Despite everything that’s happened, The New Kid still doesn’t get an invite and so must find the code to a combination lock – the twist being that the lock is a phrase.
One of my favorite moments happens early on, when The Coon has gathered all the other kids in Cartman’s basement. South Park’s humor is fully intact and completely upfront. Yes, it gets weirder the longer you play. The adventure then begins with a simple fundraising plan involving a missing cat, but the plot soon meanders into a much more elaborate affair, with crime families, time travel, and Morgan Freeman. Cartman, going by ‘The Coon’, needs money to start his own superhero franchise. This change in setting belies the familiarity of the game as, despite its superhero trappings, the game is pretty much The Stick of Truth with some new add-ons.įor instance, The Fractured but Whole shares a plot that’s just as out there. You can’t import old character data (a shame) but the game does include funny moments if you decide that the previously male New Kid should now be a girl.īy swapping fantasy for the new superhero theme, we get to see parody versions of characters such as The Flash, Batman, Superman, and other notable heroes from the DC and Marvel universes. Since the events were all make-believe, The Fractured but Whole wisely wipes the slate clean while still acknowledging The Stick of Truth. Although ‘The New Kid’ (aka ‘Douchebag’) manages to save South Park, the victory is immediately rendered moot as Cartman decides to role-play as superheroes instead. Returning players will be glad to know that The Fractured but Whole continues immediately after the first game’s ending. If you’re new, go play The Stick of Truth first trust me, it’s good. Well, they could: The Fractured but Whole is awesome, even better than its predecessor at times. While The Stick of Truth was a great RPG, everyone started doubting whether Ubisoft could capture that same lightning in a bottle. After multiple delays, expectations for South Park: The Fractured but Whole started running low.
