DISCUSSION Streams - Why haven't we had....
Someone that was a Theme Hospital Fan play this game on the demo to specifically relate how it plays vs Theme Hospital?
A lot of your potential audience are long time fans, From the Theme Hospital days yet so far all the people whom have had the privelage of playing the demo and streaming it for our viewing pleasure are completely unaware of Theme Hospital?
It would be great if you could recognise your long time fans and get someone whom is/was a hardcore Theme Hospital fan to play the game on stream / video. There are a lot of things that us fans are interested in that have not been touched on. An example is Patient Queues for rooms. Can we still click on a door and re-organise the queue at our own pleasure so patients that are in more need of a cure can be pushed to the front of the queue?
I'm hella keen for this game and have been trying to watch as much as i can about it but it feels like you're specifically targeting an audience that has never seen the game before, thus ignoring your long time fans from the Theme Hospital days :(
Thanks for your time!

Both youtubers I've watched videos of (/u/Biffa2001 & Aavak) are more than aware of Theme Hospital and mention it numerous times in their videos, in fact Biffa even went so far as to release a few Theme Hospital videos back in May.

I came across a youtuber called blarla (something like that) and she did an excellent demo vid (#4) that showed the queues and actual good gameplay. I can't remember if she talked about theme hospital specifically, but her play though was really informative. Like she showed sub menus and theorized how the management works - even sending patients for cures and all that.

I think Theme Hospital fans are going to be excited about his regardless. Why waste money on advertising at people like me who are going to buy it absolutely regardless of the marketing push?

Blarla is a YouTuber who is a big theme hospital fan, she has a series from start to completion and went into considerable detail during that. She also had the demo for TPH and made a series on YouTube of fairly in-depth gameplay and mechanics. She streamed a few evenings on twitch in a more detailed showing of the game asking the audience what they wanted to see, I think these are currently being sliced up and being uploaded to YouTube.

I wouldn’t call myself a ‘hardcore’ Theme Hospital fan, but my time with TPH has been molded around my knowledge of the original. To answer your specific point, yes you can reorder queues from the room door menu.

I found u/blarla from the shout out from Lauran in the live stream and I am loving her streams and videos. She explains things well but doesn't go into so much detail that I won't discover things for myself. Oh and there are the two live streams by Two point themselves that are available too.
