The Simon mini-game on the UFO is awesome, especially when it spazzes out and there is NO WAY you can follow along...

at a certain point you fight al gore and the first move he pulls is a boring global warming presentation that cast sleep and doom on you, i was worried of being inflicted with doom but if you check the status it trigger after 100 turns, that's really funny :sabu

i tought the nazi zombie's joke was funny but the game never moves on, by the time you get to the end you are fighting nazi zombie bacteria's and you realize the joke has overstayed it's welcome... i expected that the plot would go somewhere else,that my character level would go up to 20 instead of 15 and that i would get more weapon better than some random junk i bought from jimbo because it had high number
the final boss totaly feels like a normal encounter too, he doesn't use any special attack, he's not a giant robot monster or devil, he doesn't even have multiple phases... the only thing that makes it different is a gag where your party member are forced to leave the battle for one reason or another (except kartman who never enters in the first place because he's kartman)
the thing that really makes the game enjoyable it's that there is lot of variety and it's all executed with big detailed cartoony graphic, it never feels like it drags out and it's really well paced... the combat never gets hard,everything die's in a few hit and in fact later on i gained a special move that often instant-killed the whole enemy party
there are a few videogames joke that are funny (like an audio log complaining about the absurdity of audio logs) but most of the humor is made up by south park jokes,none the less i have watched only some south park episode and was still able to get most of them
one videogame joke that seems popular but fell flat on me

it' the part of the game where you visit canada which is represented as a 16-bit rpg, i tought it would be hilarious but the whole section is made up of repetitive music and several fetch quest in what i can't decide if it's just a bad part of the game or a very meta meta-joke
by south park tradition is also full of jokes that are gross so it doesn't surprise me that this got censored,but the most gross bit is the one i mention in the previous post which is...

when you fight a gnome while in the background your parent have sex with each other... then you do a QTE to dodge a pair of testicle's :snoop
seriously the internet moral brigade gets in arm everytime there is a pair of anime tittays but this get absolutely no mention at all? i understand it's south park and all but i'm pretty sure that this is harder to explain to a bystander than "the sorceress has big tits"
i also find funny about himu complaining about not being able to make a female character because there is a part of the game that is pretty sexist that wouldn't really work if they gave you such an option :lol
but anyway,it was good and unlike similiar rpg recent effort it wasn't made up of stuff from other games,stuff repeated from previous chapter,quest that involve collecting 5 flowers and overused fantasy/anime/jrpg clichè so thumbs up!
and the goth kid dialogue sounded like goth kid dialogue! unlike lightning returns.....
How is combat tedious? Battles don't last more than 1 turn usually, 2 at most. Meanwhile you can avoid most battles through pre-battle puzzles like interacting with an environment to cause the enemies to get electrocuted and bypass a battle. Plus you don't need to grind because you hit max level hours before the end of the game.
If you're finding it tedious, I'm wondering if you're missing something as to how the combat works.
Oh no, I get how the combat works. Unlike you I'm finding this game piss easy and as a result it's boring and tedious for me. I mean it's the same basic actions to go through every single fight with very little change up on how the enemies attack. Sure they do status effects but that's nothing my unlimited supply of money and items can't fix. Plus I'm a fighter so I pulverize everything in my way and what I can't kill I have my ally demolish with their special attacks. So yeah, battles do last just one or two rounds at most for me.
I'm finding everything but the gameplay to be awesome. It's just unfortunate I need to slog through a terrible RPG to enjoy a really well crafted love letter to South Park*.
BUT I will say that I think it's really cool that they're making an RPG for casuals and fans of the show. I can bitch about the gameplay since I'm voicing my opinion but really Obsidian probably made the right choice considering the target market so I can't say I disagree with what they've done. And I'm just hating on the gameplay here so before I get anyone's panties in a bunch I think everything else about the game is pretty solid.

* Seriously though, are there any new jokes? Everything here is recycled content and while I find it amusing it's all shit I've seen before.
