Very disappointing news. I love dreams and play it almost every week at least once. That there was so little support and new content from MM themselves was a bit of a letdown. But I am sure they did everything they could with the resources they were given. And that is the big letdown for me: Minecraft sells a bajillion copies, roblox is super popular and dreams languishes. With heavier investment, sony support and more time it could have been something.
But the design was cumbersome, the tools were complicated, the learning required to actually make a full level (of anything) was insane. So they fu*ked up themselves aswell.
In minecraft you can do very little. But people made mindbending things with it. In dreams there are tools for everything. But people did not care. Perhaps that is also something to keep in mind for anybody ever trying to make a user generated content game: don't be too ambitious with your toolset. Give them a little and see where the community might need more. I honestly think if they released dreams 4 years earlier with a quarter of the tools, it might have done better.
