I've got OpenVPN running, and the NoIP DUC running, if I setup OpenVPN to use my current IP everything works well, can connect, and more importantly can access the Internet. If I configure it to use my DynDNS through NoIP then it allows my to connect, but I then have no access outside my local network. If I was just trying to access a server that would be fine, but obviously this is supposed to be a VPN.....

First thing I'd do is to make sure is that it's indeed an access and not a DNS problem. I.e. I'd try to reach something outside the local network via ping 8.8.8.8.

Sorry if that was obvious to you, but you didn't write that much....

I did all the regular network troubleshooting. OpenVPN just didn't want to work with my DDNS. Decided to go for wireguard, set it up with all the same settings and it worked right away.

Yeah, wireguard indeed a good way to avoid complications.
