Meh, that's "new country"...

Not bad, but...not great.

I prefer it to be honest. I was raised on rocker roots and this reminds me of some of it.

He's amazing.

Though this is what captured me...



Granted, a cover, but rarely are covers better than the original.

@englanddg. I see you took my suggestions from prior discussions How did Theme Park Studio work out for you.

That isn't what we used.

 

[englanddg]

Still editing.

Time for you all to post.

That isn't RCT, so No-limits?

Still editing.

Time for you all to post.

Already did?

Yep.

Already did?

Great job Red and Vox!

 

[Voxel]

Yep.

Great job Red and Vox!

We tried. I wanted to build a ridable model but I had no time at all this week.

 

[DinoInstitute]

Good job guys! I loved the proposals. Well, probably The videos wont show up on my computer, but I enjoy all of the texts! I'll post a review tomorrow...that is what you all should be afraid of now!

 

[englanddg]

Stream of consciousness review?

HERE WE GO!

1) Wow, this music is GREAT!

2) The video editing is ok.

3) What is a Wetch? (I know, but I can't post it here) Why did you all choose that?

4) More great music!

5) The slide with the Wizard's Hideout was hard to read....I had to pause it. White on white? Bad idea.

6) Still hard to read the next slide...but is an intriguing concept!

7) There are pretty much no screens used in the "Legend of Jack Sparrow" concept, I've done it first hand. It's mostly live effects.

8) Excellent Merlin Bartender graphic!

9) Still hard to read the text!!!! You should have letterboxed it.

10) Camelot is very UK, but has NOTHING to do with Scotland.

11) Someone has been playing with video editing (looks at @MonorailRed)

12) All that aside, I'm still intrigued, what exactly is this ride going to be?

13) Who is Morgana? Was this plot twist required? And it's still hard to read that text.

14) And then the video starts going too fast...

15) Now I'm lost, is there a plot?

16) Excellent and unique ride design! I LOVE THAT!

17) It seems like you are grasping at concepts at this point...(the dragon)

18) Interesting that you turned this into a "dark ride" at the "end" that isn't the end...

19) I liked that you made the north end of the pavilion "scottish"

20) STILL HARD TO READ the text.



But better than a bagpipe cover of a popular song.


21) Interesting ride mechanics.

22) The map was...foresty...I wasn't sure what I was supposed to see?

23) The Grand Opening part was nice, but by now, I'd lost interest. I wasn't sure what I was looking at.

Overall, excellent as always, but seemed all over the place with concept.

Anyhow, there's my review.

I had little doubt in my mind that you all were going that route.

You didn't.

 

[englanddg]

After all this is over, I'll compare notes.

 

[englanddg]

I want to amend my review...

I think Sea did an excellent job of staying true to the culture of the UK (including Scotland), and overall made a fantastic presentation.

My reviews, as you all know, are nitpicks.

Overall, I LOVED the idea!

Anyhow, there's my review.

The idea was to blend the UK into one ride hence elements of Scotland, england, etc. I thought the morgana part got kicked out,, the Original concept (which got modified) was that you entered the cave which let do the lost city of Camalot, Camalot was buried year ago by Morgana in a fit of rage. Hence why it could never be found. From their you were gonna escape with the help of the spirit Merlin, but the dragon disrupts the spell causing you to travel through time. The Buried dragon comes from one of the legends. I think the plot escaped us after a bit to which I take alot of the blame for.

Are the dreaded reviews coming tonight? I still need to get mine in!

Go for it! You are no longer a competitor, so who cares? This thread is for us to talk honestly about the submissions and other things, so we all get better at it!

I got hints of that.

An incredibly unique concept.

Speaking of reviews I have one qualm about the use of Doctor Who. It's been suggested multiple times for a UK pavilion, including a variant created by @jdmdisney99 and myself. Hence why Sea did not go the who route.
