      It's mentioned somewhere (I think) that Olimar is the company's best employee

      during a conversation between Olimar and the rescue squad Colin mentions how Olimar is well known for his adventures which makes Olimar sad as he mentions his adventures are just him crashing and having to find the parts of his ship to get back home or going to pay off company debt. While not saying how many makes it sound like it's and in between somewhere

      The sheer number of highly skilled pilots that crashed in 4 suggests that it's not his fault, there is clearly an entity on the planet that causes any sufficiently large ship to crash land.

      I’m sort of a new fan, I started with hey Pikmin (sorry) and put it down after a while, but then I played 3 Deluxe and even though I haven’t finished it yet, I really like it, the exact same thing applies to 4, I have not finished it yet but it’s absolutely amazing
      I couldn’t be happier to see the series get more and more attention, because the 10 year wait made it seem like it was just one of those franchises that is memorialized as a character slot in smash bros (looking at you, Earthbound), and Nintendo should do more experimenting with stuff, I love Rhythm Heaven and I want that series to get attention, I think it would be nice for them to port Fever (the Wii one) to the switch, if not the switch then hopefully their next console, and then they see how well it sells and see if the series is needed for a new game
      that went off-topic, but I am so happy that Pikmin is finally getting the attention it’s always deserved, it may have been because the rest of the series were all on poor selling consoles, and most people only knew it from Smash Bros, but now people see it as a genuine game
      I’m going to be pissed if it isn’t nominated for GOTY

    The Koppaite castaways are actually hinted to be related to the Pikmin 3 captains in a family sense.
    Don has many brothers and sisters and had a former partner named Ducky, referencing Charlie's rubber duck.
    Yorke is a grandson of Dr. Drake, who is also Alph's grandfather.
    And it is mentioned that Nelle has a biologist in her family, likely being Brittany.

    Given that Louie is a criminal, I’m imagining if he doesn’t appear in a future game that he’ll be written out by there being a mention of him in jail.
    Hell maybe they could make a game of a bunch of criminals arrested for petty crimes having to survive after Louie hijacks the ship taking them to jail and working to rebuild the ship.

      TLDR: Basically I want play to play a combination of Subnautica and Pikmin.
      I personally want to play a Pikmin game as Louie in a survival game. Like I want to able to play a Pikmin game where the captain climbs plants and can parkour from plant to plant in order to avoid enemies which are too strong and fast for you to sprint past or attack with your current amount of pikmin. I want a tactical system where you have to choose to either eat or to give the corpse to pikmin to recover loses from the battle. It just seems neat and Louie has been shown to be a very capable person when it comes to survival.

I've done over 20 100 percent playthroughs in that time and in 50 hours I've only done 2 100 percent playthroughs of 4 and in those playthroughs I have concluded that this game really makes you feel like a PURPLE PIKMIN.

    Regarding the 3 Koppaite Castaways. Yorke is implied to Alph’s Eldest Brother seeing as he belongs of group of 14/15 siblings and mentioning Drake.
    As for whether 4 retcons the events of the trilogy it seems that way. The Planet Koppai is mentioned to be on the verge of a food crisis which would place Pikmin 4 before the events of 3 regardless of retcons and Olimar makes reference to the events of Pikmin 2, Hocotate Freight being in debt, as a dream and not history.

    If there is DLC, I hope it expounds on the mystery of what is causing everyone to crash land on the planet. Even the NPCs point out that something weird's going on, as there were a few really good pilots among the castaways (including Bernard of the Rescue Corps).
    Either that or it'll be a plot point for Pikmin 5.

    Easily my new favorite Pikmin title. I will say one thing, I absolutely agree with the design decision that enemies are no longer there once you defeat them. I found that to help me out so much with clearing the map haha. Though I think it would be cool if once you get 100%, when you enter the map they ask if you would like to repopulate it just for the grind for players who want that. But for me, I love emptying out the place just so I can focus on everything else.

    11:22 fun fact actually! The ice Pikmin I believe are closely related to the rock Pikmin, because the rock Pikmin are actually a type of parasitic Pikmin that takes over a rock, and the ice Pikmin are the exact same concept but with ice instead!

    I just met AntDude earlier today at the Indianapolis PopCon. I asked him if he was going to do a Pikmin 4 video and he said it was uploading soon. I didn't know it would be the same day. Thank you so much AntDude. I love the Pikmin games and had to get 4 when it came out. My only problem with the game is I'm pretty bad at the Dandori Battles. I've managed to get Gold in a few of them but I'm just not fast enough. I'm okay at the Dandori Challenges where you just have to collect everything and have gotten Platinum in pretty much all of them. I guess it's just the added stress of going up against another character that is bothering me. As for the Sage Leaf Trials, good god am I a mess. I managed to complete them but pretty much all Bronze with, I think 2 Silver. I really need to practice. I have managed to do a deathless run on the first 2 Pikmin games thanks to the Switch releases so I can hopefully get better at the newest game too. Sorry I started rambling there. It's just really cool that I met AntDude today.

      I haven't played Pikmin 2 in a long time, but one of the main things I remember is not liking the caves. This wasn't an issue with 4. Maybe because they generally had fewer sublevels (aside from the final one)? And the time-rewinding feature helped too, in case you screw up badly when you're deep in a cave.

    If you didn't know everybody that is a part of the Rescue Corps is named after dog breeds.
    The ship The SS Beagle is named after a Beagle.
    Shepherd is named after a German Shepherd.
    Colin is named after a Border Collies.
    Russ is a Jack Russiel Terrier.
    Dingo is just a Dingo (or maybe Dalmatian but I doubt that).
    Bernard is Saint Bernard,
    Yonny is the only one I'm iffy on but I think it's named after the Papillion.
    (Spoilers below)
    The description for the Ancient Sirehound hints at dogs and humans being connected to these strange small people and dog like things in space is also maybe an explanation for these names. I was never really interested in Pikmin lore before this game but with this kind of reboot I'm having a lot of fun trying to put it together.

  • @link5205
    @link5205 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    In Pikmin 4 the worlds are bigger and everything you can do is further apart making it so you overall spend more time walking ( or riding oatchi ) everywhere and almost 100 percent of the boss fights are either bossfights from older Pikmin games ( mostly from Pikmin 2 ) or a normal enemy but bigger, a bit more health and a twist !
    For reference for those who haven't played the older games every previous Pikmin game had way more new unique boss fights.
    VERY few of those in this game.
    If you're new to Pikmin that's unlikely to bother you however if you've played every Pikmin game in the way I have you'll definitely notice it.
    Yeah the underground segments having their own unique mechanics makes them more interesting and the game overall looks nicer than older Pikmin games however for me discovering a new kind of creature at the end of a cave that I gotta figure out how to fight in a unique way was a big part of the fun in Pikmin 2 and it feels almost completely missing for me in Pikmin 4.
    I also don't like how it feels like they rebooted the series...
    Pikmin used to take place in a post human earth and this game seems to imply that they're alive which isn't inherently flawed but man did I find the previous lore more interesting and I feel it added a tinge of sombreness to those games.
    Now it all just feels less potent to me.
    I also don't like the lock on system because it locks on to things I don't want it to lock on to.
    Its a problem in this game that never existed in any of the previous Pikmin games.
    I understand that you gotta do something new in a new entry in a series but I don't always feel like "new" means "better" ( I get a lot of you are fans of this game which isn't a problem. I don't have a problem with people who think differently. )
    As much as I like the Captain Olimar side story I'd have preferred they didn't do that, or the night time levels ( as satisfying as that attack you can do with glow Pikmin is ), or even two of the areas in the main game and instead made the rest of the games main areas more dense and/or have at least three or four more interesting and unique boss fights to find in those caves.
    I guess almost nobody agrees though it fine if you don't. This just really wasn't the Pikmin game for me and after how long it took it to come out...

  • @synax.x
    @synax.x 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I interpreted the story as an alternate ending to Pikmin 1. Instead of fixing his ship and returning home to find the company in debt in Pikmin 2, he fails to collect all the ship pieces leading to the bad ending of Pikmin 1 where he's turned into a leafling. Louie is sent to retrieve Olimar instead of delivering the golden pikpik carrots, so the company isn't in debt this time and Louie doesn't really know who Olimar is.
    It's also why I think that the Koppaites we see in Pikmin 4 are related to the captains in 3 but not the same characters: it's a different timeline where their stories didn't intersect. And, if I remember correctly, there's some dialogue that hints towards Koppai being on the brink of a food shortage, meaning it would have to take place before 3.
