I completed the challenge mode getting all of the treasures and purple flowers. It's definitely possible but extremely hard... It would be easier with 2 players.
@@lanteanboy Maybe I'm dumb but I'm fairly sure most proper nouns, specifically names, don't have differeing pronunciations based on accents, so I'm pretty sure it should be Mah-rio no matter what.
Luigi has definitely pronounced it Mah-rio. It's Mah-rio. And Bowser Jr. And Fludd. And...I'm sure Bowser has...Peach does in 64, right? And yes, names *are* pronounced differently with different accents and languages. That's how accents work. But it's still an attempt to say the name as-is natively.
6:39 well AKSHUALLY the pikmin tell you whether or not there are treasures in your floor/area without the treasure radar. when the pikmin hum, they can hum 1 of 2 tunes (minus the special 5/20 one). the one they sing that is only 3 notes means there's still treasure, the one with 6 means there isn't.
I love how Lemon says at one point that his audience had no idea what Pikmin was because I'm right here in the minority that has Pimin in my top 3 series, and I have watched Lemon for forever. I just also watch Press A now, lmao.
Two Titans working together. As for Lemon's question "How do I Press A?". The answer is very long and complicated and involved skips and forcing items through walls you can't destroy because of personally imposed limitations.
this video is so chill and heartwarming. this feels like how Olimar and Louie would go through these caves together. (pushing canon and character traits aside) talking to each other all the while, its so good. love this typa stuff ❤
Honestly it’s how I imagine they are around the end of the of the debt, early on Olimar would try to start conversation with Louie not responding, and in Pikmin 3 both of them are getting sick of this planet and aren’t as friendly.
6:39 little irrelevant correction: even without the treasure radar, you can still hear a little droning noise after you collect the last treasure on a sublevel
I've done all treasures deathless once... and I'll never do that again; it made me irate. I understand why they wouldn't track both deathless and 100% treasures (because why would anyone choose to willingly do that to themselves), but having the game not track both made several levels turn into aggravated paranoia. The RNG on a few levels is BS that became a personal offense under a 100% deathless run, and I now have an unusually intense hatred for the creeping chrysanthemum. Having another player would have improved things dramatically... or we would have given up as our friendship came to a swift end. You two should return for that challenge. I'm fairly certain it's less aggravating than getting the antidioxin filter or guard satellite without blues/yellows, and together you have commiseration or a new plot point to forward the rivalry.
If you're still curious why you were doing very little damage against certain enemies - such as the Pileated Snagret - it's because using Bitter Spray will alter their defense Common enemies actually take 1.5x damage, whereas most bosses take less than 1x; the Pileated Snagret has a 75% reduction, therefore taking only a quarter of the damage it would when not petrified
Heya, I love your content, but the title "Can you beat... Deathless" when the game has a clear route to do it feels kinda off. Like if it's a challenge I question that's even possible like the others, I understand, but this kind of challenge already exists within the game and has its own reward for doing so. Sorry, it's just kind of an irk of mine, I've seen similar videos done in other communities like "Can you beat Spore being only an aggressive carnivore?" and it's like... well, yeah that's literally one of the main routes in the game.
As always the video is enjoyable, creative and informative for people that do not play for perfection. It is perfect down to the last detail. Honestly, i never thought of this as an enemy vs enemy rivalry. I instead thought of it like 2 close friends competing with each other in a game both enjoy to the fullest, which makes me kinda envious, because i know nobody that enjoys pikmin like me IRL. Thats why i love y'alls content so much, it gives me the feeling i desire and that is. Enjoying pikmin with banter. Great video and i hope there will be more wheather it be solo or team or without restrictions or with restrictions, you put yourself through it and i always love to recreate them afterwards myself. Much love and good health to everybody who reads this
The way Lemon makes videos is very attractive to watch even if you dont really understand the game. I have never played a darksouls, hell i wasnt even aware of the series until it was Remastered. I find his darksouls videos entertaining anyway.
Man, i did this challenge once (to get the louie cutscene) and it was more than torture, my least favorite ones to do was Gassy Grotto and Sniper Room, the rest were basically just having a keen eye. Edit: Honorable mention, Secret Testing Range was the one who actually gave me the most hellish experience
I did it a while back and the only one I had a lot of trouble with was Emperor's Realm, that took a few hours total for me to beat, but then again, I had played all the games on Switch and a second playthrough of 2 before doing the challenge arenas so I was much more experienced than my first time playing Pikmin 2, which I started with and, unsurprisingly, I did horribly in that playthrough
This was super fun to see! If you both want to keep collaborating, you should look into the Action Replay code that forces splitscreen co-op in the main game. It could be fun to make a challenge run with it!
FINALY ;) nah good video after you two doing the pvp matches. Great one hoping to see more of it. Maybe a dark souls coop or smething like dat. Coming from the back logs aka lemon with love. keep up the good work to the both of you. And finally cheers from french guy like me. XOP XO. PS: love the banter betwin you two.
"do they know you're Canadian?" American here who watches quite a few Canadians: i've known the moment i heard him say sorry and tomorrow because i say it that way and i picked it up from other Canadians i watch 😭
Of course you can do it if Nintendo gives you a special cutscene for it. I did beat 28 out of 30 of the challenges back in September when the Switch Port came out (and I didnt do the challenges back on Wii). The last 2 missions I had to do (mission 25 and 30) were by far the worst and I didn´t do them until literally last week. :D I´m glad I can see someone else suffering through the levels, like I did. :D And I am excited to see if its much easier with 2 players or not. :D
Listen here pal, I did the exact same thing without anyone else besides me and my funny carrot people *AND* Getting every last bit of treasure because I’m suffering from imaginary OCD. If I could make a single species from the entire pikmin franchise go extinct, it would be the Pileated Snagret just for the single challenge mode level _“rumbling grotto”_ for the utter torture of completing the first sub level just to lose *ONE* single Pikmin forcing me to restart *FROM THE BEGINNING.* This is proof that I am a certified carrot man gamer and this dude is too scared of the game giving its own challenges instead of his own 🔥🔥 💯 💯
39:13 In regards to ultra bitter sprayed enemies. If you read the Pikmin 2 wiki, it says that certain enemies have a damage taken modifier. Most take 1.5x damage when ultra bitter sprayed while some take less. Pileated snagret only takes 0.25x damage when ultra bitter sprayed. So that's why you struggled to do any damage to it. Hopefully this is useful information. 😊
Speaking of p2 challenge mode, the scoring system is 10 times the amount that you earned, so if you got say 1,725 pokos, you’ll actually get 17,250 pokos or something like that.
the video should be titled "can *We* Beat Pikmin 2's Challenge Mode Deathless? (ft. The Backlogs)" Because of course we can otherwise the cutscene wouldnt be found till now(no offence i love your videos)
Now that you guys are on good speaking terms, I know of a pikmin 2 mod that I think you guys might like, and that I’ve been looking for someone to do a 2 player playthrough of. This mod is called Colossal Caverns. Think of it as the closest that a pikmin game can get to being a roguelike. I don’t have anything to offer other than likes and subscriptions, but if you guys do it together I think it would make some great content!
This was overall a great video, but I have some gripes--I felt like it started to blend together because there was no introduction to each stage--not even showing that you guys went to each area--so it was sortof like cutting stuff around and it got really confusing to me. I noticed the one longer one where you guys got wrecked by the Groink at the end just randomly appeared complete in the few times you showed the menu, and I was confused by that too. This is your first time with a longer video though, so it's reasonable to be a bit rough. I really liked the actual video content though, you two are entertaining!
I hate pikmin 4 , I'm confused whenever I hear someone say its good. Hated the tone, hated the balance, hated the story, hated all the busy work, pretty much the only positive thing I have to say about it is "it looks nice".
48:26 Once I learned how to fight this boss, I always found it fun. I don’t think it really is terrifying though, unless there are no walls to hide behind. I don’t know why this is such a struggle, can someone try to explain why they find it hard?
Throwback to when i 100% deathless the challenge mode as a kid and the memory card got corrupted. Years later i got a new card and was like "welp guess i gotta do it again!"
This is deemed one of the hardest challenges? Guess child me not willing to lose a single Pikmin in the story prepared me. My mother and I did this when I was just a kid, and I had to help my mother much more often than her helping me. Certain stages were a bitch, though. The one with the Groink on the tower in the center of the map was my worst I think.
My brother and i got very very good high scores in the challenge mode when we were kids. The maze one we eventually got amazing luck. The key and hole spawned right at the start on each floor
Oh man, I remember doing this challenge with my brother back in the day. When we finally got it, we were rewarded with… another reason to hate Louie XD
You should do a conservationist run. You try to leave nature intact, dont get any more pikmin than you are given, kill as fre enemies as possible, pick up your litter, and leave the planet
Challenge mode deathless isn't hard. The issue is that it doesn't require treasures to actually get the pink flower and the secret cutscene. Getting all treasures deathless is the real challenge.
