South Park The Stick of Truth First Impressions.

So yeah, game just released on PC, played a good bit and here is what I think right now.... Ok, after watching the Black Friday trilogy earlier, the game takes place after those events. The game starts off with 70s style animation that reminds me of that old Lord of The Rings movie, it sets everything up nicely in the good ole South Park style. The graphics options for the PC are none existent, which I think is ok considering that it is pretty much and interactive version of the show. You cant really show off some awesome lighting, tessellation of what ever in this. The game only took about T-Minus 10 seconds to start getting funny and a few more to get hilarious and vulgar. I mean seriously, one of the first things you can do is take a dump! Then you can pick it up and use it as a weapon, it is called the "Shit Nugget"... I am not joking. Before anything you can customize your own character to pretty satisfying results. The game even pokes fun at how your character cannot talk and even breaks the 4th wall every once in a while. It is pretty much aware that it is a game, and does everything to the 100th degree. Such as putting LOTS of references to past episodes, you can go look in Cartmans closet and see lots of stuff in there, such as the Faith +1 records. Everything is great fan service, but how is it the actual game stuff? Well, surprisingly deep! I am not usually one for turn based combat, but this is EXTREMELY satisfying and it requires a bit of strategy. The game does a great, and memorable job at teaching you everything you need to know, all while giving you a few laughs. You can also customize your character even more with level specific weapons, gear, potions, everything to get you going. I know Im being pretty vague, but I am trying to keep it as fresh as I can for you guys. Just know that this game is actually pretty awesome!
