Ok, I haven’t played the new update yet, but I can already see Jack Skellington becoming fixated on the valley just as much as Christmas.
The valley proves to be just as enchanting as Christmas Town was to him all those years ago, all of the sights and sounds, the lovely people, your traditions, all of it!
He even makes friends with the night thorns, keeping some in jars for decor or his own little experiments.
He spends his time in the castle library reading about the others and their stories, fascinated by the way things work and you in particular since it seems you’re the ruler.
He sees you as an equal and thinks you’ll be able to relate to him from a leadership perspective, so he opens up to you and even asks for advice. Sometimes he thinks you can speak on behalf of all your “subjects,” which is something you can’t always do ^^; (unless you’re evil, then let him think that you can)
He’s particularly fond of the late night walks, and will most certainly offer to accompany you if he sees you wandering around in the moonlight on your lonesome.
His fascination with the valley also extends to the world beyond it, yours included.
He’s not used to seeing animals with all their fur, or bodies for that matter. The humans that wander around are so vibrant and saturated, and the plants don’t bloom pre-withered! Interesting indeed.
One thing Jack never tires of his stories. He loves a good parable, and if you ask nicely he’ll tell you some of his own. He’d even read to you, if that’s what you wanted.
He’s especially kind to the little critters that like to run around, if you’ve tamed one it’ll make a great playmate for Zero.
Upon seeing the fashion others choose to wear he starts asking Sally to make him a few new outfits, and of course she obliges. She definitely had help though, since Minnie would never let a girl struggle on her own like that. Sal was pleased as punch, and they’ve been best friends ever since.

I knew it. Jafar - He took the Spark, and left with it... I should have tried to stop him.. but if the Spark is as powerful as Merlin and I believe... Well... I might not have been able to do much of anything.

I’m generally surprised there’s basically no angsty stuff for ddv. Like there’s SO much potential, Mickey’s missing wife, memory loss, loneliness, lost hope, guilt, etc! Like ESPECIALLY the mc, they literally abandoned & forgot about their kingdom full of people who are trapped, lost some/a lot of their memories, people being gone (not dead but you can get them back), not to mention the condition the valley itself is in when you get there. The player’s gonna feel a whole lot of guilt for what they did, possibly trying to overwork themselves due to them trying to “make up for it” (they’re already doing enough to make up for it). They do this to the point that everyone’s incredibly concerned for their wellbeing (including the villains!), so when someone finds the ruler passed out the ones who have been there longer would nonchalantly would carry them/find someone to carry them to their house while the newer ones would be very confused as to why they’re so nonchalant about their ruler being passed out (maybe even dead). The last part would hilarious but the rest is just pure angst.

Nintendo Switch: DDLV-A Rift In Time...Part 2!
This DLC is one of the first times as a gamer, that there was maybe too much to do from extra content. Even with finishing part 1, and waiting for part 2, I find I either have time for the valley or the isle and not both. But part 2 is here!
Tumblr media
The Spark Of Imagination: We do get to know a couple of things from the Teaser. The hourglass tool has more updates coming, the narrative continues, and Oswald The Lucky Rabbit joins you! I can't wait to place his house in my valley in my business district!
Tumblr media
So, for any players with both a free and paid update-here is a separate post for the paid update. Your mission starts with Merlin. I won't say too much for spoilers, but I found the mission that continues the story to be a good use of characters. Good puzzles too. And I am so excited for Oswald! He feels like one of the more thought out characters.
Next update comes in the Summer for The Rift In Time. It typically comes after a star path or two, who has played this already? Did anyone buy the update now that there is two parts to it to play?

// Okay, but the fact that Adam/Beast has a flower stall / greenhouse in DDLV makes me so happy. I'm just imagining this big scary dude tending to flowers because it makes him happy and calm.
Tumblr media
Also, the fact that Ursula's alternate form is in the game-- GIMME ADAM'S HUMAN FORM PLEASE. THE MAN IS SO STRESSED OUT BEING A BIG CREATURE. HE DESERVES TO BE HAPPY.

Imagine Felix helping you craft stuff to decorate your plaza with, occasionally giving his ideas on what metal should be used for the streetlights, what pavement would look good with the natural greenery, etc! Ralph is no good at crafting but to make things easier for you he does a lot of the heavy lifting and furniture moving. Feel free to make the boys some gooseberry pie for all their hard work, they’re gonna need the stamina.

Living with Sulley Headcanons (Dreamlight Valley AU)
A/N: I know he’s gonna be in game sooner or later I can feel it in my bones! For now take these fluffy headcanons. They can be interpreted as romantic or platonic, your choice!
After a wonderful wedding hosted in the grandiose castle in Dreamlight Valley, Mike and Celia are finally hitched!
It’s a joyous day for everyone, especially Mike now that he’s going to be moving in with his schmoopsy-poo.
James is happy for him, of course, his best friend is finally getting married! But that means the house will be rather empty without that punky little eyeball around.
So, while Mike and Celia are on their honeymoon you assure Sullivan that he can come over whenever he likes, in case the loneliness is too much for him.
He denies the accusation at first, some of that tough guy attitude he had in college still floating around in his psyche.
“Me? Lonely? Psh, c’mon, if anything I’m happy to finally get the place to myself.”
But that proves to be not true since he’s knocking on your door not even a day later, rubbing the back of his neck as he asks if he can stay in one of your spare rooms.
You can’t help but find his shyness amusing, and of course you let him in.
He tries to make idle conversation as you finish up preparing dinner, he’s still going on about the fact that the electricity here is “made of magic,” as Merlin so eloquently explained to him a few days prior.
You cooked enough to have leftovers for tomorrow, but with James P. Sullivan at the table… Yeah, good luck.
He’s a decent roommate in spite of the shedding.
He’ll kill the bugs around the house, rearrange your rooms if you ask him to, he washes the dishes himself when he’s done eating, he’s a nice guy.
If you’re afraid of something, anything, he’ll protect you from it.
If you’re scared of thunder he’ll let you into his room and hold you close, his dense arms muffling the sounds outside. If you’re scared of the dark and the power goes out he’ll carry you around as you light all the candles around the house.
When Mike and Celia finally get back from their vacation, Sulley truthfully doesn’t want to leave, but he can’t let that house you crafted for him go to waste.
He thanks you for letting him stay, and you thank him for being an excellent mattress and tell him that he’s welcome to come back anytime.
Needless to say, he treats your house like a second home.

Oswald and I made it out okay.. but the damage was already done. I spoke with Merlin - The real Merlin.. We came to the conclusion that Jafar knows as little about the Spark as we do... Maybe even less. He doesn't know how to wield it. For now, Eternity Isle may be safe.. we just have to figure out how to get the Spark back before Jafar does something worse than this.

Merlin and I are on the hunt for the Spark of Imagination! If it's as powerful as we think, we have got to get our hands on it before Jafar does.

With Oswald's help, I got to the Spark of Imagination - I wasn't sure what I was going to do with it.. I just knew I needed to keep it safe from Jafar.. and I was so close, too...

Last night, Gaston, Rapunzel, EVE, Merlin and I managed to enter the ancient ruins on Eternity Isle. We got into the trap door in the center. The Spark of Imagination was inside- along with one very special friend!

Disney Dreamlight Valley: Live Update!
So I was debating whether or not to make this it's own post or combine it and this is too good to sit on, so it is solo and wonderful! That was one of the best lives I have ever seen in a long ass time.
DDLV First Live: So, on 10/27 the developers posted something that said: December 5th the game leaves early access, game will remain pay to play, A Rift In Time paid expansion pass is coming, updates to come, and multiplayer features. The live event explaining more is on 11/1.
Tumblr media
Let's do a quick recap:
Update #5
Update #4
Update #3
Update #2
Update #1
Base Game
Late 2023:
New Characters: Gaston, Rapunzel, Eve, Jafar/Jack Skellington, Mike Wazowski, and more?
New Frontiers: Eternity Isle (Ancient Landing, Glittering Dunes, Wild Tangle)
Multiplayer: Confirmed
New Royal Tool: Hourglass
Tumblr media
From the Live, here are some other bombs that were dropped:
Music available for download/streaming
Founder Rewards
$30 Paid Expansion-DDLV A Rift In Time 12/5/2023
Mobile Expansion to Apple
New in game features: play with villagers, ancient machines, and more?
Tumblr media
2023 (What's left of it anyway)
Update #6: Jack Skellington from Nightmare Before Christmas and Valley Verse with your friends (aka their multiplayer). I imagine Jack will be a door, even if we don't have Sally yet-maybe we get her eventually? Him coming in for christmas is perfect timing based on his movie. The multiplayer seems like its going to be very Animal Crossing like. December 5,2023 is when this is available.
Paid Expansion #1: Explore Eternity Isle, another valley like area, with 3 new biomes and 3 new characters: Gaston, Rapunzel, and Eve. New biomes means more storage needs. December 5,2023 is when this is available for $30.
2024
Update #7: We have Mike Wazowski coming from Monsters Inc! Another door in your castle, save up your dreamlight. I think this is available in the Winter 2023/Spring 2024 time.
Update #8: A vibrant villager comes in, between the image and the reference, I think we get Daisy Duck-Donald's better half! I don't know where I am going to put her, or if she just stays with donald? This comes Early Spring 2024.
Paid Expansion #2: In one of our new biomes we expand our story and get a lucky character? IS IT OSWALD THE LUCKY RABBIT? AAAAAH. This is available Spring 2024.
Update #9: There is a new door, a dynasty reference? I am guessing it is Mulan. I am kind of excited for more princesses in the group. This is available late spring 2024.
Update #10: Tia from The Princess and The Frog is coming! More cooking, and more girl power. I wonder if this is the start of a trend and I should have an area just for power women? This is available summer 2024.
Paid Expansion #3: We finish the story in our new area and right all the wrongs! I wonder if Jafar is our friend at this point? This is available Summer 2024.
Well, I did not think I missed that many nuggets of information. But I found them all for you, get ready to get excited people! What bit are you most excited for? Excuse me, my valley is not ready for all you wonderful people yet.

Nintendo Switch: DDLV Update 3!
This game is doing so many things right. I could of waited to play for free but I am glad I did not. Game has been a slow burn so far. I am anxiously awaiting the next update after finishing The Lion King Update! 
Tumblr media
My last post (https://www.tumblr.com/orphancookie69/707635347789692928/nintendo-switch-ddv-update-2) if you want to see where have been before we talk about where we are going. Some cool things that got released from the last update that I did not talk about were pets, gliding, and path correction. The pets were probably my favorite! 
Early June: There is much talk online in Facebook Groups about Fairy God Mother coming, and cinderella being one of the options for “a princess races in”. I am rooting more for venelope but the disney universe is so giant these days, the options are endless. Jack and Sally were talked about and honestly, with the next update being about the “Forgetting” it would of been fitting. A major story progression is coming, the “forgetting” is the great mystery at the core of what happened to your valley, and you. Some non story updates coming: umbrellas, multiple houses, and mannequins with outfits. Love love love. 
Summer Update: Besides a visual confirmation, I hope the next newbie is Venelope! I think the creativity thing they are alluding to is the ability to make designs, I have seen a video where you change the design on your bed sheets in your house. Can you imagine a design competition? 
September: FINALLY GIVE ME BELLE (and Beast please?). A new realm, finally a new door to open. The starpath goes from Disney turning 100 (back) to darkness. If we deal with darkness in June, how does it come back in September? Also, perfect timing because creepy comes back in time for Halloween/Fall!
Late 2023: New Characters. Who would be coming? The Disney universe is large, do they add fan favorites? Ones related to story? Some people are watching the voice actor list to get an early clue. New Frontiers. Adding to the map? Lord, my storage system is perfect right now! Multiplayer. Local? Online? New tool. I am guessing/hoping its a wand! 
So excited! I am actually thinking of adding another game to my collection: Disney Speedstorm Racing. It looks way better than it has any right to. What are you guys looking forward to? What has been your favorite part so far?

Nintendo Switch: DDLV-A Rift In Time...Part 1!
Where I thought this was going to be Update #6, it is taking a path all its own and happening at the same time as Update #6. Let's jump in.
Tumblr media
Before the Update: So, there is a lot to unpack in just one image. Left to right. Left, you see the vitalys crystals found in the mines. Waterfalls and the almost antlantean rocks. I would love that snake as a pet. A sand land, Jafar was teased at the end and he does come Arabia. The castle from Aladdin is in the center. Shifting right you have Tangled house, with the main character from tangled below. You see wall-e's garden, but you also see Eve. I would love for wall-e to have his other half. You see the encanto house, not that I saw the movie or generally liked that-but that is a large family as far as I know. Maybe we get another family member? I almost forgot about Gaston, glad to see more characters from that story coming. He could look better. The staff tool looks original. I can't place the animal on the right. I can't place the boat but some have said it's Typhoon Lagoon, Tarzan, or Jungle Cruise. Maybe Mickey's ship? New realms means new flowers and seeds and foods. Also, THE MONKEY.
Tumblr media
Welcome to Eternity Isle: So there is a lot to unpack here. First off, check your mailbox. There will be some intended and unintended goodies in there. This is somewhat story based, you will need to have completed a couple of missions (4 or so that show up more in the beginning of the game) that you need to be able to start your journey to Eternity Isle. You talk to Jafar via a holographic device. Merlin shows you how to get there. (I was so surprised when I saw it, the developers are being very smart in leaving so many future options open for this game)
Once you get there, You see mostly what we saw in the preview as a video. The first area is ancients landing. This is essentially another valley but its smaller (and called an isle). It functions not unlike your valley, but with different everything. Animals, fruits, trees, crystals, spices, etc. You do have a copy of your house there-which begs the question-should storage be inside your house to transfer to both areas better? You follow the story and most of what you need to know is explained as you go.
Characters can come and go to both locations. Mickey introduces a game you can play with villagers, seems chess like. I have not played this yet but plan to next time I jump on. You have Eve, Gaston, and Rapunzel on this side to meet and level up. You can house them here or in the valley. There is a restaurant from Remy to work on, stalls for goofy, and a shop for Scrooge.
I personally really like it so far. A lot of content now, and coming up, for the price. It is hard to imagine how much it cost behind the scenes to make this. Yes, at some point the company will profit-but if they do not, they go out of business-and if we want to play games we need the company around. Next update is in Spring of 2024, part 2-the spark of Imagination. What part of this do you love so far?

Nintendo Switch: DDLV Update 5!
So, if anyone is following from update 4, it was a somewhat busy update. On one hand, I was right about Venelope. On the other hand, I wish that update was sweeter. Oh, and don't get me started on dream snaps. But let's jump in.
Tumblr media
Update 4: So, Venelope came in. More and more people are starting to run into the issue of "where am I going to put more people in the valley?". But I placed her in my "kids" like area. The other really big thing was Dream Snaps. You know, Snaps like camera. It is an in game photo competition. Weekly. Starting out they did not specify enough how to achieve the goal. They are catching on and getting better at that. Practice taking photos, play with animal companion poses, buy clothes and furniture, decorate specific rooms in your house and decorate outside.
Update 5: So, from the roadmap what can we expect? Visually Belle, and honestly...ITS ABOUT TIME. So she comes from a door in the castle, so save up the currency used to open the door. Star path of darkness comes into the valley in time for Halloween.
Tumblr media
Before the Update: I feel bad I did not think to include this teaser image into the post before. But I am now. And moving forward. So, let's talk about what we see. BELLE AND BEAST. Don't mind, I am just already imagining the photos I will take with Beast. But let's work left to right. Left, you have Mother Gothel by some Nightmare Before Christmas items. This could be a new realm, star path items, or characters. Middle, the player is holding a book-there has been talk of a new tool. Right, you have what I think is the house that Belle and Beast share. I plan to put it in the forest by my second home. There is something else to notice, a parrot in the corner. There was an idea that the pirate island that gets activated at the end of the game would come back into play with the parrot. Or a companion you can earn. Someone in my Facebook group thinks the update comes 9/15 based on when the moonstone store refreshes.
The Update: It came earlier than expected. So, this is your only spoiler alert. First, check your dream snaps results, goodies, and submit your next dream snap. Item shop: love the new stuff, I am so tempted to spend real money to get the house and the dog. Star Path: YAASS. Villians are my jam, so psyched! But it gets even better, how I know, Ursula's transformation bundle! I loved Walles, and I can't wait to do Ursula's. Now, for valley newbies-we have Beast and Belle! Go to your castle to start your adventure with them. It seems you have quests from The Forgotten settle into the valley at last!
Update 6: So, last column let's break this down a bit. "A new chapter begins late 2023". Based on the image, and the end of the main story-I would guess it is based around Jafar and Aladdin. "New Characters", some people are paying attention to the voice actor list but honestly I am not sure who else is coming in. Hopefully some pairing characters like Eva for Walle. "New frontiers" this was teased at the end of the main story. "Multiplayer", I wonder if they mean Dream Snaps to be the multiplayer? "New Royal Tool", I wonder if the book in the next update is not the tool-but what is the book used for? Some people say it's going to function as a traveling tool, like in the live action movie.
While I do love this game, this game has borrowed so much from other games, I wonder if they don't get in trouble from borrowing too much more? What do you guys think of this update? Who is ready to see this game be free access to play sooner than later? Stay tuned for the next update, the game turns 1 year old!
