I am doing the same thing, but I haven't imported a game before. Will the trophies be linked to my EU account if I play it on that?

The battle system (and non battle stuff) is identical, dude. If you want games that play similar to this game those are the games to play.

Speaking of Diablo in general, two of the themes in this game made me think of the Tristram theme from Diablo 2 (while not really being as complex). But then some of the music on the show made me think of the Terran music from the original StarCraft.
yes, if you play it on your eu account it will give you the trophies on that account
PC version can be played at 1080P and runs better.
I know, but I'm wondering how much that actually matters for this game. Does the game have bad performance issues on consoles? And I imagine you won't really notice the resolution difference in a 2D game of this art style. I wish there were demos so I could test the difference for myself.
Just had invisible enemies and the game hung when they went to attack me. Oh Obsidan, you never fail to disappoint with your quality control.
Playing on a friends PS3 copy while I wait for the PC one and the framerate stutters to a crawl so often to become annoying. I'm talking several second bursts of like 5fps here and I've heard similar things about the 360 version.
I don't believe it's fixed on the PC entirely, but it mitigates it somewhat.

Anyone know what the 89 megabyte patch for was today?
I found the last one near Stark's Pond in far right corner.
Loving this game so far. By biggest fear on trading in my last-gen consoles was not being able to play this game. Thankfully, it runs on about anything on PC.
Bless the Mormons.
That's...odd. That almost sounds like a bug, I can't imagine this game being very taxing on hardware. I guess I'll wait and see if the game gets any patches and then select my platform down the line. If need be I'll buy it on PC but I was hoping it would be fine on PS3 so I could play it at a friend's place.

I posted the patch notes a page (or two) back. http://neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=103274804&postcount=5387
4.5 Gigs or so.

Jesus christ. That sounds horrible with how much of the game takes place in town.
I've not had any issues like that on the PC version.

You don't necessarily need a vpn to play this once unlocked through a vpn if you're in EU. Just need to start the game from the folder, and the game launches fine with Steam in online mode, just that the friends list won't show you ingame (the overlay still works) and I doubt you get achievements.
I haven't played the PS3 version (and I haven't seen if it's actually 720p or 1080p), but here's some PC shots in comparison (720p vs 1080p), both scaled to 1080p so you can see how it'd look on a native screen.
The textures of this game are very high resolution and scale very well. The quality increase is even noticeable at 1440p (Here's a native shot of that as well).

i would look into that. either corrupted data, not enough hdd space or that ps3 is on its way out.
Thanks so much! This is a great help and exactly what I was looking for. The difference seems mostly noticeable in the character on the screen for me, as well as some objects such as the mailbox.

Yeah, that doesn't sound normal to me or it's just a PS3 version thing. I'm playing on the 360 with the game installed and while I notice some stutters here and there it really doesn't bother me in the slightest. I notice it most when auto saving or running quickly through a screen transition. Everyone's different with that kind of stuff though. I've never seen the game stutter to a crawl though.
Really? I've seen it mentioned quite often, there's even a video of it that I'll see if I can dig up.
EDIT: Can't find the video, but it's noted in the Kotaku review and here: http://www.uproxx.com/gammasquad/2014/03/five-things-know-south-park-stick-truth/
I'll try using some diagnostic thingies in safe mode, but everything else I've played recently has been fine.

So, need some help...
Stuck on the space ship, need to save Randy. There appears to be an alien dancing in a room that I cant get into. Any ideas?

I really like how they hid this.
The fact that you get a dozen friends out of that is also pretty hilarious. Although I kinda wish you got a hail satan summon too.

i definitely heard there were issues but not what youre experiencing. some people even had corrupt save files and a fresh install fixed it. try reinstalling and take it from there. but it should not be under performing to the point that its annoying.

Just watched "all cutscenes the movie" on youtube, was ok.
I find myself playing for an extra few minutes just to get to a point where it autosaves, because the hard-saving doesn't seem to work.

Quick question, still pretty early on in the game I guess:

no grind no traveling. cuts out a ton of wasted time.
Totally. I can think of a lot of RPGs where I would cut out at least half of them it would make them way better games.
Just get the Steam version then, it does not require Uplay

Sorry if this has been asked but what the heck is going on with the UK PC release? I've not received any word back from GamePointsNow and I was hoping to pre-load it for Friday's release.

The game does not require U-Play. I don't know where you got that, but it's incorrect. The game uses Steamworks and, as such, requires Steam.

Just double-checked. You're right. Off to get a physical copy. I want this game on my shelf. <3
Then I just gotta hunt down a Grand Wizard edition for PC too to keep sealed...

Cool I guess? You miss out on some much doing something like that though. There is more to this game then just the cutscenes. Dialog during game, the battles, the jokes just encompasing the whole experience.
