That's members of the public, not us. For comparison, PortAventura and BPB each score four. Maybe they're the opinions you should be listening to - the visiting non-enthusiastic members of the public who have made it the highest rated theme park in the world?
The opinions of Europa I've heard from somebody I am good friends with and a few people at the PBE events, great park in terms of their operations and theme but the rides just aren't thrilling enough, that is what holds me back.
Considering those people who went have done over 100 coasters throughout the world with the ECC and RCCGB, I think they have a respectable opinion.
Well Europa isn't about thrills, so anyone looking purely for white knuckle attractions may not leave the park feeling as satisfied as the majority of others. Keep an open mind about the place and you'll be much more receptive. Too many people and too many awards contradict what others may have said to you.

But then again, with Europe's second tallest hypercoaster, one of the highly rated GCI's and a 4 inverting launched megacoaster with lapbars - it's hardly lacking in thrills is it?
