so they admit its not safe for kids to play it?
Any game that is online (ie. Fortnight, Roblox, Minecraft servers) are not, never where, and never will be safe for kids to play.
That's why I set up a local Minecraft server. My kids can play together as much as they want, and I'm happy to open it up to their friends if they get the Java version.
apart from the littlebigplanet servers. Man I played that all the time as a kid with my friends. The nature of the game (creating levels and the ablity to share creations and give them to other people) made it one of the most wholesome gaming communities I've been in. I made genuine friends in that community. But it wasn't the money maker Sony wanted so they canned it. I genuinely can't think of one person that had a bad experience in that community.
I've only experienced LBP3 (which I understand was probably not the best part of the series) and found it just okay...
However Dreams is the one I wish Sony didn't abandon.
Fair enough. LBP3 they switched to a different developer team and they didn't do the best job. But man, the LBP 2 days are genuinely some of my favourite childhood memories. It was the most wholesome and fun time I've ever had. I think that if it wasn't a sony exclusive, it would have beat out minecraft for best selling game.
There's apparently a spiritual successor to LBP coming out called restitched and it's on my wishlist and I think the game can make it big.
