The Storybook Vale is a lovely DLC, but has one major flaw

The Disney Dreamlight Valley: Storybook Vale DLC is a delightful adventure in the worlds of Hercules and Sleeping Beauty, but it has one major flaw that has plagued the game since its release. The inventory system has to change.

An annoying mechanic that is compounded further in The Storybook Vale

The Disney Dreamlight Valley Storybook Vale DLC has been fun over the past week or so as we meet new friends like Flynn Rider and create statues for the mighty Hades. However, the inventory system is starting to spoil the magic of this game.

From day one, we have been stretched with limited inventory space that is used for everything we collect: food, quest items, ingredients, etc. It’s always frustrating when you’re farming, and you can’t pick anything new up because of the inventory space once again being limited. This is exacerbated by the fact that your character constantly picks up soil from the ground, which is practically worthless.

You can craft chests and other storage solutions to place your items in, but after years of playing Disney Dreamlight Valley, they have become an eyesore. It’s also confusing to distinguish where your resources are, and it’s especially frustrating to find quest items. It’s a right pain.

The inventory system has become a sore topic, especially with The Storybook Vale expansion because of the addition of the Snippets. These are creatures throughout the Vale that can be collected to redeem storybook puzzles which you can complete with the Lorekeeper. In return, you’ll get rewards like chairs and other objects. The Snippets, unfortunately, go straight to your inventory system, taking precious space in your already full bag, and there are many different varieties of them.

What is the solution?

It would be great if Gameloft could finally give players more space in their inventory system. It’s a constant annoyance to always go back to Goofy. At some points, I’ve had to sell resources to finish quests just so I can have room. It would also help if the number of vegetables and fruits you can gather goes up to 100 instead of 50 per slot. Hopefully, the inventory system issue will get resolved soon because it’s one of the most annoying factors of an otherwise relaxing and rewarding experience in Disney Dreamlight Valley and its DLC The Storybook Vale.
