Disney Dreamlight Valley enthusiasts have expressed their sincere gratitude towards the developer, Gameloft, for attentively considering their feedback regarding the Star Paths and enhancing the accessibility of the latest installment. Star Paths represent limited-time quest series that allow players to earn unique rewards while the event is in progress. In previous events, Gameloft faced criticism for making the Star Paths excessively “grindy,” but the new Garden of Whimsy path appears to have made a significant shift in this regard.
Reddit user WrongLander has penned a heartfelt thank-you note to the developer, demonstrating their appreciation for the company’s efforts, stating, “for listening to feedback and making this Star Path far less grindy.” As per the Redditor’s observation, “it genuinely feels like Gameloft has taken community feedback to heart and implemented thoughtful changes to enhance the overall player experience.” Other community members have chimed in with their insights, with the majority of fans agreeing that this Star Path represents a positive change.

Complete All Quests in Under Two Days
The primary concern with previous Star Paths was their tendency to extend over multiple days, posing significant challenges for players who cannot invest extensive hours into the game. Kaitlyn Peterson elaborates on this issue in an op-ed for Screen Rant, noting:
While the initial Star Paths were widely celebrated as an enjoyable addition to the game’s content, the most recent ones have garnered a different response. …The requirements for earning Star Path tokens and exchanging them for rewards felt excessively punishing.
Essentially, rather than providing a fun way to engage with the game, Star Paths had begun to transform into a tedious, chore-like experience that drove some players away due to feelings of burnout and frustration.

According to WrongLander, the Garden of Whimsy Star Path has undergone several changes that enhance accessibility for all players. The prominent differences between this path and its predecessors include:
- None of the tasks require more than two days for completion.
- The previously “nitpicky” tasks, such as mining for specific gems, have been broadened to less specific requirements, like mining for any blue gems.
- The collection requirement for Memory Shards (which often depended on luck in locating rare items or foresight in keeping them unopened prior to the event) has been reduced from 10 to 5.
Overall, fans are expressing satisfaction with the current event’s Star Path, considering it much more accessible and enjoyable compared to previous iterations. Reddit user Lumpy_Flight3088 concurs with the initial poster, remarking that “the last two Star Paths felt like a chore, but this one is a significant improvement.” Players who have yet to embark on the Garden of Whimsy Star Path in Disney Dreamlight Valley still have ample time to finish it, as it will be available until June 11.
