It would be more funny if we even had the plot to the game. :rolleyes:
I was about to say, isn't the game still in Early Access?
Still, it's at least got an interesting premise that MIGHT make for a decent movie.
I feel like We Happy Few is the sort of concept that might make a better movie than game

Especially when they're going the "early access procedurally generated survival game" route that instantly makes its storytelling job a shitton more difficult.

See the problem with We Happy Few was never the concept, the concept is rock solid
It's just the fact that it's a open world randomly generated survival game that makes it so lackluster. Almost any genre I can think of would have made the game ten times better off.
Personally I would have either made it a pure FPS like Bioshock, or made it an adventure game or RPG.

That's the sad thing. The opening of the game sets a great scene and looks like it could lead to an interesting story, then you climb out of a sewer drain and it turns into a procedurally generated survival game. Gave me a serious case of blue balls.
If they get good writers this could make a [i]great[/i] movie. It just feels like the creator of the game had a great idea for a story but just couldn't come up with enough content to make a story driven game and just made another survival game instead, because there certainly [url=http://i.imgur.com/E7bFA1I.png[url_text]aren't enough of those nowadays.[/url] One could argue "it's survival horror, that's not as common", but there's still over 300 of those on steam so my point still stands.
