Less pikimin at start = better puzzles, more options for "metroid vania" style design. It's not an arbitrary limitation, it's a designed one, and a clever one at that. I think Pikmin needed the shake up in the puzzle solving and exploration, because "make it more lethal" only goes so far.

On of the BEST new additions imo is making loose pikmin notice you in a slightly larger radius instead of direct touch.

@polymerwario

11 ай бұрын

It would be hell in older games because of how close the pikmin would disband at times but now it's more than welcome with the more effective disbanding

To me Pikmin 4 feels like an alternate timeline where Olimar either doesn’t have the 30 day limit, or isn’t aware of it. In Pikmin 1 when you get the interstellar radio, olimar says it can emit an SOS signal, but it doesn’t matter because he doesn’t have enough time remaining. In Pikmin 4 he obtains it and immediately sends out an SOS signal. Then it explicitly states a month passes before anyone answers, which would have depleted his life reserves and led to the bad ending in Pikmin 1. Seems to be asking “well, what if the radio did matter?”

You have NO idea how much I was hoping this would happen

the lock on in this game is mostly fine, however there was one case where i was trying to aim at a pool of water to throw my ice pikmin to get the blue onion back to base and they kept locking on to the spicy berry plant and it was very annoying.

Everyone’s putting so much stock into this being a reboot to the point where it’s got Shesez down on the game, but I really feel like once we play the full game it’ll just be another sequel and all this discussion will have been pointless. I feel like Olimar describing him discovering Pikmin and using them to collect his ship parts is just the game describing the concept of Pikmin to new players who have no clue what the game’s are about.

Amazing video - all my hopes and dreams would’ve come true if this was an Arlocast episode

Really adoring all of the accessibility changes, especially since outside of lock-on, you dont necessarily have to interact w/them. I'm so glad the rewind feature is there, for instance, but I dont think I'll ever find much use for it, and that's ok!! Just happy more will be able to latch onto the series this way.

I'll always appreciate this youtubers commitment to using a puppet as there mascot and being able to make it work.

32:00 About the origins of the rescue pup species, one of the nightly discussions that the crew shares in the demo reveals that the captain doesn't actually know where Oatchi's species originated from. My guess would be PNF-404, since Olimar found Moss there, but idk. Would be cool if you could find more.

I like that the flower bud only change color to the colors of pikmin you have in the field and I love that you can relocate your base. The dog feels a little bit to powerful though, you can upgrade it to a 100 carrying strength which is way to much, ramming into enemies seems super powerful aswell. Ice Pikmin seem super strong too. I hope the final version will have difficulty options. Did anyone look for all the Pikmin in the Olimar level? I loved doing that.

Proof that I desperately need a Nintendo New Roundup weekly podcast from Arlo and friends. I neeeeed it!

Loving the excitement for this game! Btw, did anyone else notice in the tablet their is an option/description of a “play as olimar” mode?

Let's go I'm happy been on a binge of pikmin videos

Arlo is my my favorite Muppet/Puppet Mascot also love how we have 3 big brains of pikmin content here talk about Scrogingers pikmin game finally being realised with two new types Ice pikmin and the Glowmin how you get the cave system back and your able to explore the landscape like never before and also the new night time exploration where you get to fight the very agressive enemies akin to a difficulty setting to Super Hard

I am excited for this game, and glad that the four games will be available on switch! Great commentary on this game from everyone and conversation! I am currently playing Pikmin 1 on switch then will play Pikmin 2, then so on until I have played all 4 on switch. This is a special series for sure!

Been waiting for this one, mate

I think that it is just another adventure for olimar post pikmin 3 because it still sounds like he has experience with the pikmin but is explaining his adventure in his log that he is going to send out.

And now its a series

I’m hoping the reboot is meant to recontextualize the franchise in the modern era rather than just retcon the entire story for the sake of newcomers.
