My current state of affairs: Deceased (State of Decay Spoilers)

No Caption Provided

I got a story progression bug that doesn't trigger the final mission. That might be a sad ending to my experience with State of Decay, but really, it played more into my personal tale of surviving the zombie apocalypse.

Very important if you don't want to get torn apart

My survivors had highs and lows. Like when Alcoholic Hipster learned first hand that there is a reason Cardio is rule number one. Let us not forget that one time when the Pack-A-Day Deadbeat proved his worth by taking out a Big Un. Those suckers really take a beating and a couple cars. How about Ed, that goofball, who started out being useless with even a 2x4. He became one of the pack's top dogs with his shotgun and iron crowbar combo. The list goes on. Hailey, my athletic powerhouse, hiking back to base with 4 M14s in tow. Oh, that was a good day. Maya, the leader, would often disappear and go missing but still managed to come back and bring order to the group. And oddly enough, while quick with a gun, she found more enjoyment getting up, close, and personal with a blade.

All these little stories added to the main narrative. But things changed after Maya helped Sergeant Erik blow up barricades guarding the army's position. It was painful for him exploring the fairgrounds and realizing that he and three of his men were left behind. The sarge promised that he would find a way to get us across other barricade blocking the valley and the highway. However day after day pasted. The sarge would be seen sitting inside a barn with his troops eating out of cans. Their stockpiles had dwindled down nothing. It was pitiful. He couldn't find a way for us. He had lost hope.

My group, on the other hand, was doing well enough. Constantly going out for necessities, rescuing runners, taking out infestation. But soon enough, it became a cycle. They were just surviving day by day. Eventually, they would run out of supplies and either try to find a way leave the valley or kill each other, if they hadn't already done it. I figured this is what happens when you're not the hero of the world. When you're just one of many on the sidelines dealing with the catastrophe by any means possible. Sure, someone could be out there trying to find the culprit or finding a cure. My survivors, on the other hand, have no choice but to wait and holdout until help arrives. Even though deep down, they know it wont.

Yeah, that's pretty F'd up but that's how my story ends in State of Decay and I like it. But who knows, maybe hope does prevail. But that's another story.
