    Honestly, I respect MMs decision. I think more studios look at the money and big names in the industry for support and sacrifice creative endeavors in the process. It's nice to know that MM moved on because they wanted to shatter new boundaries, and I expect new titles from them to exceed expectations of what a video game should be

    LONG PASSIONATE POST BELOW:
    What a terrible mistake. Littlebigplanet was lightning in a bottle filled of love that Dreams will never be able to match. Dream’s sole mission was creating a decentralized, low-ish level game development tool. This is a neat, somewhat-noble concept but in actuality it’s not something people actually resonate with past the conceptual level. Lbps create tools might be more limited but the overall effect is so much more powerful than dreams. The limited nature of lbp’s create tools forced creative uses, it kept things delightfully playful, and lbps multiplayer features allowed people to build something together and created real friendships. You’d want to build levels just to show your online friends in lbp. Everything about lbp was just magic and dreams is just not. It’s more like a more complex, amorphous husk of what lbp was. I think that’s why dreams has been a flop and lbp is still adored to this day. Dreams wanted to be everything lbp was and more, but media molecule failed to realize the perfect, *perfect* and harmonious balance they struck with “play.create.share.” in lbp.

    • @worldmetallady
      @worldmetallady Год назад +4

      Agreed. And also Mm were the ones who sold Lbp to other companies (Tarsier, Sumo, The Station, etcetera) so if anything Mm is partially guilty of killing/butchering the franchise

      I don't want to trash Dreams since I haven't really gotten a chance to play it, but I will say that visually I hate how everything in that game looks. Like no matter how impressive the project, visually everything in Dreams just looks cheap and shoddy. LittleBigPlanet's "handcrafted" aesthetic naturally provides better theming and is more charming to look at, no matter the quality of the level.

    lbp art style is unreplacable one of the most underrated games of all time
    I'll never experience new games with similar nostalgic soundtracks, unique levels and memorable characters.
    media molcule were unique no one can replace them, i hope sumo digital is a good studio, they might be better but it's going to be a different series not the lbp that i loved
    it's sad that Mm chose this direction, i will never forgive them for this.

    I can only hope that they return one last time for a final game. LBP3 was just so buggy and Sackboy's big adventure doesn't really feel like a LBP game. It just needs one grand finale to lay this lovable franchise to rest.

    If only lbp3 wasnt a hot buggy mess. I (and lbp1/2 players) would have actually taken in its beauty and charm. Lbp3 was really a well made sequel and stuck to what made lbp special, but its buggy nature is what cemented it as a trash game in the franchise. Shame we got the timeline we did. Saba is salt on the wound at this point since that game has it's own major flaws

      SABA’s a spinoff that was never meant to replace LBP. It’s an awesome 3D platformer That does represent where the main series could go. If you don’t see it as an LBP game, it’s really fun.

    • @carlwaffle
      @carlwaffle 2 года назад

      Not gonna lie it also felt like LBP3 took the magic away, I'm not the best with words but there is something about the auto-saving, the extra layers, and the new playable characters that feels a tad like a slap in the face. Not intentionally of course, but there was always a sense of Awe when a new glitch or bug was found and turned into a very useful feature for creators.
      However when implemented officially for LBP3, it doesn't work. The auto-save feature soft locked the story mode of my main account (the swamp level hub area was I guess under great pressure and broke), and due to the way it works saves backups of levels you've played to your Play station (mine was 3) which took up space I didn't need taken up. The extra layers is cool but it's so easy to misplace what layer your on (i have the least issues with this, I jus don't like it). The characters feel unneeded. Cool designs and all but Sackboy already had it covered, he's a jack of all trades. Flight? Jetpack, bounce pads, low gravity, or a creation. Fast? Launch him, bounce pad, or a creation. Heavy or light? Make him carry/drop something with the grabinators, bouncepad, or a creation. In situations where people needed to create other creatures, they would just make them and get around the problem.
