Yeah, the only major "drawback" of the game for me is the multiplayer. I feel like they could have easily just had a second captain spawn in for Player 2. I won't go into the ins and outs of game balance and such unless you want me too, lol. But I think it would be fairly easy to balance that idea out for the game. And that's before you bring up the fact you can move the Onion and Ship, plus the pikmin limit. I think the only thing that would be hard to balance out is the Pikmin limitations. I don't really have a solution for that. I'm also hoping MIssion Mode comes back in some way. I would love it to be the same Collect Treasure and Defeat Enemies modes, but it returning in any form would be aweosme. If that's not in the game, that's another huge loss. I'm also hoping Bingo Battle will return, btu I'm not expecting it to. Dandori Battles seem to replace them. I think those two are different enough to have both, and I am going to be bummed if Bingo Battles don't return. But that's a more understandable decision. Maybe they could do it as DLC? Advertise it as a new style of Dandori or something
@@carnage0685 It makes for a lot more strategy. The maps are designed around that feature, among other things. With being able to move your base, it's very easy to swap out Pikmin if you need them. Not to mention the QoL feature of going in and out of caves. It makes gameplay more simple, in a good way. It's not overwhelming to have all 7 types on the field. It's easier to switch between them and manage overall. I think people are so quick to think this is a hard limitation (less Pikmin? This sucks! Bad game!!!), instead of looking at how that mechanic works with the deisgn of this game, which is different than previous entries. Theoretically, if we had another "Pikmin 3", and implemented the 3 Pikmin type limit, it would not work in that game. Because the maps are not desigend around that mechanic, and there's not other mechanics to work in tangent with that and balance everything out

i see but i still don't like it. I'm glad i can transfer my progress from the demo cause i don't see myself replaying 4 as much as the other ones. but it's still a very good game
@@LuckyOwI777 played it. at first the 3 type limit was okay, but once i started getting about 80-100 Pikmin, the three type limit REALLY started to show. I don't want 33 Purples, 33 Whites, and 34 Yellows. I just want 25 of them + 25 Blues. I don't need 33 Purples for anything. It would have been really nice if you could just upgrade to four, and that would be it. I feel like they got the number wrong.
The number 1 worst thing about the Piklopedia in my opinion is how easy it is to datamine it Edit: Please don't reply with spoilers! I really don't want spoiled and I'm sure others don't want to either
@@Zultzify oh its bad man i'm sorry. The final boss has been uncovered and has been going around. Thankfully most people are kind enough to add warnings when discussing it.
I mean, what? You have to go way out of your way to see the leaks…. So who cares if it’s data mined? Just don’t google “pikmin 4 data mine” nobody is forcing you to spoil it for yourself 🤣😅
the one thing i think is lacking in the piklopedia is the descriptions. i liked olimars more scientific approach to descroibing the creatures behaviors and patterns, i get kinda tired of the new guy just gushing over everything and calling every monster cute. im glad hes happy i guess but thats not very informative.
@@flipfloppy_they just absolutely nailed just about every aspect of this game, lol. Unlike Pikmin 3, the wait this time was actually worth it, maybe even and then some.
schnauz actually has some interesting lore, the mama doll head, empty vase, refreshing goo, and one other treasure that I can't remember the name of so just find it for yourself, describes how as a child, he was in a wealthy family, and got big presents, but even so he felt sort of empty, until he met his "love" then his wife? crush? girlfriend? well whoever his love was possibly drowned as described in the refreshing goo's dialogue. Its crazy how they gave such a minor character such deep lore...
One idea that I had for Pikmin S' piklopedia would be the ability to view pikmin. Glad to see that idea in 4! I also wanted to add a counter for collecting multiple identical treasures too
You mention how Schnauz and Dalmo reference dog names, but it got me thinking about the Rescue Corp’s names… Shepherd could reference German Shepherds Collin could reference Border Collies Russ could reference Jack Russel Terriers I’m only not sure about Kingsley
If we are able to read other characters info on the creatures and treasure. I think it be really cool if we can add our own entries. Most people would use it as a meme or “it’s just a” blank, though I think it be cool to expand our character in this way. Maybe your friends can receive your entries and the other way around.
Not directly related but in Pikmin 4 the new characters are named after dog breeds as you point out but in the recent direct's trailer we see a member of the Rescue Corps named Yonny and I can't figure out what dog breed his name's supposed to reference
@@LuckyOwI777 Collin is likely a reference to the Border Collie and Russ references the Jack Russell Terrier Edit: oops someone already said that, though Kingsly could reference several dog breeds with King in their name like the King Charles Spaniel or the Pekingese
@@AlmalexyaBlue Fair enough, I guess....just weird that half of them are just straight up dog breeds, and half of them are name that _could_ relate to dog breeds. Also, I love Papillons!!! How does the name Yonny reference that breed? Is that like a nickname for it or something?
SPOILERS FOR DATAMINED DEMO CONTENT Olimar and Louie will also have piklopedia entries, for enemies returning from pikmin 2 and 3 they will be the same as in those games piklopedias but will have new ones for the new and returning from pikmim 1
Not terribly surprising Given the Treasures and Piklopedia have the new characters name/icon listed with the entry, I figured instantly "yeah were getting multiple characters saying stuff here", since there'd be no reason to have that distinction otherwise
Ughhhhhhh, this game is so fucking good. It has pretty much anything and everything a Pikmin 2 fan could want, and even then some, because this also means we’ll get to see what Olimar and Louie think about the few enemies from Pikmin 1 that weren’t in 2, like the Progg and Puffstool. God, imagine Louie trying to eat the Smokey Progg, LOL!
I've been intrigued by Pikmin since I found out about it from the Melee Bulborb trophy but this is the first one I'm actually buying. Even the demo is amazing. Can't wait for release!
I think it would be pretty awesome if Pikmin 5 was an Openworld Pikmin, where you have to take your Pikmin away just before sunset and then get the glowing Pikmins and then repeat the sequence over and over again. But if you then want to change the area, you can do that at any time, but the time of day remains the same
One thing I will say about Pikmin 4's Piklopedia is that it's very interactive. However...description/note-wise is the only thing it lacks for a better word. But we don't have the full picture yet until next week. But I do enjoy dropping bomb rocks on Scorchcakes. Especially the way it's death animation is like.
Forgot to mention that some items in the treasure examine mode are even interactive. Like the Gameboy. You can open and close the lid. It even sounds like it does irl, cuz i have the same colored one right next to me. Though the lid doesn't open up to how much it does irl which is pretty annoying.
yes i have the same Gameboy also!! i just had to hold it up to my tv and snap a picture of both of them. i know plastic textures are easier to do, but im not over how good the gameboy looks in the game!! such a pretty game :]
… One, two, three, uh … My baby don't mess around Because she loves me so And this I know fo sho (uh) But does she really wanna But can't stand to see me walk out the door? (Ah) Don't try to fight the feeling Because the thought alone is killin' me right now (uh) Thank God for Mom and Dad For sticking two together 'Cause we don't know how (c'mon)
only thing to dislike about the Piklopedia is that the only "info" you get is "this thing is cute", "it has so much charm", and "please don't kill the murder machine". you'd expect the crew members would make their own, actually interesting entries, but nope, not in the demo.
I decided to make a throwaway save to see if I could get the blue onion. I decided I would commit identity fraud on the piklopedia person, and you can become them EXACTLY
I have a question... Why I didn't get the piklopedia guy on my demo?!! Instead of him I got the flower guy, can someone clear this up for me? I'm so confused 😅
Not to be mean...but isn't it kind of obvious? If you don't have him, you didn't find and rescue him yet. You have the flower guy, becasue you found and rescued him. If you want the piklopedia guy, you have to find and rescue him. I don't know what cave he's in, but it should be easy to look up
I replayed the demo multiple times and I found out that the castaways are always unlocked in the same order. So no matter what cave you do first you will always find the scientist then the next castaway you find will always be Shnauz. Dalmo the piklopedia guy will always be the fifth castaway you find in regular caves or in other words you unlock the piklopedia guy as the last cave castaway in the demo.
If it wasnt for the ability to battle enemies, shock them, and use both types of bombrocks pikmin 4 piklopedia wouldent stand a chance. The piklopedia in Pikmin 2 is just so much more charming in its presentation.
Pikmin 2 is honestly among one of the best games ever created, just under titles like Metroid Prime. In terms of sequels it may just be the very best sequel ever created.
I like pikmin 2 just as the next person but that piklopidia( don't know how to spell it ) music is actually basic as hell...your digging into that " music " selection bit too much imo
