RCTW VS Planet Coaster: End Thoughts

[@Megablueforce]

Technically, Planet Coaster IS the sequel to RollerCoaster Tycoon 3. Both are made by Frontier Developments.

[@IronAnimations]

=o I NEVER NOTICED THAT =D

[@ShortandWide]

wait...you right xD

[@Farxygo]

True

[@SuperBabyMario0C]

No technically Tycoon World is the sequel, but spiritually Planet Coaster is lmao come on bro

[@mexicanpoptart17]

RCTW not made by frontier = not sequel... should be banished from every domain.

[@alienlabs]

So... the game I was waiting for, the follow up to RCT3... it's NOT RCT4. The team who developed RCT3 was busy on Planet Coaster, NOT on RCT4. Thank you SO much for clearing this out!!

[@hwalnut7202]

alienlabs Atari actually made RCT4 for mobile but it's a fucking atrocity

[@ismael5912]

@@hwalnut7202 WE CAN AGREE AHAHAHAHA

[@SandwichRobot]

Frontier has been making roller coaster games for as long as I can remember and they have still delivered to this day and Planet coaster is the RCT 4 I have dreamed of when I was 7 years old playing rct 3 I would have never imagined

[@clax5612]

You have to say that PC does have one of (if to the best) communities every created. The youtubers are so helpful (Like Silvarett and DeLadySigner) they even work with their subscribers (I've had the luxury to hang out with both) and can tell you that the master builders are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. They absolutely love what they do, and it really shows. But don't forget the forums. Everyone is extremely helpful, always wanting to help. It is an amazing game, with amazing people playing it.

[@PixusPanic]

true, that, but there are still its annoying fanboys.

[@clax5612]

Fruit Queen Yeah, by atleast they're backing something that deserves fanboys

[@PixusPanic]

yep

[@MILNEAGE]

Dude ! You did amazing while the hype lasted and a great video to end on! I hope you keep up game reviews because you do an excellent job with them but do whatever you want I'll still watch ! We will never forget these days :) have a good one sir

[@ToshimonsterRealm]

MILNEAGE I have to agree.. Also hi 0/ :P

[@orangeTadpole]

To think all of this started with one game developed mostly by one guy, which was written entirely in Assembly.

[@ShortandWide]

For me the more impressive thing is he wrote thousands of different AI for the guests giving them all "unique" personalities.

[@xxxgames4458]

TheMuskyChode really? Seems like the guest have the same thoughts.

[@evoandy]

And literally sold from the backs of cereal boxes.

[@Bogeyboy-kz8uu]

I've bought both games and prefer Planet Coaster. it looks, and runs better and on scenery it is a lot better and more flexible. with RCTW, it gives you pre made stations which is quite nice but the rollercoaster editor is soooo much better. I like fixed pieces for the chain lift, but I like everything else to be flexible for me. I've wanted that feature since RCT3. Even in planet coaster when trying to do something customizable with the coaster, it still jerks and doesn't look as realistic as RCTW. I'd say I spend 2/3 of my time on Planet Coaster and 1/3 on RCTW.

[@SirKolass]

You bought that pile of shit and you didn't refund it? Some people are just beyond my understanding

[@bendyzip9111]

Some people get annoyed at when npcs don’t go on super scary roller coaster but I like that feature cause it makes it feel like the people are actually alive! For instance in roller coaster tycoon 3 npcs would go on any ride even if it killed them

[@bruhchannel1216]

intensity got split up into intensity and fear dang

[@haydenclark1913]

Sorry for being kind of off topic but the ride at 1:14 (the orange one) is at my home town Sixflags! Hahaha Anyways Yeah I used a friends copy of RCTW when it first came out and got bored and annoyed within 10 minutes. I decided to wait a little while before I went back into games like these, and I just started playing Planet Coaster. I feel like an idiot for waiting this long to get it, because indeed it kicks RCTW in the ass 6 ways to Sunday.

[@MelissaTimea99]

Can you review 'Wheel of Fortune' for the Commodore 64? I'm thinking of getting it.

[@Sirnekk]

no

[@kobaltwolf437]

Big RCT3 fan here. Thanks for helping me make up my mind. Gonna try Planet Coaster and if it sucks in my eyes, I'll just go back to 3 XD

Just an FYI I haven't noticed anyone else clarify, PlanCo is NOT build on Unity.

[@AaronLanterman]

Well done video, but I need to push back a bit on the Unity slam at 6:45. Unity is just a tool; it can be used well or used poorly depending on the craftsman using it.

[@AeroAngle]

where do i buy planet coaster cheap?

[@vector9586]

With rumors of planet coaster 2 in the early access phase, I’m excited to see how frontier will innovate on their new product. Planet zoo and Jurassic world evolution are all great games. I’m glad to see frontier getting the props they deserve and I’m excited for their future.

[@Anal_Flute]

I bought Planet Coaster on sale a year ago and my only regret is that I never bought it sooner.

[@ThrillsofColdplay]

I hope it will look a little better

[@Stataze]

I've just started playing Kotor II sith lords because of you. I am sorry to say I'm having so much fun with it. it's such an old game and I'm having more fun than with newer titles. keep going man you are great.

[@tubalubsplaysdestiny9612]

Talk about the Trainz games. A new one is coming soon

[@EUKARYOTIK]

Ok, I'm extremely loyal to the RCT series; but I think we know which one wins here.

[@FunkyBaconArts]

Really feeling bad for the RCT:World devs. I mean, it is kind of unfair to put a team of amateurs up against a team of experts. =(

[@kwow3641]

There's not even any competition here - Planet Coaster rips RCTW to shreds. I've been giving RCTW a try for the last few days (when it decides not to crash) and it's not even in the same league.

[@WhiteSharkconcac]

Wow you sound really wise. I really like your style of going straight to the point.

[@lukeyholloway]

I have a Dell Inspiron 15 Gaming Laptop, Intel i7 Quad Core (7700HQ) 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, NVIDIA GTX 1050Ti (4GB) What settings can I play this game on?

[@ismael5912]

you can play both Planet Coaster and RCTW with max graphics and mods with this specs

[@reasonable370]

IMO, the fact that it was made in Unity has no impact on its success. I mean, Cities Skylines was a massive hit and it was made in Unity. It all comes down to the developer and how much effort they put into the game.

[@thecoasterconnoisseurs837]

If the RCTW developers actually spent time developing the characters it would be a GREAT game.

[@adrikerkhofs8892]

Parkitect alpha review ? You can update your last review because it's like 7 monyhs old.

[@einlukas32]

soooo.... what about Parkitect? How does it compare?

[@IronAnimations]

parkitect is still better than RCTW.... and thats saying something

[@YAUUN]

I'm not actually sure that Atari achieved what they wanted. Planet Coaster was wildly successful and I doubt Roller Coaster Tycoon World did more than break even. They had to pay 3 separate development teams although obviously the 1st 2 didn't get their full payday as they were kicked off early. IMO for Atari to be successful, they would have had to make bank & crush Frontier Developments. I'm no fan of Frontier Developments for various reasons, but even I have to admit Planet Coaster was a worthy successor to the Roller Coaster Tycoon series. Also you can't really say the failure of RCTW was partly due to the choice of Unity. There are great, genre defining games on Unity, just see Kerbal Space Program & Cities Skylines. However the use of Unity is often a warning sign for a project like this as due to it's ease of use, low cost & easily available pre-made assets it is the tool of choice of hack studios.

[@ToshimonsterRealm]

I Think that you should do more 'vs' episodes - imo, they are the mode entertaining, and seem to get the most views. (Although they are all coaster related). I think there is a market out there for vs topics, rather than general reviews, as there are many places that do generalised reviews. Alot of people search [input game #1] vs [input game #2]. But anyway, thanks for that book on roller coaster games. I will never forget the 'Bring out ur dead.. Here we go.. But I'm not dead!"... *classic*

[@MrBenchrest]

I love this game , My first sim build game an now i am hooked lol. Great info to on the two games now it all makes sense

[@ArifDiamanta]

Please keep us updated with RCTW development. :)

[@raoulsmits9748]

i bought rct world without knowing about planet coaster and found ot rctworld wouldn't even start up. got no refund. still love planet coaster and rct 1, 2 and 3

[@micherj99]

At the end of the day, both games can never live up to the original RCT

[@imperialwolf7872]

The whole Force Awakens analogy hasn't exactly aged well Planet Coaster is more like Empire Strikes Back and Roller Coaster Tycoon World is more like Rise Of Skywalker

[@WillowTitov]

100k people bought RCTW as of this video. Only just under 30k more bought it since then. 460k people bought PC as of this video. That went up by almost 240k since then. The fact that the numbers for PC are almost/over double of what RCTW has is just proof that, in terms of RCT, Atari is nothing without Frontier. The only reason RCT3 was such a success was because Frontier did a great job on it. They took what Chris Sawyer and Infogrames made and created their own twist on it, giving us the charming yet revolutionary game (for its time and genre) that is RCT3. And guess what, Atari? Frontier did it again. And hey, let's also not forget Texel Raptor's little gem, "Parkitect". It's like RCT2 with improved graphics, an updated engine, and more stuff! It's still in early access, and it still has bugs here and there (as many early access games do), but the devs are active and working with their small (56k strong) community. I just can't wait to see the numbers when it gets released.

[@bruhchannel1216]

chris sawyer: every stall is pure personality. you can easly tell whats what. and the flat rides. even tho they are just that. uneditable. they can always fit atari: basic building with a little sign on top. flat rides are super goofy looking

[@Censtudios]

Planet Coaster is the real sequel to RCT3... Just because some schmuck came in and took the name RCT World, doesn't mean they get credit for making the sequel. Frontier made all the RCT games, Atari decided to continue with the RCT name, so Frontier was like "bitch u taking our title? ok, we'll make a new one, no problem, we'll win anyway". RCTW is just a different game with the same name, made to confuse people and benefit from old fans.

[@sbaguetti6838]

Actually chris Sawyer made RCT 1 and 2, Frontier made the RCT2 expansions. Then Chris Sawyer sold the rights to Atari, then Atari hired Frontier to make RCT3. So they were the actual developers, Atari just published the game.

[@jetster4117]

Man, I just wonder who will win.

[@DreamMixGames]

ay dude can we talk on discord or something like that?

[@F1fan4eva]

That star wars ep1v7 analogy did not age well

[@Sirnekk]

Yknow, everyone keeps saying that but I wholeheartedly disagree. I think planet coaster was perfectly serviceable if not missing some new innovations of it's own and I think ep 7 still is the same way even if 8 and 9 missed the mark

[@jjh2923]

I agree that planet coaster is way better than rollercoaster tycoon world. Just wanted to point out that (at least in my opinion) Rollercoaster tycoon world does have better rollarcoaster building. Other than that Planet coaster destroys RCTW.

[@ThrillsofColdplay]

The early trailer of rctw looks like rct3 with the avatars

[@MrOudoum]

Watching this while downloading "Panet Coaster Summer Update".

[@apprentice_jedi]

I actually like The Prequels better than the Sequel trilogy. :/

[@nano14102]

The comparison he made hasn't aged very well

[@LesFreresDuFedora]

It would be interesting to review older games. Kotor is a great pick. If you review Kotor 2, there's a really interesting story of how the game was made and was revised over the years. I'd like to see you cover old gems. Majesty: Gold edition is a great one, and it's pretty cheap on steam.

[@joshy1024]

Planet Coaster is better because the frame rate is always smooth and there's autosave and RCTW is worse since it crashes everytime so you have to manually save every 5 minutes, and it starts to do this weird laggy effect even though it's still running at 60fps

[@DJG333]

Kevin Ventura RCTW has much more problems than that.

[@peztec6832]

Please Review Transport Tycoon.

[@ramadhandian7459]

RCT 2 is still legend ~~ im still play planet coaster and rct2 now ~~ great games

[@ismael5912]

i personally prefer the 3 rd opus. but its subjective

[@penknight8532]

That Star Wars analogy was horrible. You should of put Star Wars a New Hope on Planet Coaster. Some of us just call it Star Wars because it was the First Star Wars in the 70s.

[@ThrillsofColdplay]

Planet Coaster obviously I wish the avatars were a bit more realistic but they look good anyway obviously better then rctw it’s a shame that Planet Coaster gets laggy pretty quick I would’ve gotten every dlc if they weren’t so expensive

[@Temporary_Doctor]

If RCTW had only sold ~100K copies, how could it hsbd possibly made millions?

[@BloodRider1914]

KOTOR Is pretty fun to play. I sure lost a good few hours of my life on that

[@R.JoshField]

I was with you the moment you compared Star Wars Ep1 to 7 and put the latter on top. That trilogy was just straight up BAD.

[@Sirnekk]

I’m so sick of people forgetting how well received force awakens was. People liked that movie just fine.

[@miguelmitchelldasilva]

Your estimate on how much they made is wayyyyy off

[@aschamy]

its more of a Simulator, but I think you should review No Limiys Roller Coaster 2... it's not a Game per say, but if you like roller coasters its really fun, has awsome graphics and its a more realistic aproach... just a thought

[@fnarusevicius]

The best roller coaster game is the one with have the Frontier Developments. It's a fact!

[@TheVideoGametuts]

I'm not really a Star Wars fan, but is Episode 1 the one with Darth Maul and the pod racing? Because I actually rather enjoyed that one. Never saw any of the new Star Wars, but from what I've heard, they really went away from George Lucas's vision and really made some questionable plot choices. My buddy is a big Star Wars fan and I remember him telling me about how Disney changed Luke Skywalker's character to be a depressed old man, when Lucas wouldve never done that. It also seems like the new Star Wars movies really are trying to be "woke" by purposely adding women and minority characters, just for the sake of being "woke". Idk, I've never seen them, but from what I've seen and heard from other people, the new ones suck.

[@hat9958]

Honestly RTCW is good because not everyone can afford a good computer and spend a lot of money on Planet Coaster because RCTW is cheap and can run good on even Intel video cards.

[@manusoftar]

You realize you didn't give a single shred of proove that RollerCoaster Tcoon World is indeed worse than Planet Coaster??? just kept repeating hearsay... Both games look fine from the graphical point of view, both games do what the are supposed to do, I really don't get it why people insist on RollerCoaster Tycoon World is simply worse than PlanetCoaster. Also, both development teams didn't hear people at all. There are gigantic threads and topics on both official forums (of each game), asking for Dark Ride stuff like Omnimovers and things like that. They simply disregarded all that. Back in the day, a guy "called" Imageneer John, gave us Omnimovers and other similar vehicles on RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and people started creating amazing dark rides just like Disney and Universal, well, a lot, and I mean A LOT of people (including me), where expecting to have native support for these kind of things on any of these two games or even on both. Several years after the release of both games, we have absolutely nothing regarding that stuff and that speaks for itself. These developers don't care at all about their customers.

[@Sirnekk]

You’re just saying “oh both bad because dark rides” but planet coaster actually allows you to make dark rides AND there’s omnimovers so. You’re just wrong on every level

[@Sirnekk]

Like there isn’t one single objective measurement in which rollercoaster tycoon performed better.

[@Sirnekk]

No both games do not look good on a graphical level. RCTW looks like a mobile game. It’s load times are also considerably longer than PC. Like what is wrong with you?

[@manusoftar]

@@Sirnekk there are NOT omnimovers, trust me I triple checked, you can look it by yourself, you can check even the official PlanetCoaster forums where people is still asking for Omnimovers/Peoplemovers... I wish there where any, but there are not. Only RCT 3 had, and it was not even official, it was a mod created by the great Imagineer John. And yes, I'm saying that both games are more or less the same, you can do basically the same things in each game, yeah the don't look exactly the same but they look ok enough.

[@manusoftar]

@@Sirnekk I don't agree with that, they both look similar, neither of them is actually reallistic, both games are kinda cartoony looking (specially the peeps).

[@simentheanimal7039]

Review Zoo tycoon 2

[@overlordjames6644]

I disagree with your point on starwars the prequel movies were better than the sequel movies in a lot of ways. Story, fight scenes, character development, not trying to be a copy of the OG trilogy. Most of the people who like and defend the new movies are the kind of people who wet themselves every time there is a female lead in anything and shout people down with buzzwords if they find anything wrong with it. This is closer to what they did with Kojima where they kicked him then tried to make their own metal gear game only for it to be a complete train wreck.

[@aaron_d_henderson1984]

using SW episode 1 vs episode 7 is a terrible metaphor... both movies are actually terrible, but nowadays people would favor episode one because they have more respect for the prequel trilogy over the sequel trilogy... so comparing one terrible movie to another terrible movie kinda makes you lose whatever point you were trying to make... are both games as terrible as those movies? you could have chosen a better metaphor is all im saying LOL

[@Sirnekk]

I think you really gotta consider that episode 8 had not come out yet. At the time, 7 was largely considered a fun movie which was all it needed to be

[@dannr4]

atari should have worked together with frointer again. that game would be legendery

[@sbaguetti6838]

it would've been just planet coaster, but called Roller Coaster Tycoon World, because Atari doesn't get involved in game development.

[@westonshugarts4331]

6:00. Yep.

[@Astronimal]

Ah Rollercoaster Tycoon World. Definitely deserves the price "Most Anticipated Garbage of the Century" award. Sure, some might give it to No Man's Sky, but I don't feel it doesn't deserve the price as much as RCTW does. The fact they even dared to slap on the Rollercoaster Tycoon name to this garbage, proves how much Atari cares for their franchises. Not even Chris Sawyer's magical touch could fix this junk. No, this game signs the end of the RCT franchise and it is a real shame it ends with such garbage. Glad we already have a successor in Planet Coaster AND Parkitect.
