Anyone else think it was a mistake to make Dreams a new IP instead of continuing the LittleBigPlanet franchise? LBP as a franchise had huge potential, it still baffles me how little Sony did with it. With Sackboy they had an iconic figure they could’ve carried through future generations. If Dreams was part of the LBP franchise, and the story mode actually contained Sackboy, then no one would be confused about what Dreams actually is.
LBP’s aesthetics are very unique, and should have been continued (at least in story mode). They should’ve just called it LittleBigWorld, which is what people have been hoping for ever since the first LBP came out. The marketing would have written itself: It’s LBP, but now in a fully traversable 3d world! It could’ve been Sony’s answer to both Mario and Minecraft.
Instead we got this bizarre reveal at E3 2013 (I believe) which left everyone confused. And instead of playing with Sackboy in a cool 3d world with iconic LBP aesthetics, we get these three weird, disconnected campaigns (at least that’s what I remember from the interviews and footage I’ve seen over the years). Overall I think it’s a huge missed opportunity.
