Sony Has a '10 Year Vision' for Dreams, One of Shuhei Yoshida's Favourite Projects Ever

Interview with PlayStation Asia:
I believe it, Dreams is incredible and seems like an amazingly solid foundation for whatever else they have planned.
I'm so glad Shu is excited about it. It's a genuinely incredible project. I was very, very worried it would flop sales-wise and kill Media Molecule. I still think it won't rake in boatloads of money but I'm glad it's safe regardless.
Good - give Mm all the support and time needed.
Dreams cannot be treated like it's just a one-and-done game like a traditional $60 release. Hope Sony realises that.

It does, VR support is supposed to arrive before the full release.
Dreams or its updates will hopefully live more than 10 years. But maybe they need a pc version at some point to really become a mainstream tool.
Even only as a graphic tool to build a scene this is amazing and i love it but there are limitations of course and you can't export anything of quality from it..

Exporting 3D models so they can be used in game engines like Unity is a feature they already confirmed they're working on.
But i'm not even sure Dreams is that much of a great soft to model, or is it ? But i find it amazing for building a scene. Actually i don't know if any 3d soft lets you assemble models in a scene like that and put light etc.. But i don't really know 3d software anywway.
When i say export i mean.. Let me export a printable picture at least.. I would love to use dreams to actually make art, landscape etc...
They should have a trial version preinstalled on all PS5 consoles at launch. Introduce players to Dreams and then watch it flourish next gen.
It really does need support for at least mouse. Using the DS4 is horrid, which is no doubt why they put in support for Move.
Dreams could be a cornerstone of their streaming strategy IMO.
Dreams can be YouTube to the PSNow's Netlix/iTunes/HBO.
It feels like a gaming YouTube, it just needs the accessibility of a YouTube - make it accessible through streaming in a browser/apps/etc. I think it's a candidate for the idea of selective PC porting of 'service' games also.

Good, I hope Sony is prepared to support Mm even if the game isn't an immediate success because it's clearly something that will evolve and flourish over the years. Can't wait for the full release!
Fantastic idea. This could be PlayStation's Wii Sports, their Minecraft.
Okay hear me out.
You start up the PS5 for your first time, and instead of the usual intro, you get dreams! Then the game lets you create your own PS5 UI and personalize it
Agreed, I feel a game like this would thrive on PC, also think if Sony were gonna start putting more 1st party games into PS Now Dreams would be a good candidate.
We already have confirmation on that, don't we? I believe Sony has been on-record saying the current VR headset will work with PS5 and we know VR is planned for Dreams.
I don't really like that idea. I like it as an option, but I don't want to buy my new console, and instead of setting it up, be making a UI that I like. I definitely like it as an option, but when I go out to buy my Ps5, I'm gonna want to set it up and immediately play a new shiny game and act like a kid on Christmas, not spend time making a UI.
You know what, I think I will give this thing a try after all.
We all get crazy dreams time to time. Would be fun to translate it if the tools are easy to use.

Well, MM's other game's servers are still up. It's been almost 11 years.
Good to hear. I love what I am seeing out of Dreams thus far.
You know. This might sound crazy but I do hope there is no PC version. There is something to said about creativity through limitation. I know people will disagree with me on that but I feel like something not having unlimited resources (which a PC version might be able to afford) is better.

Dreams itself is still heavily limited by its creation tools. We have to make segmented puppets of objects and can't do any deforming of meshes.
I'm happy at the commitment but I fear Sony gonna waste money for 10 years. Dreams didn't look like it has the same buzz as LBP pre release, and you can't sell sticker and costume mtx because user can create and share anything made from scratch in Dreams
It would be a nice option for sure. One of my favourite things for my cfw PSP was making my own UI's. Shouldn't be default though and realistically I can't imagine Sony allowing the game to modify the OS.
Technically you can make anything, but if they did put out official stuff i'd think that'd still be appealing. Especially if combined with gameplay content. You also have the "Imp", you little cursor in the game. They could sell cosmetic changes for it.
I'm still not convinced of the game since everything that came out of it by now looks very samey, at least in these early stages, but it's good to see a big publisher is in it for the long run for a change. Now they still have to stick to their words of course.
I really want to love Dreams, but I really struggled with the controls and I lack any precision. VR, Mouse and Keyboard support would be really helpful. In it's current iteration i quickly gave up on it.
It's one of the most amazing pieces of software I've ever seen. Excited to see what they do with it going into next gen
VR support is going to launch this game to new heights. Offering a near-endless, dynamic lineup of community-created VR experiences is going to be a gamechanger.
To be frank if you think everything looks very samey you haven't been looking. There is a lot of variety to be found.
Bad idea, creating stuff in Dreams isn't easy as it seems, it's extremely time consuming if you aren't clever and know how to do stuff ^^
Happy to know Shuhei is all in for it, hope the best for MM!
Maybe they could come up with a few templates and then we can customize it from there.
