This character creation comes from u/z0mbab3, and it is a match for those who remember the film. In thiscustom design inDisney Dreamlight Valley, they made sure to start the new look with the character’s memorable red hair color. From there, they matched the purple seashell bra she wears for a large part of the film but had to get especially creative when dealing with the rest of the mermaid portion of Ariel. To cover the character’s lower half, thisDisney Dreamlight Valleyplayer created a green dress to match Ariel’s tail and added a mixture of blue and white to make it appear as though she is bursting out of the water.
The main image that u/z0mbab3 seems to be aiming for with thischaracter creation inDisney Dreamlight Valleyis a moment that occurs just after Ariel encounters Prince Eric for the first time. As Ariel sings a reprise to “Part of Your World,” she leans forward on a rock as a wave crashes just behind her. This scene is conveyed really well in this character creation even though the character is simply standing in water.
Character customization allows players of some games to create amazing tributes to their favorite franchises and people. This freedom does allow for odd creations that don’t fit in well with the game world, but while some may not like it, it can lead to memorable moments, especially in cutscenes.
Then again, these tributes help show how memorable certain characters have become and how games with defined characters can cement themselves with players. On top of this, there will likely be those who prefer not having to spend a great deal of time creating their in-game look. Either way, this player did a great job recreatingAriel inDisney Dreamlight Valley.
Disney Dreamlight Valleyis available now on Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
