A complaint often levelled at user-generated content is that it rarely plays as well as a professionally made game. It’s a fair criticism: hobbyist creators working in suites such as LittleBigPlanet are often capable of incredible artistic achievements, but it’s rare for amateurs to get that all-important “feel” right. That’s what makes this Super Mario 64-inspired sandbox made in Dreams all the more impressive.
IGN writes: "Media Molecule has said the layoffs at the Sony-owned studio have affected plans for ongoing community and curation support in Dreams."
How self sustained can DREAM be when it's basically stuck on PS4? I don't think it's even gotten a PS5 upgrade. Ending support for what is essentially a game making engine is basically death. SONY did DREAMS dirty.
Releasing the Nintendo Switch 2 with a Super Mario 64 remake would be the perfect way to unleash the console to the world.
If they ever did I hope they would add onto it, there's so much you could do with Princess Peach's castle alone
Or just make the Mario 128... the cancelled sequel that sounded amazing (or was it just an amazing tale).
Funny that after all these years, we still use 64 bit CPUs, so it wouldn't make sense to call it that.
Each level is pretty small today in the original game, I don't like huge levels but I think they could be at least 2x bigger, or close to it and more of them, with more things to do.
They could do a mix of having open levels and more linear ones like in 3D World or Land, I doubt they will do that but it would make a change.
I mean Odyssey's levels weren't massive, but requiring you to do different things in each world is what made the levels feel bigger than they were.
I'd prefer a Oydessey 2 or Galaxy 3. Besides the DS
game was a Mario 64 remake complete with more playable characters, stages, bosses and muti player content.
I did not like Odyssey i found the idea of ot lame.. i find it boring to just look for moons instead of exploring and enjoying the levels. Let’s not talk about the extremely repetitive and ridiculously easy bosses. Level design is so meh most of the time. Galaxy 2 is a far better game so Galaxy 3 anytime!!!
Agreed. I enjoyed Odyssey for a while, but it quickly became very formulaic where each level felt like a checklist of things to do with WAY too many moons to find. The Galaxy series were the best, as they took some of what made 64 great and juiced it up perfectly.
Yes! Let's release an almost 30 year old game to kick off the next generation for Nintendo...
I'm over re-releases...FEED ME NEW MARIO!
A huge Super Mario 64 speedrun trick has been discovered that could prove to wholly change the speedrunning scene in the ecosystem.
My only complaint with Dreams is that I went into the game thinking I would be able to remix and use all of the other user created assets no matter what. Yes there are quite a bit that are unlocked to borrow but I found that most of the user created characters that I wanted to use in my own endeavors were not able to be downloaded or remixed.
I get it that people don’t want others taking credit for and stealing the show with their creations, but I just imagine what the Dreams world would be like if everything were 100% “remix-able”.
There’s also the chance that maybe I’m not doing it right and these creations are usable?
That's pretty damn impressive. Feel like this game is gonna be a big deal.
Looking forward to what my mind creates with Dreams....this is creativity at its finest folks.....Furthermore, I look forward to seeing what others create and try out their games as well.
Flawlessly is an exaggeration. Besides the speed in which he runs, most of the animations do look quite similar. I wish they'd release the early access physically, it's hard for me to fork over 30 for a digital game but dang it I wanna play this
good job recreating the shitty physics of that overrated game, dreams is a creation-tool marvel indeed
