From that link:

Some more, from the video:

 

[Derrick01]

Hahaha the fifth class. Yup this is going to be a South Park game alright.

 

[Nirolak]

Split bump.

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Every time I hear more it just sounds better and better.

 

[Mpl90]

Matt MacLean is the lead designer on the game and he sat down with us to talk about the tone of the overall game, the mechanics of combat, and what the South Park RPG has learned from Final Fantasy 7

I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE, GAMEINFORMER

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Fifth class... :lol

Holy CRAP!!

Can't wait.

 

[Emitan]

but what if i am a pale basement virgin?

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

lol at the Jew class. I know what I'm pickin.

 

[The Lamonster]

Screenshot looks just like the game. I am still very excited for this one and hoping not to be disappointed.

 

[Nelo Ice]

Ok who isn't going to pick the Jew class? hahahaha

 

[Wallach]

Guy spends like 95% of the interview trying to not look someone in the eyes, it is wholly distracting.

 

[Hot Coldman]

The combat sounds fun. I like the bit with them wailing on Occupy-esque protesters, haha

 

[Chavelo]

Hahaha! The fifth class sounds awesome. XD

Screenshot looks promising. I welcome the game being in 2D.

 

[Derrick01]

Ok who isn't going to pick the Jew class? hahahaha

Crazy people, that's who.

I mean you get stronger the closer you are to death, who doesn't want Jesus power?

 

[cosmicblizzard]

So would this be considered the biggest traditional turn-based RPG from a western developer?

 

[xxracerxx]

Who is jumping through the air, I would say Stan but it looks like he has brown hair.

 

[Garcia el Gringo]

Oh wow, they're not holding back at all. I hope they spell it "Joo" like Cartman does.

 

[morningbus]

Who is jumping through the air, I would say Stan but it looks like he has brown hair.

I think it's the player character.

 

[Chavelo]

Who is jumping through the air, I would say Stan but it looks like he has brown hair.

I think that's the player's avatar.

 

[Wallach]

The main character you play isn't from the show.

 

[Buckethead]

That looks suspiciously good.

Where's the HUD and all that crap?

 

[MasterShotgun]

Wow @ the fifth class. If this game is filled to the brim with good South Park humor, I'll buy it without question.

 

[bluedeviltron]

Everyone's saying all the right things about this game. I'm fucking excited.

I never trust men with beards but no stache anyway.

 

[Derrick01]

Recently? Yeah. The original Fallouts that a lot of Obsidian's people helped make were turn based.

 

[Nirolak]

Define traditional.

Since there were a lot of turn based RPGs in the 90's, but I'm not sure if that's what you mean.

 

[Snuggles]

Nice. I'm totally behind the decision to go 2D since that means the in-game graphics will look just like the TV show. I'm getting pretty excited for this, I love the idea of a quality RPG that's all about crude and offensive humor.

 

[xxracerxx]

I think it's the player character.

I think that's the player's avatar.

The main character you play isn't from the show.

Awesome, thanks fellas.

 

[Buckethead]

P.S. The guy in that video sounds 100% like Seth Green.

 

[cosmicblizzard]

Well I mean J style in terms of formation and stuff. Something more like the Penny Arcade games and Anachronox than Fallout.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Good, I was hoping it'd look exactly like this. I'm in, looks fucking awesome.

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Sonic Chronicles!

 

[54-46!]

I was kind of hoping that I would be able run around the town in first person 3D.

 

[vehn]

Can't watch the video, what's the 5th class?

 

[Recon]

Can't watch the video, what's the 5th class?

Jew.

 

[Garcia el Gringo]

Can't watch the video, what's the 5th class?

Jewish.

 

[Nirolak]

Can't watch the video, what's the 5th class?

Jew

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Looks so good.

ShutUpAndTakeMyMackey.jpg


BTW, They should have showed a trailer at the VGAs

 

[Kinyou]

Some of those screens look like they were taken directly from the show

 

[Seanspeed]

He said '20 hours'. Just pointing that out.

 

[Nora Kisaragi]

So would this be considered the biggest traditional turn-based RPG from a western developer?

No, nothing beats Wizardry in that department.

nothing

 

[gutterboy44]

I am so on board for this game. The art direction/gfx are perfect as in it looks like South Park. If they nail the classic JRPG blend of simple but deep combat system and add a hilarious story, I don't see how they can miss.

Also, didn't know Obsidian was an Amish developer.

 

[Anth0ny]

Looking amazing so far! 5th class is so good.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

Visually fantastic, looks exactly like the show.

 

[survivor]

Sounds good. Also love the 5th class. Will definitely pick it if I get the game

 

[nyong]

This is officially one of my three blind buys for 2012. Looks awesome, not even going to take reviews into consideration.

 

[SuperAngelo64]

Huge South Park fan, so I'm really looking forward to this. I wonder what platforms it will be released on.

Not a big fan of WRPGs though, but I know Trey is a huge weeaboo, so I'm hoping to see more Paper Mario influence than anything else.

 

[MuddyDonut]

I am so hyped for this game, cannot wait. Having Matt and Trey only make this better <3
