Weird dlc and spit-balling ideas

[TheSpiderKing]

I get putting a beef cake of a man like Gastan in a dlc. But, why wasn't he just patched into the beauty and the beast world. This rift in time dlc makes no sense. Given Beauty and the beast, and Aladdin in there timeline don't connect to each other given ya know. Given the Arabian and French cultures arn't exactly the same region lol

Maybe the jungle book, or tarzan may have worked as a timerift area. But, given Disney lost the rights to Tarzan. An I'm pretty sure in the other Game-Loft game Disney speed storm. Disney still owns the rights to the Disney adaptation of the Jungle book to use the characters in Disney Dreamlight valley.

If I were to consider buying dlc for $30 which mind you is the prince of half of a new tripple A game or a pretty good indie game. I would hope the dlc at least adds some kind of value that justifies the price. Based on the trailer I just don't think the dlc is worth $30+tax from what I could see.

If we had time rifts. Why not have Pirates of the Carrabian and The little mermaid, The hunchback with the 1980's robin hood. I get the areas may not be region accurate. But, based on context and if they make sense visually. I think these choices would make more sense. Heck have toy Mona and Lelo and stich have a time rift. Because, those characters live on Hawaii . Making the time-rift thing actually work. A time rift could work. Even, if it was a cross parallel world type of thing. Heck I'm pretty sure big hero 6 and zootopia could world as a mirror world situation.

Considering Disney partly owns the right to Sora from kingdom hearts. The Destiny islands could also be used. I know this is just spit-balling ideas. But, I think these ideas could work as dlc. If Game-Loft were able to create these types of dlc. At a reasonable price. Even, if the dlc just adds characters.

Little Mermaid is already present in the core game, we have Ariel, Eric and Ursula.
And some outfit skins for Ariel and Ursula if those have been unlocked.

Rift in Time plot spoiler:
The Agrabah palace wasn't there originally, neither was the time rift. Jafar created them after he was banished to the island by Genie. Jafar claims it was because he tried to take on the Ruler's responsibilities after she disappeared from the valley, but I think he's lying and he tried to conquer the valley instead.

Whatever Jafar did that disrupted time caught Gaston's ship and threw it into the desert area.

We don't need time rifts to bring new villagers into the game, they can just be there.
The valley (probably the whole world) is the product of the Ruler's imagination, so whatever she dreamt up came into being.

Basically, the Dreamcastle is a portal nexus between all the realms where the villagers are found, so it's just a matter of the Ruler opening a new portal to that realm and enabling travel of her new villager into the world she created.

Since Stitch actually left the valley and flew into space, this suggests that there could be other planets out there too.

I am hoping to see a second DLC at some point, because I need another locale for villager houses.
That could be months away though, the release of the current DLC isn't even finished.

Just because, the 3 man characters are in the little mermaid world doen't mean other characters like king triton, aerial sisters or other side characters couldnt be added. Given, Game-Loft tends to recycle models from game to game and 3 characters is rather short and makes any world pretty boring. Which there was a Disney game that also was created by Game-Loft on android that had pretty high poly assets that could be ported into dream valley. So more characters really should be added to help make some worlds less void of life.

Being the world is based on the rulers imagionation. Youd think with the halloween town more than jack, sally, and oggie boogie would be there. Considering again alot of high poly models from other Game-Loft Disney games exists. That should and could be helping fill the worlds to make them feel less lifeless. Considering this is a cozy game that's trying to be like animal crossing, harvest moon, and other similar games. The lack of characters and content or rather characters to interact within the unity data. Feels like more could have been done.

I get it could be months before, new characters get added. But again Game-Loft has the same level of poly models in there Disney android game. So the assets for other worlds and Disney products exists with full animations. With Disney Speed storm which also uses base models of Disney characters. Disney dream valley could offer users who bought Disney Speed storm before it went free to play. Some kind of unlock able. Like Beast in his driving outfit as a alt skin.

Its been almost 3 months since, actually new content. An if you ever data mine unity games with a tool called asset studio gui to scan unity games for models, animation, and other junk. The time rift dlc or rather the content has been in the game for sometime.

It feels like with all the Disney models Game-Loft has available within there own free and paid games. It sucks not seeing them used in this game . To help make some places feel more lived in. Hopefully in the future more voicelines could get added since, the game can cycle between a short recording list a fair bit.

I think for the price the game sold for. The game really could just use just a bit more characters. Even if Stich couldn't get in. Whats stopping the game from having a time portle that goes back to the time stich first came to hawaii. Or heck it would be awsome to see a world based on kim possible , see drake long, or some just have them visiting via some weird portle your island.

Maybe I played to much animal crossing XD so, Disney Dream Valley short comings become more obvious. Since, you can't even swim or do some other things which is really odd in Disney Dream Valley.

Please clarify, did you not think Stitch is in the valley?
He is another core game character.

I would love to have Arista as a villager, but I don't see them adding any of Ariel's sisters.

Some new characters are on the way.
I don't remember all of them, but Mulan and Tiana will be due to arrive sometime within the next six months.

I hope they don't add American Dragon, because PerBlue did add Jake and Rose to DBHM and stuffed that up so much, despite the objections of their players.
They actually did want the AD characters, but season 1 designs, which they did not get.

Well at some point new characters do need to be added to make the worlds feel more lived in. If you only have say 3-4 characters per world. Being most assets are reused from other Game-Loft games. At the very least maybe the time rift was a waist of time on the developers side of things.

Last I recall the base world has normally 4 ish characters which isn't much. The other worlds felt rather restricted for what should be a cozy game. The mechanics of the game does feel like it was based on games around, the early 2000s. So some features really should be added in the future.

Based on Disney Dream Valley price and compairing it to other games you could get for the same price. The base game does feel a bit lacking. We don't have Goofy's son max (as far as Im aware), I dont think simba, scar, mufsa, and some other older characters arnt really used. I'm kinda surprised with pc and stylus support for pc and nintendo switch. There's no customization feature to hand draw custom designs. Which has been a thing since, my sims on the ds.

If Disney wasn't so closed fisted. A music cafe where you could chill and maybe play lite rhythem games so see the player dance with the characters. Or, something else would deffiantly help add some life to the game.

You know when I said about, stich and Moana. I was just reffering to ideas for cross over words that could be used for the time rift concept.

[Tilarta]

Characters listed by locale unlock:
Core Game: 14
Realm: 12
DLC: 3

There are 9 pending characters coming to the core game either via realm or core game.
The DLC has 2 additional pending characters.
List:
Muian
Tiana
Ralph
Timon
Pumbaa
Cinderella
Sulley
Mike
Unnamed Vibrant Villager
Unnamed Lucky Vilager (DLC)
Jafar (DLC)

So I would not expect any characters who aren't on that list to be added until they've finished this release cycle, however long it takes.

honestly the way the world is set up it seems like they were trying for a more "how would these characters interact" rather than putting them in their box with the characters from their movie and such.
