Disney Dreamlight Valley Needs A Kingdom Hearts Star Path

Star Paths are the bread and butter of Disney Dreamlight Valley. I’ll admit that I abandon the villagers in-game each few weeks, however I come again to examine what’s new, say just a few hellos, and decide up new collectibles each replace.

The Dreamlight Parks Fest occasion ties into the Day at Disney Star Path so completely, combining occasion duties with park-themed rewards and quests to construct your personal Disney Park, that I do not see why we shouldn’t have a Kingdom Hearts themed occasion sooner or later. I imply, simply think about it!

Hear Me Out: Kingdom Hearts Musou

Kingdom Hearts has experimented with genres earlier than, so why not a musou sport?

Whereas information has been quiet this 12 months for the Kingdom Hearts neighborhood – with the one actual updates being in regards to the second spherical of Lacking Hyperlink’s closed beta testing – a Star Path in Dreamlight Valley might tide us over. Characters like Mickey, Donald, and Goofy have already got numerous outfits you’ll be able to unlock, and it wouldn’t be an excessive amount of of a stretch so as to add their Kingdom Hearts ensembles together with visitor characters like Sora, Riku, and Kairi.

Star Paths function furnishings, outfits, and motifs impressed by the seasonal theme, and I’ve spent an excessive amount of time attempting to acquire all the things in case sooner or later I need to use all of them. Gameloft might add Sora’s outfit, the enduring Kingdom Hearts emblem and crown as motifs, and a displayable Keyblade or two into the combination for starters. I might dream up a dozen different concepts for Star Path rewards, however the actual enchantment is within the potential character interactions.

Disney Dreamlight Valley focuses on reconnecting to your internal baby and constructing healthful relationships with the villagers. Sora is understood for his naivety and innocence, at all times seeing the great earlier than the unhealthy. In a village the place heroes and villains reside in concord, I can consider no higher addition to the valley if Gameloft have been to department out past conventional Disney IPs.

We’ve seen it already with the addition of Oswald, the Fortunate Rabbit. His look within the Epic Mickey franchise solidified his place as a beloved Disney character, and Sora deserves the identical therapy. There’s no purpose that Dreamlight Valley can’t be one more world that every one characters go to — and I’m positive Tetsuya Nomura might discover some strategy to make Sora’s look canon.

Evening Thorns aren’t so totally different from the darkness in Kingdom Hearts. There’s no purpose for why Mickey can’t recall occasions from the video games or Goofy doesn’t inform tales about his adventures. Donald already exaggerates about his feats throughout most quests, so just a few tall tales from his journeys to different worlds isn’t surprising.

Dreamlight Valley acknowledges the Right here and There as a separate world and Vanellope von Schweetz confirms the simultaneous existence of the Valleyverse — an interconnected community of all gamers’ valleys. It sounds an terrible lot like how Kingdom Hearts handles totally different worlds throughout its canon, and the franchise isn’t any stranger to crossovers.

Extra unconventional collaborations have occurred in gaming historical past. Whereas some argue that crossovers have to make sense, that’s not at all times the case. I by no means anticipated to position bets on whether or not Isabelle from Animal Crossing might finest Sephiroth in a battle, however right here we’re with Tremendous Smash Bros. Final. Disney Dreamlight Valley is within the place to stroll the road between weird and exquisite.

My love for Disney is barely crushed by my love for Kingdom Hearts. The sheer variety of hours I spent drawing the characters, designing alternate appears to be like, and discussing theories all through my childhood is difficult to fathom. Disney Dreamlight Valley at the moment lacks any references to Kingdom Hearts, and it’s my solely actual criticism in regards to the sport. Lacking such a big a part of my childhood in a sport about reconnecting with it feels legal.

A sequence of quests might clarify why Sora is or isn’t current within the sport, relying on how far Gameloft takes issues. Regardless, the rewards from a Star Path are sometimes sufficient to attract in a crowd and encourage valley rulers to submit their customized designs and village layouts on-line. It could be a missed alternative to look over the inclusion of Kingdom Hearts in Dreamlight Valley.
