As someone who LOVED the previous two South Park games. This give me no interest.

Can't really tell exactly what this game is, but it sounds like a brawler, survival game, or just multiplayer focused game.

Not saying it won't be good, I hope it is, but using Cartman in a wizards robe, made me hopeful for more South Park style RPGs. This feels like it'll be cheaper (to make). Though I'm sure it'll find some fans.

yeah i'm really not a fan of this art style. the 2.5 D style of the previous games were awesome, especially since it felt like you were in a south park episode.

gameplay wise, this is like what, a league copy? not exactly what i'm into personally

I want to believe that the general love Matt and Trey put into the first two games will still come through, but I feel what you're saying. The game being in 3D isn't a plus to me; the last two games were at times indistinguishable from the television show, so why fuck with that? My guess is to make the large-scale breaking mechanics work better, but I'm not necessarily sure I want that?

I thought both of the last two games were fantastic, so I am sure I'll be buying it simply on the goodwill the games have built up. Plus I like games in basically every genre. But still, I feel you.
