South Park: The Stick of Truth

[imweasel]

Is there any C&C?

Nope.

What about DLCs?

Nothing has been announced yet other than the pre-order stuff.

I am expecting Ubisoft to announce a DLC or an expansion soon though. Quite a bit of content was cut from the game in the past year, it should be enough to make a few DLCs.

I have officially spent more time cussing out loud at this game than laughing out loud. Trial-and-error QTEs that chastise you for 30 seconds in between attempts. I heard you the fucking first time. Just let me try again.

Last night I stopped at Randy's abortion. I couldn't figure how to do the suction part (the vacuum seems to always go to the side and rip Randy's balls off, no matter what I do).

 

[Onholyservicebound]

Just try it again, I failed the first time but it's really not that hard, just push the opposite mouse button when they get stuck. If you're using left to suck press right, and vice versa.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Has anyone found the translated lyrics to the extended version of Princess Kenny theme song that the game has (there certainly was no singing about being a hovercraft in the shorter one in A Song Of Ass And Fire)?

 

[FeelTheRads]

BG2 wasn't filler-heavy, but there's probably 15 hrs of non-filler content at absolute most.

Woah woah. Then filler must be anything that's not straight out part of the main quest? In that case I figure this game must be about 5 hours long. Guess it's totally worth $60.

I know the creators of South Park fucked DLCs last year, but I think Obsidian A Ubisoft Subsidiary has planted some DLC hooks, like

Spoiler

Goth Kids cemetery haunt, Jimbo's hunting trip, invasion of Crab People and Cartman's final ploy.

I was hoping for the Crab People invasion so hard when I found their secret lair.

I have quite a backlog at the moment. Is this one promising? I'm intrigued!

It would be fantastic if these DLCs were sizeable, quest-focused ones like the New Vegas DLCs. I'm hoping that Chris Avellone and Eric Fenstermaker get to write one each - I wonder if Matt and Trey would be up for that.

I also heared that the Mall is closed in the game for the whole time. If this is true, that could be a good DLC area.

Thanks, it finally worked. The game at no point says you have to used directional keys. I had a similar problem with the goth dance part, where I was doing all the right moves, except with WASD instead of the arrows.

 

[Tommy Wiseau]

It was fun, but kinda short.

That wouldn't work because

a UFO lands on it after the first day.

Yes, yes, and wait.... yes! OMG, I feel like a target demographic. I'm getting a warm fuzzy feeling. Can this be what it feels like to enter heaven!? Yes! Omg Yes!

So, I've beaten the game. The Princess Kenny anime bit was hilarious.


Overall I enjoyed the game quite a bit and I feel like it did a few interesting things; the strong points that I mentioned earlier all remained there until the end. In that regard, Obsidian and South Park Studios did a really good job. It is, however, not only a pretty poor RPG underneath - it's also a pretty poor JRPG when compared to those that are actually good or at least decent, which has a lot to do with its highly limited and simplistic sidequest/main quest structure.

Still, nice job all things considered.

Has anyone found the translated lyrics to the extended version of Princess Kenny theme song that the game has (there certainly was no singing about being a hovercraft in the shorter one in A Song Of Ass And Fire)?

I found the full version on youtube:

It sounds like it's just the same verse looped.

Nah the hovercraft bit is new I think.

Many jokes in the game are done better in the TV show. You should watch it!

 

[Crooked Bee]

Maybe someday... I barely have time to play video games these days, I don't really watch any tv shows.

It gets rebuilt though. Could be post-ending DLC.

It's imperfect but good. Unless money means nothing to you I would wait for a price drop. $60 is pretty ridiculous for this.

 

[dryan]

I still haven't finished it, but it still seems to me like a good South Park episode (reminds me of the early seasons) more than a good game.

I agree... It's worth playing, but you might as well just rent it for a weekend. Especially with Dark Souls II coming up there's no way I can justify dropping $60 USD on this.
