I don't even know anything about this game, but I'm looking up the cards as we speak Laughing

Here's a list of the ones they have for the Aladdin crew so far. Some of the Jasmine ones are also *_*

I didn't say much about Dreamlight Valley lately, but I think now we have enough info to talk about.

To summerize the rest of the Eternity Isle's story with Jafar it was alright. Oswald's edition actually was a lot of fun and his animations are really good, giving me hope they will do Genie as well once he gets added.

Rest is basically trying to stop Jafar after he took the Sparl of Imagination for himself and how he gets defeated? By literally tricking him to become as powerful as a genie and make his own lamp for himself. Not gonna lie I had a good laugh on that because as ridiculous as it was, it does fit Laughing

After that they don't give him a full on redemption to Jafar, more of a adjustment. He doesn1t trust anyone easily at first and really only starts to give the player a bit of insight when it's about alchemy. That part was interesting. Sadly for a bit he reverts back to wanting power and after we defeat him again, he's on trial by the villagers and we have to prove him having some hope for him by showing past memories. He had to do some humanitarian work with the player and after that he starts to fit in with the others although still himself.

One thing that was interesting is that he does misses Iago and even Oswald admits that he sensed loneliness from Jafar (tldr: he was taking Oswald's power as part of his friendship quest) and we do get a statue of Iago for him in the end.

Overall good handling of his character. Sadly we didn1t get much items with these expansions for Aladdin, but we did get the palace's fountain (one of the best ones so far) and we got items to make an Agrabah marketplace, even if they are premium items.

Now I do admit this was back in August and wanted to tell this, but then I saw the new teaser for the next expansion and throught dsatamining the community found some interesting bits, so I decided to wait till the showcase for next expansion and upcoming updates for 2025. Boy am I happy to have waited!

Fingers crossed we also get Genie sooner or later, but getting Jasmine and Aladdin early next year with an explorable Agrabah too? Sign me up! Plus this pretty much confirms that the starpart on that update will be most likely Aladdin themed too, so yes, bring me 2025 already! Twisted Evil

you know, I saw some screencaps from the game and wasn't entirely sure if they were in context or not, but I see from your post they are!

yay for more characters being added, though! I'm not sure what's gonna happen with just Jafar, Aladdin and Jasmine hanging around, but I guess we're gonna find out Laughing

Most likely not much. DLC characters have very limited interactions with newer characters added in. And it was only very recently they even got some. One of Pumbaa's quests has the option to talk with Rapunzel who is a DLC character.

The kiss goodnight from aboard the Disney Treasure featuring Arabian Nights

I have never heard the barbaric line cut before (and replaced with sand sound effects no less). Like, at this point, just use one of the dozen reprises or come up with something new like everyone else does Laughing

Really don't see a point in removing these lines at all. It's about a fictional world (which let's be real, isn't the friendliest), they are not describing the real world.

Or if they are this embarrassed by the original lyrics, they could have used the 2019 version at this point. It literally removed any potential controversial stuff from it.

So after months of waiting, Smite 2 finally revealed their version of Aladdin and honestly so far I'm pretty happy with it. It doesn't try to copy the Disney version and actually incorporate the original tale a lot more.

https://www.smite2.com/news/aladdin-closer-look/

Also when I saw that the ult is basically the enemy being sucked into the lamp for a good old 1v1 I was like "oh, so they played those movie-tie in games and saw that level in the lamp huh?" Laughing

Now to my surprise one of my Smite friends was like "wait, aladdin isn't just a stupid story made up by Disney?" (this is after him knowing me for close to a decade and knowing about me being a fan) so had to call up my kebab friend to tell him wtf the Arabian Nights are. Laughing

Last time I checked only in "Power to the Parrot" where Agrabah had a river and well... didn't turn out too well.

Nice to see the VAs still getting along so well and just being in touch overall.
Maybe they just try to incorporate the live-action version a bit, since that Agrabah was more like a port-city, but yeah, nothing suggests that Agrabah has a river like that around it.

Okay, gotta need to boot up Smite 2 for him. He does look fun to play from the gameplays I have seen so far, and hopefully the game is better optimized now that it's going open beta next week.

Can1t deny been kinda eating good regarding stuff I like. From October to end of year I had Bleach TYBW 3 to enjoy, now I get Smite's version of Aladdin, and if my claculation is correct, I get Aladdin and Jasmine just 2 days before Valentine's day. Really need to finish their royal garden. Laughing

So I'm a somewhat avid Pokemon Go player. I have a tag for my strongest Pokemon. I call them the "Riders Ramond." Laughing (not enough characters to include "of." And each Pokemon in that group is renamed to be an Aladdin reference based on their type or their aesthetic:







I caught a perfect Sawsbuck yesterday (bottom left) but am blanking on what I should name it!

*Feel free to comment if you have a better name for any of them, or if there's a Pokemon I haven't added that has a perfect match Smile

"Lea Salonga" Laughing Laughing Laughing (also Destane having slightly higher cp than Mozenrath - shots fired Laughing)

You can go for a semi-deep reference and name it Sahara after the murderous horse Jasmine's mother had according to the Follow Your Dreams story Laughing
