Before you start to attack me for saying that, i’m going to say one thing, i actually like Kyle and i think him and the New Kid should date.
However, Kyle and the New Kid are NOT in friendly terms and their relationship could be considered abusive and problematic.
In South Park: Stick of Truth, Kyle tells his army of elves to kidnap the New Kid and he blackmails him to tell everyone that he’s a butthole if he doesn’t recruit the Goth kids to him, Kyle was literally blackmailing a kid do what he wants just because he was in Cartman’s side, plus, Cartman was much friendlier and welcoming towards the New Kid and even was willingly to help him to improve his combat skills.
But the thing is, Kyle feels no remorse for the way he has treated the New Kid, even if you stay by his side, Kyle will only give him a half-ass apology and that’s it, plus, he doesn’t give a damn about the New Kid at all, he’s just using him to defeat Cartman.
In South Park: The Fractured But Whole this is even worse, because Kyle is much meaner here than he was in Stick of Truth, in the previous game, Kyle had a reason for treating the New Kid poorly, however, in this game, he is very rude towards the New Kid...for no reason at all and flat out tells him to beat up his own cousin! And this become more disturbing if you choose to play as a girl.
And you know the funny thing, none of the Super Heroes are shown to treat the New Kid poorly, yeah, Cartman treats him coldly and he backstab him later on, but he’s still willingly to help him and they make up at the end, Kyle, however, never apologizes for the way he treated the New Kid and he is almost never actually scold, the only person who call him out is literally his mom.
I really want a game where Kyle and the New Kid work together, because i’m getting sick of seeing him being portrayed as a callous sociopath.
