Its a mess, are big characters cut or not? Is Big Mom included with playable characters a mistake or not?
I think itll take a while before we find out.
That just about all we can do.

@Joy:
Don’t get why you guys thought Mom wouldn’t be playable. Playing as a Yonko should be a big selling point. Kaido will also be playable
Because there has been no indication that she would be playable until now, and she doesnt really move like a playable character in the demo, add the speculation that giant bosses wont be playable with that.
She can't be much taller then PW3 Doflamingo, because that mofo was gigantic.
Pw3 doffy was the same size as wb, moria and kuma, ridiculous lol
This game looks pretty hype

I know, i posted it one page earlier. Western side of bandai have done similair errors before though, so im not fully convinced yet.
As long as we get Caesar and Crocodile I'm happy.
Here I was hoping they'd make the majority of the 'support' cast fully playable finally since they've got half finished movesets anyway in PW3, but instead we're getting characters axed…
..If Moria and Magellan get cut whilst we get all the Vinsmokes this is going to be a very disappointing entry for me personally. I'll take an arc villain over adding Sanji's entire biological family any day of the week. Especially lame since now Kaidou is added I can't fight him as Moria in a grudge match. Tsk. Waste of potential.
I take it we're building completely from the ground up instead of porting usable assets from PW3 then?

Q7:プレイアプルキャラクターはどれくらい参戦するのでしょうか?
平田 :明確な数はまだ言えをませんが、 シリースズ最大の参戦人数となります。 ただし、 原作追体験を強く意識しているので、 収録エピソードに沿ったキャラクターが参戦します。そのため,残念ながら過去作のキャラクターがすべて参戦するというわけではありません。
Q7:How many playable characters will participate?
Hirata: We can't say a clear number yet, but it will be the largest number of competitors in the series. However, since they are strongly aware of the original experience, characters in line with the recorded episodes will participate. Therefore, unfortunately, not all characters from past works will participate.
Q8: 参戦キャラクターも追体験を 意識したものになっていると。どんな新キャラクターが登場するか、気になるところです。
平田: いまお伝えできるものとしては、サンジ
の兄弟でジェルマ66のレイジュ、イチジ、ニ
ジ、ヨンジが、プレイアブルとして参戦します。
また、ルフィは戦闘中にギア4を発動すること
で、"弾む男"(バウンドマン) に変身できるとい
う新要素を盛り込みました。パウンドマンは、
ただの必殺技というわけではなく、空中アクシ
ョンに絡めたダイナミックな動きが出来るキャ
ラクターなので、変身してれ回る気持ちよさ
を味わえるようにしています。
鯉沼: 四皇"ビッグ・マム"などの巨大ボスも登 場し、従来の『海賊無双』とは異なるバトルも体験できます。 ビッグ・マムを含めた巨大ボスキャラクターの詳細については、 今後の情報でお伝えします。
Q8:The participating characters are also aware of the re-experience. I am worried about what new characters will appear?
Hirata: What I can tell you now is Sanji
The brothers of Germa 66 Reige, Ichiji, NiJi, Yongji will participate as a playable.Luffy must also activate Gear 4 during battle So you can transform yourself into a “bouncy man” Incorporated new elements. Boundman is not just a special move, it is Axis in the air ,A camera that can make dynamic movements Since it is a lactor, it feels good to be transformed So that you can experience it.
Kakinuma: Big bosses such as the Four Emperors “Big Mom” will also be able to enter and experience battles different from the traditional “Pirate Warriors”. Details of the giant boss characters including Big Mom will be announced in future information.
Q9: 操作感が変わっていると言いますと?
鯉沼 :じつは、本作では「ONE PIECE」という世界観のアクションゲームをより楽しんでもらうために、イチから操作性を見直しています。
Q10:『 無双]シリーズで操作方法を 根本から 変えるのは、かなり大胆な決断ですね。
鯉沼:「無双」シリーズは、アクションゲームが苦手な人でも簡単に遊べるという部分を前提として作っているのですが、『[海賊無双] に関しては、4作目でかつ海外でも売れるタイトル ということで、カッコイイアクションや、多少テクニカルな操作を盛り込んで、 操作性に深 み をもたせたかったのです。コンボが成功したときの気持ちよさは、過去作には ないものとなっており、シリーズの中 でも本作のアクションが、いちばん 手触りがいいと思っています。
平田 : ボタンの連打で敵をバシバシと倒していく 爽快感と操作のシンブルさは健在です。ですが、これまでと違って操作に深みが生まれたので、アクションゲームが得意な方は、操作していてカッコよくアクションをく り出せるようになっています。
Q9: How do you say that the feeling of operation has changed?
Kakinuma: In this work, in order to make the action game with a world view of “ONE PIECE” more enjoyable, the operability has been reviewed from the beginning.
Q10: Changing the operating method from the Musou series is a rather bold decision.
Kakinuma: The “Musou” series is based on the premise that even people who are not good at action games can easily play, but “[Pirate Musou] is the fourth title and a title that can be sold overseas. I wanted to add depth of operability by incorporating cool actions and some technical operations. The comfort when the combo is successful is something that hasn't been seen in previous works, and the action of this work is the best touch in the series.
Hirata: The exhilaration and thimble of operation that kills enemies with button hits are alive and well. However, since the depth of operation was born differently than before, those who are good at action games can operate and cool action.
creds to hanfoi
seems like big bosses are playable?
and no mention of magellan, and i think when they refer to past characters not making, i think they mean from the anime and not from pw3, like arlong, foxy, etc wont be playable.

This is set in Wano and it has Diez Drake. Count me in!
Carrot and Ichiji look fun to play as.
Aokiji/Kuzan playable
So this confirms it, the boxed maps are gone but we still keep the "conquer these areas". Good, I liked those side-objectives. And the destructible environments are cool.
But we lost starting combos with the Triangle, guess they were substituted with the jumping X combos. Shame, it was something PW had that other Musou don't. Also a bit disappointed that Carrot's sulong form is a cutscene and not a transformation like the Gears.
Also a bit disappointed that Carrot's sulong form is a cutscene and not a transformation like the Gears.
Yeah. This makes me worried that if Cavendish is playable, Hakuba will be a Finishing move too and not a transformation… :[
Aokiji gameplay and they made his moveset better-
the stages looks great, much less bland compared to before.
Im extremely hyped for this game, probably my nr 1 on my wishlist
If the story focuses on story telling magellan is bound to be a character
@LordEnel:
If the story focuses on story telling magellan is bound to be a character
I think he, along with Moria and Kuma will be turned into non playable giant boss characters, and Enel and skypea will be cut. :(

I swear to god if i ever become a millionaire im gonna be investing in these games and telling them what to do because they have no fcking idea, that last solo luffy game, lol what a fail
Honestly, I rather have them cutting the pre-skip strawhats and the east blue saga boss.
Agree, good idea, I wouldnt care if its TS strawhats in pre ts arcs tbh.
Pre ts strawhats sucked in pw3 anyway since they were made for pw1 that had different gameplay.
I think so, but different translation, the last translation was a bit bad.
more than 40 isnt much yeah, with pw3 roster + the newly announced characters we're at 42 already I believe..
Oh man, kind of sucks, i liked playing with all of them.
Didnt think Lucci would get cut since he appeared in dressrosa and reverie and was one of the main characters in stampede.
Yeah, i just re read. Its just hanfoi guessing, he has been making a big deal out of it on gamefaqs, he is by no means any translator or got any kind of information regarding the game. He knows just as much as we do, so discard that tweet from your mind.
It would be utterly retarded to remove enel.
If they remove:
Luccy
Crocodile
Enel
Ace
Magellan
The game would it feel empty IMO.
And i would love to see Jabra And Kaku as playable characters, just for have more Zoans…But now i see it's almost impossible XD
Wait, where did they confirm that? That tweet is just someone guessing.
Yeah, my mistake. Misread it.
Folks, y'all gotta stop assuming the most backwards decisions as facts.
You think they gonna remove the main antagonists of the arcs? Rob Lucci and Crocodile and the likes? In a roster wich contains a Garp with a made up moveset and you think they gotta start by cutting Lucci? There's a Shanks whose moveset consists of walking around and you think they gonna trim the roster by taking Crocodile out?
And nothing has been said about giant bosses being cut from the playable list. Big Mom is a giant boss and has been confirmed playable.
Let's all calm down and wait for more information.
It doesn't make sense to cut Sky Pie, y'all.
people are guessing left and right, like saying X character will definetely be cut and that Giant Bosses aren't playable, without any clue and using only speculation as base for it. chill, people.
from PW3, I could see they cutting down: Garp, Perona, Tashigui and Ivankov (even though I loved to play as the last two), mainly because they are not that huge of a deal in their appearances and aren't really needed (as playable characters) to tell the story.
I was kinda bummed to see all Germa 66 siblings being playable, but after watching the gameplay video of Ichiji I kinda liked what they did with them…and, from a game perspective, is probably the last chance to show these characters some love, so go for it. They might get some attention and fondness that Oda failed to deliver (to everyone of them but Reiju). Trying not to focus on the thought that they stole someone's spot for now, kkkkk.
This is the playable character of PW4 that I expect.
About 55 characters are excluded even if the characters are not heavy.

so deleted 7 characters and remain 48 characters

Sabo playable confirmed in Onepiece TV Anime 20th anniversery show. :)
Seems like its confirmed the story starts in Alabasta, although we did get contradicting information before that eastblue was in.
Then I'm even more confused about which characters are gonna get cut. None of the PW3 roster are from before Alabasta iirc.
Sabo gameplay-
Seems like its confirmed the story starts in Alabasta, although we did get contradicting information before that eastblue was in.
Where are you getting this?
Seems like its confirmed the story starts in Alabasta, although we did get contradicting information before that eastblue was in.
did you get that info from Gamefaqs board? I was a bit confused if they were talking about Bounty Hunter or PW4, but apparently a german youtuber said that the game was going to start at Alabasta.
which is CRAZY weird, because we got image from a painel hosted at TGS and they used an image of the Romance Dawn Arc.
For now, waiting for more infos.
Just to confuse things even further, on the official page for the game on Bandai Namco Ent. Europe's site, it quotes you start from the very beginning of the story.
Follow Luffy and the Straw Hats from the beginning as they make their journey through different islands and onwards in the hopes of finding the illustrious treasure - the One Piece. Play through some of the most extraordinary islands and environments in the ONE PIECE story and take on memorable foes.
the game was streamed from TGS today where they said itll cover the story from Alabasta to WCI, followed by Wano trailer, Sabo gameplay and the producer playing the demo.
Here's the stream with English narration
Here's the stream with English narration
I watched it this morning. Thanks for posting the link though, completely confusing with that statement…
oh, my! I still think it’s pretty weird to scrap all of East Blue. I would be so, so happy if they included previous arcs from the Alabasta Saga (Whiskey Peak, Little Garden, Drum), but if they are scraping all the “extras” scenarios, I believe we will play from Alabasta Island forward. Hopefully that’ll mean more Baroque Works characters included in the game (Zala, Mr 4, Miss Merry Christmas), and so on (Priests in Sky Pia; Foxy crew; more CP9 and even CP7 members; the Mysterious Four; more Marines; Supernovas; New Fishman Pirates with Van der Decken; Donflamingo Pirates; Big Mom Pirates and Beast Pirates).
I think im fine with them scrapping a few arcs if it means they will put even more effort into the featured arcs.
WCI And Wanod enviroment looks great, and they even have unique enemy soldiers, if every arc will get the same treatment im content.
I really hope that having all Vinsmoke siblings included means we will get more more supporting characters playable in each arc. Vivi and Me 2 would be great for Alabasta for example.
Listening to the narration, it seems that the person talking was just giving an example of the arcs you can experience.
Why would he say "From Alabasta to Whole Cake Island" when we already know Wano will be featured in the game?
He said " You can relive the real stories of One Piece. In this franchise, you can make actions on your own and experience the real story in Pirate Warriors 4, from Alabasta to Whole Cake Island."
yeah, thats one way to interpret it.
I would think Wano was excluded because it features an original story from the developers.
Here's an excerpt below from the Official European Bandai Namco Entertainment site for the game. This seems clear to me it will start from the beginning, and they were simply giving examples of the "episodes" that will be in the game.
[h=2]Key features[/h]
Whole More Story – Experience the ONE PIECE story from the beginning
Delicious Musou Action – Developed by KOEI TECMO GAMES, the masters of the musou action genre
Sweet Victory – Take on a large number of enemies in huge battles from memorable moments of the anime
Environmental Crumbs – Destroy buildings and other surrounding elements that get in your way to victory
Again, it looks like the story will in fact include East blue.
This game is reminding me of how weird it is that Toei keeps marketing Sanji's family. Except for Reiju, they're all assholes and they never exactly redeemed themselves either. That maid they beat is still on the floor of their castle for all we know. Are they popular at all?
That said, Sabo looks fun. I like how they're mixing is fire attacks to his pipe-based fighting style.
