stepee Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 Damn it is free to play, I kinda figured, but still will play what I can off what’s there for free then. For this one mayyyybe I’ll buy a standard pack for some extras, but i don’t really do micro transactions stuff as a rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 Oh this is out today? Also it’s on game pass? Why is it on gamepass if it’s free to play, do you get extra currency or whatever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxEvil AshxX Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Good impressions. And to be fair to the game, Brandon mentions telling Scrooge that swimming in money is impossible. It's DuckTales canon that Scrooge is the ONLY character that can swim in money. Others have tried and failed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwinIon Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 This is very much outside my realm of interest, but it's easy to see how Disney might have a hit on their hands with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 oh I bet it’s early access so you have to pay for some pack to get access now, and that’s what you get from gamepass or you can play it f2p when it comes out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting in summer 2022, you’ll have the chance to be one of the first to play Disney Dreamlight Valley in Early Access with the purchase of a Founder’s Pack or with an Xbox Game Pass membership ahead of the game’s official launch in 2023. During the early access phase, you’ll be one of the first players to explore Dreamlight Valley, and will get exclusive rewards that you’ll retain once the game officially launches next year. So according to the website it is free to play and you do purchase the early access. But then beyond the 30 dollar one there is a $50 Ultimate and $70 deluxe version which is why I as kinda confused.

stepee Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 That’s kinda cool you get the $30 pass with gamepass, I’ll check this out on deck later today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 I’m trying to see if you get the extra starter gems and stuff from the standard pack or if it’s just early access with no bonus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chakoo Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I'm still kind of in shock this got made in the first place but I guess things vastly improved between Disney & Gameloft after the company heads (gameloft) got the ***k out and Magical Kingdom kept doing so well for so many years. Just some fun insider baseball for you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 I just created my character. Which is a really boring process for me because I look really generic so all I do is pick the generic white male template there always is and remove the hair. It looks like I didn’t get any gems with the gamepass version? I didn’t get anywhere yet though, maybe that’s later. The game looks nicer than I expected honestly. I hope you can play this decently without opening your wallet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxEvil AshxX Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 They keep saying how their kingdom fell into ruin when their previous ruler left... I can't help but wonder if they're referring to Bob Iger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't help but wonder if they're referring to Bob Iger I was wondering if the forgotten thing in general is talking about old school Disney (mickey, donald, movies up to the mid 90s or so) being less popular now than all the Marvel and Star Wars stuff for Disney? Either way, good theory on the ruler! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 Oh and there IS cross save, thanks goodness. So I can just play free on GP and then switch to Steam for easier deck access if I get super into it or when it goes f2p. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, good theory on the ruler! As somebody who worked at Walt Disney World in the early 2000's and has visited friends there almost yearly since then, I am definitely drawing some parallels with "The Forgetting" especially since this year is WDW's 50th anniversary and their big fireworks projection show was all Brave, Coco, Soul, Frozen, etc. Not bad movies, but hardly what you should be basing a 50th anniversary show on. My wife and I were like "WTF was that? What about all the characters that got them there?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stepee Posted September 9, 2022 Author Share Posted September 9, 2022 I finally dove in last night and got all the magical tools and upgraded the amount of items I can carry and some other stuff. I haven’t seen yet what I need to do to make my house bigger because right now it’s pathetic and I can’t even fit a bedroom section in. Did some stuff for Goody and upgraded his shop too. Apparently you can’t buy stuff with real money besides the initial packs right now? I like that, I feel like playing right now might be best for me while it’s more just them tweaking the core game and before it becomes some kind of real money shop. Its really a nice looking game for this type of thing. This might get its hooks in me. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercury33 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 I feel like I’m taking crazy pills but I don’t see anywhere on the PS5 version to enable the cross platform play. On Switch there’s a Cloud Save option which prompted creating a GAMELOFT account. But no such option exists thah I can find on PS5, I don’t even see an option to log in and load cloud data on PS5. Anyone able to help with this? Am I just being dumb and missing it in an obvious spot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted September 23, 2022 Author Share Posted September 23, 2022 I really need to just buy this on steam. I love it every time I play but it’s the sorta thing you jump in and out of, and having to remote to my pc to play it, doesn’t work for that sorta game as well.

TheLeon Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 I downloaded this on Game Pass and only barely started it, but it does feel like something I could dip into occasionally when I just want to relax and not think too much.
