South Park: The Stick of Truth (PRE-RELEASE DISCUSSION)

[Duraframe300]

Would have got the game, but no way in hell I am buying a censored version of a game. For shame.

The only thing censored in the german pc verison of South Park are swastikas.

You didn't really expect they wouldn't be censored right?

Steam says "gewaltgeminderte version" (less violence) on the shop page, why is gaben lying to me?

Gaben secretly hates just you.....

Seriously, though. Here's confirmation by way of someone with a review copy

Showing swastika to germans is a violent act.

Obligatory:

 

[Grimlorn]

Showing swastika to germans is a violent act.

I think people are just afraid that Nazi Germany will rise again and try to take over the world if Germans are exposed to too many swastikas.

 

[Clockwork Knight]

More along the lines of germans being afraid that media vultures would go "Look! Someone displayed a swastika in Germany and no one freaked out! Is Hitler coming back???" . I wouldn't want to take the risk, either.

I broke down and preordered the game. This an hour or so after making a post lambasting people who preorder games.


Yeah.

 

[Tigranes]

25% off PC download at Green Man Gaming. Legit, good site. I'm tempted just because I finished M&M X and need something, but I might hold off for some Codex Commentary. Code is good until Mar 5.

Grimlorn All the more reason to have a ginger class, they can have special resistances due to being soulless, but can't cast magic or be affected by blessings or curses. They can also have a special soul drain ability that if used on vulnerable enemies turns them into ginger thralls . However when engorged on soul energy they become extremely vulnerable to blessings, curses and magic. Fortunately they can expel the soul energy with enhanced attacks or diabolical magic, just like in RL.

I think they are the vampire class in this game. You might turn into them probably(I think i remember a video where we saw a kid that turned into a ginger), but i guess you wouldn't be able to talk to Cartman to continue the plot if you are a ginger.

Website has an interactive skill tree for the classes up

I felt they missed something on the classes. Since there is a "Jew" class the other classes seems so... normal. instead it should have been: Bully, Jew, Poor and Crazy. Okay, I couldn't come up with something good for mage.

 

[felipepepe]

Nah, that would be too "try hard". It is funny exactly because the kids are larping with classes from RPGs, but one of them is Jew.

I thought it was supposed to come out tomorrow?

 

[Xor]

I think people outside the US are getting it on the 6th.

 

[Crooked Bee]

US vs Europe, the usual thing.

Unfunny. The joke is a reference to an old episode of South Park where the boys are pretending to be Lord of the Rings characters:

"Ho, I am Cartman the mighty wizard, this is Stan the noble knight and Kyle the Jew."
"I told you not to call me that, fatass!"

 

[kris]

But the others are so uninspired.

[Tribal Sarah]

Not sure about the game length. 15 hrs for a $60 rpg sounds like bullshit.

 

[Hobo Elf]

I could've sworn that last time I checked it said that it was going to be released on the 4th. Seems like Gabe pulled a fast one right at the last minute.

 

[Eyeball]

But the others are so uninspired.

That's the joke.

Ding ding ding winnar!

 

[Clockwork Knight]

What if they added thirty hours of grinding and fetch quests, would that make the price fairer

Ubisoft and South Park Studio are trying too hard to cover up the fact that this is an Obsidian Production.
The duo should have never contracted those Irvine developers in the first place. They want their Skyrim, they should try Zenimax.

Well, if you don't want to pay monies for a game, you might consider begging, sucking dick or pirating.
