They want creators early so that they'll have content for the general release, that's why they're doing it.
It is a surprisingly good deal, though.

Bingo. By the time Dreams fully released people would have full access to lots of cool shit no need to wait. Infinite Games for you to choose.
I know why are they doing it. I just dont get why is it so cheap. It base game is going to be like 50 or 60.it shouldnt be less than 40 but hey, sony knows what to do.
This is a 50% rebate on the game before it even launches. The quantities are limited. Expect this to sell out in minutes.

theyre not finish. They are in the process of trying to add more territories
The communication from MM has been very poor. There are people that still believe its the full game.

Iit says creator early access how do people think it's the full game.
Did you mean to quote someone else. I already know its not the full game but lots of people seem confused about the whole thing.

This will probably be an invaluable way of building hype for the full release and ensure there's a ton of content ready fir the proper launch. It seems like they really are treating it like a proper Early Access release, which are typically priced lower to entice people at an early stage while the game is still in development.
I'm thinking more of the person earlier in the thread that said they're going to get the discount and then let the game sit in their backlog until the full release.
Some absolutely amazing things came out of the beta which had less people and less time than the EA. It will be exciting to see what comes out before the full launch.

Nope. Just spring 2019. Maybe when we get closer they'll announce it
this game got the best creation tools in the world,and countless stories that players created,the only thing missing is its own story...lol
You'll get the full game eventually for your 30 bucks. It's more or less a 50% off pre-order.
Of course it's not the full game but when the full game launches you get it at no additional charge.
Why quote me? I was mocking the people that can't read the blog post and the title clearly named 'Early Access' lol
I'm quoting you because you're replying to the guy who quoted me with "reading is hard apparently"

Gonna snag a copy as soon as it drops, can't wait to play around.
What? Never mind lets just drop this, this getting way too confusing lol

Unless they come out and say the full retail price of the game, I'm pretty sure anyone interested in Dreams is going to try and buy it when it's up.
It's kind of a weird dilemma. As far as what I plan to do with Dreams, the this creator early access isn't "for me" but if I can spend $30 now and get the full game when it's out then why wouldn't I try to get this.
Should have said "I'm in on day one" to make things clearer, haha.
I really don't understand why they'd opt to create "scarcity" with a digital product? My only assumption is to increase the prestige of streams and videos in the lead up to launch. As more people create more "PT Recreated in Dreams" videos and such that go viral, more people will become interested, which in of itself--becomes the marketing cycle for the game. Kind of ingenious considering how most people's problem with the game stems from the messaging, leading to the obvious "What exactly is Dreams?" question (or meme, if we're being honest.)
But you'd think it'd be better to let someone see that video, become interested in the product and immediately be able to dive in and purchase rather than have to wait an arbitrary amount of time--but who knows. Unless I'm misunderstanding the messaging here?

I'm assuming they are making this a limited release to increase demand, especially when creations starts getting shown by content creators on YouTube, Twitch, etc.
Regardless, I'll try to pick up a copy. I've kept my eye on Dreams for a while so I'm interested in seeing what I can create with it.
