I mean it’s been almost 20 years since I played Pikmin 2, so I’d have to replay it to see if I still feel the same way, but from playing the demo of 4 I’m thinking I do still like the dungeons. For me, I like that time stops (or I guess in the new one, it’s slowed way down?). I like to get as much done as I can in one go, limited only by my own survival skills, and hate the constant threat of “OHP HEY IT’S NIGHT TIME, STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND GET YOUR ASS TO CAMP!” that you get on the surface. I hate being rushed, it’s why I don’t like true RTS games like Starcraft. Pikmin 1 almost crossed that line, what with it rushing you to find all the treasures in a month or whatever. Almost makes me feel like I have to follow a guide, when I just want to go explore at my own pace instead.
But hey everyone’s different, I don’t think your opinion is invalid or anything, and i’m hoping you still enjoy 4!
My favorite version of this was in Runescape back 20 years or so ago. Someone would tell someone to try it to unlock a cheat panel or something, and then you’d see the other players’ character just disappear lol
He said a new F-Zero would cost a fortune in this day and age. And so they are probably hesitant to invest in one and then only sell like, a million or less copies.
Same haha. I do vaguely remember people looking like a much, much more toned down version of this, but yeah this shit was mostly relegated to Youtubers and Hot Topic models.
My first encounter with the word “arse” was when I played Conker’s Bad Fur Day on the N64 as a kid. I thought it was just a funny-sounding way to get around censors back then haha
