South Park RPG Class List Includes the Jew

[Valanthe]

Fox is gonna have a field day with this, and it will be GLORIOUS.

No, Fox wont touch this. Then MSNBC will go apeshit over this and point out how hypocritical Fox is they see the jew class and DONT rail on it like they would rant and rail on an offensive video game that is anything less than favorable to either christianity or conservative views like intolerance toward homosexuality.

Most likely a double dip from Ed Schultz and Rachel Maddow me thinks.

Fair enough. point still stands though, it should be good for some laughs. Let's face it, we all know that they named the class Jew for the express purpose of pissing someone off enough to get them free advertising.

.
No! They had an episode in which the entire gang dressed up as D&D characters and played a quest like the one in Lord of the Rings! Then Kyle, the Jew of the gang, said his class was a Paladin, but Cartman, the asshole fatass called him a Jew and said that Jews can't be Paladins.
It's a joke referring to the show!

I am actually aware of where the reference came from, I've watched more than enough of the show that I won't be surprised if one of the raid bosses is "That Which Has No Life" and can only be defeated by a player wielding the "Sword of a Thousand Truths." My orignal post was a reference to the fact that Parker and Stone aren't afraid to skewer "hot button" topics for laughs and ratings.

On that note however, a few predictions:

There will be a quest/mob involving Pink Eye zombies and worchestershire sauce
We will Kenny, us bastards.
We will also kill Hippies and Scientologists

Anything else, or should I just stop while I'm ahead?

The combat sounds like it will be a combination of Paper Mario and Final Fantasy VII. It will be turned-based but you'll definitely get chances to react to attacks with a timed button press. But the whole gimmick of the game is that all the kids are pretending they are casting spells and bashing each other with maces, but they are actually doing real life things like throwing something on fire pretending it's a magic missile.

It sounds like Costume Quest. But I loved that game. And I love Obsidian. And I...well I don't dislike South Park. Haven't watched it in ages though.

I just hope ManBearPig is a summon. When I saw him on the cover I was like, "Yes."

 

[Smooth Operator]

Well you would expect them to make humorous classes all around but this just stinks of accountant humor, you know the one where noone laughs... ever.

 

[Capt. Crankypants]

Oh this is bullshit. Look at all the Jewish-jokes flying around here, but I make one joking reference to 'beige' being 'Jewish racing gold' in a thread and I receive a mod warning. What the hell?!

Whatever. But, a Southpark game? Might be all right, as long as they don't censor the shit Matt and Trey are allowed to come up with. And anyone who doesn't get the whole Jew-class thing needs to watch more Southpark, specifically the LOTR episode.

 

[Hookman]

The list of available classes is Fighter, Mage, Thief, Cleric and ... Jew.

Wait a minute....Thief and Jew? Isn't that just redundant?

I am so, so sorry. I couldn't stop myself.

On topic, the way they describe the class makes it sound like a MOSSAD agent. If Cartman is making the game, why would he use the basis of the ultimate badass Israeli for his stereotype?

You goddamn joke ninja! We're both going to Jewish Hell aren't we?
OT: Did anyone expect different? Its South Park! If its not morally dead then whats the point?!

CAPTCHA: Polfice Recorded

Take out the 'f' and I would be very, very worried.

If Jews get offended at SouthPark, then they should stop being so fucking Jewish.

Seriously, every single race or religion can find something to be offended about if they look hard enough I'm offended by the way stupid people are depicted in cartoons, because I'm stupid. Everything is fair game, everything from your religion, your skin colour, and any diseases you might have. Accept it, laugh at it, because people need to stop taking this crap so seriously. There is more offensive material in Family Guy and the Simpsons than in South Park IMO, because South Park has always had the same attitude, you know what to expect - nobody has a right to be shocked at what they see in South Park.

Personally I can see me choosing the Jew class, sounds like a pretty good idea to have the power based on health, I'm intruiged.

 

[Elementary - Dear Watson]

FUCK
this just killed the game for me since in the german version the Jew class will be immortal and one-hit everything, thanks guys.

Love it mate! Nice one!

Unfortunately I cannot take the micky out Jew myself, as I do not have any Jewish friends! They are not very common in the UK! :S

 

[CrazyJew]

I am a Jew and I approve of this. It's heil-airous.

 

[Scarim Coral]

Some Jewish community will take offences to this in 3, 2, 1...

"The closer he is to death, the more powerful his abilities become. So you're strongest when you are at one hit point, but you're also just about to die."

*ahem* CoH Blaster.

 

[Abedeus]

I'm guessing Jew will be the Archer... I mean since Thief is taken NO BAD JOKE BAD JOKE.

i -HATE- Southpark. Its Vulgar, its Racist, Its Frankly Discusting, And it really seems to only cater for Lowest-Common Denominator Humor. I mean, Ive seen snippets of the show, and there are only so many ways that a show can make Penis jokes. I also saw part of the World of Warcraft eppisode, but stopped watching after one of the characters Defecated on his mothers face For Absolutely no reason .

Horrible show, This will be a horrible game, and the world will be worse for it.

South Park has been relatively free of penis jokes, it's stupid and low-brow fun.
Watch the entire show before judging and LIVE A LITTLE, can't live life all uptight now can we?

 

[Linkmeanie]

I actually have the magazine this article was in, and read it.
They specifically mentioned no racist, Jewish related stereotypes will be associated with this class.
The name is the whole joke.

Hope this clears it up.

He didn't defecate on her face, he defecated into a bedpan she held underneath him; since he had rather explosive diarrhea, some of it happened to get on her face. So, he wasn't aiming for her face, and the joke had context - it was this notion of the boys being so addicted to WoW that they simply didn't have time to do anything else brought to a hyperbolic extreme.

I'm not saying that the joke isn't crude, but your description of the joke was inaccurate. And the word is spelled "disgusting"...and "South Park"...and you don't need to capitalize a large portion of the words you chose to capitalize. Alright, I'm done.

South Park is AWESOME!

*Runs away*

well...i *WAS* drinking a nice cold mountain dew...now i'm wiping it off my table after an explosive spit take...well played you...well played..

OT: i cannot wait to see more about this game, everything those two have worked on lately has turned amazing, let's see if the magic works again

Whether or not he was aiming at a bedpan or not is completely overshadowed by the fact that he defecated on his mother. Context has nothing to do with it. Also, im CERTAIN that most people wouldnt bother trying to find the context in that joke - Most humor isnt that witty.

And yes, i know i capitalize random words for no real reason. My history teacher from school noticed too, and he kept buggering on about it as well.

 

[Furioso]

If we are going off of the Lord of the Rings episode, then the Jew class is the Paladin class, Kyle says that he is a Paladin, while Cartman insists that he can only be a Jew

I am very excited for this game, of course it is going to offend people, but that's what they do, the offend everyone, you just gotta roll with the punches when your number comes up in their lottery pool

 

[chif-ii]

So let me get this straight. The way you play the Jew is to basically keep him on the very brink of death? That is so South Park.
