How much content is there in base game?

[Count D'Cinamon]

I've been wanting this game for a while but the monetization model is a bit much to me atm for DLC. With that said i doubt i could buy much of the DLC at least in a short period of time. So i wonder, is the base game offer you enough content already to enjoy it? Or does it feels like missing some stuff that's chopped up into DLCs?

i just got the base game 2 weeks ago and almost 100 hrs played already, loads of fun for me.

The selection of rides is pretty big in the base game. Only a couple of RCT classics like the chairlift and splash boats are locked behind DLC. The scenery is actually pretty bare bones, but the good stuff, special effects, are mostly from vanilla.

Arguably the best part of the game, downloading parks from the workshop allows you to play but not save dlc content you don't have.

The packs themselves are all bad value at their current price. One really unique ride per pack tops, few scenery pieces if any, repetition from previous packs recently. Nothing even remotely close to a gameplay enhancing expansion pack.

You don't need the dlc to enjoy it use your imagination let your mind go wild that being said you can buy the dlc you want dont have to buy all if you decide to buy any I recomend the spooky dlc amd the adventure and studio dlc loads of fun as Well

Almost no content, most of the content is behind a paywall/DLC DON'T BUY THIS :@

Pisses me off that I can't acquire certain parks for my fictional chain due to DLC requirements.

I'm not sure what the problem is with the price of DLC. People will pay £50 for a console game then go look up the cheat codes. How long did we play RCT? Even with the arrival of Planet Coaster RCT3 is going strong. Surely the price of the Planet Coaster base game with all extras is worth the ten years or so that you will play? Even if you only play it for 5 years it's worth it.

while maybe thats true that its worth for years to come but as i said im not in a situation where i can shell in money to buy the game + all DLCs, at least not within a short period of time. I know that i wont prob able to buy all dlcs or maybe even any, along with the base game at least for a while so i just wanna make sure if this game doesnt go that path where in order to enjoy the game you need to own every single DLCs

and also this game doesny have the best regional price for my country mean the price is quite high for a game.

I don't think people would be complaining as much if they'd taken that extra DLC development time fixing 3 year old bugs, adding meaningful gameplay mechanics, or say make this game playable on current hardware by doing a dx12 version.

Instead of addressing the two biggest complaints on the forums, performance and lack of management (seriously try staying in business with an entrance fee park without emptying the park every year), they've released a deluge of bite-sized reskin packs Sims-style. That's not going to get many players returning for long.

I hope it has lots of content without dlc

I bought the base game in a sale for around $5, sofar around 60hrs I think. I like it alot. The base game offers me about everything I wanted in RCT3. I think I would pay maximum $20 for base game. Currently, dlc doesn't bother me too much, I think they are expensive. I might buy the world fair pack in next sale
