I'm not the one you asked, but I also "fear" this.
Tried the first Pikmin way back. I could not stand it. For some reason the music of the game made my want to rip my ears off. After half an hour I set the TV to mute, in order to try and play some more. But what was left did not engage me. I don't get it. Just got annoyed trying to control the little guys. And the environments trying some photo-realistic look and at the same time populated with colorful cartoony looking creatures strained my eyes. Considered playing in black and white but at that point I just turned it off.
Simply put. Pikmin is the absolute worst game I felt I gave I decent chance.
The fear of success for this game from my perspective only comes from a selfish view that the talents spending years on the games (particularly the living legend Miyamoto) could have spent that time producing something I might enjoy. With good sales they will keep spending that time on additional entries.
That said. I hope fans of the franchises enjoy Pikmin 4 to the fullest and my personal preference aside, innovative and unique experiences are good for the industry, so I hope it thrives. I just wont touch it.
