Last night was Day 2 and have played about 4 hours each time. I've had one crash each day just before ending. Day 1 it crashed when I read a recipe inside Mickey house. Day 2 it crashed after saying goodbye to Goofy and opening the Quests. Finally figured out how to fish. Yes it's worth buying.
 
I think they need to either make time travel ok or adjust some characters sleep/spawn times. I haven't met many characters yet but Remy at least goes to sleep way too early(like 6 pm). I work in the day and can't play til evening so it makes it hard to catch him or even if you do you don't have time to make one of the things he wants before he goes to sleep. Also and Idk if the critters always keep the same schedule but that's another thing that needs tweaking if so. I'm trying to get all the critters in the valley, only need 2 more. One is a white squirrel. If you go to the critters tab it will tell you either they aren't there that day or the time frame they are there. The one freakin time the white squirrel was there was midnight to 6 am! This is the time I am sleeping. I really hope they fix these.
 
Maxed out my Scrooge at level 10 with the mining ability...just been using him to get precious stones and iron ore.

My biggest problem with this game just seems to be storage. I have made a few chests...and it's great that you can access stored items from cooking and crafting tables without needing to physically pull the items out. BUT...I keep getting stuck with all of these quest items, and then the quests themselves take a long time to complete. Feels like half the time I go to pick something up I get the "drop items to make space" prompt. And I know you can upgrade your bag as well...which I have done at least once or twice. But, yeah...storage is a problem for me. I need to organize all my chests so I know what is where, and then I probably need to make at least one or two more of them...
 
This game is so fun I got it on the 18 as a birthday gift I got the chef rat forget the name of it I though I would hate the quests but I really like them
 
Does anyone know if there is somewhere we can report game glitches? I'm playing on switch and for the last couple days my collections tab keep getting stuck. I'll be scrolling through the tabs and all of a sudden I'll get to one(yesterday critters today ingredients) and it'll just speed scroll down that list on it's own and its stuck there. I can go to other tabs in the collections page but that one becomes unusable because it stays on that exact spot no matter what. I tried going out of the game and back but no luck. I haven't done anything bad like time traveling so idk why this happening but i'd like to report it if possible. thanks

Ugh...I'm playing on Xbox, and I don't have this issue when I'm playing normally on my console...but I get it ALL the time when I'm using the Xbox app to stream to my PC. I know it's something to do with the game itself...because I stream other games on my PC all the time, and nothing compares to the level of skipping/lagging that this game has. I don't get stuck like you described...but the jumping when trying to look through inventory is really, really bad.

At first, I definitely thought it was lag related to my wifi (or just streaming difficulties). But, it isn't. I can just feel that it's something else. It's also impossible for me to fish when I'm streaming to my PC. (If it was normal lag caused by streaming difficulties, then I would be missing the button prompt)...but, this is not what happens. It feels more like there is an additional button input after I have already pressed it. So it gets double tapped and the fishing minigame ends. Really weird, though...because the game always plays perfectly for me on my Series X when I am just playing normally on my tv.

Anyway, not sure about reporting glitches. But there is definitely something up with this game and the way that it reads button inputs from time to time. At least, that's my opinion. - I've played some pretty demanding games via the Xbox app on my PC, and there is no reason for something like Disney Dreamlight Valley to be showing these kinds of issues when streaming. Something is fundamentally broken, for sure...especially since it does it at very specific times.

I had the same problem on my Switch Lite before the first patch update came out the other day. Since then my tabs collection has been fine and the lag going in to the menu's has stopped. The only time I get crashes is when I'm in design mode or just at random times so I've got into the habit of saving every 20 minutes or so. I think you can report glitches via their social media pages but luckily Disney is fully aware of the glitches are they are working on all of them so expect a lot of patches updates in the coming weeks and months.
 
neglected to mention that i actually went ahead and got this game, so. no doubt nitpicky complaints first.
  • storage is a bit of a nightmare. i know it says "upgrade your house to get more storage", but it's never actually made my chests able to hold more? i just have to create multiples and keep placing them lol. my first side room is definitely just going to have to be dedicated to that.
  • crashing. obviously something that is going to be fixed, but it's still a nightmare as of now. i definitely need to get into the habit of saving frequently, but the progress you can lose when it does randomly crash is really frustrating.
  • speaking of frustrating. decorating on a switch lite... hell. it really puts me off, because you have to use the joystick, not the directional pad, and the game is simultaneously too sensitive and not sensitive enough, so when placing paths especially, i miss what i'm trying to grab 50% of the time, and when trying to move furniture, it overshoots the mark more often than it doesn't. it's way too finicky.
  • also frustrating, and semi-related to decorating, is that you have obstructions such as the tree stumps and mushrooms, but you can't remove them unless progressing decently far? i had to google how to remove the stumps, because i wanted to place remy's house and restaurant beside each other but couldn't move them far back enough due to a cluster of stumps. turns out i have to go to the second floor to unlock frozen world, play that entire quest and then start another to have my shovel enchanted. ???? if i have to go through all that hassle, maybe stumps shouldn't be an issue until 'later' biomes instead of the starting one.
  • the cooking isn't as fun. i just don't like guesswork personally. in the end, i gave up and googled how to make ratatouille because i just kept producing salads despite using the ingredients remy told me to lmao. an option to reuse the ingredients you just entered previously would be nice, especially since there's a history function. if it's already there though, i couldn't work it out asdfghj.
  • it's very grindy. i would say almost needlessly so. disney, tell me why i can find three softwood in a cluster every 60 seconds but the lion king biome hasn't produced any hardwood in over a day. i paid 7k dreamlight for that!
  • definitely a personal complaint, but i really wish there was an option for a static camera because having to constantly rotate it to face forward with my character really screws with my motion sickness. (especially right now when i'm actually ill and already nauseous asdfghjk.)
  • a way to 'call' residents will be nice. trying to track ursula down and then finding her five miles out to see... pain.
overall it is a very fun and addicting game, definitely worth the price for the basic pack, but i also think there's a lot left to be desired in terms of customization. (the hairstyles are super limited, actually. the closest one to what i wanted was just a rip of anna's hair lmao, and the bangs are completely wrong, so i didn't pick it.) the eyes are a bit... bug-like, too. i think a slider to change their size would've been nice. it can feel kind of stagnant at times, where all you're doing is running between your villagers actively trying to level them up so you have something meaningful to do or running loops around the biomes picking up stuff to sell. when it's good though, it is really good !!
 
Some of my concerns about the lack of certain materials is starting to resolve itself at this point in the game. I've unlocked a few additional biomes now, and it seems to be much easier to obtain things like iron ore at this point (thank god). - It also seems to be easier to obtain dreamlight in general (probably just because there are more characters/quests/materials, etc. that are available to me). Anyway, that's my update for today. Just noticing that my progress is really gaining speed the further I get into the game.

Also, I unlocked an achievement today...but looking at the criteria, it definitely shouldn't have unlocked already. It was the one for unlocking all of Goofy's stalls. There are supposed to be 7 of them in 7 biomes. I only unlocked 5 of them. (I don't even have access to Forgotten Lands or Frosted Heights yet). Lol.

Oh...and I noticed a really annoying glitch when crafting certain items. For example, Mickey needed tinkering parts. I already had a bunch in a chest, so I thought I could give him those. Nope...the wording of the request specifically says "craft tinkering parts"...and the game takes this quite literally. I needed to obtain more iron ore, create more iron bars, and then craft more tinkering parts, even though I already had more than enough (I am counting this as a glitch, because it's absurd).
 
Is anyone having issues with the forest of valor? I'm not sure if I am but it feels like it. I've only got the first half open cause of the stumps blocking the bridge so that could have something to do with it. The first time I went there I found like 9 garlic but ever since i get no more than one a day. I have cleared all the night thorns and flowers but it hasn't helped. Also I got a quest from Minnie to pick some blue flowers there with her but again I only find one. I am guessing that all this crap is on the other side of the bridge but idk why it wont spawn on this side. I know to get rid of the stumps i need Anna. I read that her world is in the middle section of the castle but idk which level. I have remy and wall-e so tomorrow ill go get maui and hopefully that will open the 2nd level of the castle and hopefully anna is there.

The "blue" flowers actually appear more white than anything else. (This confused me a lot at the beginning). And they should spawn wherever. I did have the other side of the bridge open when I completed the flower quest...but, I don't think it should matter either way. (I found most of the flowers on the side that is open from the start...and I think they are just random).

And, yes...the Frozen level is the middle one on the second tier. (y)

thank you! i picked every flower on that side and only got one blue one/ i wouldnt care except minnie wont stop following me. idk why certain quests force them to follow u and others dont(i had this happen with mickey once too) its really annoying. glad to know anna is on the 2nd level cause i cant wait to clear that bridge.

I just repair the wells in each biome and then move them in "furniture mode" so I can teleport to the areas that are blocked off, that way I can unlock the chests and stock up on new items until I unlock quests that will upgrade my tools so I can then unlock those areas properly. Other than I've not had any problems in the Forest of Valor so far, but it could be that the spawn rate is slower outside of the main biomes especially when it comes to rarer items like the garlic.

you don't need to unlock all the bottom doors to unlock frozen btw!! i still haven't gone to moana, but i opened the frozen door yesterday.

it's in the middle bit of the second floor, which i believe isn't roped off; the side areas are though iirc
 
Um...so I'm doing the Maui quest to "fish where the island used to be"...but the orange bubbling fishing spot is too close to the raft that you build to find Ariel...so now I'm softlocked out of advancing...I think? I literally cannot fish the spot. Will the spot move if I go away and come back? How can I advance if it won't let me fish here?

*Update: I finally lucked out and got this to work by fishing the VERY edge of the puddle...and only after I reloaded my save. I think it might have nudged over by the tiniest margin, and I was able to just barely get inside of the circle. Any time I aimed directly for it, it was covered up. I got really lucky here. But this is a major issue.

Am I the only one who is really annoyed with these giant villager homes? Why do we have to build one for every one that we unlock(2 for moana/maui)? There just isn't space for these things. Even the ones in the water feel like they are in the way. Do we have to keep them placed once the villager is there? Do we need access to them(besides the first time to get chests/memories/whatever)? I placed the ones in the water near the shore cause Idk if we need to have access to them or not and the beach(which already feels cluttered) is now more so. I really wish the houses were smaller or could be removed after they move in. Also every time I talk to ursula i have the lets go see your house option. when i click it it takes me alone to her house but the option doesnt go away. anyone know why?
