Surprised there isn't a thread for this since it's going to be the greatest game ever made.

Games based on animated tv shows have a tendency to turn out shit(the only decent one I can think of is Simpsons: Hit & Run). But this is Obsidian, and Parker and Stone seems to be closely involved with the project so maybe, just maybe it might be ok. Then again the latest season of South Park was pretty bad. :erg: Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. :erg:

Simpsons Hit & Run was fantastic. I wish I knew what happened to my copy of that.

If this game sucks it will be the first Obsidian game that wasn't excellent. Plus, as you mentioned, Parker and Stone are directly involved so the writing/humor should be top notch.

From OP:

Quote:

The writing will in part focus on making fun of other RPGs and how "big and bombastic" they can sometimes get. It begins when you (the new kid) join a town-wide live action role-playing game (LARP) that gets out of hand (surprise) and becomes a real adventure.

That... actually has a good potential to be pretty good. Consider me intrigued.

It also reminds me of the (http://store.steampowered.com/app/46570/?snr=1_4_4__13) Grotesque Tacitcs: Dungeon and Donuts games that were on sale on Steam which also boast being RPG parodies - anyone tried those?

Oh god dammit the quality of the show will go down again.

And we already have Magicka. Who cares.

Not quite sure about Feargus sat in an empty room with people walking through the background, though. :confused:

(http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2011/12/12/good-times-with-weapons-the-combat-of-south-park-the-game.aspx) The five character classes have now been confirmed as:

* Fighter
* Mage
* Thief
* Cleric
* Jew

Part of your fighting moves include kicking people in the nuts.

Nice.

Wait. We're all obviously going to have to pick the Jew, aren't we? What's the special ability, kibitzing people to death?
