South Park: The Fractured But Whole

Well worth the wait. Building off of the massive success of The Stick of Truth, Fractured But Whole has an incredibly satisfying combat system that leaves you constantly eager for the next fight, exemplary and natural dialogue from everyone in town, and a truly epic soundtrack.

South Park The Fractured But Whole is as good as it is humorous. And that says a lot about the quality of the game.

A great sequel with much more going on, and is built with a lot of love and respect for the series it comes from.

This game is filled with fan-service, though the game does not offer the exact same depth we know from the series. Thankfully the videogame itself is a lot of fun and will keep you laughing for many hours.

I think The Fractured but Whole wouldn't suffer if it had a few hours knocked off it, but at the same time, I'm kind of sad to be done with it, too.

The real saving grace is that the game is mechanically one of the best, most accessible RPGs crafted in a long time.

South Park: The Fractured But Whole isn’t an even experience. Some moments are fun and pretty funny, but others feel pretty uninspired. Exploring the town of South Park isn’t as novel this time out, and it largely isn’t as funny. RPG systems like combat, looting and crafting are just involved enough to make them interesting, but the firm emphasis is on the story and humor of the show. With the plot taking a while to develop and with so many jokes just feeling played out, loose on their landings or easy and obvious, it’s tough to really get excited to head back down to South Park.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

The combat and music are done well, and they went to town with the presentation here, but the writing is significantly worse than its predecessor. The Stick of Truth felt more in line with South Park’s dark and offensive humor. This one felt more sanitized in both gameplay and story. It’s still worth giving it a whirl. Not a bad game at all.

A comparably worse game than Stick of Truth, but not much worse. The show's writing and tone are still carried over with aplomb, but what is on display here was mostly done better in this game's predecessor. Still, the slight improvements to gameplay are a welcome change, and while the narrative is a bit spastic and hard to follow, this game is an overall solid follow-up to Stick of Truth. It is unfortunate that this game has to live in its predecessor's shadow, as it might have been perceived as a better game had the former not knocked it out of the park in terms of presentation.

играть не интересно, шутки про пердеж, опять? механика хуже первой части

I FINALLY beat this game today, and i can safely say that the last 3-4 hours were a 100% waste of time and didn't need to be in the game whatsoever. This game has the worst plot out of any game I've ever played by far, it's RARELY funny, and the story literally seems like it was written by 6 year olds. The Stick Of Truth absolutely blows this game out of the water. The character customization at later levels in this game is pretty much the only cool thing you with experience in Fractured But Whole.
