    Sleeping is actually super useful! it can kind of act like the go here function in pikmin 3, taking your captain back to the ship whilst you can perform tasks with the other one! + it has a ton of uses in speedrunning!

    • @Aqbrhino
      @Aqbrhino  Рік тому +21

      Yeah but it feels a little clunky and unsatisfying to use at least for me and I regularly forget I have it, and in Pikmin 2 speed isn't really necessary unless you're speed running, so for the majority of players it doesn't really change anything, but I admit it is useful in speedrunning

      Also, you can get certain items early which helps speed up your gameplay overall. For instance, you can get for resistance and bitter sprays both on day 3, if you play your cards right.

    So, the 5-man napsack does something... REALLY obscure.
    If you fall alseep, your captain will become resistant to being crushed.
    This also destroys the projectiles from larva beetles.
    I have NO idea why it does this, but it can be somewhat useful.

      I remember that in that cave as a kid i lost a captain and coulnd't kill the final boss. With just one captain i had no clue that you were supposed to have two to beat it and i was just too stubborn to leave and come back later. Long story short i essentially softlocked myself and tried to kill the boss for a few days eventually giving up and dropping the gaming, only coming back to it 4-5 years later starting from scratch and beating it fully

    I really like the frontier cavern because it feels like a true test for everything you have learned so far. It starts out simple, but slowly introduces harder and harder enemies throughout. It’s one of the only caves that feels like it gets harder the further you progress. It’s a great cave because you probably have just finished most of the awakening wood and perplexing pool. so this cave is introducing the second half of the game, where stuff really goes down.

    Early game Pikmin 2 caves: time to kill a bulborb and get some purples!
    Lategame pikmin 2 caves: The victim is placed in a metal wall room with a sandpaper conveyor belt floor. The floor moves at a slow pace and never stops. The victim would have to keep moving to stop from being scraped. They would tire and eventually pass out, and would scrape against the floor. This would wake them up and make them stop themselves crawl to stop themselves from bleeding out. They would eventually pass out again and not wake up.

    I once got the Water Wraith stuck between a poison nozzle and a tunnel that it couldn't go through for some reason. It was kinda funny to see. But once you figure out how the AI works with the Water Wraith, he isn't that bad. He can't crush your Pikmin if you use the Swarm ability to press your entire army against a wall. Granted, with the Water Wraith chasing you, it's difficult to carry the treasure back to the ship safely. But what makes me dread Submerged Castle more than the Water Wraith are the bomb rocks and the volatile dweevils. There are way too many bomb rocks on the 4th floor, so much so it's very easy to lose a lot of Pikmin to that because you have very little time to react, and sometimes managing your squad, especially when you're under a lot of pressure, gets quite janky.

    19:15 This theory is a fun one, but probably doesn't add up too well. The treasure in question, the Mysterious Remains, is a crustacean claw for sure, but it is clearly a cooked crab claw. Cooking crustacean shells brings out the red pigment due to chemical heat reactions. You could theorise that the emperor bulblax has a high enough internal temperature that it literally cooks its prey, but that seems unlikely. Furthermore, the fact that the treasure placement is not only different for the EU version (Where it is replaced with the Container of Knowledge), but also the JP version (Where it is replaced with the わかる者の シンボル, loosely translated to "Symbol of an Understood Person"). Because it's not there in the JP version, where the game was primarily developed, I think it's a reach to assume the devs put it there intentionally. The segmented crawbster is simply a caricature of a real life lobster, which does have disparate claws where the right claw is significantly larger than the left, and I don't think the "claw being eaten by the emperor bulblax" theory is really relevant.

    Quick correction : the napsack actually has a really good use, the game just doesn’t explain it: the napsack is a lesser version of pikmin 3’s “go here” command, you use it to bring a captain back to the onion while the other is off doing other things, this is helpful is 1 captain has basically ran out of most of their pikmin but there’s a ton at the onions
    It’s situational, since if you have more then 4 pikmin then most will be left behind but it’s still really helpful at times
    Also it’s better then the rush boots, which are actively negative since you move faster then pikmin and if you get to far away they leave your squad

    Bud, the five-man napsack is the best upgrade in the game. The utility offered by it vastly outclasses the usual gamut of just becoming more damage resistant, which are significantly less important if you're experienced at the game. The ability to have your second captain be doing something while inactive is incredibly useful, not to mention the sequence breaks possible through pathing exploits.

    • @Aqbrhino
      @Aqbrhino  Рік тому

      A lot of people have said that it is better than I gave it credit, and I agree with them, but to me it is definitely not the best upgrade, some that I consider to be better are the Treasure Gauge, the whistle upgrade, and the rocket fist in some niche situations
      All in all I just don't like using the knapsack, but by all means use it if it's fun and useful for you

    Submerged castle is obviously #1 but personally I would put cavern of chaos at a distant #2. Glutton’s kitchen is cool but I legitimately hate sublevel 5, and the first and fourth sublevels are completely useless. Snagret Hole is really cool for the first two sublevels at least conceptually but then it just devolves into snagrets, annoying enemies, and dark gloomy imagery. Subterranean complex is very enjoyable and good conceptually overall but some of the sublevels (the one with the groinks mainly) are completely useless plus I have bad associations with it bc it’s what I use to grind purple pikmin for that horrible treasure in the wistful wild. All the other caves are either mediocre, uneventful, or actively painful (and not in a way that pays off like SC), and yet somehow I still think the caves are a worthwhile part of the game overall and that P2 is the best in the series so far.
    also I feel like you understated how hard Dream Den is, it’s a contender for the hardest cave in the game imo, there’s 14 sublevels, no candypop buds, a lot of horrible floor layouts like sublevel 2 where a groink is on top of a tower, sublevel 7 where a million dirigibugs, snitchbugs, and blowhogs are all in the same room with a blocked exit, or sublevel 10 where there’s a groink along with all the worst water enemies (and fiery blowhogs with their ability to blow fire completely maintained in the water for some reason???) and you may not have enough blues to pick up the treasure.

    while i agree that white flower garden isn’t really noteworthy at all, i used the five man nap-sack quite a few times throughout my 2 play throughs. It’s the ONLY thing in pikmin 2 that you can simultaneously do with one captain while the other continues to work. need to get back to the base quickly but there’s still much more to do? the time it would take to walk back and then switch to continue doing your tasks is wayyyyy longer than if you simply lie down and continue working. it genuinely made my life easier. it’s no “go here” feature from 3, but it is something!

    Subterranean Complex needs you to bring literally one Pikmin to make into ten or so purple Pikmin. There are queen candy pop buds that turn that one Pikmin into more than that, and then those guys into even more. There’s less risk of you losing Pikmin on repeat visits

      Yeah preserving pikmin is the best reason for choosing the subterranean complex over Bulblax Kingdom, but by the time I need a bunch of purples, I have enough of every Pikmin, so I take the convenience of the bulblax kingdom over the pikmin preservation of the subterranean complex

    @pikminologueraisin2139 Рік тому +2

    generally I like caves that are unique or cave that aren't too easy and too long
    snagret hole is the first challenging cave you encounter imo, the music is nice and the two first levels are cool visually. the gimmick of having some snagrets buried on certain sublevels is also pretty cool and the boss while boring is one of only boss that isn't cheese-able so you have to be focused while fighting it. and the Metal Suit is more fat hit points, imo it's quite useful to not die as quickly as without it.
    imo Bulbax kingdom is wack, it should be at snagret hole place
    I agree with you about the bosses and the fact that hole of heroes is essentially a boss run make it for not the best cave but it's at least an unique characteristic, it could be shorter though I think you placed it well
    I really like the boss from frontier cavern, the wack ass layout and gimmick of the empress farting lil' deadly bunfaces endlessly is very unique and forces you to think outside the box. the same boss from the hole of hero is actually bad imo because the element of surprise isn't there anymore and the layout is too straightforward making it very easy to defeat
    I like the general mechanical theme of the subterranean complex, the boss like you said is cool and as I've already said I like caves that aren't too easy and too long. 9 sublevels is the perfect number of sublevels
    shower room is a bit like this too just replace the mechanical theme by.. shower room and a good boss by a bad boss in execution. the music is cool
    cavern of chaos has a good boss too I agree and it has the perfect number of sublevels too
    gluton kitchen is so charming and unique I love it
    dream den is basically an endurance exercice, it's long and can be boring if you're decent enough at the game
    very underwhelming as the final cave of the adventure with such a cool final boss
    here my tierlist
    S- as in submerged castle
    A- frontier cavern / subterranean complex / cavern of chaos
    B- snagret hole / glutton kitchen
    C- the vibe that is shower room
    D- hole of heroes / dream's den (bedroom of famous minecraft youtuber)
    E- citadel of spiders and it's banging soundtrack / hole of mrbeast
    F- bulbax boredom
    T- emergence cave / WFG
    in conclusion half of the caves are qualitative and while the first ones are lame in comparaison to the latter they do their jobs as tutorials
    and in conclusion to your video:
    you're hella funny and your reasoning is good but please for the love of breadbugs and bulbmin
    get good

    • @Aqbrhino
      @Aqbrhino  Рік тому +1

      Interesting opinions, I do have to give credit to the Snagret hole for being unique and for the boss being uncheesable, doesn't mean I'd put it higher, but definitely something that stands out, also I agree that 9 sublevels is pretty much the perfect amount for a cave
      And as for getting good, I'll work on it lol
