How wuld you rate it? Played the first hour trial and really enjoyed it, wondering whether it can maintain that momentum.

Really enjoyed the game it just felt a little long in parts but overall it's a big improvement on Stick of Truth.

I had heard that it's a more substantial and satisfying game, though the comedy and story is weaker than Stick of Truth, so I was mainly trying to gauge whether it was a fair trade-off. I did enjoy what the game displayed in terms of combat in the first hour, good to hear it's solidly rated. Will still wait for a sale though. :P

A full play through with all side missions too me about 30 hours.

So you should easily get value for money when it's on sale.

All the classes. Only 4 abilities, one of which has to be the special. And no ability to save and drop movesets in and out with ease. Game could have been so much better.

You can change them before combat In the powers section.

You can also change class by speaking to Cartman.

Currently the game allows you to swap abilities in and out manually. What I want is to be able to save a pre-made list of moves which I can then instantly swap in and out.

That Tweek and Craig mission. :|

Who thought that was a good inclusion? Barely even a fetch quest, and only one joke in all that dialogue. :fp:

The one with the laptop? Yeah, that was shite. Worst of all the pay-off mission unlocks later in the game :fp: Worth it for that song snippet, though.

Location spoiler: I just got to the wall :lol:

Finished it last night. The writing is top notch and worth playing for that alone and so I really hope SoT is released for sale on its own, on current gen consoles.

With regards to the physical release, is it just the deluxe edition that contains the code for Stick Of Truth? I noticed it's £29.99 in HMV tomorrow, but seemingly that's just the regular edition.

I want Stick Of Truth (PS4) mostly, annoyingly it's not even listed on the PlayStation store individually, at least not that I can find.

I got the standard addition and it had a code on a sheet inside the box.

Pretty sure on the front it also made you aware you get the game free.

I ordered it from Argos to collect tomorrow. It mentions the free game in the description, just doesn't have the banner on the product image. If the actual game box doesn't have it I'll assume I missed out and return it. Thanks.
