[@Snaq_Paq]

I feel like what made Fractured But Whole work was that South Park had changed a good bit between it and Stick of Truth's release. There was enough to really shake things up. That really isn't the case here. Snow Day was arguably cooked because the source material was run dry. Not saying South Park fell off (it's a bit inconsistent tho). It's just that you can only make so many games based on the same thing before you realize there's little new to go on. Edit: To be clear, the lack of original material is no excuse for the gameplay to be as repetitive as it is or the landscapes to be so barren.

[@chrisdiokno5600]

Some suggest it shoulda been Good Times with Weapons based

[@XxDyneXxFreeEnergyx]

South park between 2014-2017

[@katlicks]

I'm in the same boat, they basically have 1 last great premise to go off (Good Times With Weapons/Anime/Ninjas) but South Park really hasn't gone "Big" for a long while. Which seeing the serialization is just kinda odd, seems like a really missed opportunity to get really creative with it.

[@Snaq_Paq]

@@XxDyneXxFreeEnergyx A lot happened in those 3 years

[@BluePhoenix_]

What's worse is, that the fractured but whole hints at the new kid potentially becoming a villain, which could have worked perfectly with the other kids trying to keep them from becoming OP again.

[@scootinand]

I kind of wish South Park as a franchise would disappear for a little bit. I'd like to see a movie version of Book of Mormon and for the duo to create something entirely new, as well. I think the pressures of keeping up with the weight of the South Park name as well as Matt and Trey's approach to the series currently is just making everything feel a bit weak. Just can it for a few years and come back strong

[@chancedream1583]

[@SpongesonicPictures]

With the small amount of levels, lack of checkpoints, random card perks, and trying to get players to replay already existing levels, a part of me wonders if this was intended to be a Roguelike at some point, but then that idea got scrapped. If that's what happened, it's a shame, because just having a lack of checkpoints and random upgrades isn't what makes Roguelikes fun. The genre thrives off of quick runs that encourage the player to try and try again until they get it right, not off of one boring level that takes an hour to get through. The random upgrades in Roguelikes are meant to encourage players to find new strategies and synergies, instead of just relying on what works like what happened in your playthrough. Progress also needs to happen very fast in a run so that the player has something to latch onto, rather than constantly feeling weak all the time. Honestly, if this game *had* gone the Roguelike route, with levels that only take about 20 minutes to beat but encourage multiple playthroughs, it maybe wouldn't have been too bad.

[@fryguy9704]

Yeah, South Park should stick to 2D after the disaster that was South Park n64. It just seems jarring to see cutscenes being 2D and playing 3D.

[@stigmaoftherose]

I still thought this game was a remake of the n64 game because why else would they do a snow themed 3D game. But it's not a high quality remake of a game that was bad and instead just something new and terrible.

[@antoinedesgagnes9969]

Yeah, South Park is the name of a town, but the game doesn't really care about this fictional geographic entity. The intro cinematic couould have been about the characters sent in another place instead of being about a snowstorm and the rest of the game would still work.

All it takes are 3 Google searches to understand the state of this game: Stick of Truth: Obsidian in their prime, right around when they did New Vegas Fractured but Whole: Ubisoft San Francisco, definitely have the resources to make a good game Snow Day: Question LLC, a small indie developer with some cool games under their belt, but not in line with the triple a quality of the past two for sure

I've seen an interview with the creators saying they wanted a more simple multiplayer game since one show creator already got the game type he is into which is rpgs where the other likes multiplayer. yes this game isn't as good as the others but if you want a game that feels like that play that. but for someone that likes rouge likes and multiplayer games where I can just enjoy time with my siblings or friends this is exactly what I was looking for a game i can beat in a day with my buds and experience it in a genre i love as well. I hope the dlc makes it more enjoyable for the mass audience that didn't like it but for me I'm glad I got this game and hope to have my option help anyone else that felt like I did. yes only 3 weapons per type but play a rouge like its usually from 3 to 6 characters to choose from and the dame repetitive cards its just the genre we are in but for what they made and being the first they made I definitely enjoy it and still have it downloaded on my ps5

[@spirittail4958]

Honestly I feel like this game could've been something like pvz's garden warfare where you do have a story mode with AI like you have here but you can play on previous maps in a multiplayer mode and I can definitely see capture the point or payload push in Snow day and if they have to incorporate the card mechanics have the players need to play the story mode to unlock various cards or use their TP or whatever currency they have spare to buy new ones they can both use in the story mode and in multiplayer like in garden warfare where you can unlock different variants of plants abilities or whatever and after such n such amount of time or at the beginning of combat or after some form of checkpoint (like maybe after a point is taken for example) the teams vote to add certain cards in replacement of previous ones you can vote to keep some cards in play or switch them out for others depending on how the game is going and bith teams can do this giving dynamic battles as the game progresses. there's alot of ways snow day could've done better but instead they just proceeded to have it fall somewhat flat literally just make it like garden warfare and you'd be good it's a replayable game with cards various players can randomly have to change up the battle for a time there's so much squandered potential

I think what this game does really well, is showing how South Park really doesn’t look good in 3D. It’s kinda weird to say that the N64 looks pretty similar

It literally feels like the game trey said he was always afraid the 1st two games would be.

[@Pepe_Le_Pew-qv4pn]

Well,that's why I think South Park should continue in the branch/road of the "MOTHER-style RPGS"because that, for me is the style of game that South Park works in the best possible way from the beginning. Oh and if you ask me what kind of theme the new possible South Park RPG should use,i think the best ones could be theme of Good Times With Weapons or Lil'Crime Stoppers.I think it would come out really cool for sure.❤

[@sarafontanini7051]

the rpgs also allow for fun battles and vaiety of enemies, and excuses to make unique scripted events like when you battle gnomes while your parents are fucking

[@boygame1955]

I wish they made a game based of the episode "Fun times with weapons" Cool weapons to fight foes with, seeing the all characters get cool ninja design's & add some metal gear stealth sections.

Wild that they decided to go with a Covid allegory for a game released in 2024 especially considering how well they already did it when it was relevant.

[@gabrielwassup4906]

They became lazy sellouts

[@sonicfanboy3375]

Maybe this game was in development hell for a while

[@punkysnarks]

They could've done a 2022 Northeast Blizzard story. That's where I assumed it was going with the "huge blizzard" angle. Have it be like Fallout in the snow.

[@AyoMonkee720]

A South Park game inspired by the paper Mario and Mario & Luigi series could work in my opinion

[@SorcererLance]

I grew up in middle school when South Park was brand-new and they were banking off its sudden explosive popularity with merch like T-shirts and of course videogames... The N64 FPS game was... ok, but largely forgettable as it was clear they never playtested it since like the final boss was just about impossible to beat without invincibility. Once the Stick of Truth was out decades later, it felt like they finally got it right making a South Park game that actually FELT like you were playing the show. This... It feels like they were so focused on making a trilogy and with the first 2 games being in 2D, they did the common and obvious thing from the 90's with "instead of a South Park 3, let's make it a South Park 3D!" like they did with other franchises like Earthworm Jim... with... seemingly similar results. A shame.

[@Mime061]

20:34 Did bro have his headphones on backwards? It sounds correct to me

[@Bamblue_Forever]

Hey Mark... you can click the left stick to sprint as well lol. Fixes the whole "pressing b or O" thing

[@BrimBlam]

I remember me and a coworker looking at this and I immediately was hesitant on this game, while they kept telling me that "This game is gonna be the shit." I mean, both in the narrative and reviews, I guess he was right.

[@personsomeone2760]

Still don’t understand why they did a hack n slash rather than 3rd person fps snowball fight.

[@Sephus912]

There already exists a third South Park RPG. It’s a mobile game called South Park: Phone Destroyer. Play that instead of this, it’s completely free.

[@GreyPikmin334]

Next SP game should totally revist the 'Good Times with Weapons' aesthetic as an action RPG or something. It'd be different than the superhero and fantasy stuff they've already done, plus it's a fan-favorite episode. It'd be cool to see the entire town reimagined in that anime style as well.

[@transcreatureofchaos]

It's so weird how we went from the kinda bloated but still pretty good FBW to a game that's the complete opposite of bloated and the opposite of good

[@PastaBeato]

I will always think about that one youtube comment that suggested that the next south park game should focus on a multiverse theme. The potential it could've had with mix and matching characters and abilities.

[@ShockwaveFPSStudios]

Ubisoft should’ve let South Park Studios make Snow Day as a Western RPG. Because Stick of Truth was Fantasy, Fractured Butt Whole was Superhero, and Snow Day should’ve been a western draw.

[@SuperBatSpider]

I thought when I saw the ads “Ah, an action RPG instead of turn based” and now I don’t wanna play it

[@supersouthparkfan364]

“There are no checkpoints in this hour long stage!?” Yeah I felt that because I lost a boss fight to Stan with that damn Axe he had

[@PatrickMoore-yw6lu]

This is almost like Suicide Squad Kills the Justice League, as the game was bashed for what they did to Batman as it was meant to be Kevin Conroy's last role before his passing, before the news of his true last projects were revealed.

[@ryman1933]

the 3d is what made me not want it at all its so off putting

[@ChuckDavie-l4b]

They're trying to appeal to the Tik Tok kids who see this under Joe Rogan talk about how dangerous bears are or some shit.

[@mrpiccionedivino5598]

I don't get it, they're hoping to attract enough people who buy everything as long as it's southpark? Or is there a correlation between rougelike live-service games and tiktok kids?

[@mrpiccionedivino5598]

​@@JuanPiece. tiktok kids actually helped a lot for south park popularity in the last year

[@WAYBIG_2]

I just pressed in the left stick to run instead of holding ⭕️

[@Camad]

I really don’t know how you didn’t pick up on this, but THQNordic is the publisher, not the developer. That would be a studio called “Question”.

[@WHIKKEDDDD]

the fact that the season pass is listing cosmetics, new weapons and a game mode… I wonder if we will get actually story updates but I heavily doubt it

[@Zappic3]

20:40 the voices came from the correct directions for me... Are my headphones broken, or is Mark trolling?

[@cosmicspacething3474]

It would’ve made sense for this one to go for a war theme, snow trenches sound cool and would make sense

[@ReaverSenpai]

Its bad because Obsidian didn't make it.

[@ellagage1256]

Obsidian didn't make Fractured but Whole and that game is better than Stick of Truth

[@drinkingcowboy4806]

@@ellagage1256we can agree both games are good but if either of them made this game it would be a lot better

[@Natalie_Toshino]

What's really telling is that I love South Park, and I make an attempt to stay apprised of news, on the franchise, and I had no idea that this had even released, and that was two months ago.

[@Asnort]

Never liked South Park, the Thanksgiving episode where turkeys eat Kenny's eyes scared the shit out of me when I was little

I mean the reason why there’s no checkpoints is because it’s a random dungeon crawler... it’s just how those work. No checkpoints in binding of issac or hades

[@MrTragedious986]

I don’t think this game is worth a platinum despite from I heard is an easy platinum.

i really wanted an airsoft theme, would've fit perfectly with the teenager episode (one of my recent favourites), and the 3d open zone gameplay

Nichole being a side quest is very random, they never did much with her in the show, so I find it weird that she is a face for a side quest but idk

because 2D wouldn't of worked for the game they wanted to make lol

[@stinkfinga4918]

​@CartoDarko then they should have made a different game.

It was marketed as a rougelike so no checkpoints makes sense but otherwise wtf is this game it looks so bad both visually and gameplay wise
