Should it not be noted that Stick of Truth will come with this version on pre-ordered games? [1] Govvy ( talk) 22:19, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
I noticed a few people messing about with the release date. On the PSN website they have it down as 31st March 2017. [2] Govvy ( talk) 12:24, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
I don't think this game is actually running on the Snowdrop engine. The only information related to this seems to be from a reveal trailer spoofing The Division, so I believe this was part of the joke. The game likely runs on an engine similar to its predecessor. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.177.112.4 ( talk) 00:34, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

I've watched the TV show but never played the game. Looks like a very interesting article. JOE BRO 64 16:32, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

The credits is everything after the game story starts and the credits begins. Including the colourful credits and the normal credits, the scene in the middle is a mid-credits scene, there is a term for this. Arbitrarily deciding that the start of the credits are not credits is not a valid way to reference something. There are also no other in-line references nor any need for them, there is no aesthetic issue with the reference at the bottom of the page, and if there were, it's at the bottom of the page.

How do you mean? All other references are in-line, if they are defined in the Reflist template or in the text body are not part of the issue. My issue is the lengthy "Trey Parker (writer), Matt Stone (writer), Jason Schroeder (game director) (October 17, 2017)." words-and-parantheses mix that is given its own section, and only referenced once (artificially split to two uses, though just 4 seconds apart). The {{ cite video game}} tempalte is specifically useful for this, and is commonly used to denote credits mentions; hence it is a way better solution than an own-section one-liner with horrendous formatting.
