Disney Dreamlight Valley’s May 13 update features quite a few of the most highly-requested bugfixes, particularly those centered around Daisy’s Boutique.
The new patch, which was shipped live today, makes the Boutique challenges a lot easier to accept, adds more tips to the questlines, and makes sure Oswald’s Many Dimensions quest won’t be blocked by owning his 3D glasses already.
As Oswald and Daisy were new additions to Disney Dreamlight Valley during the Thrills and Frills (for the base game) and Spark of Imagination (the second act for the A Rift in Time expansion) updates on May 1, there were bound to be a few hiccups.
While there have been many issues, the ones regarding Daisy and her Boutique and Oswald were the most frustrating among Dreamlight Valley players. This is because the Boutique’s opening quest—You Have Mail—did not offer tips on completing this quest. Then, worse still, if you could get your hands on Oswald’s 3D glasses (the ones you need to see his house in 3D in Oswald’s Many Dimensions quest) before reaching this step, your progress would be blocked, meaning you could not progress.
If you don’t own the expansion or haven’t heard about this problem, those receiving this roadblock could not build Oswald’s house or welcome him to the Eternity Isle.
Thankfully, these were fixed in Disney Dreamlight Valley’s May 13 update, along with the following bugfixes and gameplay improvements.
