That being said, The Fractured But Whole is still a laugh out loud game that will have you chuckle quite often during its 15-hour campaign, but nothing here feels as extreme or as out-there as what we experienced in The Stick of Truth. While this sequel to The Stick of Truth is a much better game mechanically, mostly due to its much-improved battle system, it feels far too safe in its satire and doesn't push the envelope on much of its jokes as often as it has before. I've caught the odd episode here and there and recently watched the newest episode leading up to the release of The Fractured But Whole, which had its moments but failed to be consistently funny, and that's the problem with this game as well. While I've been a fan of South Park since its initial release 20 years ago, I haven't watched much during the last few years.
