Everything You Need to Know about Dreams.

I think you're underestimating what people will create with this. What people have already created with this within the confines of a relatively short beta period. All the game needs is some really cool/funny/exciting Dreams to make waves, and given that it's the first and biggest Mm game to hit during the era of streaming, I'm sure it will get on fine.
Are you in the beta? If you aren't right now and you get in soon, check out the content and reconsider your points.
I feel like it's just a natural outcome of their vision. It's been no secret that the greater part of making Dreams was making the creation tools, since they have to rely entire on them to create their game content rather than any internal dev tools. They can either hold back the release for 8 months, and I believe that's a generous estimate, to build an expansive 8 hour+ experience with what is essentially final, releasable code or get it in players' hands to get that flow of content creation going. There's almost no doubt that Media Molecule couldn't match even 1/10 of the community output once people get experienced with the tools, just by sheer numbers. And I do mean only counting quality content.
Most close betas have a preorder incentive attached to it where you're 100% guaranteed to get in.
Got to hand it to Sony to make beta periods even shorter after extension
I assume this will be a GaaS. So I hope Mm continues to provide their own content for us to play so the day one 'on disc' content wont reflect the full content - a bit like GT Sport is doing now
That one is easy. I've been putting some collections together but unlike other people, I've been very very picky. Just check my channel out if you get in. My collection is in no way 'the best' of course, and only represents what I consider the cream of the crop in terms of art and concept. I just think you're likely to at least see something that will blow your mind there, taking the time frame for these creations into consideration. They're wonderful. Start with Blue Marble Adventure.
Great Thanks. Is your PSN name the same?
I'm in the beta still playing through the tutorials but the tools are amazing so far.
a few more hours leading up to great disappointment. but dont give up hopes. if not today. next week
Go to Dreamsurfing and sort by most liked. You'll hit all the highlights that way.
Haha! Yep! Even if I don't get in, I do appreciate you all that are in the beta who are posting in here. It's good to see that the community will hopefully be strong at launch and the details you all are providing ( without getting in trouble of course) are exciting to read.
It's GribbleGrunger unfortunately :( I much prefer Loudmouse but we can't have everything!
*sigh* Nothing. Again.
Guess I'll have to fucking wait til fucking Wednesday.
And watch me not get one then, either.

Well I got annoying irl work stuff done... now the whole weekend for dreams.
I'm a little annoyed that I can't figure out some of this animation stuff. I've been really struggling with understanding the basic rules. Like, why sometimes elements in my keyframes will be stuck (as if referencing edits made to past keyframes) on my timeline despite making every effort to isolate the current keyframe I'm working with. And why does it only happen randomly? I can create 4 - 5 frames without issue, but then suddenly in the next frames I cannot move elements because they're behaving as if there's a positional conflict. An hour or two into an animation timeline and I basically have to scrap it, because the model I'm trying to animate becomes stuck/janked/unresponsive seemingly randomly. I really need to figure this out. I've published very little because of these issues. And I really love animation and think it's something I'm good at. I would love to remix some of these popular characters on dreamiverse with cool attacks, poses, jumps, etc... but it's one step forward two steps back atm.

are you talking about just puppet animation? yeah. i had that issue when i was first trying to animate stuff.
I started with character gameplay animation. Basically nesting keyframes into the puppet logic. Only to realize I don't really have the logic chops to isolate these contextually layered animations. It's a little embarrassing but I guess I need a refresher on boolean. So I switched to animating characters on timelines. No logic to consider. But even then I'm having weirdness. Idk. I'm going to keep messing with it, hoping a "Oh that's how it works" light bulb goes off soon.
Did any of you NA people who got in happen to use an email during signup that was different from the email linked to your PSN?
It's why I gave up on it. I have absolutely no experience with animating. I just sensed a lack of structure as I was progressing, as if the game suddenly said 'nope, not this time'.
Monday for the folks in the EU, Wednesday for NA - I think?
I doubt there's a correlation here, but has anyone received a code for this who also never gets those discount coupons from the Playstation newsletter?

That is very nice of them but I think there is something wrong with my beta application. I accidentally inputted the wrong real name. I guess I will have to wait until the game launches. :(
check spam. because sony's known to send out plenty of "promo" emails and people just mark it as spam**me checking my mail**
