It's genuinely unbelievable how a 10-year wait for a Pikmin game was worth it. Literally every single complaint that anyone could ever have about Pikmin is addressed & fixed in some way or another, great accessibility options (from a gameplay standpoint). Oatchi's a great new way to have a second captain, and the limit of 3 Pikmin types was a really interesting way to balance the game. Although the music was pretty lacking outside of the main theme, the game's areas & sound design was great.
This game makes you think it's over like 5 times before you actually finish all the content. Most modern Nintendo games that aren't premiere releases usually suffer from a lack of content, but good lord this game has so much to do. A 2-part campaign with huge areas & tons of caves, extra post-game campaign, a tower defense mode with a load of levels, and lots of really tough challenges.
Overall, outstanding game. I really hope that over time, Pikmn 4 gets all the flowers it deserves. I'll die before I stop recommending this game.

Despite playing this daily for upwards of 60 hours total and being engaged the whole time, I didn't enjoy this game as much as I should've.
"There's too much to do" is an insane thing to say, especially for a $70 Switch game, but for me it's true for this game. I felt extremely overwhelmed by everything going on in this game. I way preferred the focus on exploration and discovery in Breath of the Wild rather than this game's focus on giving you a fuckton of tools and telling you to do whatever you want with them.
Hearing that I'd played the 2 best dungeons first, and Pikmin 4's release was what really killed my time with this game. I'll likely come back to it at some point soon like I did with BOTW, but for now I'll say TOTK is a very well-crafted but overwhelming experience.
