I get it, and in some ways, Disney Dreamlight Valley‘s real time day/night schedule is nice.

I hung around for a while but he seemed to be out for the night. That meant I couldn’t progress that quest line until Kristoff woke up. But because Kristoff likes to go to bed ridiculously early (seriously, it wasn’t even 10), I was locked out from entering her house. One of Anna’s quests required me to go into her house to collect a book. Frozen‘s Anna and Kristoff share a house. But if you need them for something else – if you’re trying to level up your friendship with them to unlock a new quest, for example – it can be frustrating. In fairness to the game, if a character is required to progress an actual quest, they do seem to wake up at the point you need them (or maybe I’ve just been lucky with that so far). If you need that character for something, your progress is halted whole they catch 40 digital winks. When you can only jump into Disney Dreamlight Valley at a certain time of the day – for me, that’s usually a late evening – it can be frustrating. Mickey Mouse though? Lights out before 10pm in the Mr. But I suppose Scrooge can’t make money while he’s sleeping, so go figure. Merlin’s a few hundred years old, but he seems perpetually awake, as does Scrooge McDuck. In fairness, not every character seems to snooze – or they do so at such bizarre times that I’ve never actually caught them in the act. And it just so happens to always be the sleeping ones that I need to talk to. And to inject a sense of realism into proceedings, every character in the game has their own sleep/wake cycle. Wake up! I need to talk to you.ĭisney Dreamlight Valley takes place in real time, so when it’s daytime for you in the real world, it’s daytime in the valley.
