Why have you done this? I remember what you did to Vampyr. Now this will be a 70 for sure :bawling:

Like in Vampyr the whole premise was the moral dilemma of do you kill people and gain more power but feel bad about it, or be moral but weaker. Except the NPCs were all either boring or annoying so it was literally impossible to give a **** about eating them. Which would have been more acceptable if the combat was amazing or something... But it was also crap.

But yeah I've had my eye on this one for a while too... However it does have some experimental game mechanics going on, so it could totally flop if they're not well polished :worry:.

Quick glance at the reviews...

...This is exactly what has happened. Called it :hmph:.

"ultimately it starts to feel frustrating quite quickly"

"By choosing the fastidious "micro-management" path, We Happy Few distracts far too much from its true potential"

"I needed to see more quality, and instead became overloaded with quantity"

"the random nature of the world ultimately hampers this ambition, and is held back further by lackluster stealth and inconsistent dialogue"


...etc etc

So I rented it and after about playing it for an hour, the story's pretty proper.

The game starts off pretty similarily to the alpha builds and stuff but afterwards that's when it starts to branch off. You're still with the downers after escaping from the tunnels but don't start the torn clothes quest, instead in order to get into the downers' town you have to retrieve a war medal from some group for a guy.
