I won’t lie, I cried my ass off when the game was announced and cried some more listening to the menu music. That music KNOWS we’ve waited so long for this and is a “long time no see” that has never made me feel so sentimental and nostalgic in my life
its only upon watching you play this that i realized that the colors of *everything* relating to the rescue corps is tied to the color of space suit you chose. I chose orange, and all the suits of the rescue corps, my little spaceship, the big spaceship, and oatchi's collar were all orange, while for you, they're blue! i love that so much
This fact made me realize that the stylist, Puddle, is a being beyond time. If you change your spacesuit color, they don’t just change yours. They change the spacesuits of the whole rescue corp, oachi’s collar, the ships’ paintjobs, and also the Rescue Corps’s ID badge colors. They go back in time and change the color that Rescue Corps. represent themselves with to fit your preference.
This game is such a treat to play blind. The world is full of mystery and there is just so much to discover! You never know when you'll encounter your next Pikmin type, a new onion, an onion expansion, a new castaway, a new Dandori battle, a Dandori cave, just a regular cave, a new treasure, or a new entry to your Piklopedia! Not to mention, on top of the main overworld and many caves hidden about with missions and whatnot, there are the night expeditions that change the genre of the game into a tower defense game with multitasking elements! Not to mention the secret hidden mode at the end of the game that will surely please any fan of Pikmin 1!
hearing scruffy speak off script is such a perfect display of his passion and excitement! the way he pauses to come to the right words, and puts the perfect amount of personality into his narration. its!! idk its just very cute to me. 🥰 also why did pikmin fans not tell me olimar had such a deep voice???? hello??
Straight off the bat it honours all three games and their music design. The different games all have unique and amazing qualities and this game shows it all off before you even get past the tutorial.
The moment pikmin 4 was announced I immediately became super giddy for you to make multiple videos geeking out on the sound design. I’m now overjoyed that i get to watch you play it too!!
I just knew he would immediately comment on the cave opening 'pop!' and he sure did haha. It's a _very_ satisfying sound. Wonder if he'll keep mentioning them every time, because my brain sure did during my own playthrough!
I'd love to point out this is the first time someone has landed on this world on their first attempt, the inexperienced adventurer is the most capable pilot XD
Yo. A let's play from Scruffy? You are one of the reasons I got into this wonderful fandom. I love the way you do commentary, it's so calm and I felt just as joyful about every little thing in Pikmin 4.
Hearing you immediately call out the little motifs and sounds from the different pikmin games was so impressive to hear! Even if they were as small as sound effects! It's not too much of a surprise knowing you study sounds as a hobby/career, especially pikmin sounds.
29:47 I had the same feeling! The game just looks so highly detailed, the fact we can now look at this beutiful world at all angles just makes me so happy.
Only a few seconds in, and I can just feel your energy. It's so...calming? I don't know how to put it. It's hearing a person enjoying the moment with awe and passion. It's truly astonashing.
I am SOOOO excited to watch Scruffy play this, i didnt watch any other lets play so far since i knew he was doing this. I cant wait for him to make audio comparisons every 5 seconds its gonna be great!!!!!!!
yesss!!! I can't believe Scruffy is doing a let's play on Pikmin 4! one of my most favorite, digital artists/animators/3D modelers/programmers/musicians/sound designers/(other art forms) playing one of my favorite Nintendo series's long awaited sequel. I'm suprised to see a totally non-scripted video from this channel! it's such a pleasant surprise and I'm so excited to watch this series!
OH HELL YES. As someone who's played a bunch of Pikmin 4 and was reminded of my Pikmin (and gaming music) love by your channel, I'm very excited to hear your raw thoughts.
i know this is a month late, but i just recently got into the pikmin series a week ago through pikmin 4. it’s so amazing, especially the music. it’s fun watching others play pikmin 4 for the first time too! :D
Your voice is so smooth and beautiful. Your voice acting for every character is top-notch I swear! I'm loving just listening to you narrate the whole game, haha.
It's like I can hear the smile on your face with almost everything you say. It's so nice to hear just how giddy you are about all this. I love to hear how excited you are!
Pikmin graphics are actually so good despite Nintendo’s relatively lackluster graphical system. All I can wonder is what Pikmin would look like if it was on a high-powered more graphic-intensive system.
I simply adore your passion for this game, and their use of music and sound. I can hear just how moved you are by every thing you encounter and it brings me so much joy. Thank you Scruffy. I can't wait to watch you enjoy this beautiful masterpiece.
The sense of wonder you bring to everything is so infectious Scruffy. You bring so much joy to me with your videos and I’m sure I’m in the majority with that! You give a perspective on things that is like seeing a new world for the first time. Except it’s the same world that we’ve been experiencing already - it just seems to new and wondrous.
just checking out this series and even on episode 1 i can tell i'm in for a treat!!! glad to see you making stuff like this!!! and excited to see if you're gonna record another game like this in the future, i'd love to hear more live thoughts and reactions to games and how they use sound and music!!!
even after spending 50 hours within 4 days on beating pikmin 4, the sheer excitement and joy in your voice at the start of the video still manages to rekindle even more excitement than i already had over this game
I’m so happy to see Scruffy making his pikmin 4 playthrough a series!!! Looking forward to seeing his reactions to so many parts of this lovely fantastic game
4 in terms of game feel and improvements to previous features in the games, has the be the best out of the franchise. I honestly love the fact that they limit you to 3 Pikmin types, especially in caves because they can design the environment, hazards and puzzles with 3 Pikmin types in mind. (No spoilers) I 100% the entire base game but I know there is some side content and some post game secretes I haven’t found yet. But I enjoyed all the time I spent 100%ing the game!!!
What first drew me to your channel was the perfect mix of top-notch content quality, caring and thoughtful analysis, and the seemingly endless optimism you bring to each and every story. Of COURSE your Pikmin playthrough would have the same care! Hearing you get so excited for a game franchise that I’ve barely even SEEN before, much less played myself, has me legitimately excited for the rest of this series. Keep up the amazing work!!
I love the fact that you analize every detail about this game: visual, music, commands, old mechanics and lore, i almost finished the game but I am gonna still watch the serie👍🏻
so i have only ever played pikmin 1 and i didn't actually ever complete the game. but now that all 4 of them are on the switch i'll buy all of them and get to experience this franchise i've heard nothing but good things about and im really excited.
It’s so strange kind of hearing the real live tone of his voice outside of his more scripted content but it’s a much more welcome change for such a series :) I love your vids scruffy, and I always will be impressd
i really enjoy his respect for small details in this playthrough, some other youtubers ive watched have definitely been more attentive to details because of scruffy, especially with the dynamic music!
Scruffy, your content is so lovely and wholesome! I never thought I'd get to watch a let's play with live music analysis -- it's such a fantastic niche. I can't help but smile listening to your passionate and thoughtful commentary. Thank you for sharing this playthrough, and thank you for *all* the inspiring content you create!
"No one ever knows why the shipwrecks happen" Honestly, I've started quietly headcanoning that it's because of all the space junk that we, as humans, put into orbit over time. There's several tons of metal and stone surrounding our planet that's all built at human sizes, potentially crumbling into smaller chunks if it's far enough in the distant future, so it's easy to imagine tiny tiny spaceships would get banged up just for getting close.
As a collective community of fans that love your videos, we truly hope that you enjoy every inch of this game. You have helped people like me get into a series which seemed barren, and brought it new life with your videos. Thank you Scruffy. Truly, Thank you.
I love how he says "I think 30 minutes is the size for tis series", and then slowly creeps up, episode by episode, until a single episode is +2hrs long. Great Vids!
I'm genuinely just as excited to watch this as I was to get into it, myself. Avoiding spoilers was a tough battle, but it was all worth it! ^^ I'm especially ready to hear your insights as a more deep-delving Pikmin fan. I've always had an appreciation for the music and general beauty of the series, but you gave me a whole new level appreciation for the series, and I highly appreciate that!
im going through some rough times right now and this video is really making things feel a lot better, idk if this is too much information but its so nice
getting to watch you play reignites my excitement on a whole new level. i love that you take your time to admire all of the details that went into this work of art. so excited to watch the rest!
Its about to be a year since this video was released. Ive been watching this playlist most nights since it came out. I'm struggling to find happiness in the chaos of a life in poverty, but I'm thankful this series exists, it provides a free source of consistency which I can rely on. Thank you Scruffy. You did a really good job on the series, and your passion is an inspiration.
hey nice more long form content! I loved your pikmin 2 playthrough, I always wanted more like it. Your voice is very nice to just listen to for long periods of time
never watched a stream from you before but i LOVE it. when someones so genuinely into a series and takes time to point stuff out and get excited its awesome. (also ive watched 2 people play the demo now and didnt notice the scissor sound effect in the haircut menu.. definitely gonna take care to listen to that sound design now bc of you!)
I could hear the genuine happiness and excitement in the start
It’s so palpable hahahaha
So glad to see one of the 2 artists that carried the whole fandom on their backs for over 10 years finally playing the game they’ve waited for so long
cheers to that
Cheers, but who’s the other?
Arlo probably
I thought Sproutposting
He’s made like 5 videos about Pikmin what are you talking about
"Ooh... that's a clean... A Flat Major" got my laughing. Comimg from out of nowhere with the perfect pitch lol
He honestly sounds like he’s about to cry from happiness in the beginning, We’re all so glad the game is finally out after 10 years
I definitely cried at the title screen ♡
I cried
The words “Scruffy plays Pikmin 4” is a sentence made in heaven.
I won’t lie, I cried my ass off when the game was announced and cried some more listening to the menu music. That music KNOWS we’ve waited so long for this and is a “long time no see” that has never made me feel so sentimental and nostalgic in my life
its only upon watching you play this that i realized that the colors of *everything* relating to the rescue corps is tied to the color of space suit you chose. I chose orange, and all the suits of the rescue corps, my little spaceship, the big spaceship, and oatchi's collar were all orange, while for you, they're blue! i love that so much
Dont forget, the cave completion flag, its also color based!
Yeah it's really striking stop see it in another color (especially blue) when I also went for orange (since it's my favorite color :)
This fact made me realize that the stylist, Puddle, is a being beyond time. If you change your spacesuit color, they don’t just change yours. They change the spacesuits of the whole rescue corp, oachi’s collar, the ships’ paintjobs, and also the Rescue Corps’s ID badge colors.

they took the best parts of the other games and molded it all together
hearing scruffy speak off script is such a perfect display of his passion and excitement! the way he pauses to come to the right words, and puts the perfect amount of personality into his narration. its!!
idk its just very cute to me. 🥰
also why did pikmin fans not tell me olimar had such a deep voice???? hello??
Haha! yep.
He also has a super deep voice in Pikmin 3! I can't remember if/how much he talks in 1 & 2 or Hey! Pikmin
Straight off the bat it honours all three games and their music design. The different games all have unique and amazing qualities and this game shows it all off before you even get past the tutorial.
the absolute, pure excitement i hear in your voice as soon as you start speaking brings an immediate smile to my face
Aww, I know what you mean, I agree, I feel the same way! ^^
The moment pikmin 4 was announced I immediately became super giddy for you to make multiple videos geeking out on the sound design. I’m now overjoyed that i get to watch you play it too!!
I just knew he would immediately comment on the cave opening 'pop!' and he sure did haha. It's a _very_ satisfying sound. Wonder if he'll keep mentioning them every time, because my brain sure did during my own playthrough!

i love how at the start it sounds your gonna explode of emotion but your trying to keep it in
Hearing you immediately call out the little motifs and sounds from the different pikmin games was so impressive to hear! Even if they were as small as sound effects! It's not too much of a surprise knowing you study sounds as a hobby/career, especially pikmin sounds.
"Oh wow, Scruffy posted. I wonder what sounds we'll be-!
I would be honored to witness your pikmin experience."
Collin is definitely the kind of person to own two iPhones.
"Thank goodness I always carry an extra!"
💀💀💀💀💀
Literally the best intro to any Let's Play I've ever seen. Very excited to see another Pikmin fanatic's reactions to this!
Same here, ahhhh! ^^ I feel you! I'm really excited for it, too!
Im so excited for this era of the channel
Hope you enjoy the game
Was recently watching your older PikMAN videos to help me fall asleep. Thank you, I needed to set my sleep schedule straight
Average Pikmin VS Average PikMAN.
Hes never made a pikMAN video sadly :(
@@TibUA-cam he should have.
I love the voice you gave Collin omg. Cant wait to see more of this game!
Your collin voice is so perfect I literally can't hear him any other way omg
just hearing the excitement in their voice at the beginning gets me hype
YESSS SAME HERE AHHH
why is everyone referring to scruffy as "they"?
@@pastapastel910 certified he/they gamer
@@SWAGMONEY_DX Cool to know!
You do loads of diverse things in your channel and you make every single one of them with magnificent and utter talent, that’s how incredible it is
The excitement in your voice is palpable, so unbelievably endearing and heartwarming just to see how excited you are for this game!
29:47 I had the same feeling! The game just looks so highly detailed, the fact we can now look at this beutiful world at all angles just makes me so happy.

SCRUFFY LETS PLAY WOOOO

this man carried my pikmin excitement for years i hope you really enjoy it ❤
I am SOOOO excited to watch Scruffy play this, i didnt watch any other lets play so far since i knew he was doing this. I cant wait for him to make audio comparisons every 5 seconds its gonna be great!!!!!!!
Very excited to see your thoughts and reactions to this game. Love your videos
the sheer excitement in scruffy's voice just makes me happier in my day
I really like your commentary! You point out so many little touches throughout this video that I never would've noticed if you hadn't mentioned them
I'd love to see this continue on your channel. It's great seeing all the Pikmin Veterans tuning back in for this game.
yesss!!! I can't believe Scruffy is doing a let's play on Pikmin 4!
one of my most favorite, digital artists/animators/3D modelers/programmers/musicians/sound designers/(other art forms) playing one of my favorite Nintendo series's long awaited sequel.
I'm suprised to see a totally non-scripted video from this channel! it's such a pleasant surprise and I'm so excited to watch this series!
i love you being able to talk about the music as you go
OH HELL YES.
As someone who's played a bunch of Pikmin 4 and was reminded of my Pikmin (and gaming music) love by your channel, I'm very excited to hear your raw thoughts.
The last person id ever ever expect to become a lets play channel, and honestly im all for it
i know this is a month late, but i just recently got into the pikmin series a week ago through pikmin 4. it’s so amazing, especially the music. it’s fun watching others play pikmin 4 for the first time too! :D

You give a perspective on things that is like seeing a new world for the first time. Except it’s the same world that we’ve been experiencing already - it just seems to new and wondrous.
aaaahh wonderful!! I love to hear the excitement in your voice :)
Your voice is so calming to listen to! I couldn't think of a better person for a Pikmin Let's Play!
Shoutouts to the playable character in this game for being the only person in the history of Pikmin to have a smooth landing onto PNF-404
Your original Pikmin livestreams are some of my favorite lets-plays to revisit, I'm so excited for this new series! Your videos are so awesome
just checking out this series and even on episode 1 i can tell i'm in for a treat!!! glad to see you making stuff like this!!! and excited to see if you're gonna record another game like this in the future, i'd love to hear more live thoughts and reactions to games and how they use sound and music!!!
Welcome welcome! I hope you enjoy this series, it's a good one!!
one of the most calming and comforting lets plays i have ever watched. this was amazing, thank you

I’m so happy to see Scruffy making his pikmin 4 playthrough a series!!! Looking forward to seeing his reactions to so many parts of this lovely fantastic game
When the pikmin community needed him the most he came back

I came from your Splatoon videos, and I'm excited for your playthrough!
my eyes opened very wide reading the title
just started the postgame, very excited to watch you play
I swear the little jingle at the end of oatchis intro is the same as nintendogs when you meet a new freind / come home from a walk
I'm glad I came back to watch this after finishing the game. The joy you can feel from Scruffy is palpable and lets me relive how I felt
best pikmin 4 lets play on the internet. hands down. no cringe, no weird/filthy joke, no over rage... just the pure vibe.
This makes me so happy, the enthusiasm and excitement you express about this game is infectious!! Thanks for showing us what you love ☺️
i love that scruffy gives the characters voices
The excitement in your voice is palpable! :D
A whole playthrough? SIGN ME UP!
You could not believe how HAPPY i was seeing this in my recommendations!!!!!!
What first drew me to your channel was the perfect mix of top-notch content quality, caring and thoughtful analysis, and the seemingly endless optimism you bring to each and every story. Of COURSE your Pikmin playthrough would have the same care! Hearing you get so excited for a game franchise that I’ve barely even SEEN before, much less played myself, has me legitimately excited for the rest of this series. Keep up the amazing work!!
All of the musics are super without any hesitation.
Definitely unexpected, but I'm so glad you're doing a let's play! I'm interested to see how your musical insights factor into the gameplay
I’ve been watching your channel for years and seeing your enjoyment of finally playing this new game is so amazing
I love how he was so excited he only got to like the first 5 minutes
I love the fact that you analize every detail about this game: visual, music, commands, old mechanics and lore, i almost finished the game but I am gonna still watch the serie👍🏻
so i have only ever played pikmin 1 and i didn't actually ever complete the game. but now that all 4 of them are on the switch i'll buy all of them and get to experience this franchise i've heard nothing but good things about and im really excited.
Play 1 and 2 first. It's hard to go back to the older controls and Pikmin behavior if you played the new ones first.
It’s so strange kind of hearing the real live tone of his voice outside of his more scripted content but it’s a much more welcome change for such a series :) I love your vids scruffy, and I always will be impressd
i really enjoy his respect for small details in this playthrough, some other youtubers ive watched have definitely been more attentive to details because of scruffy, especially with the dynamic music!
It’s so awesome to see Scruffy play Pikmin and it’s even better to see the Pikmin fandom alive and well.
Scruffy, your content is so lovely and wholesome! I never thought I'd get to watch a let's play with live music analysis -- it's such a fantastic niche. I can't help but smile listening to your passionate and thoughtful commentary. Thank you for sharing this playthrough, and thank you for *all* the inspiring content you create!

Thank you for sharing your blind experience with Pikmin 4 with us Scruffy, we love hearing you gush about Pikmin
Ooohhh this is gonna be one of the loveliest playthroughs ever, I can already tell
i love your commentary its very cute when you talk about all the music and themes and visuals ❤
I looove listening to you absorb all the details on the spot
Can't wait for them to see the Groovy Long Legs!!!

Love to see Scruffy getting to play Pikmin 4 and hearing his genuine happiness throughout the video.
ive watched the whole series and im coming back to rewatch it a second time before the piklopedia episode comes out
