We Happy Few

Completed it on Xbox Game Pass and bought it on Steam just to tell how brilliant the game is. If you like the setting and the premise, you value good dialogues and scenario, go for it. The open-world, survival, crafting aspects are definitely secondary and somewhat lackluster but it's not what makes this game great, just ignore them and enjoy the rest.

очень крутая игра с интересной задумкой и сюжетом, жаль что не будет 2 части, и еще игра описывает обычный день в питере

The best worst game ever made. The story, world building and atmosphere are all perfect. Its dark, mysterious and nothing is what it seems. The gameplay experience is where it falls apart. Theres crafting and survival elements, but they seem like an afterthought and are pretty underwhelming. The stealth is ok, but the melee combat isnt. The DLCs are a lot better than the base game, but you need to play the base game to understand them better. Also the game doesnt run very well. Graphically, its about on par with subnautica, but doesnt run nearly as smooth. The $60 price tag is a joke, but on sale its worth a playthrough for the story alone.

Spoilers. We Happy Few has a talented team and It's evident in the love that was put into this game but sadly there was no care into it, too much love crammed and thrown in it. The whole game is a series of fetch quests and a game that was supposed to be social stealth but it has RPG elements inside it and the game forces itself to be a walking simulator. Every main quest and side quest has you traveling all over the map to either kill or steal, some were interesting but hearing that every main quest starts with "Travel to this far area" only to "Sorry I cannot, travel to this different area and help me" and repeat. There wasn't a single quest that went from A to B, it was always A to B to A to B to C. It's so frustrating. The amount of jank and bugs I encountered was insane, quests that never started, quests that didn't finish, soft locking, enemies falling through the floor, doing takedowns only to see the enemy being in T pose, invisible walls in the middle of the street, the map being randomly generated meant that every street was uneven, didn't lock itself well with other roads, garbage cans in front of benches rendering them useless, houses being generated randomly leaving gaps between them, wall signs in the back of the building so no one sees them.. but it's there! God. Arthur's story was.... interesting, I never learned why he left Percy to leave for Germany and lied, he was always caring and helped him and switched at the last second which was weird, I get that he was a kid but no kid would do that unless they are heartless and his relationship with Sally was so underdeveloped I forgot they knew each other and his last section was so short I could barely explore and immerse myself in the "big city" life. Sally is probably the worst character ever written for this game, she's the only woman in the cast and her only goal is her child, I barely know anything about her other that she's sly and lies, the rest of it is her being a mom. Don't you love when women are only known and explored as mothers? Let me tell ya, they aren't just machines who print babies. Her mechanic of feeling "guilty" that she lets her child alone is so dumb and stupid. Like wdym you're forcing dolls into my inventory, making me carry invisible weight, making me slow as hell and having to discard my items that I fought to hard to steal and procure (giving that she sucks at fighting and pretty much everything and no, she's not better at stealth than Arthur, the game is janky, the stealth barely works as a mechanic) because she feels "guilty". It's the worst mechanic I ever saw in a game. Her first quest made me pull my hair out, they made me travel far away from home to steal something, I had to SLOWLY walk home until I could fast travel (because, even though you have a shelter in the Garden District, it's completely closed for some reason and they WON'T let you fast travel around it because why not), only for the exactly next quest to send me in the Garden District AGAIN but now farther away. I closed the game and uninstalled, sorry, I value my time and most of all my fun. Ollie was uninteresting as a character and never got to play his part but I'm sure he has the mechanic of "be drunk 24/7 and if not, we are gonna place rocks in your inventory so you will be a snail and you have to discard your entire inventory on the floor" In conclusion, be better and don't throw 30 ideas in a game, it's never a good idea and for the love of god, as a dev, if you play your game in this state and say "it's good" I wish you the same fate that befell on Nicolae Ceausescu on the 25th of December, 1989

Кратко выражаясь эта "игра" красочная стильная обертка с полнейшим унынием и разочарованием внутри. Чтобы получить хоть какое-то удовольствие от прохождения данной *игры*, вам нужно самим упоротся радостином, LSD и еще хрен знает чем, потому что игра пуста и вам нужно подключить свое воображение для того чтобы найти здесь для себя развлечение. Потому что это явный недодел в свовокупности с креативной импотенцией разработчиков, убогость же сие игры заключается в кривой анимации, дебильном лвл дизайне - весь город это сраный лабиринт если вы выйдите за его приделы то попадете на чистые поля с морскими утесами и чтобы вернутся в город вам придется навернуть кучу игровых километров чтобы найти проход в город, ведь при попытке вернутся назад вы уткнетесь в сплошную приграду из Ctrl+v наложеных домов. А внутри города только пару домов и закоулков в которых вам предоставляется возможность спрятаться от разъяренной толпы. Так же отвратительная подача сюжета которая раскрывается через поиск масок и скучные квесты в которых диалоги и шутки уровня Монти Пайтона будут понятны только самим англичанам. В плане боевки здесь тоже все печально, нужно искать чертежи для создания оружия и прочих предметов, но из-за тупого интелекта NPC все выливается в обычный мордобой в котором нужно просто забить противника в усмерть, смысла от того пацифист ли вы или просто псих который всех убивает не имеет, в финале все будет зависеть от того сколько вы нашли масок и сколько не успели забыть от передоза "Счастья". К сожалению у игры был большой потенциал и отличная задумка, но все было просрано. Мир в игре технологически ощущается как fallout для наркоманов с городком антиутопией из bioshock 3, наркоманская атмосфера здесь передается слабо, даже в farcry 5 наркоманы вели себя более правдоподобно. Пожалуй из положительного здесь только можно выделить музыку и стилистику игры. После игры хочется закинутся кислотными марками либо ксанексом, чтобы забыть то уныние которому вы подвергаетесь во время прохождения игры

第一款全部玩完的游戏，对小小的老子大大的影响，游戏里的白月光了，玩两遍了还是很好玩，不管是剧情还是玩法，在当年绝对一骑绝尘的好玩，故事线丰富，环环相扣，点开就停不下来。 第一次开始玩电脑，盲买的游戏，当时的心情现在都记忆犹新，怀念当时还没有电子阳痿的我

Even though this game has its many flaws, it is still by far one of the best games I have ever played in my life. It is beautiful in so many ways. The soundtrack is mesmerizing. The environment is stunning, both in the Parade and Garden District. The story is incredible. The characters are memorable. The only thing holding it back was the gameplay itself and its many bugs.
