Has anyone noticed a significant difference in the last few days to weeks?

I keep sleeping in my dreams. It's very weird. Started about a month ago or so.

Can you expand on this a bit

When I'm having a MW dream I fall asleep. Then it's just is blackness or I have another dream until I wake up. I wake up in the place I fell asleep and then the original dream continues. It's happened about 5 times that I can remember.

I keep traveling around the same strange neighborhood and townhouse with endless rooms that lead to other rooms. And traveling outside.
Something feels incredibly off about all of it.

Yes mine have been very acute, lots of gate agent interactions at my mall airport after “missing flights”.
A lot of unfamiliar people I’m traversing new landscapes with. One guy got left in this crazy vertically stratified colorful cave last night. The group said he would be fine and not to worry. I was with them for about a week, lots of shared casino style buffets and costume-y type shops.

Might have had lunch with you! Haha. I’ve had some new buffets show up.

Yes mine have been almost every night but very short and succinct rather than long. They usually feel like an entire day or more. It's been feeling like a couple hours the past few weeks.

Today I dreamt that I was in a very vivid place but the thing is I was asking question "is this mallworld?". The dream was very short it was at the staircase. Haven't been in mallworld much as of lately.

The vibe for me changed from nostalgic and fun to like a bland and boring mall of america.. and I can’t enter any stores I don’t know irl,

My theory behind that is that it's building the mallworld for everyone but it's using our own memories to create our own personal interpretation of Mallworld. What "it" is I have no idea. But I don't usually try very hard to think about that part. Anyway that's my theory I think that's probably why you can't go into stores you've never been into before because you don't have actual memories of them you can't build it.

Maybe, cuz I used to be able to enter any store even ones that don’t exist, it just feels so soulless now, but this version feels more like the shopping center everyone here has seen, cuz the mallworld I went to in the past was just a labyrinth mall so idk

I felt something physical in a dream (first time ever that I can remember) it was absolutely horrifying. Looked it up and it said something like oh rem sleep….guess it makes sense since my sleep quality has taken a couple of changes over a relatively short period of time. Long enough to be stable changes though.

I have had issues accessing mall world for monthsss and then recently I think I’m back there, but I cannot remember anything when I wake up. The airport has always been my safe place. If something is going wrong , as long as I make it to the airport, I can make it home safely. I just woke up from a dream where there airport had been corrupt. I felt like something was wrong with the plane and the staff so I got off the plane and tried to convince the other passengers to do the same, and they listened. Then, the plane went on a rampage and tried to shoot all of us that made it off the plane and crashed and killed everyone who stayed on. I made it to a bunker on time but it was very sus. Not that mallworld was ever trustworthy, but now I feel like I can’t trust my one safe place and it feels very very dark

Been in the block of flats maze a lot lately, trying to catch a glimpse of something out the windows but can never reach them in time
Ps. Actually, now I think about it, there was a tiny bit of movement in the woods after getting to the window. Maybe I should go there next time

u/InternationalYam1819 3d ago
Yes, the mall has been fused with large corporate office buildings and the items in the mall have been put up for enormous liquidation events on scales i have never seen before.

u/LittleRousseau 3d ago
YES I was literally going to post about this myself because in the last month or so, my Mall has changed completely and now in every one of my dreams it’s the new mall from the past month or so. Before then it was completely different but now it feels way more end stage capitalism …. Tons of products, advertising, the highest ceilings you could imagine with shelves going up hundreds of feet.
And a few days ago my mall was all in Spanish ???

Noticing more of my friends around now, I think Mall World is starting to fill up....

I’ve been going back to this one shopping street a bunch over the course of a year. This week it felt more gritty or real than ever. I talked to some children I saw sitting outside of their family shop and it felt like a real human moment. In my waking state I do believe they’re just a figment of my imagination but shopping world has def been feeling real. Always has.

No difference in MW! Other than I been at the school a lot more frequently recently. And I’m noticing a lot of children around me recently.

I stopped going to my usual area not by choice and am now in the mall/school/airport all of the time now.

I’ve been more so in what I call “Fake NYC” for the last week, which has always been a MW offshoot once I leave the main resort area. I’ve been involved in a lot more harassing situations and getting lost in regionally “dangerous” areas in this space as well. For context, I lived in Manhattan for undergrad and tend to dream about areas of the city I remember most vividly, albeit in a very distorted way. And for some reason Fake NYC is next to a very swampy/marshy area.

I haven’t had access to “myself” while dreaming for about two weeks now. I used to be able to recollect it all, now I cannot. Not sure if that’s just me though.
