I am going to delete all the dumb, aspergers worthy discussion threads.

this is not the place for talking about butts and farts and shrimp. take that to your plurk or rpanons.

also, to anyone in that plurk because i know you're furiously f5ing this meme and shlicking to the idea of being namedropped, maybe you should stop blaming the hate meme and start blaming the two-faced bitches you associate with who leak your private shit.

hth, mouthbreathing motherfuckers.

i hate fake survival type games that are really just the same old dull domestic slice-of-life except without indoor plumbing

no wait, the abandoned post-apocalyptic cities they're set in always magically have working modern amenities like clean running water and restocked supermarkets

how about a REAL post-apocalyptic survival game that doesn't handwave the actual basic survival part that you would think would be the fucking point of a survival game

having to hunt and gather to eat because the supermarket food is spoiled and toxic

water treatment system doesn't work so you have to figure out how to get clean water because nothing comes out of the tap and as a side bonus of that lol no working toilets unless you have water onhand to dump into the tank

no electricity unless you can find a generator and can find the gas to keep it running, or find working renewable energy equipment

phone/cellular system doesn't work so no communicators unless the characters track down some kind of radios or walkie-talkies and then have to worry about finding usable batteries or recharging renewable ones

hard mode: something more creative than zombies as a recurring problem for the survivors to deal with

I've always thought that some variant on Siren's Pull's nighttime mode would be really, really good for a REAL survival game. Everything outside of sealed or blessed or whatever rooms turns all Silent Hill on you (animals, plants, buildings, trees, everything) so you can't have players trying to fence off half the city and devolve into boring slice-of-life in their safe haven of big homes and wheat fields.

And players should really be made uneasy about the fact that they're eating plants and livestock that have been exposed to everything turning all Silent Hill every night, and the animals have been eating possibly contaminated food themselves. Are characters going to get infected with something? Does the food still turn toxic at night? Does water? When characters die, do they become something terrible because they've built up that shit in their bodies like radiation?

Paranoid characters could have an absolute blast with this.

I've been aching for a survival game that actually enforces survival, and I'm sick of networks. I don't want a game where everyone has their standard rp setting conveniences rebuilt in a month, either. It makes us lazy. And in a true SURVIVAL game there's always easier and more exciting interaction hooks than "uh...I guess they can run into one another in the rebuilt, fully-stocked mall and shuffle their feet aimlessly for a bit while making small talk."

I would drop all my games like hot potatoes for a true survival game. Getting so tired of slice-of-live and all amenities covered, plus the ease of communicators.

All the survival anons should team up somewhere, because god damn.
