I initially had hoped to make a post last month shortly after the End of Summer Event started (and confirmation that the Sludge was a bug…), but a lot of things ended up happening and with a new update on the horizon, I figured I’d just wait until the update video and well, that finally showed up today so I’ll be talking a bit about that plus everything I’ve done since my last post.
The update is supposed to be a smaller one, as mentioned on their road map, but I’m genuinely okay with that. Until there is more biome space, even stuff I’m excited for can’t really be used like how I want to. I’m holding off a bit for decorating Eternity Isle for that very reason, though, now that the plot is over, I can probably work on it a bit more if I feel particularly inspired…
Anyway, the big additions are Timon and Pumbaa who have been teased since the beginning with one of the diary entries in Sunlit Plateau. It’ll be nice to finally get them in and I’m ready to build up their friendship ASAP.
I don’t really know how I feel about the Star Path (not really my aesthetic even if I like the music), but I’m sure I can use some of the items… Maybe. The Loungefly collaboration is interesting, but if you have to actually buy bags to get some of them in-game I may cry. While some of the backpacks are cute, I much prefer bigger backpacks and they’re just too small to be much use for me. Hopefully it’ll just be a code on social media or something…
Happy to see continued updates to Scrooge’s Store. Making it so furniture can show up where you already have the clothing will be really nice. New stock is good too, but I still feel like I’m missing things and the Collection tab is kind of buggy with some stuff which makes it hard to even tell what I’m missing at times. I just wish items you don’t have yet were prioritized first.
Also, will be nice being able to pin what we need for crafting. That ended up being it really for the update so now it’s time to talk about everything since my last DDLV post.
I ended up replacing the Heart Castle with Lady’s House for now. I liked having a little more room and I think it matches the Valley more. The only change I’d make is wanting the white/lavender-ish of the main siding to be a more pearl-ish pink instead. If only we could get a color variations of each new building like the original house has…
Goofy’s Stall had its first Skin added as well. Aesthetically, it’s not really my thing, but it works well in the Glade of Trust. I hope a cute pink version gets added at some point.
There were also so many nice items and we could finally place our custom doors properly too. I couldn’t help making additions to various rooms…
There were nice Exterior options as well.
It was then time for the End of Summer event which I was excited for as being one of the recipe testers on the Discord, having the unfound recipes was killing me. There were bushes for the Pink Marshmallows and the Blue Marshmallows spawned randomly.
It wasn’t hard to figure out the recipes at all (I mean, they flat out give you the recipe books…), so it just became a matter of waiting to have enough Marshmallows for crafting (A big thank you to friends who let me borrow their marshmallow supplies to make stuff faster!). Most of the items I ended up just putting around Buzz’s RV in the “campsite” area. The Bonfire could be used as one of the new group photo things as well which is neat.
Besides that, I’ve just been checking the shops each day as I continue to do my best to finish my Collection…
Finally, to finish this off, my Dreamsnap Entries since my last DDLV post.
My next post will likely be either when the update comes out or around when the Halloween event starts (unless I just edit that in). At the very least, it was confirmed there would be at least one new item for the Halloween event this year so here’s hoping I still have enough stuff stocked up to get whatever new things there may be…
