"Myyy goodness my glasshouse is sparkling delightfully in the morning sun. What a nice day to indulge my favourite hobby of projectile mineralogy!" 😂😂😂
Well, obviously I disagree but that's fine. I actually appreciate your way of voicing your opinion, which is something I can't say about Ev1lL33tC4m31C4s3Sp34k there. Personally, I think there are such rhetoric gems hidden in Yahtzee's rapid-fire presentation that it's totally worth reminiscing about them a bit in the comments. Again, if you disagree, I can totally see where you're coming from. Even more constructive would've been if you highlighted which kind of comment or even which specific comment or comments you enjoy more than posts such as mine. This actually interests me. Which hidden gem did I bury by just repeating a great line from the video?
abdirahman said Throwing stones in glass houses: Basically a saying for people who make hypocritical jokes/insults, since Yathzee also uses toilet humor.
IMO they approached this like "let's make 'Stick of Truth," but a real game, not some cute half-assed thing--why couldn't this be a real RPG?" And they pretty much did it? Maybe it fails a little in game systems just being there to reproduce the same gameplay, as opposed to making you feel more powerful...maybe why Yahtz is a little down on it, him being sick of those game systems. But for me, I just can't get into most modern games, so when one actually works for me, I tend to enjoy those game systems as they were intended. (Like Ubisoft stuff in "Spiderman"--I am actually enjoying swinging around, so hit me with the map markers.)
Joel Schembri I'm not a fan. Haven't been for years. All I said was a quote from the last game and those who keep up to the show will understand it better and probably get more of a kick out of it. At least compared to someone who hasn't seen the show
Joel Schembri Don't compare South Park to the Simpsons and Family Guy. South Park may have gone a little down hill but at least it's still a show worth watching.
Joel Schembri did you watch the video? Yahtzee straight up said the show is still pretty good. So yeah not crazy to think people enjoy it just because some guy named Joel doesn't.
Joel Schembri do you have time to keep up with every show? I haven't kept up with game of thrones so does that mean it's a grade d drama? Also, it's grade d, in your opinion. Apparently you don't understand what an opinion is and that different people like different things.
Then put your breasts in a vice and tighten the vice equal times to the number on the patch. Equip the patch that made your breasts hurt most. Edit: Inb4 "b-but I enjoy that". *sigh*
I mean, presumably the area that they would be, in place of them, would still work? Like, it wouldn't hurt in the same way, I think (I of course have no first person experience of the situation being considered, but based on what I've heard..), but the general method should still work?
I noticed this episode was pretty high-quality graphic-wise. Like that bit with the Simpsons logo being dragged in circles by that car, with the bloody donut. Like holy hell, wouldn't have seen that a couple years back. Whole episode has stuff like that, it's cool to see Yahtzee's development over time, not only as a critic but as a visual content creator as well.
If you purchased the upgrades from the Ubisoft club with the points you get from playing the other games, it allows you to completely ignore the equipment part of this game. The three you get are the best and you just keep leveling them up.
Admittedly I somewhat resent this particular feature because I definitely feel like I was missing some aspect of the game when I played it, though the game itself was fun enough regardless (And turning the difficulty to Hard helped balance that out a bit.
The Jared from Subway boss stands out from that game. And the whole situation with your parents dying and each of them begging you to kill the other one. There's also a secret Morgan Freeman boss that's fun and challenging. But now that you mention it, SoT was more outrageous and memorable. I wasn't disappointed in this one, though.
I did it, after months of watching, I've finally finished the playlist and have seen every episode of zero punctuation on RUclips. ... Well time to restart the playlist.
What's worse is that sort of thing makes you think you're at the end. Your progress is capped out but you've got a quarter to a third of the game left.
4:05 can I applaud the animator for *almost* predicting the netherborn dlc move list getting a scythe attack hitting 4 spaces, with the middle row getting a slightly longer attack range?
I've just finished playing them both, one after the other. I have to say, FBH is a clear improvement, mechanically at least. It fixes a lot of annoyances I had in SoT. You don't have to hold a button to run; loot is picked up automatically from chests and battles; areas with missable collectables aren't locked off permanently after its quest is done; you can change your class midgame if you're unhappy with it; I found the gear change saved me a lot of time fiddling in the menus and altogether found the game to be a lot more streamlined. Whether or not the story is any funnier or enjoyable, I'm still not sure. Neither plot was very compelling or interesting. And I think it was a mistake to give you access to so many classes in the mid to late game, since you could just pick and choose the skills you like from any class, so why did you ever have to choose one or two? And the ending definitely did just go on... And on, way past it should've. Can't speak for the DLC, because it costs more than the base game now, but often it means the base game has suffered in some way for the sake of additional monetisation. TL;DR they're both good games, and FBH felt like a worthy sequel to me, but the story and combat systems seem to be a matter of personal taste. Hope to see another one in a couple of years time.
Weirdly I trust ZP more than most reviews. I don't need to hear about the praise for a game's cutting edge graphics or real time asshair rendering or whatever sony and michaelsoft are investing their cash in today but I do need to know what shitty parts are gonna end up being dealbreakers
Yeah, that pretty much sums it up. One little thing tho, if you play on the hardest difficulty settings, it does tend to pay off to actually read what each patch does, and focus on buffing up the right "stats" (for example, I found myself using a lot of characters that inflict damage by knocking the enemies around the battlefield, and I have a couple patches that are like 10 points lower than others, but they also boost knockback damage by a hefty percent.) All that said, my main point is that I wanna see an episode where you swap out that upbeat rock music with someone doing a Korn style scat imitation of said music. That would be really nifty.
... I don't know if this was done on purpose, but I just realized. 4:05 has a guy pull out a Scythe and gain hit 4 squares in front of him in a tetris T shape. In the DLC for FbW, you gain the Netherborn class, which has 1 ability involving you pulling out a scythe and hitting everything in the exact same shape. Either brilliant, or an amazing coincidence.
To anyone who decided not to watch this video on The Escapist website, the end credits with some Yahtzee dialogue says that he looked up "tight pants" on Google Images.
If we were to take every joke Yahtzee makes about his horrible fetishes at face value, he would be the world's greatest and most terrifying nymphomaniac.
lol at the 'Mrs. Braithwaite' or whatever name it was bathroom window line. That was the most random thing to add on to the end of the things vying for your eye's attention XD.
What has been pulling me back into Fractured But Whole is really just the premise: create your own superhero. With the booming popularity of superhero films, I’m dumbfounded that more developers haven’t thought to put out a game where you build your own superhero. Go back ten years, and there was City of Heroes/Villains and Freedom Force at least. We have DCU now, which is awesome for DC fans (I’d presume), but little of anything else in the way of customization. In spite of the saturation of superhero films and associated games to go along, role-playing as your very own superhero seems to be an inexplicably untapped market for video game developers.
dear yahtzee: please review getting over it. i enjoy your review videos very much, and i'd like to see you review that game. every review of it i've seen so far has either been mindless anger-fueled drivel or sucking up to the dev for making a "deep" game. due to the fact that you are a skilled gamer who enjoys difficult games, but also one who (like me) is incredibly infuriated by people being pretentious, i think you should review/play it to give a fair explanation of the game. thank you for your time. and honestly, you don't have to.
I honestly don't know how anyone can find The Stick of Truth to be better, I feel like the Fractured But Whole is an upgrade in nearly every way, but to each their own...
Stick of Truth is based on the show's LOTR episodes and the PS4/Xbox One war episodes too. I don't think it entirely relies on you seeing the show before, as it literally picks up where SOT left off. It's supposed to be the very next day.
The ending of this game left me wanting more after the high of stick of truths ending, like how you were slowing building our characters religion , sex, gender, race was all building up to a great punchline at the end and it sort of didn't. Like if you picked your religion as christian then Jesus helps you in the final boss or depending on your gender you may or may not unlocked the most powerful fart power of them all, Queefing. (That would of been a nice reference to that episode)
Luke Embling hahaha, I laughed my ass off by redeeming my choice of religion with semen and how much I fucked up in it till the game just gave up and gave me so much lives it was impossible not to beat it
The ending of this game felt like the ending of an episode of the show, and that's fine by me. In fact, it's pretty damn reminiscent of the ending to the Superhero episodes themselves, where Mint-Berry Crunch saves the day and it's super anti-climactic and abrupt. It wasn't some super-boss to kill or some crazy twist, it just ended as stupidly as it should have, which just added to the humor imo.
what I remember about Fractured But Whole, with spoilers: *picking my gender, complete with shitty, hilarious song * havign to do it AGAIN but be more specific *Human Kite 2 From Anther Universe. everything about him *Seaman and Gay Fish *performing a lapdance *Shub Niggurath *Doctor Timothy Boss Battle Battle *Professor Chaos' boss battle *Butters' dad boss battle *SUMMONS *CRRAAAAAAB PEOPLE, CRAAAAAAB PEOPLE *BEATING UP THOSE AWFUL COPS *The return od Dr Mephesto *KILLING YOUR PARENTS D: *TIIIIIME TRAVEL *Christmas Critters boss battle *BATTLE AGAINST YOUR PAST SELF
Fighting Jared in the police station. PC Principal beating a Hispanic man because he wasn't offended. Captain Diabetes actually dying and being saved through time-travel The old folks home musical and escape sequence
I'm surprised Yahtzee liked Stick of Truth more. I thought Stick of Truth was a so-so game, but I loved Fractured But Whole; I thought it was a much more nuanced game, and I had a lot of fun with the character customization and battle system.
Doki Doki Literature Club Review? It's nothing what you'd expect, and I want to see another horror game review. Over the holidays already, and waiting for next halloween
To be fair, there is more of an eerie feeling to DDLC than just the random jumpscares. That said, it really wasnt that scary, I found it more of a heartwarming or tearjerking experience. That may or may not have been because some of the things I had seen in life just as well, and we all know how memories can paint a picture over any canvas.
He could probably give it the undertale treatment but to a lesser extent. The more he talks about DDLC, the less effective it'll work with the surprises.
I basically did the same thing where I started playing the game, confused (what the fudge is sodosopa?!) because I haven't watched any since the Stick of Truth times, watched more episodes and then went "Oh! I get it Now!" So yeah, Yahtzee, you were dead on about that cross promotion thing. XD
First one I actually had to slow down via RUclips settings. Not even my pet squirrel could manage the speed and I keep it constantly high on coffee and crack...
Funny thing about the title: it was changed because the censors wouldn't allow the game to be released under its original title, "The Fractured Butthole"
If you like the South Park show, TFBW is an awesome game. Game play wise it's better than SOT's as the hardest difficulties (Mastermind, and the DLC: Diabolical difficulty modes) make the enemy AI a bit smarter well jacking up their defense/health, were as for SOT you just choose Thief and have Kyle spam arrows until the enemy is dead. In TFBW you have to strategize not only what buddies you have on field to help you, but also how they complement each other and your own move sets, how everyone is positioned on field to get the max out of your healers or entrapping enemies to kill them quicker/reduce the damage your team takes. You also in the higher difficulty have to really look at what moves your character class is using, match them with the best equipment that benefits the type of moves your using and the DNA boost you need. Even after every move is unlocked, you still need to be careful about how/when you use your powers as you are only limited to 4 all with different stats for damage, status effects, and other factors that could win or lose the battle. I liked that in TFBW you can wear whatever the hell you want and dye it whatever the hell you want (for most of the outfits, there is like 2 you can's edit the colours.). So I can run around with a purple bra on my head and wear a yellow mini skirt the whole game and not have to worry about their stats buffing my character to their max potential, I can just be happy with the outfit I choose to wear and not change it constantly (though I do change it constantly, I love dress up games and TFBW is a very great dress up game as well.). That said, I do wish the customization for your character that wasn't based on clothing, gave you unique benefits. Of course there is also a sh*t ton of "things" your character can be, so it would be hard not to just generalize some of the "perks" an option would give you. Like lets say being a "girl" you got a random chance of a "Charmed" or "Enraged" effect on a single enemy either at the start of a battle or from repeated physical contact. It could be possible this effect is also granted to Demi-girls, Non-binary Femme Boy/Girl/Person, or any of the other "female/effeminate" gender classes you get to choose. Of this could just be a random effect that happeneds with all the gender choices, (except with enemies that have a clear gender/species preference) random pawns would get a small amount of pseudo-characterization, instead of just being bunching bags. I also kind of wished there were slightly more options for the race/ethnicity PC principle gives you. South Park is a place where Gods, Aliens, Monsters, and even f*cking breakfast cereal are considered and treated like normal everyday people. It wouldn't be too outlandish for a species option was also given to your character (as long as it was humanoid, can't get too crazy here). Like Kyle's character sheet lists him as an Alien, Clyde's an Insect-Human hybrid, and Kenny's says he's Netherborn, even if these are made up identities, they put them on their character sheets and that is what you are supposed to be doing, it obviously didn't have to be a real recognized race. The religious options were fine, I mean they got most of the main religions out there and character that didn't have a "typical" religious belief, was Kyle who claimed to worship Kites (as part of his character persona) and Butters/Chaos Kids that idolize Entropy. Finally the only other problems I had with TFBW, was the story not being as zany as SOT's was, and the fact I like the fantasy/medieval theme more that superheros personally. I've always been more of a sci-fi/fantasy kind of person. The superheros theme was kind of wearing on me entertainment wise after 15 hours, where as the fantasy stuff kept me engaged till the end. TL:DR: It's a great game for South Park fans and those who like superheros. Though it feels like the studio could have spent a bit more time on development of the story and mechanics of the game to make it feel even more like your apart of South Park's Universe. If you like to dress up, you'll spend hours on this game just playing with the customization. If you like strategy I cannot recommend purchasing the "Danger Deck" DLC and playing on Diabolical, enough. The add on is worth it's $8 CND price (plus you get even more outfits!). This game gets a 8/10 from me and I look forward to the DLCs that are comming up!
You have reviewd and tore apart some of my favorite games such as persona 5 when I first got it but the this is you were so right that I couldn't be mad but in fact sub from that one you are funny as hell
I have not played the first yet but I was ULTRA SHOCKED when I realize KENNY WAS TALKING THROUGH THE WHOLE GAME! I don’t have Cable so I am way behind in South Park lore XD
That Simpson’s analogy was so good and so true
It works even better if you replace The Simpsons with "Anything that Seth MacFarlane made"
Nah simpsons has overstayed it's welcome longer than sethy boy
It feels more appropriate for Family Guy. The Simpsons is really just stale.
Somehow, Family Guy has been around much less than The Simpsons and has already aged worse.
kemix1006 the only show Seth killed was Cleveland show, if only he’d do the same to family guy

Evi1M4chine
Jesus, don't be such an ass
Penny Lane I had to actually read it to get it , nice one
Evi1M4chine I'm with you. Sick of all the comments being quotes from the video
Well, obviously I disagree but that's fine. I actually appreciate your way of voicing your opinion, which is something I can't say about Ev1lL33tC4m31C4s3Sp34k there. Personally, I think there are such rhetoric gems hidden in Yahtzee's rapid-fire presentation that it's totally worth reminiscing about them a bit in the comments. Again, if you disagree, I can totally see where you're coming from.
Even more constructive would've been if you highlighted which kind of comment or even which specific comment or comments you enjoy more than posts such as mine. This actually interests me. Which hidden gem did I bury by just repeating a great line from the video?
The Anti Cancer
but we love to see them now don't we?
That glass house aside was possibly the best laugh I've had all week.
Damn, I really wish he had covered "What Remains of Edith Finch" since it seams right up his alley of blending gameplay with the story.
Loved the glassed house joke. Legitimately made me lol
projectile mineralogy is the best past time
Not a minute in and I was already dying
My favorite joke.
Aston Wilson someone explain the joke please?
abdirahman said Throwing stones in glass houses: Basically a saying for people who make hypocritical jokes/insults, since Yathzee also uses toilet humor.
I appreciate that they actually made a decent combat system. Probably the only reason it has replay ability
I have never replayed the first game. I have replayed the second game multiple times. Agreed, it has replayability because the combat is not shit.
IMO they approached this like "let's make 'Stick of Truth," but a real game, not some cute half-assed thing--why couldn't this be a real RPG?" And they pretty much did it? Maybe it fails a little in game systems just being there to reproduce the same gameplay, as opposed to making you feel more powerful...maybe why Yahtz is a little down on it, him being sick of those game systems. But for me, I just can't get into most modern games, so when one actually works for me, I tend to enjoy those game systems as they were intended. (Like Ubisoft stuff in "Spiderman"--I am actually enjoying swinging around, so hit me with the map markers.)

fucking brilliant
Nick Boss glad I wasn't the only one
He should really start putting a trigger warning up whenever he makes a fart noise. (I'M JOKING I'M JOKING PLEASE DON'T CRUCIFY ME)
"projectile mineralogy"
*meteorology
Kareem Alsaady No, it's "projectile mineralogy." As in, throwing rocks. From a glass house. If it were "meteorology," the joke would be ruined.
That is one of the best metaphors for the Simpsons I've ever heard in my life
Years from now, Zero Punctuation episodes will be seen as poetry
they really are poetry
Sarcasm quotes! HE USED PUNCTUATION!!!!! Black hole opens up, and from that hole erupts a giant FART!
"Fans of the show will like it" part 2
Joel Schembri It's still immensely popular.
Joel Schembri I'm not a fan. Haven't been for years. All I said was a quote from the last game and those who keep up to the show will understand it better and probably get more of a kick out of it. At least compared to someone who hasn't seen the show
Joel Schembri Don't compare South Park to the Simpsons and Family Guy. South Park may have gone a little down hill but at least it's still a show worth watching.
Joel Schembri did you watch the video? Yahtzee straight up said the show is still pretty good. So yeah not crazy to think people enjoy it just because some guy named Joel doesn't.
Joel Schembri do you have time to keep up with every show? I haven't kept up with game of thrones so does that mean it's a grade d drama? Also, it's grade d, in your opinion. Apparently you don't understand what an opinion is and that different people like different things.
"And then equip the patch that made your balls hurt the most"
No balls found, the tutorial is not working.
Huh?! But only guys watch Zero Punctuation and game reviews!! Didn't you see the "boys only" sign on the way in?!
Solis Must be a eunuch. Everybody knows that there aren't any women on the Internet outside of tumblr and pinterest.
Then put your breasts in a vice and tighten the vice equal times to the number on the patch.
Equip the patch that made your breasts hurt most.
Edit: Inb4 "b-but I enjoy that". *sigh*
I mean, presumably the area that they would be, in place of them, would still work? Like, it wouldn't hurt in the same way, I think (I of course have no first person experience of the situation being considered, but based on what I've heard..), but the general method should still work?
lol
Projectile minerology killed me XD
Was about to dislike,
Then you showed the ladies bum,
Really great twist, Ties the video nicely together,
Thumbs up!
The version on the escapist website has even more of them in the credits!
Sgt Ducky Bums up!
You could say it was a *SMASHING* save.
I was just watching your videos a few minutes ago, good stuff
Quack!
I noticed this episode was pretty high-quality graphic-wise. Like that bit with the Simpsons logo being dragged in circles by that car, with the bloody donut. Like holy hell, wouldn't have seen that a couple years back.
Whole episode has stuff like that, it's cool to see Yahtzee's development over time, not only as a critic but as a visual content creator as well.
"Patches? We don't need no stinking patches!"
But who will kick you off ledges after promising treasures if not Patches?!
Damn, I was going to make that joke. Well I guess I have to console myself with "I understood that reference"
Fierce Mushroom "Dont worry friend. Im trusty Patches" *Laughs evily*
Me: ..................
I guess we have Pate... He's kinda like patches...
Worked in ahattytime
If you purchased the upgrades from the Ubisoft club with the points you get from playing the other games, it allows you to completely ignore the equipment part of this game. The three you get are the best and you just keep leveling them up.
John Long honestly that's the same thing I did. The only thing I have to change out now are my majors and epics.
Admittedly I somewhat resent this particular feature because I definitely feel like I was missing some aspect of the game when I played it, though the game itself was fun enough regardless (And turning the difficulty to Hard helped balance that out a bit.
I just want to say, you are literally the only youtuber I can't watch at double speed, 1.25 speed already become too much.
The Jared from Subway boss stands out from that game. And the whole situation with your parents dying and each of them begging you to kill the other one. There's also a secret Morgan Freeman boss that's fun and challenging. But now that you mention it, SoT was more outrageous and memorable. I wasn't disappointed in this one, though.
Now THAT, is the finest description of The Simpsons I have EVER heard!
I did it, after months of watching, I've finally finished the playlist and have seen every episode of zero punctuation on RUclips.
...
Well time to restart the playlist.
The biggest issue is the fact you get ALL the classes about 3/4 in, so all replay value is lost, very much a one shot winder
What's worse is that sort of thing makes you think you're at the end. Your progress is capped out but you've got a quarter to a third of the game left.
"...close sarcasm quotes" - LIKE
3:50 is one of the best jokes I’ve ever seen
0:48 "PROJECTILE MINERALOGY" XD
4:05 can I applaud the animator for *almost* predicting the netherborn dlc move list getting a scythe attack hitting 4 spaces, with the middle row getting a slightly longer attack range?
The Ntetherborn DLC was so much fun, honestly more fun that a lot of the main game.
Stick of Truth was also a direct continuation of a few episodes of the show mainly Black Friday trilogy.
I've just finished playing them both, one after the other. I have to say, FBH is a clear improvement, mechanically at least. It fixes a lot of annoyances I had in SoT. You don't have to hold a button to run; loot is picked up automatically from chests and battles; areas with missable collectables aren't locked off permanently after its quest is done; you can change your class midgame if you're unhappy with it; I found the gear change saved me a lot of time fiddling in the menus and altogether found the game to be a lot more streamlined.

TL;DR they're both good games, and FBH felt like a worthy sequel to me, but the story and combat systems seem to be a matter of personal taste. Hope to see another one in a couple of years time.
I want Yahtzee to do an April Fool's prank where he reviews the Zelda CDI games as the greatest games that have ever been made.
The Simpsons analogy was spot on.
Stick Of Truth was also a continuation of a couple of episodes that were a game of thrones parody or something you just didn’t NEED to see it
Sounds like they got high off their own ‘member berries
Just got one name for you, Spontanous Bootay. That was definitely one of the top moments for me in the game.
When I'm tempted to buy a game, but I know I shouldnt, I watch Zero Punctuation....
zainul xavier Yatzee is a cynic though. Take his word for it and you won't buy any game xD
ShadovvWolfie exaclty. Thats why i only watch the games im not sure i should buy...
what do you do for the hundreds of games he doesn't have time to make videos for?
I like to come back to the videos after I play the game... so I can go "Ahhh, yeah, I remember that!" and stuff.^^
Weirdly I trust ZP more than most reviews. I don't need to hear about the praise for a game's cutting edge graphics or real time asshair rendering or whatever sony and michaelsoft are investing their cash in today but I do need to know what shitty parts are gonna end up being dealbreakers
Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.
One little thing tho, if you play on the hardest difficulty settings, it does tend to pay off to actually read what each patch does, and focus on buffing up the right "stats" (for example, I found myself using a lot of characters that inflict damage by knocking the enemies around the battlefield, and I have a couple patches that are like 10 points lower than others, but they also boost knockback damage by a hefty percent.)
All that said, my main point is that I wanna see an episode where you swap out that upbeat rock music with someone doing a Korn style scat imitation of said music. That would be really nifty.
Ahhhhhh yatzee I've watched your vids since my high school days back in 2004 stay frosty and since G4 is gone I'm glad we still have you 😊
... I don't know if this was done on purpose, but I just realized. 4:05 has a guy pull out a Scythe and gain hit 4 squares in front of him in a tetris T shape.
In the DLC for FbW, you gain the Netherborn class, which has 1 ability involving you pulling out a scythe and hitting everything in the exact same shape. Either brilliant, or an amazing coincidence.
The Fractured But Whole ends just like an episode of the show... as if nothing happened at all. lol
To anyone who decided not to watch this video on The Escapist website, the end credits with some Yahtzee dialogue says that he looked up "tight pants" on Google Images.
Unbelievable improvement to Stick of Truth.
The game seems to be a good comparison to the show: still good, but just more of the same. Also that Simpsons joke was perfect.
If we were to take every joke Yahtzee makes about his horrible fetishes at face value, he would be the world's greatest and most terrifying nymphomaniac.
This game can be summed up by "Oh Member... *_[insert South Park episode here]_* "
I member that
I want to see a review on "Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy" I feel like that would be fun one to watch.
lol at the 'Mrs. Braithwaite' or whatever name it was bathroom window line. That was the most random thing to add on to the end of the things vying for your eye's attention XD.
One of the best analogies about the gradual death of the Simpsons I've heard of in awhile.
It's amazing how this summarized up everything I had heard from people who played it, and which made me skip it after stick of truth
What has been pulling me back into Fractured But Whole is really just the premise: create your own superhero. With the booming popularity of superhero films, I’m dumbfounded that more developers haven’t thought to put out a game where you build your own superhero. Go back ten years, and there was City of Heroes/Villains and Freedom Force at least. We have DCU now, which is awesome for DC fans (I’d presume), but little of anything else in the way of customization. In spite of the saturation of superhero films and associated games to go along, role-playing as your very own superhero seems to be an inexplicably untapped market for video game developers.
This is the first video I've watched from this series....Can say I'm pleased.
Phone Destroya
i was promised pictureS, plural
dear yahtzee: please review getting over it. i enjoy your review videos very much, and i'd like to see you review that game. every review of it i've seen so far has either been mindless anger-fueled drivel or sucking up to the dev for making a "deep" game. due to the fact that you are a skilled gamer who enjoys difficult games, but also one who (like me) is incredibly infuriated by people being pretentious, i think you should review/play it to give a fair explanation of the game.
thank you for your time. and honestly, you don't have to.
"Projectile Mineralogy" LOL
01:46 thank you for finally saying that
I honestly don't know how anyone can find The Stick of Truth to be better, I feel like the Fractured But Whole is an upgrade in nearly every way, but to each their own...
3:48 instructions nuclear i accidentally hiroshima
i didn't think he'd actually review this O.O
If Yahtzee comes out mostly liking a game, he tends to make it a point to check up on it's sequels and let us know if it held up.
Axelord1942 why
ReZisT Lust guess i should have added /s
My one critique is that stick of truth was also a continuation of a couple episodes centered around lord of the rings
I came back to see if this channel is still playing bagpipes.
This is by far one of the funniest episodes I've seen
I thought this would never come out.
The title is reminiscent of world Peace
in what way?
The fuck are you blathering on about?
In a cold war kind of way. Where threats are being thrown around, but nobody can be arsed to press the nuclear button. For better or for worse.
Stick of Truth is based on the show's LOTR episodes and the PS4/Xbox One war episodes too. I don't think it entirely relies on you seeing the show before, as it literally picks up where SOT left off. It's supposed to be the very next day.
Sessions 8 to 12 of Southpark are golden.

Referenced there

But but "what remains of Edith finch"
Not much, but I can assure you she was delicious.
Heh butt butt
"Arty walking simulator game"
That is all
Ah yes, back when South Park was on Hulu
glad I'm not the only one who thought about it like that
I love this man
If Yahtzee really wanted to review an overlooked gem of this year he should be reviewing Tales of Berseria.
The secret boss is a much better final boss than the actual final boss.
I finally grudgingly bought a new system now I have to watch all of these again to see what's good
The ending of this game left me wanting more after the high of stick of truths ending, like how you were slowing building our characters religion , sex, gender, race was all building up to a great punchline at the end and it sort of didn't.
Like if you picked your religion as christian then Jesus helps you in the final boss or depending on your gender you may or may not unlocked the most powerful fart power of them all, Queefing. (That would of been a nice reference to that episode)
Luke Embling hahaha, I laughed my ass off by redeeming my choice of religion with semen and how much I fucked up in it till the game just gave up and gave me so much lives it was impossible not to beat it
The ending pissed me off a bit.
The ending of this game felt like the ending of an episode of the show, and that's fine by me. In fact, it's pretty damn reminiscent of the ending to the Superhero episodes themselves, where Mint-Berry Crunch saves the day and it's super anti-climactic and abrupt. It wasn't some super-boss to kill or some crazy twist, it just ended as stupidly as it should have, which just added to the humor imo.
It leaves room for the DLCs.

The sarcasm quotes were a request from the Escapist's legal team.
I'm surprised Yahtzee liked Stick of Truth more. I thought Stick of Truth was a so-so game, but I loved Fractured But Whole; I thought it was a much more nuanced game, and I had a lot of fun with the character customization and battle system.
Thank you for those pictures I shall spread them on social media.
genuinely just finished playing this
Doki Doki Literature Club Review? It's nothing what you'd expect, and I want to see another horror game review. Over the holidays already, and waiting for next halloween
DDLC is just the new FNAF, there's no substance to it, just cheap jumpscares and oh so "scary" screen fuck-ups.
To be fair, there is more of an eerie feeling to DDLC than just the random jumpscares. That said, it really wasnt that scary, I found it more of a heartwarming or tearjerking experience. That may or may not have been because some of the things I had seen in life just as well, and we all know how memories can paint a picture over any canvas.
He could probably give it the undertale treatment but to a lesser extent. The more he talks about DDLC, the less effective it'll work with the surprises.
I basically did the same thing where I started playing the game, confused (what the fudge is sodosopa?!) because I haven't watched any since the Stick of Truth times, watched more episodes and then went "Oh! I get it Now!" So yeah, Yahtzee, you were dead on about that cross promotion thing. XD
You get me you kill me!
One of my fav games of 2017
Wow truer words have never been spoken in regards to The Simpsons. To recall a Netscape era même, that show has long long ago Jumped the Shark 🦈
I can see why so many people missed the end cards when yahtzee said "here's some pictures of some ladys' bottoms"
First one I actually had to slow down via RUclips settings. Not even my pet squirrel could manage the speed and I keep it constantly high on coffee and crack...
Funny thing about the title: it was changed because the censors wouldn't allow the game to be released under its original title, "The Fractured Butthole"
CHALLENGE MODE: Zero Punctuation on 2x speed. It's like listening to an annoyed squirrel and you just about manage to understand what he's saying
If you like the South Park show, TFBW is an awesome game. Game play wise it's better than SOT's as the hardest difficulties (Mastermind, and the DLC: Diabolical difficulty modes) make the enemy AI a bit smarter well jacking up their defense/health, were as for SOT you just choose Thief and have Kyle spam arrows until the enemy is dead.
In TFBW you have to strategize not only what buddies you have on field to help you, but also how they complement each other and your own move sets, how everyone is positioned on field to get the max out of your healers or entrapping enemies to kill them quicker/reduce the damage your team takes. You also in the higher difficulty have to really look at what moves your character class is using, match them with the best equipment that benefits the type of moves your using and the DNA boost you need. Even after every move is unlocked, you still need to be careful about how/when you use your powers as you are only limited to 4 all with different stats for damage, status effects, and other factors that could win or lose the battle.
I liked that in TFBW you can wear whatever the hell you want and dye it whatever the hell you want (for most of the outfits, there is like 2 you can's edit the colours.). So I can run around with a purple bra on my head and wear a yellow mini skirt the whole game and not have to worry about their stats buffing my character to their max potential, I can just be happy with the outfit I choose to wear and not change it constantly (though I do change it constantly, I love dress up games and TFBW is a very great dress up game as well.).
That said, I do wish the customization for your character that wasn't based on clothing, gave you unique benefits. Of course there is also a sh*t ton of "things" your character can be, so it would be hard not to just generalize some of the "perks" an option would give you. Like lets say being a "girl" you got a random chance of a "Charmed" or "Enraged" effect on a single enemy either at the start of a battle or from repeated physical contact. It could be possible this effect is also granted to Demi-girls, Non-binary Femme Boy/Girl/Person, or any of the other "female/effeminate" gender classes you get to choose. Of this could just be a random effect that happeneds with all the gender choices, (except with enemies that have a clear gender/species preference) random pawns would get a small amount of pseudo-characterization, instead of just being bunching bags. I also kind of wished there were slightly more options for the race/ethnicity PC principle gives you. South Park is a place where Gods, Aliens, Monsters, and even f*cking breakfast cereal are considered and treated like normal everyday people. It wouldn't be too outlandish for a species option was also given to your character (as long as it was humanoid, can't get too crazy here). Like Kyle's character sheet lists him as an Alien, Clyde's an Insect-Human hybrid, and Kenny's says he's Netherborn, even if these are made up identities, they put them on their character sheets and that is what you are supposed to be doing, it obviously didn't have to be a real recognized race. The religious options were fine, I mean they got most of the main religions out there and character that didn't have a "typical" religious belief, was Kyle who claimed to worship Kites (as part of his character persona) and Butters/Chaos Kids that idolize Entropy.
Finally the only other problems I had with TFBW, was the story not being as zany as SOT's was, and the fact I like the fantasy/medieval theme more that superheros personally. I've always been more of a sci-fi/fantasy kind of person. The superheros theme was kind of wearing on me entertainment wise after 15 hours, where as the fantasy stuff kept me engaged till the end.
TL:DR:
It's a great game for South Park fans and those who like superheros. Though it feels like the studio could have spent a bit more time on development of the story and mechanics of the game to make it feel even more like your apart of South Park's Universe. If you like to dress up, you'll spend hours on this game just playing with the customization. If you like strategy I cannot recommend purchasing the "Danger Deck" DLC and playing on Diabolical, enough. The add on is worth it's $8 CND price (plus you get even more outfits!).
This game gets a 8/10 from me and I look forward to the DLCs that are comming up!
You have reviewd and tore apart some of my favorite games such as persona 5 when I first got it but the this is you were so right that I couldn't be mad but in fact sub from that one you are funny as hell
yep
Probably going to reuse the "projectile mineralogy" thing if I remember to do so.
Going on three years and _still_ no other channel or youtuber has caught on to the joke staring us in the face!!
Repeatedly, I checked the playback speed in case I had left it on double. You beet me to it, damn you!
I have not played the first yet but I was ULTRA SHOCKED when I realize KENNY WAS TALKING THROUGH THE WHOLE GAME!
I don’t have Cable so I am way behind in South Park lore
XD
Given how your parents are in SoT and the end of FbW vs. the start of FbW, does SoT take place in the altered timeline?
Yes he’s BAAAACK
Someone mind explaining the glass house/projectile mineralogy bit?
It's a play on the idiom "People in glass houses shouldn't be throwing stones.". Which basically means: don't be a hypocrite.
This Was Sparta thanks luv
Loved the Simpsons' allegory.
At least we know where Lemmiwinks is after all these years
