Given free choice - OpenRCT2 with RCT1+RCT2 or with RCT Classic?

[Thwomp]

Hey there, I am interested in OpenRCT2, and at the moment I don't have copies of either RCT1+RCT2, or a copy of RCT Classic to play it with.

So given I am starting "clean" and have a free choice, should I buy copies of RCT1+RCT2, or should I buy a copy of RCT Classic, to use with OpenRCT2? Are there pros and cons of each choice that I should consider?

Cheers!

You want RCT2 (and optionally RCT1). Although OpenRCT2 can work with RCT Classic, it is a bit more awkward to set up IIRC and I'm not sure if all of the assets are supported yet.

I always recommend using RCT1+RCT2. It is less work and provides the full experience. Using RCT Classic assets has no advantages and is more work to set up.
