      Wow, there's a lot of negative comments there for something two brothers came up with in a week, in a beta program after an hour of tutorials. Not surprising considering reddit, but yikes.

    I just worry about the longevity of this—we're coming to the end of the PS4's lifecycle, and these creations might be too limited in the amount of time people have to experience them. I hope there's already a transition plan for Dreams to PS5 (anything less than day one is 👎), but I think my wish for that is even already too cynical: some of this is so beautiful and so creative that it almost feels damning to lock this experience to only PS4—Media Molecule and Sony lock the full Dreams editor to PS4, but make a "Dream Experience" app which enables these experiences on Xbox, PC, Mac, iPad, etc..
