    I respect your opinion and appreciate that you have shared it here with us today.

    That being said oof, what’s not to love about Pikmin 2 dungeons. Turn off the clock and unplug the setting from reality a bit, sit down in front of a long line of floors full of enemies and treasures, big juicy boss fight at the end.

    That is Pikmin to me.

      Pikmin to me is planning how to get as many things as I can in the course of one in-game day, including growing more Pikmin. Instead the dungeons got rid of the time limits and the ability to shore up your forces after losses. Having to march further and further into repetitive floors of enemies full of insta-kills was not my idea of a good time.

        I am not denying that the ability to plant more Pikmin with enemy bodies in caves would be pretty sick.
