i was talking with a friend about why it is that we find the hocotate ship and Olimar's interactions so great compared to any other dynamic he has in all the games, and it sorta answered itself over time.
I think it was in a vc that they mentioned that it would be very funny if Collin had a single clue to how scummy Olimar can be and not "a really forgiving guy who gets pushed around and has serious mental problems but passive". Like even with Louie- Olimar sees to it that he apologizes to him for snapping or even asking the forgiveness of others on his behalf. With his own boss he contemplates on the fact that if he had died then maybe work could have been better for others around him and it is his fault for surviving. Even with his own family he would never fault them for any hardships and somehow always pin the blame on himself. All the cured leaflings described him to be kind and determined to save them despite being taken over by the pikmin parasite. Even the koppaites feel sorry for him despite the stereotypes dividing them at first
But you know who he doesnt regret being as scummy towards ? THE FUCKING HOCOTATE SHIP !! that ship doesnt coddle him or pity him in the same way others do and instead sasses back with the same energy. He is soo genuine and transparent when talking about that ship its so good to read those two interact because you dont NOT see that with anyone else
#luka posting#no tag for this. ppl have to dig for my long posts#my only gripe with the switch version of pik2 is that they made olimar so much more passive when I WANT HIM TO BE SCUMMY TOO !!#yeah hes prideful of his work. hes a nerd. he implies having been neglected of affection from both his spouse and parents#hes a freak like louie but on the other end of the scale. hes sarcastic DONT REMOVE THATT !!#let him be scummy occasionally it makes his “kinder” moments stand out and just makes him more human as a result#the sanitization of olimars dumb sexjokes and dick behavior is a crime#ppl might think this is me hating. no i love ALL the games- i could NEVER hate them story and gameplay included
