Disney Dreamlight Valley Needs Companions with Unique Boosts

by

The game titled “Disney Dreamlight Valley” is among the largest AAA simulation games built around a well-known intellectual property to emerge within its genre. Ever since it entered early access in 2022, “Disney Dreamlight Valley” has been captivating both casual gamers and Disney enthusiasts alike. Despite its impressive success, like any game, “Disney Dreamlight Valley” could benefit from certain enhancements. By examining other popular simulation games on the rise, “Disney Dreamlight Valley” may discover the ideal inspiration for these adjustments.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure, a fresh addition to the world of intellectual property-based simulation games, first appeared on Apple Arcade and subsequently launched on PC and Nintendo Switch in January. The game, themed around the popular Sanrio characters, is set to extend its reach to PlayStation 4 and 5 later this year. With its innovative twists on traditional gameplay aspects, it’s worth noting that games like Disney Dreamlight Valley regularly update, making it wise for Gameloft to study the successful elements of Hello Kitty Island Adventure in the future.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure’s Companions Give Players a Boost

Just as Disney Dreamlight Valley features villagers based on beloved Disney characters, Hello Kitty Island Adventure also has inhabitants modeled after iconic Sanrio figures. As players traverse Friendship Island, they encounter familiar faces such as Kuromi, Badtz-maru, and the ever-popular Hello Kitty. In this game, these companions join players in their activities like fishing, Critter gathering, and resource collection – a similarity both Hello Kitty Island Adventure and Disney Dreamlight Valley share.

In the game “Hello Kitty Island Adventure”, it’s worth noting that each character has a special touch to their roles. For instance, My Melody comes with unique abilities and bonuses that make gameplay more enjoyable as you traverse Friendship Island. One of her skills is called “Big Smile”. This skill, which consists of four levels, grants players who select My Melody an enhanced chance of receiving extra items when they give gifts. As the bond between player and companion grows (up to a certain level), each character eventually gets a second ability. In My Melody’s case, her second ability, “Handy Helper”, becomes available at Level 9, offering a reduction in the cost of repairing visitor cabins by one strawberry crate. While these perks are impressive individually, they become even more incredible after completing the “Together Forever” quest, allowing players to bring two companions with them for double the benefits and impact on Friendship Island.

How Disney Dreamlight Valley Could Implement this Feature

It would be quite advantageous for Disney Dreamlight Valley to incorporate a function similar to other games with expandable character rosters, such as Hello Kitty Island Adventure. Currently, the Villagers in Disney Dreamlight Valley can tag along with players, but this doesn’t seem to offer any clear advantages. Often, this results in a game of follow-the-leader during character-specific quests. Since there’s no apparent benefit to this feature, some players have expressed frustration when Villagers trail behind them. Fortunately, it is possible for players to dismiss these companions if they find their presence bothersome.

In the game Disney Dreamlight Valley, it could be challenging to assign distinct boosting abilities to each Villager due to its extensive and expanding cast of characters. Consequently, some Villagers may share the same ability if this feature were added. However, these boosting abilities would not only expedite completing Friendship Quests but also provide players with an advantage when progressing through Disney Dreamlight Valley’s Star Paths.

Players of Disney Dreamlight Valley find the Star Paths, a repetitive and dull mechanic in the season pass, quite frustrating. Adding abilities that help Villagers could make them more useful, and at the same time improve a mechanic players have frequently criticized. While Disney Dreamlight Valley should add its own creative touch to this feature as seen in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, it seems like an essential enhancement for the popular simulation game.
