Dissecting Dimensions: The Lego Dimensions Starter Pack (Review, Unboxing, & More!)

[@amesstarline5482]

So, Lego Dimensions has Gandalf the Grey, Batman, Superman, and Every Single [Ninjago] Ranger. Surprised no one made an Ultimate Showdown spoof.

[@anarchomando7707]

@LegoMei but they might as well be rangers

[@playererror4044]

Hold on... is the foundation of all elements a fucking baseplate! That's... actually fucking incredible

[@jacobs.9661]

I didn't realize this fact until well after I beat the game for the first time. But yes it is indeed absolutely brilliant.

[@gracekim1998]

Yeah it’s pretty cool 😊

[@robbycooper6787]

2:11 yes the $80 minimum for the game on Wii U, stand alone ps4 copy, and nfc tags, then a free app on an android phone with nfc and boom 100%.

[@hodeyfu7617]

That’s about right. I bought the Wii U box set for $20. Then the PS4 disk for about $20. I just bought a complete nfc set for $50. I do have a couple original sets also.

[@pennycarty7794]

God this is far more in depth than I honestly expected. This is insanely high-quality and I'm excited to see more

[@cart00nbr07]

And to think I owe this game the credit for the inspiration that allowed me to start writing my magnum opis, a fanfiction now almost 7 years in the making, beginning release on WattPad starting March 25th. Shameless plug aside, I can't believe it's been so long since this game came out, and the fact that I owe my entire career path to it is honestly truly something special to me. This game truly is a shock, but a welcome one that I greatly look forward to continuing on through my spiritual successor story.

[@anarchomando7707]

Link please?

[@cart00nbr07]

@@anarchomando7707 Once I get closer to release, absolutely. Time is something I need more of.

[@cdbsstudios4456]

This is by far my favorite Lego Game. I got it as soon as it came out and only got 100% completion a couple weeks ago. Man this game takes a long time.

[@Lokear]

This game is one of my favorites. I have owned it since it came out and still haven't finished it. The story is amazing, the gameplay is fun (especially for a toys-to-life game), and it's always worth coming back to just to jam the Doctor into Aperture Science whilst driving Homer's car. Plus, the voice cast is amazing.

[@simple7708]

I am a huge fan of Lego Dimensions. Collected all characters and vehicles (not just the plates). I just wish we had gotten more Dimensions content

[@NoobeeGaming]

Sad to see Gandalfs "I shall ... pass this over to someone else" missing in the BIOS

[@TheLadyLiddell]

I need to grab some popcorn because this is going to be a fascinating ride. Wait... there's a THIRD GLaDOS song???

[@ShadowStreak]

I know right?!?!?

[@trf386]

Love this game, took 7 years to buy all the characters. It takes around 6 months to complete the game. I know it inside and out. The hardest gold brick to obtain is the final sonic race in the sonic world It takes around 2 hours of trying to master it.

[@polytanksan5761]

It's been so long since I played this game that somehow I remember how the end of Lego Jurassic world teased it better than actual Lego dimensions

[@turtleanton6539]

What happens in that one

[@polytanksan5761]

@@turtleanton6539 if your talking about the ending I mentioned then what basically happens is after you do every world (or island I should say) there's an after credits scene shows that one guy from the first Jurassic park finds one of the portal piece things from Lego dimensions at that dig site then it glows after he finds it

[@fignatoli-guevara5826]

That post credits scene was actually removed from the Nintendo Switch port in 2018

[@polytanksan5761]

@@fignatoli-guevara5826 really? I guess it kinda makes sense since dimensions isn't on switch

[@GiffanyCD]

I'm glad I'm not the only one to like this game

[@gos_707]

Man, what are age we live in for Lego Dimensions.

[@sorasun7757]

Ah yes, i LOVE this game, the crossover love it, the toys to life thing loved it too. Heck, i played this game a few months ago.

[@kailiahmoon]

I owned some Lego Mixels toys and liked them very much!

[@aratsorceress]

i loved all of the doctor who references in both the level and separate level pack. really awesome to see!

[@jacobs.9661]

Your mention of Dimensions become harder to play makes me think about something I LOVE to think about. Is it possible to mod the game so it doesn't need the NFC tags, or even the Toy Pad at all? I mean it SEEMS possible, modders have done crazier things before, and I would LOVE to see it happen!

[@gracekim1998]

I’d love to play this game personally if it weren’t for the toy part being so necessary 😅

[@Logi_Bear-sv9jg]

really looking forward to more parts man! please keep up the good work! love the commentary :)

[@ShadowStreak]

Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying it so far, I should have another Dimensions video out by the end of the month!

[@mammon8683]

Great job as always, my dude.

[@Roaming_Octopus]

excited for the series! thanks for keeping this project going with how old the game is lol

Really high-quality game and video, thanks!

[@drybonesmunchakoopas5143]

Perfection as a video

[@Songwritersbehindthecurtain]

Tom Kane is also an excellent yoda too.

[@Pe3ter-P00L]

If ld ever comes back they should bring characters like Knuckles Ben 10 flash etc

[@hutt_boi7281]

The fact I searched for a video like this a day after it released is.... Just some insane comic destiny or some shit

[@kuitaranheatmorus9932]

Lovely video

Skip 10:55

[@dancaine3975]

Glad to know I accidentally got the best version? (PS4) Nice breakdown, looking forward to the Doctor Who video!

[@Glamikuns]

To be fair, i think Lego already owned quite a bit of those licenses

[@titan4257]

I don't think they owned the majority.

[@lorenacorrea7675]

At the end cutscene there is a a possibility of a Lego Dimensions sequel in 2022

[@overdrive3823]

Good video just a couple of things Batman turns into the Lego movie version with different abilities such as gliding when in the Lego movie and Lego batman movie or with specific red bricks The batmobiles third rebuild has sonar smash Chima got minikits in the first foundation Prime level

[@guyonyoutube3850]

The chima minikits show up in the second foundation prime level, The Final Showdown

[@pinksuithenry7560]

How do you do the vehicles with nfc tags, so do you need 3 different nfc tags for one vehicle that has different abilities or does it just work on one? I really need to know if someone can help

[@uprising4c19]

Surprised no levels didn't account for flying characters. The lego batman games seemed to make sure said issue was addressed, but not this? Oversight?

[@uprising4c19]

Also I see why Elemental got to shine in Doctor Who-Jennifer Coleman's got her talent art going on-Summon Bolt! Summon Flare! Summon Earth! Summon Aqua!

[@jasonpertuz7747]

I Was Thinking If They Can Put Ghostbusters: Afterlife In LEGO Dimensions

[@macaemeia146]

And nexo Knights Would be pretty cool

[@seankim8908]

How much were the stickers alone, Shadow???

[@WeegeeSlayer123]

Sucks that in order to make official massive media crossovers, you gotta aquire tons of expensive legal permissions to do so.

[@observersbirdhouse]

One odd plot element that stands out in the story of Lego Dimensions are the Foundation elements. Like there are items that make sense like Ruby Slippers and the One Ring but then we have stuff like Kryptonite which is one of many of just one planet that's only note worthy facts about it are it blew up and superman was born there. Then we have stuff like cake which wasn't shown getting stolen from the portal room which implies Lord Vortech already got a cake so the portal adventure was kind of pointless. Then we have items that are given more of a spotlight then they are in there home series at best it's something like the ghost radar thing from Ghostbusters, at worse it's Chen's staff that isn't that important in the grand scale of Ninjago considering when the staff was destroyed he was able to act out his plans without the staff. So in conclusion Foundation elements are weird.

[@ShockwaveFPSStudios]

@UCrUZbopalWiTjg28theHmjA Dude, Spoilers.

[@slothoverlord4388]

I'll give Chen's Staff this, it at least makes sense. It acts as a conduit for Elemental Powers which are the very core of Ninjago's world. Sure the Golden Weapons would be entirely more fitting, and have greater significance overall, but at this point in the series they were destroyed and the Golden Armour was who-knows-where so I commend the devs for thinking up another MacGuffin to use

[@observersbirdhouse]

@@slothoverlord4388 The thing is Chens staff was made from a crystal from a mountain which then brings us back to the kryptonite comparison. Some times I wish that the game would come out some time after season 5 because then we have more material to work with other that just Chen's Staff and Armor that we may or may not forget about.

[@ShockwaveFPSStudios]

@@slothoverlord4388 Theres also the fact that in the game Batman Wildestyle and Gandalf took the Cake from Gladdos so that Lord Vortech wouldn't get all of the Foundation Elements. The Cake along with the other Foundation Elements would later be stolen by the Bad Guys near the end of the game's story mode. Also its called Foundation Elements, not the Fountain Elements.

[@observersbirdhouse]

@@ShockwaveFPSStudios So I checked the cutscene of them stealing the foundation elements and there was Chens Staff, Ghost Radar, the Coin and everything else that you got from the levels except cake.
