventura JRPG muy amena y extensa, si bien no es ni la más variada ni la más bella que jamás hemos disfrutado en esta consola. Los seguidores seguro que la encuentran muy sugerente, especialmente aquellos a los que les gusten los retos.
