[3] Suggestions: DLC's amusement park / Animate animatronics / Walking around yourself.

DLC's amusement park:
To have special DLC's for amusement parks such as Disney / Efteling / Universal studios,
It seems to me a nice addition to existing parks to have their attributes in PlanetCoaster to recreate their creations or to make a creation yourself.

Animate animatronics:
Self animatronics animate seems like a nice addition to people to do their own creation in an Animatronic,
to let themselves determine how an Animatronic moves.

Walking around yourself:
You can already have a POV if you press a visitor,
its a nice addition to really be able to walk around, and not what a visitor thinks where he wants to walk! ;-)

I like the self-animated animatronics idea, but its tricky with doing real-life park DLCs due to licensing and copyrights. We got the micro-DLCs of The Munsters, BttF and Dark Rider, along with Steel Vengeance in an update; but licensing packs based on real rides, real themes, and real brands are costly, plus the criticism players would have if something didn't make it into the pack or if something wasn't done correctly it's a make-it or break-it deal.

I personally wouldn't mind seeing more rides make into the game based on real world attractions. You gotta look at it from a constructive point of view. Say they did get the rights to put out a Disney DLC. Let's say they included rides like Pirates of the Carribean, the Haunted Mansion, Casey Junior and It's a Small World. The details were there, but other components from those rides didn't make it into the game. And it isn't even that, you would then have players who wanted Star Wars Land attractions or Marvel themed attractions. And what about the numerous iconic Disney characters- whether its animatronics or entertainers. And then there's the numerous versions of Disney parks all around the world, and the many sister parks that Disney owns- Epcot, Animal Kingdom, MGM Studios, etc.. A Disney DLC, IMO, wouldn't hold up. That's why I love Planet Coaster because we can still recreate rides and attractions based on real world parks, we just have to get extra creative to get around certain scenes and themes.

Now getting licensed content from Cedar Fair properties and Six Flags properties probably wouldn't be that hard to accomplish and we already know this by Steel Vengeance update. But still, I don't know if many players would want a Six Flags DLC or a Cedar Point DLC or even a Carowinds/Kings Island DLC. I prefer Frontier stick to its original content and its trademark. I've seen several recreation of parks that are almost spot-on; creators find their way around the theming.

Frontier has done an incredible job bringing theme park building to the next level. I think if they released their own versions of ride staples like The Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, Splash Mountain, etc. into the game then a lot of players wouldn't want the need to have packs based on real parks. Plus, once Frontier makes an announcement in the near or distant future that Planet Coaster is coming to an end then we'll see MOD support and custom content surface and with the amount of detail this game has, we'll see a lot of content creators bringing real world rides and attractions to the game.

There's the following already, not sure if you're aware of it:

TegidCam – Invisible guest camera
We told you it’d be back...
How to activate: Rename a guest or staff member to “TEGIDCAM” to enter the camera mode.

Does not work, but you already have '' Guest camera '', but I really want to be able to walk around the park myself.
