I admit I haven't bought the game yet, as there is one simple issue that's make it or break it for me: The other attractions. From what I've seen, we can build our own stores and our own rollercoasters, and I saw an awesome video of some guy building a pirate-themed castle for the rollercoaster entrance.
But... what about the other attractions? Are they as neglected as in most other theme park sims, or can we build them too? For instance, can I build my own Haunted House attraction? I mean, that guy bulit a (small) castle for the rollercoaster entrance, so it shouldn't be too difficult to expand it as a Haunted House instead. What about Merry-Go-Rounds? Can I design one myself? Adding different things for the people to sit on, add decorations, lightning and so on? Same with Ferris Wheels, and all sorts of other attractions?
The problem is I'm not a big fan of rollercoasters, but I love creating my own stuff. I spent a long time creating an entire neighborhood in The Sims 4, spend countless hours in the Spore creature creator, love games like Minecraft (ironically, Minecraft is one of the few in the genre I don't like), and i love creating characters in RPGs more than I love playing them, most of the time. Heck, I even chose to be a writer, so I can create my own stories.
So anyway, the more customization we get, the better. Theme Parks are more than just rollercoasters, you know.
