IGN gave it a 9/10

http://www.metacritic.com/game/plays...stick-of-truth

Metacritic so far at an 86 overall.

Just got it in the mail...heard it is outstanding. Turn Based RPG style, feels like watching the show

The Franchise 03-04-2014 06:48 PM

I've seen game play and it looks awesome. The only downfall I've heard so far is that it's about 15 hours....If you do everything there is to do in it.

Buck 03-04-2014 07:09 PM

There is no multiplayer aspect to this game right?

If not I will wait til its $20 or less on a Steam Sale.

Yeah, looks like a lot of fun. I love South Park, turn based RPGs, and don't care about the lack of multi-player. But I'm not paying 60 bucks for 15 total hours of game play.

Pasta Little Brioni 03-04-2014 07:19 PM

15 hours....jfc

Sure-Oz 03-04-2014 07:19 PM

Wasn't the last of us about 15-16 hours to complete. The uncharted games took 8-10 hrs

this. I thought they said the main story line is 15hours.

ign, said most people will spend countless hours doing other stuff. The main problem is the four classes are different in name only.

regardless, wait til price drop.

Yeah there is extra stuff to go through for sure. I got it with amazon using a partial gift card. Seems like user reviews are high as well. Should be a great purchase later when it does drop.

hometeam 03-04-2014 08:46 PM

I played for several hours today. Engaging story, but the game is nothing spectacular. You can wait.

Yeah but for the genre of gameplay it's pretty short. Any game that has battle and class systems like Final Fantasy should be in the 30-40 range. I was going to rent it because with Dark Souls 2 and Titanfall this month I can't afford all these amazing games.

Gonzo 03-04-2014 10:51 PM

I dislike turn based rpg's but I did pre-order this a year ago. Ill probably wait a few months to get it when the price drops and put my deposit towards watch dogs or something.

Rausch 03-05-2014 01:03 AM

I've had a YLOD dead box for almost 6 months.

My return box should be here any day and I'm ****ing itching for a good game day.

I'm a fan of TBRPGS, SP, and fart jokes...

Ceej 03-05-2014 07:18 AM

I was just thinking about the SP game on n64 this past week...

The cow launcher and Terrence and Philip (?) fart dolls were hilarious.

Canofbier 03-05-2014 08:26 AM

I got 4-5 hours into this game yesterday, and it's been a blast. It's very accurate to the show in a ton of ways (and there is a lot of attention to detail) so it feels like you're sitting and watching a long episode of the show. The gameplay is like Paper Mario, which is a good thing in my eyes. The game was also decently difficult until I unlocked the DLC equipment (for pre-ordering), but the game is definitely catching back up with me since that stuff is low-level.

I'll agree that the different classes seem to be more or less the same, unfortunately; combat is mostly driven by the equipment you have.

I'm not sure about paying $60, but I got the game and DLC together for under $50 and I'd say that it's been worth it so far.

Ragged Robin 03-05-2014 10:04 AM

Was thinking about picking this up but $60? Nah.. I'll wait until it's 30-40 maybe.

Yup. 15 hours is not enough for me to buy a game at 60 bucks.

I'll still snag it some day on a steam sale though, because it does look cool as hell.

Anyong Bluth 03-05-2014 01:16 PM

It actually got released finally?

The original studio that made the game went belly up just as it was almost finished, and they had to find a new developer to take over. Not sure what they kept or scrapped from the 1st studio, but it ended up pushing the game back by over a year.

I was excited about it when it was supposed to be originally released, and then it kept getting pushed back again and again, so I pretty much forget about it.

Glad to hear it's getting such positive reviews.

GMG has it for $45.

I am loving this.

The QTE button mashing is bullshit. I would rather just take the damage and use a health pack than break my hand trying.

Sure-Oz 03-12-2014 09:57 PM

I'm about 4-5 hours in...funny as hell and fun. Def gotta be a south park fan. Worth the purchase at 30 imo

Gonzo 03-12-2014 10:12 PM

Couldn't help myself. Picked it up last week after watching some of the gameplay online. It's an excellent game. I was pleasantly surprised.
I've beat the main storyline twice and I keep finding new stuff to do.

When you get about midway thru, you can select Jimmy as your battle buddy. I highly suggest doing so... Some funny shit there.

The Franchise 03-18-2014 02:49 PM

Is it or is it not worth the $60? I've watched Let's Play videos and it looks ****ing awesome...but $60 is a ton of money if there isn't a huge difference between the classes.

The enjoyment is there but if i had to do over again id wait till it dropped to atleast 40 to purchase

This is def the complete South Park experience. I'm still playing through. Anyone that has watched SP and enjoyed it over the years has to get it eventually.

Its a good game.

Its not as good as some games I have payed much less for.

Its like going to see a south park movie when it first comes out. It will drop, and the movie will be just as good if you wait a bit.

Gonzo 03-18-2014 08:06 PM

I've played the complete game three times now and I'm working on the fourth. It's really fricken funny. I wouldn't doubt it if they come out with some funny ass DLC in the next few months.

Sure-Oz 03-23-2014 08:55 AM

Stick of truth is 44.99 on Amazon today

Picked it up for $50 from Gamestop (had a coupon) and I'm ****ing loving it.

It's not exactly challenging but it's really damned entertaining.

Wait till the Mr. Slave level. You'll snot.

Pasta Little Brioni 03-25-2014 05:48 PM

Mr. Slave level? IN!!!

KcMizzou 03-25-2014 07:37 PM

I still really want this. But I'll wait. Stupid priorities.

RedDread 03-25-2014 08:20 PM

I loved this game. Exactly like an extended episode. They make fun of some classic video game mechanics all throughout the game. The way they handle the silent protaganist (you) was hilarious, as well as Cartman's explanation for why they used a turn-based combat system.

Overall I only had two complaints. One was the length. Typically in these types of games you would see a playtime of over 20 hours. I think mine clocked in at 15 and that was with me hunting for just about every secret and collectible I could find. The other should be fixed very easily in a patch. There needs to be either a "Sell all junk" button OR the game needs to keep highlighting the top stack so that you don't have to click on it, click sell stack, and do that about 100 times whenever you go to a shop. It's not as big a deal in the console version since it does highlight the top stack each time, but on PC it blows.

I understand they probably want you to read all the clever show references they came up with for the junk items in the game, but damn that shit is annoying.

Sure-Oz 03-25-2014 10:00 PM

For another hour on Amazon it is down to 42.99

Yeah, I think they could've found a way to extend the gameplay a little more. I expect some DLC here in the next few months which will help.
Its a great game, really funny.

I'm not sure how much longer I have left in the game based on where I'm at....but I was aware of the length before I bought the game....so it's not THAT big of a deal to me. Plus I'm interested to see if the 2nd playthrough will be as funny or as fun as the 1st one has been....especially with a new class.

The sell all button is desperately needed. Plus maybe it was just me....but there hasn't been a time when I was worried about money. I've never had to make a decision like in other RPGs.

Rausch 08-20-2014 03:43 AM

Just got this today and put about 3 hours in. So far it's strange but fun.

Has there been any DLC since the release?...
