We Happy Few: E3 2016’s Sleeper Hit - MONG

E3 was once again an overdose of intoxicating games: Horizon: Zero Dawn, Final Fantasy XV, Gears of War 4, Dishonored 2, South Park: The Fractured But Whole, Prey, The Last Guardian, and many more provided a gush of excitement and a pre-ordering frenzy. Among these games was Compulsion Games’ roguelike first-person survival thriller We Happy Few -- this year’s E3 sleeper hit.

I get this sort of clockwork orange vibe off this game.

naruga3616d ago

while when i first saw the game in previous E3 i though another Bioshokesque -generic game . in this trailer had an unnerving horror which instantly absorbed you.. im waiting to see more

Lightning Mr Bubbles3616d ago (Edited 3615d ago )

Bioshock.

That's the first thing I thought of when I saw this game.

Cy3616d ago

Looks very nice but I have no idea why it needed to be in early access.

Fin_The_Human3616d ago

Very small development team...early access gamers are pretty much testers which help speed alomg the game...bigger companies like Activision and EA have lots of money so to them they don't need early access.

Same with ARK.

TylerFischer3616d ago

Over time I've grown a tad skeptical of early access games, however, Compulsion Games is a small team and I think they realized the potential hit they have on their hands with this game, Microsoft probably made that realization as well. Their last game Contrast was pretty poor, so going into early access will hopefully allow We Happy few to escape a similar fate by providing important feedback and more time.

Saw the demo last night. Definitely a more interesting game than the trailer let on.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing12d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit12d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing12d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9212d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
