The Children, The Train, Percy

[Sheryl]

I can't hide my disappointment even after fnishing Ollie, we haven't gotten a single scap of Paper with the tiniest Note what happened to the Children. I hate "ifs" and "maybe" and "to your imagination".
Did they ship them into concentration camp?
Did they hold them hostage and theyre fine?
Did they made children soldiers out of them?
I hate Arthur for what he has done. Selling his autist brother for his freedom.

Its like reading a Thriller and at the End you still dont know who did it.

Give me anything with the Upcoming DLC. I accept anything but not nothing.

I feel like there's no real closure to Arthur's ending and that sort of thing just leaves me feeling unsatisfied. I know in real life there isn't always closure, but in a story, especially a game, there needs to be something.

I think this is the whole point your never really meant to know what happened or if percy is alive or if all the other kids are alive or what they did to them

The Game is about this very Train and the Children. Theyre the Reason for everything (besides the German being the Causer) Taking Joy to forget the Children. To be happy again. And the Downfall of all.

It explains what happened on the wiki so there must be one note that explains it but it’s strange you never find out through the main plot.

You mean the Wikia that is run by Fans and not by the Developers? There is one who wrote they where taken to the concentration camp and another Wikia who say "most likely killed". So yea.
This is basically a "pic or it didnt happen" situation. Show me the Scrap of Note in the Game where it says so and i believe it.

The wiki have a lot of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that is totally contrary to the game and to the canon, like nazis and a lot of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ about uncle jack that are total and complete lies, i deeply recommend you not to trust it.

I have always viewed the train and the germans taking the kids as the excuse for all of this to happen not the main focus Arthur goes off his joy and ♥♥♥♥ because of his brother but he doesn't know if his brother is alive or not and you will never know just as well as him and with the others it doesnt matter i remember reading somewhere that not even the general knew what the germans were gonna do with the kids so it just remains a mystery that is used for everything

[rorgfist]

maybe that was left on purpose for the sake of having some plot in reserve for the DLC, i dont know.

Well I haven't finished the game yet. Not even close I think, I'm still on Arthur in maidenholme.
But I was thinking it would be foolish of the germans to kill or imprison the children.
Wasn't it the youngest children they took? So wouldn't it make sense that they were taking them so that they could easily indoctrinate them into being good little german soldiers? That would make sense to me. Like the kind of warlord types you see around the world, who get the kids to kill their parents and then take them and stick an AK-47 in their hands.
Just what I have been thinking so far, while I have been playing.

Maybe in the story DLC we might find out more if it's not resolved here.

I was thinking that Arthur was going to find his brother and he would not even remember Arthur and would see him as an enemy or something, and then you would have to find some way to make him remember what had happened and that the germans were originally the enemy during the war. Obviously now I read this, I know he won't find him, so maybe it will happen in DLC, or we will at least get some kind of resolution to this.
Since Percy was the picture Arthur saw that started this whole thing, and the memories were all of Percy and Arthur, it would seem silly not to resolve it somehow.

[shadowsfm]

Ya, That's how I saw it too

The problem with the idea of having to wait for DLC is that the first game needs to be good enough to compel you to pay money for more content if it isn't free, and so far, WHF is not compelling enough. Aside from the absurd price and how buggy the released game is, there are a lot of things left out. We don't know what happened to the children, which is something we should've learned in this game so that if DLC does come out, it'd be about Arthur finding Percy and we might feel a sense of urgency to it, there's a huge gap in history between the time the children were taken away to the moment all of Wellington Wells started taking Joy that we're mostly missing aside from a few scraps we're given, and there are plot threads and ideas that go nowhere. If this is how the main game is, what reason do players have to invest money in DLC that MIGHT give us answers or leave us with more questions?

[rorgfist]

The game is good, but i understand if you feel is not 60$ good.

Yeah the Army of Children could have been something (awful). Since the Game is in a fictional Timeline you can't really say what very likely happened.
Since they're british and not Jews, they couldnt really went to the concentration camps. Why bother not just killing them there. (Sadly 1,5 million children where murdered by nazis).

And yes, getting a "Solution" only by buying the DLC would on one site great and on the other site really really awful money making.

I dont believe the dlc will explain what happened the dlc will just be different stories of some random guys with a random scenario happening

Pretty much this, one is about Faraday's gay guards, the other is about a rockstar and the third one is probably about Foggy Jack.
