It's very pleasant but it doesn't look European to me, it looks more like what Americans think Europe looks like if that makes sense?
Don't get me wrong, it looks nice, but it looks very much like what I'd expect in an American theme park. Which I guess is more so what you're aiming for anyway.

That's kind of the point. Each of the areas are kind of a stereotypical, simplified view of their locations. Like you would see in a park with this size and budget.
Works for a terrible pseudo-European theme. I hope that you mean this is the Northern Entrance with a European theme, and not an entrance with a Northern European theme
Probably my favourite area in the park. You were off to a great start with Eastwinds, then you lost it with some terrible boring stuff, and now you're doing well again. Hope you keep building like this!
Not sold on the ground floor windows. Nor the super bright glass door in the entrance complex.
It's kind of funny that you're intentionally building something that is supposed to be crappy simply because it's how a real park of that size and scale would do it.
I will never understand the appeal of realism in that way.

It's a way of creating a certain atmosphere... I don't like ultra realism but I like this way of thinking and it works pretty well here!
GForce's work is always technically clean and refined. I'm just baffled by the want to recreate shitty real life things that are cliche and uninspired. It's like Picasso only wanting to paint trailer parks or Shakespeare only wanting to write ditties about oranges.
I can buy the want to recreate CP or make up a Busch garden park and even to some extent SF parks because of their coasters, but I'm not the biggest fan for small, cheap, and cliched themes like this.
In my opinion the houses are too samey. They should at least differ a bit, which right now they only do through shutter color and roof color really. That in itself though is flawed because from what I have seen it's mostly the shutters that are all quite similar and the roof colors would probably be in accordance to the typical materials that are used for roofs in the area. Well anyway, the roof color isn't a problem for me but the shutters need to change I'd say. It's just not realistic that they'd all be different colors of the palette while all having a solid color scheme.
I like the shutters for exactly the same reason, they fit the narrative of the park, both being a cartoonesque and ignorant interpretation of Europe/Germany. G, I love that you called it 'authentic European architecture'. I don't like shitty themes combined with shitty RCT, but this is rock solid RCT. And distinct.
technically it's pretty good, but it feels the same as all the other stuff you've made. all of the buildings are basically copies of each other it seems like. most of them are just the same 3 tile building with some changes in the windows and trim. having so many of the same building ruins the screen for me, and it seems to be something you do pretty often. it is also pretty hard to distinguish this area from all of the other areas in your park as they all same the same foliage, path type, etc.. it just looks like starpointe v3, and after seeing this style of park making so many times i'm getting tired of it. i want you to try building more unique stuff, and not just the same old boring stuff. 55-60% in my eyes.

The roofs aren't the same height so it wouldn't really look right. I think what is there is the best option.
Thanks Faas, and gdb I guess.

Nice to see you doing some other themes rather than the normal bland realistic stuff. My favorite screen of yours.

Idk what you did to make the buildings not look tiny af, but it's really good. This and Patriot are my two favorite things in the park.
The flowers by the water though, on the right. That needs help.
