Fun fact, Maxwell examining crows says that he doesn't know how they got there. But in the animation, it shows that two angry crows got taken along with Wes, so they likely populated the Constant. A small thing that Klei probably didn't think about, but I found funny still
Funny enough, this update makes people play Wes even less than before, but appreciate when he's around even more (like Medic, from TF2). I'm playing as Wes in an endless server, and while I do my part of bringing food and resources back to base, and give some balloons every now and then, I was expecting people to put me aside for being Wes, and it was actually the opposite: aside from being called cute and receiving a lot of "aaaaw"s, people actually helped me when I was in danger, or the one time I died. I was really surprised. Klei did rework Wes in a good way. Also, the worst thing to maintain now is his sanity, believe it or not.
I think Klei just made him a more useful support character with this update, and that's good. Still not good to play apparently, but now people at least want him around.
People used to get mad at me for being Wes, ESPECIALLY if pvp was on!! Now I have friends who think it’s fun, (my old friends genuinely bullied me for even liking Wes!)

Fitting for Wes, he struggles more so others can have it mildly easier. Low on Pig skin on a rainy day? Wes can blow a hat. Hounds coming? Wes is a great meat shield, even if he'd rather not be. Strapped for sanity? Balloons baby! Base looks bland? Use Wes to decorate. Need some entertainment? We have a mime here, so enjoy his presence.
Yup! Saved that surprise for those looking to try it all out! I would like to see the look on their surprised faces when they wonder what hurt them! :D
I find the fact that Wes chops trees slower to be extremely funny There's a character in this game that's literally, canonically, a little girl And Wes chops trees slower than her Lmao
I really like how it plays in his double identity as either a lousy failure and implicit "ultra hard" singleplayer mode or as a supportive role in teams, the latter being brought out more in this update too. I like that dual role and hope they maintain and keep up both aspects of it.
I hope this rework sticks around. Me and my friends occasionally try to get as far as we can (Haven't made it past summer yet lol) but we have a dedicated Wes main, and this will actually help a ton come spring time. Makes up for the time he ate the Deerclops eye while trying to hand it to me
Fun Fact: The speedy balloon can be used as a short-lasting flare, since you can see them on the map, but only when you drop them. A Wes had used this trick to help me find his base.
I find it interesting that the more Wes suffers, the more benefits he gives to allies if they can tolerate how much of a burden he is. You can use him to lure lighting to your rods, have him make balloons for walking or sailing, and his balloons help others recover sanity after farming nightmares. Heck, you could use him to farm nightmares because how easy it is for him to lose sanity if he keeps making balloons.
Wes should've gotten the balloon mech from the animation, it would pop on being attacked but also absorb the attack along with having a movement speed boost and a very weak ranged attack and melle
I thought that the party balloon was going to aggro mobs and combined with his other new mechanics make Wes a bad luck lightning rod like he is in his short
I think they just need to give Wes a purpose. The game is generally hard enough already, why not give him some crazy endgame capabilities but make it ridiculously hard to actually get there?
i feel like this is a good fit for wes make him odd in the fact he is hard to play since he has bad luck and all that however the pro is he brings good luck to others in the way of buffs and other things. Make him the "healer" of the game one could say.
That would still mean that we would see Wes heating up and freezing faster than others even without clothing. In fact, he should be heating up or freezing even faster without them!
@@TheBeard777 can't help you there. people on the forums are digging in the coding as we speak and this is stuff that is being found. in a week i am sure there will be an answer to this but for now this is what we've got
4:05 That hat actually gives 10.4 sanity in the cost of 5 sanity (1.3 sanity per minute over 8 minutes) , but beware it will explode on your face if you get damaged wearing it or the durability goes down to 0.
Wait.. really? And not just as a a joke animation like last time? Huh. Also, wow that animated short. The implications. No wonder Maxwell locked him up under the reasoning that "he displeased me" I choose to believe Wes Wednesday had a part in making this happen.
Wes’ bad luck only came after breaking a mirror, which is said to bring 7 years of bad luck. I think it’d be funny if after 7 years in one world of playing Wes he’d just have no bad luck anymore
When Wes wears that ballon hat he should take no or less damage to lightning Cause you rubber and lightning, unless the balloons aren’t made of rubber idk
So... Then wes now becomes more fragile than maxwell because of his other stats and an "support" character that we can't count in normal task like mining, chopping. Unless they make a change in that later on.
so, in the start of the animation, where wes ''cuts'' an invisible ''wall'' people say its actually a mirror, and breaking a mirror guives you 7 years of bad luck, does it mean, 7 years AFTER this animation, wes will be ''freed'' from his bad luck, and maybe get a considerable rework/buff? note: this is a joke
Speed boost is interesting, giving him at least some scout potential or support. I almost wish the party baloon was better to give real help during a boss fight or be like a mobile campfire story. I don't see the point of making his already joke stats ABYSMAL, even making him vulnerable to temperature changes? We get he's a challenge character but he's becoming a waste of a server slot where people might actively hunt down a Wes player so their friends can join or reduce lag slightly (cause russian Wilson has worse ping and a less interesting character but screw Wes now) I might like if he did get struck by lightning ala WX's lightning rod overdrive except replace getting a full heal and speed up with just not taking the damage and a funny quirk to worst character, maybe even a lifesaver for certain bases. The hounds is also kind of funny and could help control where the hounds attack if someone is wandering.
Yeah... some of these changes don't seem to work as advertised most of the time. That's why I am STILL not convinced as to whether some of this is real or not.
We don't know what's going to happen this year but last year the April Fools stuff didn't last long and we're taken away until this year so I'm just giving a warning to get it all ASAP just in case.

So you have any ideas for wes Wednesday?
If they kept this on him then I would play him but idk
We got bamboozled by Klei during April Fools! 😂
I now see your problem with making a guide or quick bit on lightning
I like the idea that Wes has it harder than everyone else, but in exchange he makes it easier for everyone else.
He's the carry character
Wes is best
@@lucyrose7365 wes: the medic

Fun fact, Maxwell examining crows says that he doesn't know how they got there. But in the animation, it shows that two angry crows got taken along with Wes, so they likely populated the Constant. A small thing that Klei probably didn't think about, but I found funny still
For me it’s pretty clear the Klei did think about that. Maxwell didn’t know how they got there because Wes “brought” them when he was kidnapped.
Yes, it was one of their many retcons to come and I have zero issue with that! :D
Seems pretty deliberate tbh
Doesn't have to be a retcon. They could've flown away before Maxwell appears before the sleeping newly kidnapped Wes.
Crows be like: o no we got captured by some weird magic shit,btw wanna do sez?😳😳😳
Can we appreciate the fact that Wes blows out helium for his balloons?
Maybe that's what destroyed his vocal cords
Maybe that's why is HP is so low.
yea
o.o
add knockback to him
@@someoneusedtobeknown2645 your comment got liked 69 times.
Oh yeah, Wes is also the reason Crows are in the constant. Two of them were pulled in with him when he got pulled in!
Yup! Retcon! :D
@Poggers Man no wonder theres so many
And they started breeding
Maxwell comments on them being there
If you drop a speedy balloon, then it will be visible on the map! It works as a sort of flair!
For a short, while yes!
that's actually kinda awesome
Wes getting into the constant by complete accident seems fitting for him
And he saved a man from a very, very bad fate at the hands of Maxwell too...! 0_o
@@TheBeard777 true, I like how they gave him a bit more character in this short than the others
What if the character he pushed away ended up joining and when inspecting Wes, he says something like “Thanks for buying me some time.”
@@MisterBrick42 that'd be interesting

The fun fact is that he is the only character who cannot prepare his favorite food himself and it recovers more than double his maximum hunger points
I really like how it plays in his double identity as either a lousy failure and implicit "ultra hard" singleplayer mode or as a supportive role in teams, the latter being brought out more in this update too. I like that dual role and hope they maintain and keep up both aspects of it.
That’s why he was happy with half in the animation, because he literally cannot eat a whole one :)
Another fact:This food make by Warly, which makes me think that Warly had cafes and Wes loved his food.
I hope aspects of this are not reverted, like the new balloon items he can make, the animations, and the higher chance of lighting.
They won't be, at least not at this point. They have given us a taste and if they want unhappy campers then taking it away if how they will get them.
I love the new voice line that Klei gave to Wes. It's so dramatic!
wes was a person with a kind heart but with really bad luck, he doesn't deserve the hate he gets after seeing what he went through
I hope this rework sticks around. Me and my friends occasionally try to get as far as we can (Haven't made it past summer yet lol) but we have a dedicated Wes main, and this will actually help a ton come spring time. Makes up for the time he ate the Deerclops eye while trying to hand it to me
Wes is once again the best.
Wes mains deserve better

Being that Wes is a mime I am surprised Klei didn't give Wes the ability to make invisible walls.
That would be HELL.
@@ciceroissad4821 well not truely invisible, but "invisible" to all mobs. It would work like stone walls except mobs wouldn't pathfind around it.

@@ciceroissad4821 What do you mean?
@@joshuarichards8065 Imagine putting invisible walls around the spawn.
Well it seems wes has become even harder to play
Yet atleast useful in some regards for early and possibly late game if others are gonna go sailing for the lunar and possibly crabby island.
Wes is now what you called a support character after the update
wes is actually a god tier character wdym
I hope this update stays until next April fools then gets changed and so on and so forth that would be extremely funny
I am just kind of sad that he just went in the constant by coincidence. I would have like him to get in it thanks to his mime talents.
the fact that wes breathes out helium makes him the most busted character
Wes should've gotten the balloon mech from the animation, it would pop on being attacked but also absorb the attack along with having a movement speed boost and a very weak ranged attack and melle
I thought that the party balloon was going to aggro mobs
and combined with his other new mechanics make Wes a bad luck lightning rod like he is in his short
Really excited for the inflatable vest to be used. Makes him important to sailing.
You forget that the Speedy balloon act as flare if he let it go ,that was shown us on the klei stream on twitch.
For not a whole lot of time, yes.
I think they just need to give Wes a purpose. The game is generally hard enough already, why not give him some crazy endgame capabilities but make it ridiculously hard to actually get there?
I like how he was never supposed to enter the constant
I just thought: “wait is Wes actually good?” When I saw the balloons but I gave up when I saw everything else
None will be the same after they played wes... A LOT.
Not just trolling but actually trying to survive.
Hopefully they keep Wes like this, even if they made his stats more hardcore. This really suits his character.
“A true act of kindness, sparks another” not for Wes though...
Klaus, love it
I'm glad they didn't make him good. He has been, and always should be, a challenge character
When the nicest guy has the worst luck: 👁👄👁
That balloon for sanity is pretty awesome
The Twitch was so calm
In my opinion I do not think it would be wrong to buff HP, Hunger and Sanity a little.
His animation too me is the best i feel so sorry for him as he helps so many people and ends up getting punished for it
Wes before update: long pig source
Wes after update: **Useful**
the update made wes a more team centered maxwell except all stats instead of only health are 75
He is actually incredibly powerful now
I like how I got the Wes animation as an ad
Wes went from challenge to below average Support
i feel like this is a good fit for wes make him odd in the fact he is hard to play since he has bad luck and all that however the pro is he brings good luck to others in the way of buffs and other things.
Make him the "healer" of the game one could say.
I am going to Jedi mind trick you:
“You will make a wall guide video”
Fun fact beard is part toydarian and they are immune to mindtricks
the heating and freezing applies when wearing clothes, also the bunny hat prevents damage from a single lightning strike
That would still mean that we would see Wes heating up and freezing faster than others even without clothing. In fact, he should be heating up or freezing even faster without them!
@@TheBeard777 can't help you there. people on the forums are digging in the coding as we speak and this is stuff that is being found. in a week i am sure there will be an answer to this but for now this is what we've got
This proves I am still best character.
I was hoping there would be some additional crafts, and some involving music.
But I loved the animation and I loved the additions
Animation was pretty great as per usual!
4:05 That hat actually gives 10.4 sanity in the cost of 5 sanity (1.3 sanity per minute over 8 minutes) , but beware it will explode on your face if you get damaged wearing it or the durability goes down to 0.
It can actually be quite good.
We mention both these things in the pinned comment.
I got the Wes ad when I started this video
The new updates have simplified the characters and gameplay a lot. I think it's time to be Wes Main
Not the change we needed, but the change we deserved
I like how they updated this character the one everyone laughs at before the one people actually play
Keep up the great work Beard! 😁👍
Thanks! Will do!

@@gregtheegg7030 it was 11 pm ffor him when this video dropped so he went to sleep instead and told beard to do something kind
the reduction to sanity was a bit much i think, it limits his baloonmancy ability early on.
Can, if you are not one to pick flowers I suppose. I mean, one flower for a short speed boost over and over is hard to argue against.
4:27 huge come spring
Wait.. really? And not just as a a joke animation like last time? Huh.

people watching at 11:59 pm: s p e e d
When you realize this was year long con and they planned this!
Wes has actually been strong are gods power is slowly returning YAY
Don't be discourage by the lower health and everything as lower hunger makes it easy regain hunger to full along with health and sanity.
I agree, the removal of the hunger drain makes the stat lowering tolerable.
The hat is really useful and speedy balloon
Underrated channel
Finally Wes can be top tier now
what do you mean hes always been top tier
*middle tier
Anyone else appreciate the irony of making a
Challenge Character easier to play? 😆
I understand why but it still amuses me.
Now it’s more of a support character.
Wes’ bad luck only came after breaking a mirror, which is said to bring 7 years of bad luck. I think it’d be funny if after 7 years in one world of playing Wes he’d just have no bad luck anymore
Klei messing with us doin this on April 1st
Finally my boy gets some recognition
I wonder who could be than man than almost get caught in the constant and that was also save by wes.
The speed balloon when dropped acts as a flare on the map
This is obviously the best remake yet.
So, Beard. Do you want them to keep these changes or bring back our regular Wes?
Nah, this is all fine. Some need to be actually implemented I think but I wouldn't mind any of this really.
FINALLY I CSN PLAY WES
You forgot to mention that was can pick up and hold all of the balloon kinds. Only speedy does anything though.
Nah, that's in the pinned comment. Plus, it would be a fun thing for people to discover for themselves anyways.
