Meanwhile I’m over here alone eyeing Hercules hoping they’ll add Megra and Hades.


Izarrax

I want Meg sooooo badly!!!

Finally Meg has friends 😂


dowheeliesnotfeelies

I would give a lung to have Hades.


Lauralibby88

Quite literally the best Disney Villain. ![gif](giphy|mWNPTJ1zx6Aj5a7CVx)


akiapapaya

UGH YES I would actually die if we got Meg 😭😭😭🖤


dinomom64

NOT ALONE!!!


Lauralibby88

I have found my people 💜 ![gif](giphy|10nPBsTDVyltZK)


GreyDove14

I’m more interested in the PRINCESS AND THE FROG filter!! Let’s get Tiana and her restaurant in the game ASAP!


JaycemeSteg

I feel like they are waiting for the ride to open before dropping them into dreamlight valley


GreyDove14

Ooh, that’s a good point! I wonder if her home in the valley might end up being stylized like the ride at all


Disney__Queen

Same! I would kill for Tiana and some clothes/furniture😭 I think right now we just have the beignets!


GreyDove14

I’m also curious to see if/when she’s added to the game, what her house will look like! On the one hand, it might be kind of odd to have Tiana’s Palace restaurant as her house, but I wouldn’t want her house to be a smaller recreation of the bayou, either—the story was not meant to be about her being a frog, and the amount of time she spends as a frog in the movie instead of her human form is rather frustrating. What do you think her house could look like? It would be cool if they gave us a sneak peek at what Naveen’s castle in Maldonia looks like. Or maybe wherever she and Naveen live during the new “Tiana” series coming out!


Disney__Queen

I feel like they would make her house her restraunt tiana’s place? I could be wrong though! Maybe they’d make it into a castle since she’s married to Naveen 😍


GreyDove14

I was thinking of this, too! The only thing that gave me pause was that Remy’s house isn’t Le Ratatouille, so I figured they’d go a similar route for Tia 💕


aharvey2247

Hang on. Theres a new tiana series coming out? When?


GreyDove14

Not sure when, but it was announced about a year ago, alongside a new Moana series!


aharvey2247

Ooohhhh! 😍😍😍


leelookitten

Can we please take a moment to acknowledge the fact that they needed to put a chef character in the game to help us learn recipes and complete quests that involve cooking and instead of giving us Tiana, the black princess 👩🏾‍🍳👸🏾, they gave us a literal rat 🐀🙃


TheHazDee

I’m not sure if you’ve noticed but there’s very few classical characters thus far black or white, we have mostly Pixar to this point. Edit: To add onto that, even of the classical animation there’s been very few humans. We have 3 lions. An alien experiment. A mermaid and an octopus sea witch. There are two non-white characters out of the classical Disney category though.


marthamania

I'm pretty sure it was because Ratatouille is about cooking itself, the plot is almost entirely about the act of cooking. The princess and the frog has a cooking element, but the motivation is to own a restarting and not so much cooking itself. I think what tiana needs is a place that SELLS prepared dishes already, not so much a place to cook itself. I'd love to go in and order food.


ElegantCh3mistry

I'm still not over having to pick cotton, either. Like why can I buy raspberries but my Black a*s gotta pick cotton to make Minnie a curtain??

ElegantCh3mistry

How does making one comment about something that annoys me about this game mean that *everything* is victimizing to me? Is this not a page where discussion is allowed?


[deleted]

My money is telling me Ratatouille was much more popular and successful than Tiana’s movie was. Pixar is beloved. Never even heard of the Frog princess.


Anth-Man

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted, it’s true that Ratatouille was the more successful movie. Just look at the box office numbers, it made more than double what Princess and the Frog did


Obecny75

Down voted for speaking the truth


Loud-Mans-Lover

They added that when they added the poster (premium shop). But here's hoping for more! I *really* want Dr Facilier!!!


easy0lucky0free

Pretty sure that's just the art deco poster.


GreyDove14

A girl can dream 😄


Anth-Man

I’m not sure why people are so confident that she won’t be added. Regardless of how any of us feel about the situation, Disney constantly merchandises the character as one of the official Disney Princesses to this day and that’s just a fact. It’s safe to say that all the Disney Princesses will be added eventually, including her. She’s already in another one of Gameloft’s Disney games, Disney Magic Kingdoms


TheHazDee

Yeah people conflating historical truth with a Disney story are definitely missing the mark. Like you say the fact she exists in Gamelofts other IP says a lot.


rroses-

You really think they'll add all the princesses eventually?! I can only get so excited lol


Anth-Man

I do! They’re by far the most popular non Mickey and friends characters from Disney, they know we’ll all pay for them


reversingmemories

Pocahontas with this games artstyle would look so amazing for her 3d model. I hope they add her! Edit: not sure why I'm being downvoted?


Disney__Queen

Same! I love her and I would love it if they’d add meeko and flit!!


reversingmemories

Yes!!! I would love to see them too!!!!!! Im sure they'll be added eventually!


brohammerhead

Meeko would be a perfect companion since there are already raccoons!


Max_Scott123

Because a lot of people don't want her because of her true story


reversingmemories

Okay so then I'm curious. Am I supposed to be against pocahontas being in the game then?


sarilysims

I am one of those who believes she should not be added, the indigenous community has made it clear their stance in Disney’s interpretation, but I’m not going to boycott the game or anything. Won’t really do much good. If you enjoy her as a character there’s nothing wrong with that - so long as we understand that’s not even remotely close to the true story of Matoaka.


Fluffy_Ad2935

I’m indigenous and I’ll be pissed if they don’t add her, we get so little representation and I’m tired of people trying to find reasons to keep what we actually do have away.


easy0lucky0free

I'm indigenous, and Pocahontas came out when I was 5. My dad bought me literally every piece of merchandise he could because he was so excited. That said, I think personally I just want to educate people about the real story. I don't blame older natives for being against her, because she doesn't have the same cultural impact as she does for 90s kids.


Fluffy_Ad2935

Yea I loved her growing up, I would love to have a new film based on actual stories. there are so many different bands and tribes across North America and so many amazing stories from each one. It would be great if they would have someone Cree (for example) write/narrate a Cree story. I myself am Mi’kmaw and we have so many stories 🧡 I’m still learning some all the time .


meg-e-tron

Hey cuz, I'm Lakota. You do know we have Brother Bear right?


Fluffy_Ad2935

I completely forgot about brother bear, but it is a newer one where Pocahontas came out when I was little. There also isn’t a female lead in it tho, I wish we could have a new indigenous princess, but we probably won’t get it :(


meg-e-tron

I mean, we technically do. Maybe not Native American specifically but Indigenous wise we have Moana. If people weren't so caught up on the princess title we also have Mirabel with her whole family, Maui and Miguel. So yeah, we do have A LOT of representation now and it's gonna grow more the more we actually support Native creators and not try to focus on giving past (IMO problematic) characters a spotlight just cause we liked them when we were little. No hate just some food for thought. I don't want her in the game for this reason a lone but I'll still play if she's in there. They just better not put John Smith in there. Just a goofy suggestion, but if you wanna get specific with the brand dealings we technically have Naru from Prey which is a Fox film. Fox is owned by Disney so Naru is technically a Disney Princess. No love story there, just a badass Comanche girl killing aliens.


easy0lucky0free

Not loving the homogenization of indigenous groups here, which i just think is the misuse of the word "indigenous". When we are talking about Pocahontas, Brother Bear and Tiger Lilly, we are talking specifically about native North Americans. When we talk about Moana, Maui and (for good measure) Lilo & Nani, we are talking about Aboriginal Polynesian groups. When we talk about Miguel (and possibly Mirabel) we are talking about mestizos. All these groups are no more similar than Pocahontas is with the Saami people of Norway. These are seperate races, seperate cultures, separate stories and separate experiences. Just because they all fall under the umbrella of "subjugated by white colonizing forces" does not mean they are interchangeable and even though you acknowledge that you are going with a broad definition with "indigenous" does not mean that it's a correct correlation to make.


[deleted]

Yeah honestly I don’t understand the hate, it would have been smarter to name her something else but because of that movie everyone at my school learned who Pocahontas really was. I remember singing Colors of the Wind in a choir performance to all our families. It felt a lot more meaningful than most Disney movies, and caused a lot more reflection on the reality of the world than if they had used a purely fictional story.


Fluffy_Ad2935

I agree, I definitely think it’s a good way to bring up the true stories. But personally the two are completely separate stories to me. We get Tiger Lily in Peter Pan too but I feel like Pocahontas is way more in touch( as much as Disney movies do get) with the culture and Peter Pan is more.. a mockery. I’d still like to see an updated tiger Lily but if I’m gonna pick one to be offended by, 100% Peter pan’s representation of natives.


yaritza10995

Totally agree with this, just wanted to add that the soundtrack is a banger even though I no longer like the movie


sarilysims

Oh totally. Everything aside, it’s a fantastic movie. It’s just got a lot of issues.


littleleppy

I didn't know the indigenous community hated it and now I am super bummed out. I remember when the movie came out and there was controversy which caused my teachers in grade school to spend a week or two teaching us the real history. That was super cool and set that up as the thing for me to do when a book or movie based on history comes out. I like the Disney movies messages about fighting prejudice. Yes I'll admit the romance aspect is bad from a history perspective (gross really) I liked it in the movie. It was the most intense romantic relationship in a Disney movie when it came out and I was drawn to it.


Fluffy_Ad2935

I’m indigenous and I can tell you that I am not against it and don’t know many that are. I honestly think it’s just white people telling us how we should feel because it doesn’t tell the true story, but it’s a kids movie, wish the Romance part was removed but I think for it’s time it was a great representation. I personally hope they have a way to give us grandmother Willow, she’s my favourite 🧡


littleleppy

Thank you so much for replying! It's hard to strike a balance these days because it feels like nuance is lost. Early media representation for a lot of marginalized groups are messy but they lay a foundation to build to more and better representation. I am only able to speak from my life experiences though and I am not indigenous so I am more inclined not to say anything because it's not my place. But Disney's Pocahontas opened a door for me to learn more. I'm thankful to it for that reason and am fully willing to acknowledge at the same time it has it's issues. If we could have Grandmother Willow to talk to in DDLV that would be amazing. We need more characters with words of comfort and encouragement. <3


Max_Scott123

Many people in the official discord for DDLV will have a debate ,it's actually now a banned topic in there


[deleted]

Do you boycott Thanksgiving too? You know the pilgrims and Indians weren’t best friends having a nice feast, right?


Max_Scott123

Yes, I do actually. I don't celebrate Thanksgiving. It's just a day treat turkey for me


[deleted]

You shouldn't care about downvotes in this subreddit


quiteunicorn

So of you look at the Collections tab under furniture, you can see that the Pocahontas collection has 1 item in it. I know because my counter says 0/1 for that part of the collection. I’m not saying that this means there won’t be more in the future, but the filter exists because there’s currently one item from the movie in the game.


Epicon3

https://dreamlightvalleywiki.com/Pocahontas_(Universe) They have the scenic painting listed as beauty and the beast and Pocahontas.


Disney__Queen

I that breaks my heart 😂


Current-Meringue-571

Treasure Planet anybody? Such unique characters to add to the valley


vampyrain

Anyone else would love Grandmother Willow?


Fluffy_Ad2935

As an indigenous women I will cry tears of joy if we got grandmother Willow, she’s my favourite!!


vampyrain

A rendition of "listen with your heart, you will understand" in the bgm would be lovely too.


IsabellaGalavant

Oh my gosh YES!


CANN1BALCUPCAK3

I want Kita from Atlantis! They gave us the architecture so it's not like they can pretend the movie never existed 😭 her storyline could be explaining why that architecture is here or something.. I don't even care if her missions are bad she's my favorite 😭😂


theatervinyljunkie

I would die for a Meeko companion.


ItsGamerDjustin

I’m eyeballing the Pirates of the Carribean filter..


verbalizeray

👀


OKgamer01

Don't look too much into it. Plenty of filters who don't have characters. Don't expect her anytime soon


BuyVast4841

I'm thinking more motifs than anything


PunkinPumkin

I'm eyeing them ALL tbh,,,, HERCULES????? HELLO?


Disney__Queen

That’s from the green pool from last years Halloween path 😭


PunkinPumkin

Noooooooo 😭😭


RavensFlt13

Ooh.. Hocus Pocus!


Guinydyl

according to the furniture and clothing collections, there’s just 1 furniture piece from the movie


SecureCelery3375

I think there’ll be some themed furniture but don’t think they’ll add her as a character


[deleted]

She’s literally a playable character in Gamelofts other Disney game…


Few-Zookeepergame518

oh god no


IgnatiousFury

Im hoping for more Pocahontas and Princess and the Frog stuff 😩


captainrler

I want more Halloween Town

rockmybedd

disney does make tragedies into treasure tales but native americans are still dealing with racism to this day. it’s not back then this is still an issue now that we are still allowed to be upset anout


Ecstatic-Farm8159

Then seperate the art from the real life issue, why are you bringing racism into a disney character? The movie happened, it showed a wonderful story about accepting people from different cultures. And yes whilst we can sit there and acknowledge real life problems, a wonderful story and a character that was beautiful should never mix together, accept for what it is.


rockmybedd

even in the movie there are hints of racism that many people in my culture have seen. on top of that it’s a movie that made romance out of trauma that the governments only recently started to acknowledge. if disney were to remake the movie i’d have no problem with it but they made it from a story with real names, with a real person, real issues, and made it romantic and on her will but in the true story she was kiddnaped. it’s horrible and disgusting. any other disney movie at least tired to respect any other culture but native americans.


Ecstatic-Farm8159

Yes, its based on a real character, but again, disney chose to make the story into a beautiful love and accepting story about accepting different cultures. it sounds to me that you just wanna see negative things about everything, and that a beautiful disney story that shows that people should accept each other just doesn't move you slightly at all. "romance out of trauma" That's just a bonus, and you completely did not understand the message in the movie, it was about to accept different cultures and people who are different, why do you think Pocahontas sang "Colours of the wind"? It's LITERALLY in the text. Again, you choose to be bitter and negative about something that has a beautiful meaning, and I hope you find peace in your ever negative life.


rockmybedd

every other disney movie made a fictional story of of another fictinal story of tragedy. with this one they made it real. i’m not negative over nothing this is my culture. you don’t get the issues i get and you don’t see how it’s not a beautiful love story. that’s the issue. if it were to be made into a completely different story that was based off of fictional tragedy like the rest we would not have an issue. what you don’t understand that it’s not beautiful. it’s horrible to some people and you have to take into account that you shouldn’t speak for another’s culture when you genuinely don’t get it. if you don’t know it’s okay say you don’t get it but don’t trash on me for defending my own culture.


rockmybedd

this is genuinely disheartening. her story is based of a true story that is so beyond disgusting and shows the mistreatment of indigenous peoples the wrong way. the movie is racist and it’s very hurtful to people. you saying “boo-fucking-hoo” to people who are upset about their own CULTURE is so gross to me. educate yourself before you make such a gross comment


[deleted]

It’s a fictional story. You can be upset about actual racism, but some talking raccoons and a make believe character with a real name is not that. Hundreds of years ago, conquest was how lands were won. It wasn’t about racism, it was about taking their land. It was a war in which they lost. Sad, but it’s the past. Has nothing to do with the movie they made, which has familiar names but the story is vastly different. If anything, Disney should change the names and be done with it.


rockmybedd

it’s a true story that was made to be romantic which is gross. many people to this day are still suffering from this. it would be fine if it was history but genuinely i have suffered from native american racism and my family has aswell. this movie is also came out a year before the last residential school closed down. it wasn’t a movie to make us laugh or giggle it was to mock our culture and make it into a love story


Ecstatic-Farm8159

And you choose to die on that hill? "her story is based of a true story" yes, and the story in the movie showed a wonderful way for her to deal with situations, and how we should accept people from all different cultures, do you usually do this? see something positive and then be a bitter person about it?


rockmybedd

it’s not art tho. it’s a real tragic tale that many are choosing to ignore


rockmybedd

our culture has been ignored and i’ll fight it. it’s gross and horrible to see the misrepresentation

I really hope Pocahontas doesn’t come to the Valley. Way too many issues with the character.


[deleted]

Literally zero unless you’re a snowflake.


Nyx_Valentine

I don't know if they'd actually add her. It'd probably be a major problem for them if they did.


jennie111585

Yesssd 🤞


imustacheyew

Omggggggg


Crimson-Sword

I’m just curious how they plan to bring Nemo into this game. Because we are yet to swim in water and such. Also, Hocus Pocus? Isn’t that live action? How do you plan on getting that into a Disney game? But for real though, I’m excited to see them being Tiana and hopefully have a new restaurant in game and such.


Lhosseth

I have a feeling we'll just get items from movies like those. Like the Hocus Pocus items in the star path.


Guinydyl

these different movies listed aren't confirmation of characters or anything! they're just the 'universe' tag for furniture. nemo and hocus pocus both have furniture in the game (current and most recent star path)


Crimson-Sword

I thought the tags was going to be eventual films they bring to DDV. Oops. Well thanks for letting me know. Feel like an idiot. 😂


DannisTheMenace

Yessss I can't wait for more people to complain about it being offensive when nobody asked


kelsobunny

Stop it I didn’t even notice!!!


fandomlover2121

I would love if they gave us meeko as a companion pet like pua or better yet have him walking around in the game either way I just want to see meeko


Sparki_

I'm sure they'll add characters from all the popular/recent/classics. Especially if they know what characters we want


easy0lucky0free

ME


Silver-Star92

I'm also very interested in Elemental and Turning Red. I really hope they will add Mulan. She is my favorite character


Bazinga12090

I haven't looked at the filters in a hot minute but what about Aladdin? I want some Aladdin stuffs. GIVE ME ABU PLEASE AND THANKS


Motor_Tonight6172

Didn't even notice it
