Why Fractured But Whole is a PERFECT South Park Sequel

Ойын-сауық

2014’s South Park: The Stick of Truth did something incredibly impressive. Gave us a genuinely fun and exciting RPG experience that FELT like you had been dropped into an episode of South Park. And while you might have expected Matt and Trey to leave it at that, feeling good about a wildly successful adaptation of their biggest property into the video game world, they were not satisfied. Instead, they nearly immediately began work on a follow up, a game that would eventually become South Park: The Fractured But Whole. And while it took me a bit longer to come to appreciate the South Park sequel, I can now pretty confidently say that I love it just as much as the first game. And amazingly, for mostly different reasons than I love the Stick of Truth. So join me as I dive deep into the massive, ambitious and incredibly impressive sequel, South Park: The Fractured But Whole.

    I do like the idea of the New Kid working with Professor Chaos next game. My idea is that, to instigate more chaos, Professor Chaos has developed a technology to collide the multiverses, which is, in reality, him hacking the latest social media system and sending everyone different messages about what game they're playing. So now the kids have broken out into factions playing Superheroes, fantasy, ninjas, etc, all fighting each other over what they should be playing. New Kid has to use their social media powers to restore order in the multiverse. I'm not sure how feasible it is, but I would love to see a massive story with a bunch of paths and endings based on who you side with each day. So you have your starting faction, then each day the story changes based on how you did things the previous days.

    I love SoT, but after playing Fractured last year it really helps show some of the more annoying aspects of Stick. Namely the lack of replayability (imo) for such a short game. the shear lack of balance between the classes, with cases like Mage being absurdly broken for pretty much the entire game in any situation vs Rogue which is kind of ass in all but a few fights. and the kinda shallow build variety, since in terms of equips everyone's most likely just gonna end up with the same gear for a normal playthrough, and for the classes themselves it's basically "for mage, build around burn, everything else, bleed". Now granted this was kind of inevitable in a game where every class boils down to some version of "hit first, ask questions later" with a bit of variation. Which just makes the class design and gear system in Fractured feel more fun since you can actually make a build based on a role (for example in my most recent run I've been speccing full support since I'm trying to get the Token Experience achievement), and the Artifact and DNA system lets you try out far more varied stat layouts on the side of the strands, and more varied buffs on the side of the artifacts.

    The most shocking thing about the whole game was how much of a *good* game it is. Trey and Matt said in an interview they thought they were done with making videogames after SoT, until they realised that experience taught them how to actually make them. They've never shied away from their love of tabletop and video games, so it shouldn't be surprising at all that they'd do something cool. But you can really see how their skills and design matured from one instalment to the other. The combat system is *awesome*! I haven't had this much fun just playing an RPG since maybe the GBA or PS1 eras. It's unique, versatile, engaging, it encourages experimentation and can be perfectly incorporated into the storytelling itself. It's a true inovation in the turn-based RPG genre, which is something I haven't seen in a long time. The DLCs are great, and if you do them as soon asap (once you get all companions who have environment abilities), they thread the line between challenging and total nightmare. Which I really loved. Shame you didn't mention the fighting DLC, I actually really liked it. Sure, it's just a coloseum-type add-on, but it was still fun to clear all the challenges after I'd 100%'d the rest of the game. I didn't want to let go, because I'd had to much fun through the whole experience, so that really allowed for a great time before saying goodbye. Some of those fights were almost impossible, so I felt like I'd proven myself and conquered not just the game, but the gameplay as well.

    I actually managed to beat Morgan Freeman in my first playthrough without the final time fart power and any of the DLC. The strategy is to use Craig and Wendy as both have moves that aggro enemies to them while making them invincible for that turn, while having the downside of using it only every other turn. But with both Craig and Wendy you can swap between them. Since you're only fighting Freeman, you can essentially ping pong him with Craig and Wendy while having both yourself and your 3rd party member (preferably support since Freeman hits hard.)

    For a third game I'd love for the theme of the game to be ninjas as a reference to "Good Times With Weapons". But more specifically I'd love to see them take influence from Persona, and have the ninja alter-egos be summonable abilities. They could even tie this into another idea I see for the third game a lot, which is Imaginationland. Have it so that the ninja "Personas" become real due to the kids imaginations making them real. This also works since they can follow up on the final scene of Fractured But Whole since Butters is still Professor Chaos in his ninja form

    Seems like they are building up to it, the other kids act even more like assholes towards the new kid in snow days and it is getting a little grating, the thing is that snow days is a stick of truth based adventure while his villain turn around is likely to be reserved for a super hero adventure

    Combat was great in fractured... but it did only take me 1 playthrough to 100% it while SoT took me 3. The class combos were super fun for sure and the tacticle grid was great. If sot had the same, it would be unmatched between the two. Eother way, both games were great and i hope they make more. Mix best things from stick and fractured to make the uber southpark game! Edit: the kids being kids feel from stick of truth was imo the better story/feel. Just like Good times with weapons!

    I've replayed this game at least 5 times already on every difficulty! This game is so much fun and in my opinion has way more replay value than the stick of truth! Nothing against TSOT but the class system is nowhere near as advanced as the class system from fractured but whole. And I've played it on the hardest difficulty and basically had barely any issues with it, unlike TFBH where I died a lot on mastermind difficulty! Also the soundtrack is amazing on this game! I've put half of the songs on my video game music playlist they are so good! Especially the dlc songs like the vamp kids theme, or the bring the crunch battle theme! Compared to the stick of truth having a very basic soundtrack.

    All I can say, is that if South Park does do another game, I’d want the theme to be, ironically, video games. The first game was based on fantasy, which was super popular for a time, the second was based on super heroes, which are starting to wane in popularity. But as the Mario movie has shown, video game movies are the next big thing. And to have the potentially final South Park video game, be solely about parodying video games, would be so fitting.

    I know I may sound like an old grandpa or some thing, but even though the fractured, but whole is a far more smooth and detailed experience, and it’s not as sluggish in almost every regard to the stick of truth, there is something that just is so good about the stick of truth that will always make me go to it first if I had to choose between the two. Maybe it’s the fact that when it came out, it was one of the best times in my life, and the Internet was like that golden age time period, but I also do agree absolutely with the points that you made in regards to the stick of truth, I think one of the main reasons I like it is because it feels like you’re directly dropped into the show

    First off, Johnny I'd love to see a Mitch Conner Episode from you. But the rest is just my personal experience from the game. This is probably not only something that turned me into a much bigger South Park Fan, but it's also one of my favorite Games in years. I've played through the game multiple times in multiple ways to see more of the game and experience as much as I can. It helped me learn more about Gender identity than I knew when the game came out and I appreciated so many things in this game more as I've played it again after experiencing more of South Park.

During the "Pick your ethnicity" segment of the game through all the options I saw "Irish" and "Native American" were there so with the two slots I went "Oh cool, I can actually just be me." and PC Principle said to my face "No." I sat there for a good few seconds having a laugh just like "Well fuck, guess me and my dad don't exist then." and changed Native American over to Norwegian(I'm quarter Norwegian, Quarter Cherokee, and half Irish from both parents) and Irish Norwegian worked. Haven't done a second playthrough more recently but just something that always gets a chuckle out of me when I'm reminded of the game

I noticed I was actually missing 2 or 3 trophies while watching this video and went ahead and got the platinum for FBW. Apparently, I never played the DLC either, so even though there's a massive wait list for Casa Bonita - I got to go beat up vamp kids as a consolation prize lol
