This demonstrates EXACTLY why MK, DHS, and an AC without actors will look like. It's kinda like being in a very cool location with NOBODY to interact with. MK without the Trolley Show; DHS without the CoH or magicians; AC without the Colonel. You get that cold feeling of urban exploration. Of course, with MK and DHS, you've got thousands of others there exploring too (and riding rides). But, you get the idea...
Copy or not. I'd want to go. The original is gone. Glad that someone picked up the baton!
This is one of the criticisms of SWGE - that it’s a thematically impressive set piece but lacks the vibrancy of the (planned) actors and streetmosphere (?) before they were cut for budgetary reasons.
I guess its still not open yet? That article was from April of last year and not much info on the website.Maybe some of you have been following this but, these owners were huge AC fans and they decided to recreate elements mixed with TikI and supper club. They are doing a great job and the Instagram is on point…

As for AC in DS, VR is stupid and it won’t be that. I guessing if anything it would be a bar experience with no actors. You have to remember that Imagineering has been gutted, lost some OGs, and now is lead by an ex Gensler alum. People who design airports and generic hospitality venues. It won’t be anything close to the original. More importantly, the succubus that is Chapek won’t allow us to have anything cool, original, and IP-less.
While I think DS is probably a better fit, I agree Boardwalk desperately needs something.
It's the closest thing out there and I am sure they put equity into it. Money, tears and sweat. Maybe keeping an open mind and seeing it before judging it...
Agreed!
As I have been following them it seems to have taken longer to get going. But they have had casting calls and seem to be putting finishing touches on things. We shall see!
We already have the Garry's Mod version... why would I want to pay for another one?
never been to boardwalk. something like this would make me want to visit!
Well, my inside voices tell me that it's going to be the Tangled treatment all over again.
It'd be great to have performers in there. That video feels like someone is urban exploring with a bow and arrow.
I find the proposition of VOLUNTEER actors very intriguing!Maybe some of you have been following this but, these owners were huge AC fans and they decided to recreate elements mixed with TikI and supper club. They are doing a great job and the Instagram is on point…
