Early Access Review
I'm one of the few people who actually didn't enjoy this game.

I'm having trouble finding reasons to play Partkitect over RCT2/3. Outside of the fact that this is on a newer engine.

I wasn't a fan of the coaster building. I'm sure in time I would have picked it up. The camera angle isn't very helpfup (although you can swivel a full 360º) Using different color terrian didn't actually seem like it was improving my park but instead adding an awkard color to it. The game is very simplistic and didn't feel polished to me.

These may not be strong agruments points but as someone who played a lot of RCT2/3 and even World... I find it diffucuilt to want to play another Park sim that feels so empty and incomplete.

The biggest turn off is the $17.99 price tag.

If it was only $5-6 bucks I wouldn't have end up refunding it, but at $17.99 I rather use that money towards a game I'll play.

--------

I would suggest to buy RCT3. T3 still in the park Park Sim to date, outside of Planet Coaster which is extremley expensive right now. Stay awy from World. World has some great additions but that game is FAR from playable.

Nope I meant RCT3.

I actually like 3. Once you get use to it, the 3D is very nice. My biggest flaw with RCT3 is the terrian editor. Anytime i use it, i just screwd up the pathing of my whole park. It's hard to fixed.

Parkitech terrian editor is easy to use but seemed limited.

With buying rct 3 you ment buying rct 1 or 2 I hope.

And in the end you would have a better game for $17.99. You aren't stuck with this early alpha build in the end, you will have the full, finished, polished game once it gets there. All that requires is patience and understanding that what is there now is close to a shell of what the game will finally be.

A better product for $17.99, is what I expected.

Don't buy any game that isn't release.... Is normally my rule, i should have followed.

Still waiting for Starbound to come out haha.

"The game is very simplistic and didn't feel polished to me."

It's early access, what did you expect? A game that's 3 months away from full release?
