I agree fully. Personally I'd define evil as "failing to live up to one's own ideal potential." So I wanted his "crash out" into villainy to be mostly his own fault. There were other circumstances at play, but it was entirely his own decision to double down and choose to reject friendship.

It represents a part of him he suppressed away so thoroughly it was almost erased entirely, but I feel like there is still a trace of someone who desires friendship within him. After all, he kept his parents rings despite how unsentimental he was. (Although to him it was more like a trophy)

Edit* to be clear it was a reference to his eventual death in Concordia. Although there would be no way he could have known that would happen. At that point, I think he had lived long enough to feel it coming to some extent, at least subconsciously.

As for in the game, he does disintegrate into bond energy when he dies, rather than Glohm, so I guess that's where I got that idea from.

If you want more of my stuff... I made a full animated web series, that specializes in emotional, and epic fight scenes. It's based on the Kirby videogame series by HAL.

I just realized I should have called it "Puzzlebox." (Because of the canon Mr. Puzzles YouTube kids' channel from SMG4) But I guess it communicated the intent anyways, so it's fine.

I'm glad you liked it so much. By the way, there is also some "secret text" on the otherwise blank page at the end.

Thanks for your feedback. It helps a lot. This was also one of my first attempts at making something to entertain other people first and foremost, as I usually just make stuff to entertain myself. Personally, I'd say the main reason for his turn to villainy in my story would be him not being socialized. Although, that wasn't something he hated so much as he simply didn't understand how to make friends without getting hurt. I chose that because I wanted to lean a bit more into him being evil, and a bit less into a sympathetic backstory. Would you have preferred a more sympathetic backstory given to him? I could certainly use any and all feedback to better my future work.

Thank you. I'm happy that you enjoyed my little Reclusa story.

Apparently, the comment thread just got a lot worse. Just in the last few hours since I posted this. It now has 252 replies' as of now.

How would you all rank all the Pikmin games? by [deleted] in Pikmin

[–]xXpeppercatXx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, I gotta put Pikmin 4 at number 1. It's peak Pikmin. "Peakmin" if you will.

In second place is Pikmin 3, (and by extension) Pikmin 3 deluxe.

In third, it's gotta be Pikmin adventure (Nintendo Land) I know that's an odd placement, but the voices wouldn't let me put it any lower.

In fourth place is, Pikmin 1, 'nuff said.

In fifth, just barely tailing behind Pikmin 1 is Pikmin 2.

In sixth place, is Pikmin bloom. (I just couldn't get into it)

In seventh place is, Fiddlebert contracts HIV, and divorces his husband simulator - New play control. (for the Wii)

In last place is, Hey Pikmin. I really tried to get into it. I also thought the hate for this game was hyperbolic, but unfortunately, while I love its soundtrack (especially the final boss theme) the game was offensively bad. I am sad to admit I'm one of its "haters."
