tl;dr Definitely Stick, its not just a better game but its also a better south park episode.
Fractured gets especially tedious near the end with its constant ''puzzles'' which are all solved the exact same way pressing the exact same buttons. The games are pretty much the same length but in truth theres a whole lot less to do in Fractured since most of the activities involve you waiting for certain things to unlock and then running back to collect yet another costume.
The social media mechanic is back, but while in the first game friends are automatically added to your facebook account in the second one you have to hunt down people who arent following you and then manually take a selfi. It was cute the first 3-4 times when i actually put some effort into it , making a face , picking a filter , but i spent the next 15 hours mashing the selfi button just to get through the whole ordeal quicker.
Combat is also far better in Stick of Truth, yes its quite simple and near the end it might even be tedious but its clean and it doesn't pretend to be something its not. In Fracuted But Whole the combat is grid based and you have a lot more options since you can mix and match any and all classes in the game , but none of the abilities are particularly interesting or satisfying to use, they mostly do the exact same thing just slightly differently. Even the character specific ultimates which are quite fun in the beginning, get boring once you've seen the same unskippable animation for the 20th time.
An aspect of the combat that particularly annoyed me is the timers, to the guy who thought its fun to put real time elements into a grid turn based combat system, I hope Spontaneous Bootay crushes you in zhers booty cheeks.
Obsidian also does a much better job of parodying RPGs/epic fantasy while Ubisoft SanFran focuses more on ''culture'' and being topical.

They should upgrade to HTML5 already. It's the current year, for crying out loud.
South Park Phonedestroyer is the best!
