Twas Christmas 2015 when I received LEGO Dimensions for the Xbox 360. Along with the motivating set: the Doctor Who level pack. From there, LEGO Dimensions became a game that I sank hours and hours into for over three years. I bought all sorts of sets over the years for this game. Fun packs, Team packs, Level packs, Story packs, hell; I even upgraded to the Xbox One a few years later, that’s how committed I was. Is it perfect? Not really. The “toy-pad is a controller” gimmick gets old quick, and some of the older versions of the game are buggy as hell. But everyone’s entitled to at least one game to look back on with rose-tinted glasses. The rather large problem is that LEGO Dimensions is slowly becoming lost media. Many digital storefronts are closing, locking off key updates and Year Two content. Plus, toy-pads don’t last forever. A PC rerelease with all characters baked into the game would give it permanent preservation and longevity. And without the cost to buy a multitude of sets. If any LEGO game desperately needs a PC version; it’s LEGO Dimensions.
LEGO Dimensions is one of these games that came out at a time when externals peripherals were trendy, but now the game isn't sold anymore, the eshops supporting it and its DLCs are closing down and it won't be long before the physical tools like the portal are either absurdly expensive or worn out. This game has a lot of worthwhile content that deserves to live on. As it is now, it risks disappearing with no reliable way to experience it again. GOG already has several LEGO games, the engine has been adapted to PC for a time now, which means it is feasible.
Truly a game that deserves to be preserved, as content for the game is no longer accessible on Wii U or XBox 360. I adore this game, having poured many hours into the PS4 version, running around as an eclectic mix of The Doctor, Batman, Wildstyle, Krusty the Clown, The Wicked Witch of the West, Wonder Woman, and more. Every world is filled with references and Easter eggs and even the characters have little interactions. While I know working with all the licensees and reworking the toypad/toys to life aspect would be a challenge, this is a prime example of the type of game that deserves preservation. No other game has assembled so many disparate properties or done it with such love and devotion. GOG save us!!
My brother got this game for Christmas 2015 on PS4 and this has got to be one of the best LEGO videogame experiences by far! This game fit the 'Toys-to-Life' trend better than any of the others and it would be amazing to receive a PC port of this game. To think theres a whole generation out there now who would have never experienced this and will never get to feels like a waste of the hard work developers put into it. I hope this could get selected, I would love to play this with my kids one day.
