Pikmin 3 is awesome but this game is like really easy to a fault, I had like 500 pikmin deaths from me being careless mostly and playing on hard but still had like 200 of each pikmin type by the end of the game and I never once even grinded to get more pikmin. I would probably have 300 of each if I actually payed attention during the boss fights. I don't think you could even get away with that amount of carelessness in pikmin 1 and 2 and basically walk away unscathed. Not to say being easy is bad and pikmin 3 is still a fun very chill experience but maaaaybe sometimes it feels a little braindead when it comes to enemy encounters. Especially in the switch port where they added a charge button which practically just works as a delete button on most enemies. Still collecting fruit is fun and I highly recommend it.
