[OpenRCT2] Six Flags Magic Mountain (No Commentary, Backlogging 26)
This is probably my least favorite of the Six Flags parks.
This mountain is actually super annoying to build for, around, and up to with paths and other things. Those support costs for higher structures stack up FAST. Also, the Park Value goal takes a while to reach, and since your rides are constantly losing value as they age, it's even worse for base RCT2 players. With OpenRCT2 you can refurbish rides for a modest cost to bump them back up, but you still need to save up the cash for all of them! Also, there's a tower you need to destroy or guests will get lost and not know how to get down, which will tank your Park Rating, and also, did I mention your loan is already up to 50,000 from the get go?
On top of that, there's a LOT of paths just going everywhere, and lots of trees, scenery, rides, etc. just covering your view of everything as well. I was still finding places to put benches down long after the initial placements to fix the park. At least there are some nice rides already in the park. A lot of work went into making them for this scenario, so it's got that going for it I guess. Other than that, not many positive to work with.
