That would actually work though, seems fun. I'll try it next time I'm bored.

to be fair, you would not be bored. you would be terrified.

If it makes you feel alive...

“I’m bored, let me go outside and run past my dead neighbors who now want to tear me limb from limb.”

And this is why horror games exist

Hol up

Wait a minute…

sus

Somethin' ain't right

Something isn’t adding up here, I can feel it.

So you're the one who made me pick claustrophobic

woah fr?

I mean, just the idea of being bored in a zombie apocalipse is kinda far fetched, so It really makes sense that you get rid of the boredom instantly by crushing some zombie heads, don't you think?

Always found it weird how you could get bored while killing zombies. You could have a lot of emotions while killing or seeing zombies but boredom should never be one.

@@justanotaku1420 Yeah, big time this, this is literally fucking stupid. But at least it goes away if you're panicked unless desensitized (Which is another stupid thing that you can kill thousands of zombies and never adapt to violence... It's actually really braindead that this isn't a vanilla feature, regardless of if this game is early access or not all their design trends don't inspire confidence especially with how nonsensical and just plain dumb these mechanics are.)

if I was starving to death in the apocalypse the last thing on my mind would be "hmm, this pizza is a bit bland" lmao

@@Tyrops I'd be like "holy shit pizza, I'd better enjoy this before I'll probably never get some more

When you eat a 2 week old chuck e cheese pizza that has become a solid rock

Project zomboid is the only game where I can made a peanut butter sandwich so bad it instantly makes me suicidally depressed.

@@Saktoth am i really the only one who's that bad at making food in real life

no internet man, that's the difference

It's probably the crushing desolation that's driving your character to depression. Seriously, we need interactable NPCs in this game.

Internet and games changes that. Ever since I got the net, I never wanted to go outside again.

Let's be honest, we would all totally lose our minds in 1 hour if the power switched off.

haha same here, i just don't get it

Can you still build floors out a window?

@@Saktoth no.

100% can confirm... and I'm not just talking about PZ.

I usually skip beer because beer makes you sleepy and takes a lot of space but I might carry 1 or 2 cans just in case

@@gerald5561 Booze is great in multiplayer where you don't get tired! No downsides!

Also satisfies hunger and doesn't spoil you can live off booze for quite a bit.

Me starting in the Riverside Bar: Hungry... drink beer. Bored... drink beer. Need weapon... glances around at empty beer bottles.

yes however it might not work when the "the big sads" kick in, sadly.

"The Sad" is a devious and cunning beast. If you think you've got it under control without therapy and antidepressants, you . . . probably haven't. *(Although I realise that antidepressants exist in Zomboid, your best bet for therapy is to hook up with a community containing an ex-therapist in an RP server).*

or you can always just take the gamer way out with a revolver

@@AmalekIsComing hey friend, I understand that you probably had something funny in mind when you sent this, but it's mostly just unsettling. I don't think you should be embracing the kind of mindset that lends itself to suicidal ideation, even as a joke. Violent humor isn't a good coping mechanism, and it really only serves to reinforce your own negative perceptions, conscious or subconscious. I'm definitely not saying that you can't joke about suicide, ultimately that's up to you, but I think you'd be a lot happier if you didn't!

@@SupahMario643DSiXL is this a copypasta or something?

It does! It makes it harder to deal with this stuff which is an interesting caveat The zombie apocalypse is no fun if you're ready for it it seems :(

You have to pick either Panic, which will MASSIVELY drag the killing of the handful (to maybe a small herd) of zeds causing you panic.... Have to prepare an open space in your safehouse to keep boredom in check to outright be forced to use consumables to bring happiness. Also Veteran impedes you from picking ANY Panic inducer/easer negative trait and vice versa

Veteran just means that boredom has to be cleaned as you stay outdoors, so by the time you whooped the brains of the last zed of a 10-12 herd, boredom might just been gone entirely from how long you stayed outdoors, and the exhaustion hits you

@@GreenTeaTheTea Bro that's statement is one hell of a right. It also comes from memories of the past and that nothing is not that fun as it was...

I've found that it works just fine. I always come back from looting runs not bored.

Yeah LOL

Damn right. What is all this "being outdoors cures boredom" nonsense? Know when I'm most bored? When I'm outside... typically walking from A to B.

Not that the sanity bar does much right now.

or you know go inside a house

@@zwenkwiel816 I think the power has to be on for a building to warm you in the game.

@@Cacowninja that's why you pick one with a fireplace or get one of those metal stove things. like if you haven't even sorted out the heating in your house reading shouldnt really be a priority IMO XD

@@Cacowninja buildings provide some insulation without power (or doors/windows for that matter) but they provide much more with power. TBH unless you set up freezing temperatures in sandbox you're good with enough clothing.

Anxiety happens for a few reasons: - You're hemophobic and currently have blood on you - You're a smoker and haven't had a smoke recently - Your character just had a nightmare (that anxiety will go away on its own), nightmares being mostly caused iirc by wearing dirty clothes or having killed a lot of zombies recently - Your character is sick and the anxiety represents their fear of dying from the disease

Is Rosewood any good? I started in the Riverside Bar and have been slowly.... um... depleting the beer supply while looking for a bed so I don't have to pass out in my own vomit on the floor for the 5th time.

With no loot respawns multiplayer is different, but you can get cigs and lighters from killing mass zombies, and food/weapons are easily acquired through other skills. Fishing/foraging/trapping/farming will supply you with food even on the lowest abundance settings. Meanwhile a propane torch and welder mask (which you can get from respawning zombies) will give you near infinite pipes for short blunt by destroying the fences that don't use up any gas. As the months roll by on the server zombies begin to spawn with weapons in them much more often and you will find yourself buried under hunting knives. With axes and crowbars being a little more rare. In fact I feel like axes aren't viable until zombies start spawning with them often so you can drive around and pick them off. Multiplayer seems really hard at first, but you have all the tools necessary to survive if you are willing.

Yeah I decided to to cars as my next video because I swear they used to take less damage.

@@Retanaru Amazing, looking forward to it!

I've been looking for a mod to make cars take less damage, but for the life of me I can't find one. There USED to be one that slowed the wear and tear on cars, but apparently that one doesn't work any more.

Apocalypse Goals: Make it like the end of Shaun of the Dead... where the zombies are just exploited for entertainment.
