I enjoyed this MUCH more than Stick of Truth. The combat is actually engaging and the hardest difficulty, mastermind, actually made me use my fucking brain sometimes. I personally found the humor to be much stronger in this title and I liked the characters much more. Probably because they actually dared to let the one girl and the one black kid be party members this time. In general, I personally found this title to tap into the ridiculousness of South Park's world more than its edgy shock humor. My problem is that it sort of just fizzles out at the end with a super anti-climactic final boss. I also found the side content to be lacking this time, with much weaker exploration than Stick of Truth. I loved the way New Kid was characterized in this game and their parents fighting was genuinely really moving for me. Only to end up kicking me in the face when a massive choice was completely retconned and it was revealed all of their issues as parents stemmed only from hiding the truth of their childs origin story. Such a lame cop out. Nontheless, this was pretty fun. Anyway, Captain Diabetes best party member.
