Ooooh man, I had this sitting in a drawer for a couple of years now, as I didn’t have the patience to start another game (as I was playing a lot of World of Warcraft when I got it). I was soooo dumb.
Just as dumb as this game is. I mean, I don’t know what the fuck people are expecting. Of course we’re going to get overly-offensive raunchy games, shooting hamsters out of your butt, using farts to power a compressor, all this while roaming around a quiet, little, redneck, podunk, white-trash (Kick-ass) mountain town.
And that’s why it’s brilliant.
As a sequel of “South Park: The Stick of Truth”, which I played extensively on the Xbox 360, it continues the story properly and all the new game mechanics and features make it a solid title on its own. I won’t beat around the bush too much about the story itself, it feels like a good South Park episode and it provides a solid 20 hours of gameplay. I did do the fights on the lowest difficulty, because I was here for the story and the jokes, not for its competitive side.
So how was it playing it? Well, it was a blast! I haven’t spent a white night in a while playing video games (I think the last game that kept me up all night was Assassins Creed: Odyssey back in 2018) and I have to say it was well spent! The game graphics are on-point with the TV series and the story is well written, absurd and funny at the same time. So without further ado, this is a game I can recommend with my entire heart. It’s usually about 30 euros, but you can find it at like 10 euros, or part of some gamepass-like subscriptions. Five joysticks
