Review: Very fun installment to a wonderful franchise - I loved playing Pikmin 1-3. It's one of my favorite franchises. I played through Pikmin 3 twice - once on my own on the WiiU, and once on the Switch co-op with my boyfriend. We had an amazing time. When I learned Pikmin 4 was coming out, I was sad to hear it wasn't going to have that same option for multiplayer. It has been replaced with something similar to Super Mario Galaxy 2 where it's just a controller for someone else to hold and occasionally toss things at enemies. That said, I knew this when I purchased it and discussed it with my boyfriend. He was aware and has been playing his own games and admiring the game while I play it just fine. This is something that was pretty clearly advertised on Nintendo's site and other resources, so the barrage of 1 star reviews for this game *just* for that are super uncalled for. Especially because this is my new favorite game in the series. First, the game itself is absolutely GORGEOUS. I never imagined these kinds of textures could be on the switch. The title screen itself shows you a gorgeous preview of the landscapes you end up exploring and can be left on in the background as just a gorgeous slideshow. The locations you go to are more explicitly part of the earth and you really get the feeling of scale of yourself and the Pikmin compared to the world at large. Every area I arrived at I just marveled at how pretty and detailed everything was and enjoyed looking around as I ran around with my pikmin collecting treasures and building bridges. The gameplay itself has so many subtle quality of life changes that any new player might not notice, but for veterans of the series: -Pikmin who are collecting multiple items in a stack will stay at base once they know the pile will be empty when they get there (no need to worry about grabbing them before sundown!) -If Pikmin are building a bridge or other structure, they'll wait at the structure once they're done so you can grab them and continue exploring -Instead of having to find what pile works for what bridge, you make the materials from your own stash of "raw materials" so you always know if you'll be able to build it. -You can move your spaceship and onion's location in an area to several other "base" points so your pikmin don't have to trek the entire map for one treasure. -You can *rewind time* if you mess up or if your pikmin get stuck somewhere it's hard to find (and the game will actually offer this to you if you end the day with pikmin left behind!) This happened to me once and I was able to go back in time 4 minutes and prevent their deaths. But perhaps the greatest QOL update is in your new doglike friend, Oatchi. Oatchi, aside from being cute, is almost another captain on his own. You can train him to be stronger and do more things, such as: -Going and collecting any "idle" pikmin (I used this ALL THE TIME. I mapped it to a shortcut. His pikmin retrieval makes it so I can focus more on finishing tasks and less on checking my map for where that lost pikmin went!) This also made it so I almost never left pikmin behind. -Sniffing out basically anything you're hunting for (Looking for that last treasure on the overworld in an area? Can't find a cave entrance? Ask him to sniff it out and you can follow his trail right to where they are, even if they're hidden!) -Carries you and your pikmin around (even through water!!!) -Can help carry things (increasingly heavy things if you train him!) -Can help attack enemies that your pikmin may be weak to (especially helpful in dungeons where you're restricted to certain kinds of pikmin!) -Can be told to guard an area when you're in a defense mission! -Can ram into walls to knock down things teetering off the top of them! -And many more! Oatchi's AI and all the things he can do is probably why we don't have two player story co-op in Pikmin 4 and honestly? I'll take that trade. He is AMAZING and makes the game so much more fun. The game also introduced a little hub area before you head to explore every day! This little hub is simple but great for collecting sidequests, helping castaways, and even increasing your pikmin numbers before the day and timer starts. It's also where you can train Oatchi and buy upgrades from the lab. It's a brief stop every morning but always leaves you with something to do or upgrade for the upcoming day! Overall, Pikmin 4 is an AMAZING addition to the pikmin franchise and I hope we continue to get more going forward. The details and QOL changes here are extremely promising and I can't wait to see what we get next time. tl;dr: Pikmin 4 improves on previous games a TON and delivers a wonderful single-player experience for fans of previous pikmin games (Especially Pikmin 2!).
Review: Fun game! - Fun game. I haven't played since I was a kid and it hasn't changed a bit.
