| Vodacixi said: As of right now, Dreams is nothing more than a "proof of concept" creator. "You can do a platformer". "You can wall jump". "You can make a shooter". "You can fly". But no one actually makes a full experience out of that. Until that happens, Dreams has no interest for me. I'm not a creator. Just like with Mario Maker, I want to play what others can make with this. But its been a year and I still feel like a teacher at elementary school looking at the kids science projects. They are curious, but mostly simple and they end in a blink. If this is supposed to be a tool to create worlds... Then people should prove it. But not by creating a few seconds/minutes long demonstrations where we control an already existing character. I think we got enough of that already. I'm sorry if I'm being... too harsh. I just keep reading how this is game is the second coming of Christ, but all I see are half baked demos. |
I checked out the Reddit for this game and while there are plenty impressive looking things on there, I came away underwhelmed. If these are supposed to be the hardcore insiders, most motivated to get into the creation side, then what is average Joe going to produce and muddle the discovery engine with. When the pros have issues with the fiddly controls, steep learning curve of the tools and huge time sink to create anything beyond a quick sketch, it doesn't sound like it will appeal to the masses.
As for the Wipeout demo, sure the ship looks like Wipeout, everything else feels off. The movement is completely wrong which is usually the problem when people start re-creating existing things.
It is interesting and since it will get PSVR support I will get it some time. It's not something that's a must day one, rather the opposite due to lack of a great single player campaign to get you into the game. If i get this day one it will end up the same way as LBP3, get disappointed by the campaign, do a quick browse of user stuff and find nothing but half baked early nonsense and never touch it again. It's the end of the gen and HDD space is very limited to have something sitting around waiting :/
