I am half tempted to get this since I love South Park and RPGs, plus it's a pretty crazy idea. But I usually avoid licensed games like the plague. The N64 FPS was god-awful.

I wouldn't mind it being shorter. RPGs are too time consuming and I barely have any time to play videogames anymore, much less RPGs for that matter. Considering the developer is Obsidian I'm sure the length will be decent based on their excellent story writing alone (ironic considering this is a South Park game). If it is less than 40 hours though, I may wait because $60 for a short game is pretty steep. wafflemoose fucked around with this message at 15:51 on Feb 11, 2014 |

It's a moot point arguing over if it's better on PC or console since you can use a controller on PC anyway. Most PC games have built-in 360 controller support. That being said it is tempting to get this for 360/PS3 so I can play on the big screen TV, it's alot easier to move a console to the big screen than it is to lug a PC tower to it.

Furism posted:I'm pretty sure that in one of the behind-the-scenes video they say our character is mute for some bullshit reason that only South Park can come up with. I think it's because Trey said that he didn't like main characters that talk, because what they say most often does not match up with what the player is thinking. They wanted to put you in the game.

Backhand posted:I'm sure this will qualify me as a whiny bitch or whatever, but will it be possible to play through the game pretty much ignoring the whole farting mechanic? I appreciate how witty South Park can be sometimes and just how over the top things can get, but I've always hated the toilet humor aspects of it. I don't care if it makes the game harder, I just want it to be possible. I'm pretty sure the farting will be used to help solve puzzles and to help debuff enemies. Besides, it's South Park, vulgar humor is kinda it's thing.

Seeing as Cartman says "A Jew, I guess we can't be friends" if you pick the Jew class, I wouldn't be surprised if the dialog changes to reflect your race, gender, and class choices.

Yeah, I think I'm going to get this. I've spent $60 on worse things. *cough* Duke Nukem Forever *cough* 12-15 hours is a good length considering I don't have as much time for games anymore and the gameplay and humor seems pretty rock solid.

Requested_Username posted:So I've got a weird bug where the game won't launch at all. The steam window for 'Preparing to launch South Park: The Stick of Truth' pops up and then closes like normal, but then it just reappears, then closes, and repeats endlessly Try verifying your cache? Most problems with Steam games go away if you verify cache.

I can't be the only one who has to fart on every NPC just to hear their reaction. I'm 30 and still find fart jokes funny. Rerolled as a Thief, way much more fun than Mage. There's a certain synergy to Mugging and then Backstabbing someone that I love taking advantage of and I heavily abuse Speed potions. Stacking bleeding damage rules.

I haven't had a problem with the QTEs, expect maybe for Kenny's Furry Friends attack. No matter how quickly I shake, it's random whenever Kenny survives or becomes rat chow.

I don't understand why people have such a hard time with the button mashing. I just mashed the buttons like crazy and managed to pass it. The game is alot easier to play with a 360 pad.

Yeah, it's hard to pretend it's make believe when my character is wielding an actual sword and is chucking broken beer bottles that he found in the sewers, and Butters is bashing my enemies' skulls in with a ball-peen hammer. I feel kinda bad beating up the kinder-gardeners whenever I want to test a equipment setup or skill.

Macaluso posted:You can only customize your own guy. It's okay though cause the buddies all manage themselves and level up with you. Also it might be a little game breaky if you could, say, put thorns on Butters. Not that the game isn't pretty easy anyway but still. Hopefully if there's a sequel, with longer length, they'll let you manage your buddies' equipment as well.

I'd rather have a game be too easy rather than be too balls-crushingly hard. I play games for fun and not prove my worthiness. Besides, I've already put up with that bullshit back in the NES days. Don't get me wrong I'd rather not have a game be a cakewalk, but dying over and over again on a section is unfun. This game's difficulty is just right. You have to pay attention at least or the enemies will wreck you poo poo, at least until you get your character built to steamroll over most fights. The only fight I really had trouble with was with Al Gore, but that fight is an exercise in abusing speed potions and debuffs really. wafflemoose fucked around with this message at 23:08 on Mar 11, 2014 |

The beer bottle is great for applying three debuffs on multiple targets at once. They'll get bleed, grossed out, and set on fire or freeze depending on which patch you use. Gross out does become less useful once the Nazi Zombies start showing up though since they're immune to it. EDIT: Playing this game also gives me a huge craving for Taco Bell. wafflemoose fucked around with this message at 19:56 on Mar 12, 2014 |

I never understood why making South Park into an FPS was considered a good idea, epsecially on the fog machine that they call the N64.

Wow, gently caress that abortion minigame. It's actually easier to do on a keyboard than on a 360 controller, what.  As much as I like him in the show, gently caress Randy in this game, everything he does is annoying and always impedes your progress in some way whenever he shows up. gently caress his fart training as well.

Well, I finished the game, poo poo sure got crazy near the end with visiting Canada, which apparently is an 8-bit RPG world, crawling around inside Mr. Slave's rear end to abort the snuke and having KENNY of all people be the final boss. Also, "screw you guys I'm going home." ROFL! Fun game, kinda burnt out on it though, will probably leave it alone for a while before going back to it and getting the rest of the achievements if I care to do such a thing. Now I've got a playthrough of New Vegas to do. wafflemoose fucked around with this message at 04:03 on Mar 29, 2014 |

I kept failing the dilation parts when using a 360 controller but easily passed it when I switched to keyboard. Instead of having to spin you just mash A and D.
