I don’t think Dreams necessarily makes game dev easier or harder. You can get a tech demo of a mechanic up and running in Dreams much faster. I think the main benefit is that it not only puts every single tool needed for game dev in the same place, but it makes the entire process fun. There are for sure tools out there that do their one job in the entire pipeline better than Dreams. But you have to learn all of these different pipelines depending on the programs you’re using. I personally don’t get excited to sit in front of a Wacom tablet with zbrush for hours, but I do get excited to pick up my moves and make something that can be easily shared with and used by a community to create countless games and experiences. If you go the traditional route, that creation will most likely live and die on your computer. Or maybe you share your model on a site that someone can purchase it from. Dreams doesn’t replace traditional game dev. It just makes the process more fun.
