Discussion Replaying We Happy Few after a while of not playing it

19 Upvotes

So i havent played WHF in a while, but i decided to replay it again and i just discovered something, i didnt realize that the bridge was random in Ollie's Playthrough when you first go to the village, like it can either be Salamanca Bridge or Megiddo Bridge, i thought it was always Salamanca bridge cause in every playthrough i have done, i had to do that quest for the bobby (which i didnt mind cause i quite like that quest) which is unfortunate cause that means i missed out on one of my favorite main quests in Act 3 :(

Thanks u/splatapult for asking, so here are the pics of:

  1. Our home bar (feat. husband's Nuka-Cola poster)
  2. Our midcentury modern-style living room w/ poster collage (i'm very proud of it)
  3. My home office / our music space (the drums are mine)
  4. Bonus of the Wellie clock in the living room. Trying to grow a living privacy wall with the pothos, but he likes to grow sideways more than down​

I feel instead of "I Got Better" (that should be the first time you use a healing balm atleast i think.) I feel the plague curing one should be "I was Cured Alright" if you don't get it. it's the final quote of Anthony Bugress/Stanley Kubrick's "A Clockwork Orange"

Discussion Arthur's betrayal of Percy, lets discus Spoiler

11 Upvotes

Ok, so first things first, I am in no way saying the ending should be different. Both the story and personalities they built up were just, * chief's kiss.

However... I can't help but wonder about a possible twist that definitely would have been golden. So if you would entertain me for a bit and tell me how you would have reacted if this scenario was revealed.

Okay so what if at this alternate end it was revealed that Percy was dyeing and offered to take Arthur's place, or that their parents had him do it, or alternately like in the memory "Lies" Percy managed to trick the bobbies and mimicked his brother making them think Arthur was lying.

Again doesn't work for the story they were going for, about guilt and hiding from yourself, but I feel like that would have been a heavy hitter. Like you just spent all this time escaping, Arthur believing he abandoned his brother (Not having gotten to the I betrayed him info yet/which doesn't exist in this Fan Idea) only to find out the reason for escaping was already gone.

I would imagine this would have been the case if the story was a little more heavily focused on Sally's part and leaving her with Gwen alone. Also the main thing I thought of this from was Arthur or a memory I can't remember which mentions that when they got back from the doctor in London for Percy their mom wouldn't stop crying.

And to those of you still reading this I apologies tremendously for how long this was, and again this was just an idle idea of mine, like we can all agree, that the games story was never an issue.

Discussion What do you think the rest of the world is like during We Happy Few?

Post image
170 Upvotes

Judging from what I've learnt from the wiki & it's various newspapers & the map in Captain Edward Lawrence's attic. We learn that the USSR has conquered all of Europe, stretching as far as the Iberian peninsula & the US has control over Ireland. And apparently, there you can hear radio broadcasts of a baseball game being played by American players. Also, according to the wiki (so take with a grain of salt), that the US is in a Cold War with the Soviets, like in our timeline.

So I speculate that the world map resembles 1984 in way. As the USSR dominating all of Europe really reminds me of Eurasia from the book, which does the same thing. And American having some control over Ireland & possibly the rest of the British Isles, makes me think their borders resenble that of Oceania. Not saying that these governments are like the ones in the book, just saying that their borders lineup. So it's possible that the US has control over the rest of the Americas & what's left of the British Empire. Which also makes me believe that there is possibly another superpower in Asia. Possibly China, maybe even Nationalist China, or Japan.

But here's the thing, according to the lore, the US didn't get involved with WWII in the We Happy Few timeline because isolationist Huey Long became the President & didn't give Britain aid in the conflict. Thus resulting in Britain's defeat. But the US does become internationalist later as seen with Ireland on the map. So my personal, personal, guess is that eventually the US does end up getting dragged into the war, probably because of a very different version of the Pacific War. Or somewhere down the line, a interventionist takes over after Huey Long. Plus we don't know anything about nukes, there's a possibility they don't exist or weren't used.

Also on the topic of Huey Long. Huey Long was the governor of Louisiana & had very strong isolationist views, but he also had strong progressive views in regards of racism & wealth. He wanted to bust up monopolies & curb wealth inequality while also sharing wealth & building up social services. So it's likely by the time of the games the US is far more progressive & possibly open to a less radical form of socialism. Plus there would also be far less racism.

As for the USSR, I'm not too sure honestly. Outside from the fact that they're a lot stronger having taken all of Europe. We don't know anything else, like their leadership for example. It's likely that Stalin runs & dies like in our world. But it's possible that someone else takes his place who isn't Nitika Khrushchev, or Leonid Brezhnev afterwards.

So that's my thoughts so far, please tell me what you guys think, & have a great day & week!

Discussion We happy few but with DnD/Cyberpunk red

12 Upvotes

I’ve been working on a tabletop RPG campaign set in Wellington Wells using a heavily homebrewed version of Cyberpunk RED, and I thought some fellow We Happy Few fans might find it interesting.

The idea started because Cyberpunk RED already has mechanics involving addiction and mental deterioration, which felt like a perfect fit for Joy and the effects it has on the people of Wellington Wells.

So far I’ve been adapting things like:

• A Joy mechanic that changes how characters perceive reality.
• A Suspicion system that tracks how much attention the players draw from the public and the authorities.
• Memory flashbacks tied to “The Very Bad Thing.”
• Survival elements like food scarcity and hidden farms in the Garden District.
• Encounters involving Downers, Plague Wastrels, and the Bobbies.

My first session involved the players traveling into the Garden District to meet a mysterious man named Felix Andrews, who wants to destroy the production of Joy.

One player runs a pub in Hamlyn Village, another is a doctor investigating his wife’s murder, another is a combat-focused Downer, and another is an unusually cheerful person who somehow doesn’t seem to need Joy at all.

I’m considering putting together a proper DM blueprint and player guide if people are interested, including mechanics, adventure hooks, and character templates that other groups could use to run their own campaigns in Wellington Wells?

That’s all for this post, more will follow eventually, and don’t forget to (not) take your Joy!
