This game is easily worth $60 but the fact that it’s $40 is a blessing. Respect to Media Molecule. I only wish I was younger so I had more time on my hands to explore my dreams.
I hope you enjoy the community's dreams you may find one of yours there! I found some favorites already! That's what's great about it even if you only have a little time each day you can jump into the pool of community's levels and dreams and enjoy!
Lol yeah same. Pretty much i will spend most of the time by playing other peoples' creations instead of making one myself. Really dont have time for that while i have other games to play.
Ok, first time knowing about this. Not even exaggerating, this could be a milestone of gaming and art, in history. The catalyzing effect is incredible.
The fact that a game can be crowdsourced and built from nothing to full scale universe is incredible and almost reminds me of something akin to Inception, the Matrix (except controlled by us rather than machines) or Ready Player One. There's a touch of Schenectady NY (the Charlie Kaufman movie) in here too. It's like, imagine in the future a virtual reality game with photorealistic graphics and full-sense immersion that is constantly evolving due to millions of users contributing to it. Where does reality begin and our collective dreaming end in that kind of world? What does that do to human society and our individual and combined consciousness? Or to ask a more contemporary, relevant pop culture question: when we all fall asleep, where do we go?
That isn't even hyperbole, my little brother has been playing this game non-stop for days and I honestly think he now has a big interest in game development. He's networking with people and working on projects and I can imagine the same thing is happening to thousands of other young people. This can very well be the catalyst that brings down the barrier to entry for game design and results in a new generation of developers
@@lordlubu3029 When I was a kid I played a lot of poor liscensed games, like Nicktoons Unite, Madagascar, Shrek 2, Incredibles... The Spongbob games were apleasannt exception. Now that i am an adult, my game ideas lean more original, but when I was a kid, all my game ideas were "oh man, when I'm an adult, I'm going to make the Shrek game but better. You'll be able to play as 20 characters..." and so on. And now that is entirely possible and I'm kind of stunned that these "lost" childhood dreams could now be realized. I'm just completely blown away, and I actually cried at how beautiful this things is.

Jordan Fletcher Sony allows them to be. They give them so much freedom to do whatever they want I mean dreams took forever to develop and Sony didn’t really care as long as they like where they’re going with a project their happy.
Unfortunately they’re not like this with all of their studios especially naughty dog but even lately Sony has been pretty lenient with them too. Japan studio is probably the closest one to having the same amount of freedom as mm. They’re treating their studios better and better as they grow wich is always great to see.

GeraBlitZ because he wasn’t going off topic and was giving an in-depth analysis as to what the game is and could/will be in the future. Too often do you see games journalists comparing games to each other and just copying 80% of the original review and just re-naming the subjects of the new game. Example: “The surge is like dark souls for cyberpunk fans, the game mechanics follow the same rules of dark souls where you pick your battles carefully because its brutal game design makes it so you can’t rush the game as you learn all the enemies mechanics before moving on. The rest points are also like dark souls where you will respawn and restock your healing items and just like dark souls doing so will make the enemies respawn” Journalists that do that are shitty, they would never talk about the unique aspect of aiming for specific parts of other mechs to break off to use for your own or how in depth the customization of the game goes. This reporter talked about both the gameplay Dreams creates for you, what you can create with the tools given, it’s limits and capabilities, the making of new developers and studio teams etc. Thats really important to point out about this game because that’s the stuff that will draw in people that like this style of gaming where everyone can show their skills in their unique ways. Just like how Minecraft blew up to being one of the biggest video games in history offering no limits to those who made their own mods for anything, or even vanilla creations that have been made in the game. This journalist could have just called it Minecraft 2 HD and said Minecraft 40x like other journalists say “Souls-like” in their works comparing the 2 games.
This game is amazing because it encourages creativity and appreciating what others have made. I bet the community is gonna be one of the most accepting and respecting out there in like all of society
For anyone who still doesn't know what Dreams is.. it's basicially an engine in which you can create anything you can possibly imagine with very small limitation.. most of the time it's your own imagniation. So you can create your own games, films, art, music & anything in between and beyond or you can play the stuff that others made and there are some indie worthy titles already after 1 year.. a few people aim for making triple A games! Not a single one should miss out on this masterpiece, especially when you are creative =) I do make videos about Dreams if you would like to learn more about it!
It's has a huge limitation if what you're imagining is a complex game. For example, you can probably create an existing character like Dante from Devil May Cry, and animate him with some of the same moves, but you can't then fit in multiple enemies with all their battle animations.
@Mr. Flash You can create your very own games within a game. Its a very interesting concept but I don't think I'll buy it any time soon because I'm not into sandbox games, maybe in the future.
*Simon Cardy.* That’s who did this review and IGN really needs to start putting the reviewer’s names in the video title or we’ll never break past generalizing all IGN reviews. Great review, Simon!
@@fiveleafclover6077 Yeah, we saw it there but it’s cause we are looking. Your average IGN hater isn’t looking in the description and may not even have the capacity to understand the concept of one reviewers opinion.

"Exclusively to Playstation" are no longer valid but its more like "Time Exclusive to playstation". So i might skipping ps5 and upgrade my pc, atleast i can focus on 1 platform and ps4 might be my last sony console if other sony exclusive titles coming to pc. P.S i bought ps4 to enjoy its exclusive game, now sony releasing their exclusive game to pc, so no point for me to stay on sony platform just like my xbox360 was my last xbox console since their games is on pc too, plus still love my vita for its exclusive title like soul sacrifice Delta, freedom war, uncharted, killzone and etc.
I saw someone remake an unreleased sonic game in Dreams, complete with an old school filter and everything. I saw something FFVII related that look _very_ polished, hell someone made a full Crash Bandicoot sequel, with 7+ levels. This is insane.
One of my favorite video on what Dreams is and the potential. In my eyes Dreams will inevitably become popular, it's loved by most who even understand just a fraction of what Dreams is. I believe that speaks volumes, when psvr and multiplayer releases there will be no stopping this game popularity, I already see it coming to PS5 its a no Brainer, and if the claims of it coming to PC is true, we have another minecraft level of popularity on our hands.
I really can't see this game living up to the hype, because if it does it actually would change gaming forever. I wouldn't agree with your statement about minecraft level of popularity. If this actually lives up to the hype, it will by far exceed minecraft's popularity and could exceed the popularity of consoles themselves. And that is why I just don't see this game being that deep, it still seems too early.
Even Fortnite has a higher rating which doesn't make any sense. How is a game where you jump from a bus and kill people be better than a game where you can do everything you could imagine?
This is SO original. Looks like media molecule has made a once in a lifetime experience. It's like little big planet on the biggest acid trip, then finding out you're the creator all along that can make anything! Man. Glad to hear and see all these amazing things people made!
Data Insighter this game is going to do a lot for the gaming industry and might even be the next Minecraft but it has some funky control layouts at the moment but that won’t hold it back at all that’s just what I think held it back from that perfect score
@@lampzhade I was iffy on it early on but I jumped back into it around a month ago and idk if the game became better at curating but as far as just playing things, I have found so many amazing experiences. It's worth giving it another shot.
This really should be game of the decade....is it the best graphics? No. best sound? No....but it is so much much more than that....and the idea that it is 99.9% user generated...this is one of the most unique and underrated pieces of software in modern times...
The only other games I can think of are minecraft and lbp which is also from media molecule. Even then, those two don't even come close to what this is
When I was younger I was obsessed with the MapMaker tool in the TimeSplitters series and I really pushed the limits of what it was capable of before dragging friends and family to play my creations. I only wish I was younger again to have the time to play something of this magnitude instead.
@@theindiediary5950 It may not be 10 , but definitely a 9+ also for your infoIGN has stopped giving the decimal review scores to the games lately , otherwise we would've seen a 9.5/9.6 for sure 😁
@@Zeegoku1007 The biggest problem with their new review system. Half points actually make a huge difference in how video games are score so a game thats a Near 10 is scaled down to a 9. It means it's going to be harder for some Very special games to stand out
This is a brilliant review and expresses everything that someone might love about Dreams and shows the learning curve. Also the score being made at the end added a nice touch.
I've got a pretty unreliable internet connection, can anyone tell me the size of most creations? How easily can the dreamverse be navigated if you're only getting 500kbps?
@@bbloomfield6497 The only Dreams you would have trouble downloading are the ones that use music/sound made outside Dreams, i.e imported as an .mp3 file. But even then it will only be a question of 6 to 10 seconds instead of 2 seconds. If you do get Dreams then please let us know how it worked out.
For years, a new PlayStation All-Stars has always been my dream and through Dreams, it can finally come true. That's why I'm glad Sony has a company like Media Molecule.

The Avatar game is just one of thousands of reasons to buy it but it IS a great one.
Bought Dreams in early access and absolutely love it. I've made 2 games so far. A claw machine game called Neon Neptunia, a flight challenge game called Asteroid rush, and I'm working on my most ambitious yet, a Souls-like game. If you have any interest whatsoever, buy it. You will not be disappointed!
When I'm able to play it tonight ima check out your claw machine game cause honestly a claw machine game on dreams never even came to my mind and i cant play till midnight sadly😭
@@Rad_11B At the moment the claw machine game might be broken lol. They did an update a while back and it didn't play quite right after that. But I haven't played it for a while so it might have been fixed lol. Give it a shot and let me know if it's working or not. Asteroid Rush I know works tough. You should give that a shot and see if you can get a high score.
@@RiloXRi Thank you. It's called Path of the Ancients. I still have it as private right now cause I'm working out the kinks for the Spider boss fight. But once I get it ironed out I'll let you know when I make it playable!
I'm so happy that Dreams gets the score that it deserves! Being a beta tester, I saw the community rise from absolutely nothing to UNBELIEVEABLE pieces of art. This game is HUGE and it deserves attention.
whateverqws mus Same here. I remember when I first joined the beta back in January last year. Just to see how much the community has grown and all of these amazing projects come to life is absolutely beautiful. It makes me want to go back in and create another game with the community since it’s been awhile
How do you even rate something that doesnt have anything to compare it to? Dreams is unique. Score for this game is meaningless, like ashtray on a motorcycle.
The review fails to mention the sound tools, and this is a major oversight. Inside Dreams is a full digital audio workstation complete with pro features like piano roll. You can play the controller like an instrument. The are thousands of instruments, and sound samples. You can even create your own by recording. This allows anyone to make their own music and sound effects from scratch. As an example, I have published a set of 11 zombie sounds that I created with nothing other than my mouth and the PS4 camera mic. These are sounds that have been used in hundreds of creations already.
I can imagine somebody starting an animated TV series or something in this game 😂😂 Playing through Art’s dream, some parts looked like a straight up animated movie, my mind was absolutely blown. You can make ANYTHING in this game. Your imagination is truly the only limiter.
That's actually my current project in Dreams. I've got a few 2-3 minute animations done and released. (With lip sync and all) But soon I'll be popping out the first episode of a continuing series. But man,Art's Dream was an absolute masterpiece. Can't wait for more Mm created Dreams.
@@victorfernandes83 Play the game before you call it poor little games. Most of the games on there are better than some triple a games, and most indie games.
I urge any new players to stick with the motion controller for a couple of days. It's hard at first, but becomes second nature after that, and everything you play on day one was made that way. Also, IGN - Best review you've put out in a while. Well done.
Sounds like this fits IGN's criteria of what should be considered a 10/10 Masterpiece... But anyways, what a well done review. IGN's video reviews are usually 2:30-5 minutes long with the narration filled of quick dialogue and short sentences.
2 things, in my opinion: 1) Only if that game has online connectivity so you can play other people’s games. (Just like Dreams and Little Big Planet) 2) For every great game you’ll play, you encounter 1,000 turds. That was my experience with LBP at least.
Dreams is the last game for my PS4, all other games, in the future, will be bought to PS5. I won’t have time, I have at least 6 roadmaps for projects that will take months. I can highly recommend this game.
@Bryce Czirr a win nevertheless.. besides..if HZD would do come to PC..it's still gonna be published by Sony..I'm sure people would buy the game and Sony will still earn the money when it sells..
And it's $40 instead of $60. Media Molecule making moves. Sony really needs to market this more.

@@gerablitz I think the reviewer probably said a thousand words in this review, and he was non stop talking about the game, that's something
GeraBlitZ because he wasn’t going off topic and was giving an in-depth analysis as to what the game is and could/will be in the future.
Too often do you see games journalists comparing games to each other and just copying 80% of the original review and just re-naming the subjects of the new game.
Example: “The surge is like dark souls for cyberpunk fans, the game mechanics follow the same rules of dark souls where you pick your battles carefully because its brutal game design makes it so you can’t rush the game as you learn all the enemies mechanics before moving on. The rest points are also like dark souls where you will respawn and restock your healing items and just like dark souls doing so will make the enemies respawn”
Journalists that do that are shitty, they would never talk about the unique aspect of aiming for specific parts of other mechs to break off to use for your own or how in depth the customization of the game goes.
This reporter talked about both the gameplay Dreams creates for you, what you can create with the tools given, it’s limits and capabilities, the making of new developers and studio teams etc.
Thats really important to point out about this game because that’s the stuff that will draw in people that like this style of gaming where everyone can show their skills in their unique ways.
Just like how Minecraft blew up to being one of the biggest video games in history offering no limits to those who made their own mods for anything, or even vanilla creations that have been made in the game.
This journalist could have just called it Minecraft 2 HD and said Minecraft 40x like other journalists say “Souls-like” in their works comparing the 2 games.
"Finally, an IGN reviewer that views line up with my already established views of a video game"
Come back to this, it’s changed so much
It deserves a 2022 review. The community has made some amazing things
This game is amazing because it encourages creativity and appreciating what others have made. I bet the community is gonna be one of the most accepting and respecting out there in like all of society
They are a really cool community!
For anyone who still doesn't know what Dreams is.. it's basicially an engine in which you can create anything you can possibly imagine with very small limitation.. most of the time it's your own imagniation. So you can create your own games, films, art, music & anything in between and beyond or you can play the stuff that others made and there are some indie worthy titles already after 1 year.. a few people aim for making triple A games! Not a single one should miss out on this masterpiece, especially when you are creative =)
I do make videos about Dreams if you would like to learn more about it!
Subbed to your channel, I've been interested in dreams since day one the toolset is astounding. I really really want to make music with it
OP is one of the Quality Dreamer Channel
Check him out you won’t be disappointed hopefully.
So its Garry's mod for playstation?
It's has a huge limitation if what you're imagining is a complex game. For example, you can probably create an existing character like Dante from Devil May Cry, and animate him with some of the same moves, but you can't then fit in multiple enemies with all their battle animations.
@@gwehnuhman7813 the limitations arent within the engine itself it's in the hardware.
Dreams is incredible, that's what it is,
@Mr. Flash "pRoVe iT" look up Dreams-Dead Space and Dreams-Avatar The Last Airbender project.
@Mr. Flash You can create your very own games within a game. Its a very interesting concept but I don't think I'll buy it any time soon because I'm not into sandbox games, maybe in the future.
@Mr. Flash But it is interesting and revolutionary, despite you liking it or not. Its probably one of the biggest sandbox games yet.
@Mr. Flash Its something new and unique, a big sandbox game where you can create games within it, that's why I say that Its interesting.
@Mr. Flash Please define "incredible" from your perspective
Media Molecule had My respect since LBP, Glad to see this n n I'm proud of you, Media Molecule

"Exclusively to Playstation" are no longer valid but its more like "Time Exclusive to playstation". So i might skipping ps5 and upgrade my pc, atleast i can focus on 1 platform and ps4 might be my last sony console if other sony exclusive titles coming to pc.
P.S i bought ps4 to enjoy its exclusive game, now sony releasing their exclusive game to pc, so no point for me to stay on sony platform just like my xbox360 was my last xbox console since their games is on pc too, plus still love my vita for its exclusive title like soul sacrifice Delta, freedom war, uncharted, killzone and etc.

Thats super cool! Well done!
:D
Somebody re-created a level from dead space in this game. Truly incredible
there is also a silent hill and even cup head 3d lol
I saw someone remake an unreleased sonic game in Dreams, complete with an old school filter and everything. I saw something FFVII related that look _very_ polished, hell someone made a full Crash Bandicoot sequel, with 7+ levels. This is insane.
One of my favorite video on what Dreams is and the potential. In my eyes Dreams will inevitably become popular, it's loved by most who even understand just a fraction of what Dreams is. I believe that speaks volumes, when psvr and multiplayer releases there will be no stopping this game popularity, I already see it coming to PS5 its a no Brainer, and if the claims of it coming to PC is true, we have another minecraft level of popularity on our hands.
Project Genesis one of the things I loved most is how someone recreated Dead Space in this.
I really can't see this game living up to the hype, because if it does it actually would change gaming forever. I wouldn't agree with your statement about minecraft level of popularity. If this actually lives up to the hype, it will by far exceed minecraft's popularity and could exceed the popularity of consoles themselves. And that is why I just don't see this game being that deep, it still seems too early.
Why not a perfect 10? This "game" is an absolute master piece.
Even Fortnite has a higher rating which doesn't make any sense. How is a game where you jump from a bus and kill people be better than a game where you can do everything you could imagine?
Yeah because LittleBigPlanet 2 deserves 8.4/10
@ I don't fking care. Game is game.
@@samsungtab3977 ikr ign be dumb sometimes
This is SO original. Looks like media molecule has made a once in a lifetime experience. It's like little big planet on the biggest acid trip, then finding out you're the creator all along that can make anything! Man. Glad to hear and see all these amazing things people made!
This looks more like a masterpiece to me. I think it will shape this decade's entertainment.
Data Insighter this game is going to do a lot for the gaming industry and might even be the next Minecraft but it has some funky control layouts at the moment but that won’t hold it back at all that’s just what I think held it back from that perfect score
Not if it stays as a playstation exclusive, that's for sure.
Hopefully ps5 has it as a launch title. It's got its own 100+ library of games. They'd be crazy not to
@@Ghandpivot playstation is shitting on xbox globally though...
Except the fact that it is ps4 exclusive
9! Tell him he's dreamin - the castle
How's the serenity
?
That's going straight in the pool room!
It should get the 10/10 imo. It's probably the most ambitious game ever created💜💜💜
Ya unreal engine looks awesome on ps4
its not an engine if you can create music in it dumbass. take your lame jokes to reddit
@@lampzhade Why? Difficult to control?
@@lampzhade I was iffy on it early on but I jumped back into it around a month ago and idk if the game became better at curating but as far as just playing things, I have found so many amazing experiences.
It's worth giving it another shot.
I'd say that title is better suited for Star Citizen. This is the most ambitious creative tool ever made on console.
This really should be game of the decade....is it the best graphics? No. best sound? No....but it is so much much more than that....and the idea that it is 99.9% user generated...this is one of the most unique and underrated pieces of software in modern times...
this is really something else for the gaming scene and proof that gaming can even become art.
My dad used to say games are the reason creativity is dropping
*just wait till he sees this*
It deserves a 10/10 there's no other game out there that's this ambitious dude
Nah that's only Nintendo bro.
Star Citizen
The only other games I can think of are minecraft and lbp which is also from media molecule. Even then, those two don't even come close to what this is
Credit to Sony for not getting rid of Media Molecule. I'm happy that the game they wanted to make is finally out.
The real resean this game didn’t have 10/10 is because its hard to recreate that score on dreams, and 9 is more easier.
Zeltro Yup; and we all know that Fortnite got a higher rating than games like Hollow Knight.
Zeltro fortnite bad upvotes to the left
I still don't understand why that game still makes fun. All you do is jumping down from a floating bus and kill people.
Samsung Tab 3 if you simplify every game like that then of course it doesn't sound fun
@@ohnoknux4163 That's without details
IGN 8 months ago: Dream is a nightmare and bound to fail.
IGN now: Dream is high ambitious and magically brought to life.
When I was younger I was obsessed with the MapMaker tool in the TimeSplitters series and I really pushed the limits of what it was capable of before dragging friends and family to play my creations. I only wish I was younger again to have the time to play something of this magnitude instead.
Should be 10 and game of the year.
He didn't seem to have a bad word to say about it. I was surprised it wasn't a perfect 10.
@@theindiediary5950
It may not be 10 , but definitely a 9+ also for your infoIGN has stopped giving the decimal review scores to the games lately , otherwise we would've seen a 9.5/9.6 for sure 😁
@@Zeegoku1007 The biggest problem with their new review system. Half points actually make a huge difference in how video games are score so a game thats a Near 10 is scaled down to a 9.
It means it's going to be harder for some Very special games to stand out
Just buy it. It’s awesome. It reminds me of the old days of Flash games
Crazy thing is within a month it'll be so much more
Dylan Van Leuven a month? The older this game became becomes. The better it will be
The most ambitious game in existence is not getting enough attention, its sad. I can't wait to play and create.
Why would you say that? Look at the comments!
Lol you just know that there will be contracted AAA professionals if there aren't already who will create anonymously for fun with this.
The quality of some of the stuff that's already there is worthy of being sold in the pan store.

Yes you can.

if you weren't born with all your parts you can make those
That’s the problem ..why a girl friend? Try a woman friend.
This is a brilliant review and expresses everything that someone might love about Dreams and shows the learning curve. Also the score being made at the end added a nice touch.
Dreams makes me feel like I haven't played a Great Game in a while, until now.
Dreams deserves the 9. As an early access player I can’t say it without a doubt amazing
Best game i've ever played.
I've got a pretty unreliable internet connection, can anyone tell me the size of most creations? How easily can the dreamverse be navigated if you're only getting 500kbps?
@B Bloomfield All the creations sizes are very very small. I'd imagine it would be fine.
@@bbloomfield6497 The only Dreams you would have trouble downloading are the ones that use music/sound made outside Dreams, i.e imported as an .mp3 file. But even then it will only be a question of 6 to 10 seconds instead of 2 seconds.
If you do get Dreams then please let us know how it worked out.
As someone with no wi fi capabilities on my ps4 can I still enjoy this game offline??
For years, a new PlayStation All-Stars has always been my dream and through Dreams, it can finally come true. That's why I'm glad Sony has a company like Media Molecule.
This might be the first IGN review that I actually enjoyed and didnt want to senselessly beat the reviewer.
The first game I’ve ever preordered

Spider man and this, can’t wait
Nice

You may think this is over exaggerating but Dreams may be an important step if not then the most important step on gaming and human revolution.
Explain
While I do think it's a great game and design tool, I think that is a very large overexageration.
Slow down sparky
@@spartan-0295 I mean there is potential within the technology for usage outside of gaming, I don't think Dreams itself though is the main step.

The Avatar game is just one of thousands of reasons to buy it but it IS a great one.
This is the most underrated game of the year.
To anyone reading this who doesn’t already have the game, it’s on sale for $10 right now.
Easily the most ambitious game ever made. If you're on the fence, you need to pick this one up. Also, I made that Patrick at 7:24!
Did you really because I played that one just today
@@MrPretzel6000
I made the Patrick specifically, yeah. But I didn't make the actual cutscene with spongebob and squidward and all that.
The second most ambitious. You forgot Flight Simulator.
Who you callin pin head Larry??
Bought Dreams in early access and absolutely love it. I've made 2 games so far. A claw machine game called Neon Neptunia, a flight challenge game called Asteroid rush, and I'm working on my most ambitious yet, a Souls-like game. If you have any interest whatsoever, buy it. You will not be disappointed!
When I'm able to play it tonight ima check out your claw machine game cause honestly a claw machine game on dreams never even came to my mind and i cant play till midnight sadly😭
Ive been wondering if anybody has been trying to make a souls like game on dreams. You sir just caught my interest
@@RiloXRi be sure to check out the level by tototidopa, called "Akaoni"
@@Rad_11B At the moment the claw machine game might be broken lol. They did an update a while back and it didn't play quite right after that. But I haven't played it for a while so it might have been fixed lol. Give it a shot and let me know if it's working or not. Asteroid Rush I know works tough. You should give that a shot and see if you can get a high score.
@@RiloXRi Thank you. It's called Path of the Ancients. I still have it as private right now cause I'm working out the kinks for the Spider boss fight. But once I get it ironed out I'll let you know when I make it playable!
I'm so happy that Dreams gets the score that it deserves! Being a beta tester, I saw the community rise from absolutely nothing to UNBELIEVEABLE pieces of art. This game is HUGE and it deserves attention.
whateverqws mus Same here. I remember when I first joined the beta back in January last year. Just to see how much the community has grown and all of these amazing projects come to life is absolutely beautiful. It makes me want to go back in and create another game with the community since it’s been awhile

Media Molecule: So what's this game about?
Interviewer: wait what?!
Sony: wait what?!
Sony on roll with their exclusive, other consoles dream of being PS
C'mon.... we all know this game is 10/10 anything else is nitpicking.
How do you even rate something that doesnt have anything to compare it to?
Dreams is unique. Score for this game is meaningless, like ashtray on a motorcycle.
Nope, you are nitpicking and biased i win bye bye
@@umersalman1 not only that, it has nothing by itself, is a little demo with a tool to create. You can rated it as a tool i guess.
@@umersalman1 exactly, how do you rate a game where you can create your ideal 10/10 game a 9 out of 10? Lol
10 means this game cannot simply improve
Glad I bought the early access, I never tried making but I enjoy playing what other people made!
Altough it was a creator early access and the point of it was to create content for the start🤔

@@xtojump1468 but the point of the early access was to create content for the official release hahaha.
Yeah... but it was cheaper to get Early Access 😂 and I was super hyped to play stuff, so that’s why I bought it
Marco Cardoni If i have early access how do i get the full game
It has a little something for everyone. Literally.
"It really makes you FEEL like a game developer."
The review fails to mention the sound tools, and this is a major oversight. Inside Dreams is a full digital audio workstation complete with pro features like piano roll. You can play the controller like an instrument. The are thousands of instruments, and sound samples. You can even create your own by recording. This allows anyone to make their own music and sound effects from scratch. As an example, I have published a set of 11 zombie sounds that I created with nothing other than my mouth and the PS4 camera mic. These are sounds that have been used in hundreds of creations already.
They also said they are working on making it work for PSVR.
What about using keyboard and mouse?
THE COMMENTS CHANNEL it probably won’t come to pc but they might have you use mouse and keyboard. Idk.
And multiplayer 👀
@@thecommentschannel3548 They added keyboard support but not mouse support so it may feel really weird lol
I thought I heard rumblings of PC eventual release.
LittleBigPlanet 1 is THE best Sony exclusive ever. Can't wait to play another gem from Media Molecule.
Lbp 2 was a master piece too
All LBP games
Well, besides 3 and Karting. We don't talk about those
Every LBP besides Karting and 3 were amazing, but the first one is one of the greatest games ever made.
This game is very much worth the $40 price tag just for the player creations alone! Day 1 buy for me!
How did this not get a 10 ?
I can imagine somebody starting an animated TV series or something in this game 😂😂 Playing through Art’s dream, some parts looked like a straight up animated movie, my mind was absolutely blown. You can make ANYTHING in this game. Your imagination is truly the only limiter.
That's actually my current project in Dreams.
I've got a few 2-3 minute animations done and released. (With lip sync and all)
But soon I'll be popping out the first episode of a continuing series.
But man,Art's Dream was an absolute masterpiece.
Can't wait for more Mm created Dreams.
My most anticipated game of this year by far.
Way to go PlayStation, another great and creative "game". Best exclusives hands down.

@@UndercoverSpill
$30 like everyone else lol
muchohumpty the more players the more creations. It really is the people’s game.
I urge any new players to stick with the motion controller for a couple of days. It's hard at first, but becomes second nature after that, and everything you play on day one was made that way.
Also, IGN - Best review you've put out in a while. Well done.
Sounds like this fits IGN's criteria of what should be considered a 10/10 Masterpiece...
But anyways, what a well done review. IGN's video reviews are usually 2:30-5 minutes long with the narration filled of quick dialogue and short sentences.
Change my mind: The make your own game genre is the best genre
2 things, in my opinion:
1) Only if that game has online connectivity so you can play other people’s games. (Just like Dreams and Little Big Planet)
2) For every great game you’ll play, you encounter 1,000 turds. That was my experience with LBP at least.
Fair points.
Lowest score so far i've seen is 9, it's an amazing game.
IGN 9/10
“too many dreams”
mind you some of the STUNNING games made on dreams are probably created by one person. Then you have a full house studio who created crackdown 3 lol
You are wrong. Dreams has been in development for 8 years to give one person the ability to even create a game without coding.
M-dlg 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What stopped it from getting a 10?
Dreams is the last game for my PS4, all other games, in the future, will be bought to PS5. I won’t have time, I have at least 6 roadmaps for projects that will take months. I can highly recommend this game.
That's what happens when developers promise you the world, and deliver! You take that, Peter Molyneux! Yaay Dreams do come true!
Basically all the Mm founders (other than siobhan) are actually ex bullfrog/lionhead devs. Mark Healey did all of the art for dungeon keeper.
