Is this game worth the price?

[A Cow]

I really enjoyed the stick of truth and actually bought 2 copies of the game. I've read some of the reviews which made me hesitate spending 60 on this game. Should I? If you played the first game, do you think it was better than TFBH?

i like it, to me it fit in well with TSoT. if still leary i say watch a open play through on youtube and see if you enjoy it,then grab the game.

Do you think its worth 60 dallors though?

i'm enjoying it enough and i got 2 sub poeple/ideas for a reply. i'm the whites black guy in town, then the blackest white guy, nicked name him uncle ruckus ;)

Easiest way to answer this question is do you think The Stick of Truth is worth $60?
If not, probably don't spend $60 on this game either.
If you do, then buy it. Worst that happens is you're not enjoying it, in which case you can refund if you've played under 2 hours.

If you liked SOT enough to buy two copies, you'll probably love TFBW.

If you like a single player RPG for 60 dollars that only lasts 20 hours that you can get the exact same enjoyment from watching on youtube, then sure.

Do you think SoT was worth it? Are you willing to ignore 3DRM system?

The game has improved upon SoT and is even more fun, and disturbingly disgusting. I had a lot of fun with it. What with going to sleep at 7 AM near constantly.

Just one more thing. The game has some strong bugs. Had been stuck in several end game fights without being able to do anything but enter menu.

The reviews are garbage right now. Launch week backlash - "this game offends me, so nobody else should buy it." They're offended by the DRM, the DLC, the Twitch partnership, the uPlay rewards, the achievements, the combat, the difficulty, the length, the ending, etc.

The ending does kinda suck. SoT had a much better ending. But the game up to that point is a lot better, and if you liked SoT you'll like this.

I agree. ''Screw you guy's'' is something that New Kid needed to say in this/after this game a lot more than in SoT.

It's expensive for 25-30ish hours of gaming with little replay appeal. I'd say it's not worth it's release price but very few games are tbh. However it is what you have to pay if you want to play it right now. The alternative is to wait another year and catch it in a sale, The Stick of Truth is what..£3-5 now as a stand alone? the game will never look outdated.

^ Seconding this.

The EU price at 60 EUR (that's over 70 USD, folks) is just not worth it.
Better to grab this in a sale somewhere during 2018, in a bundle with all its released DLC, well after Ubisoft has released patches to fix the game's current broken state.

As others have said, it probably is if you thought SoT was worth that price.

It is worth nothing that this game is quite a bit longer than SoT, though, i'd say it's about 25 hours to do all the quests, get 100% achievements, for 1 playthrough of course.

If you enjoy the game itself so much that you'd wanna do more than 1 playthrough, then it most definitely is. I'm on my second playthrough myself right now as i do enjoy it that much, despite having 100% of the achievements already.

Thanks guys. Basically, i'll enjoy TFBH is i enjoyed TSOT. Will buy it at full price then. Time to see how bad uplay actually is.

A lot of the reviews are either just badly done and not helpful, or incredibly subjective.

To repeat myself for the hundreth time, my below minimum specs comp handles this game at a flawless 60 FPS at all times, i have only encounterd a single bug in an entire playthrough including 100% achievements, which happened to also be just near the end of the game (21-22 hours in).

On the other hand, some claim to have severe technical issues, both FPS wise and supposedly way too many bugs, on good or even beastly machines. Basically, just buy the game yourself and see how bad it is for you within 2 hours, if it isn't, then keep playing.

nope its not even half as good as SoT
