    Personally, I think this song fits the entire game perfectly. It’s sad, but not too dark and creepy and perfect for its non-horror atmosphere. And the menu music for L4D1 fits it since it’s more of a dark game with a sad story ending.

      they're not immune, they're carriers, which means they carry the disease, but show no symptoms. Seeing all the uninfected dead bodies in the Parish campaign, the survivors were most likely killed. Though why would the military rescue them in the first place is a bit of a mystery, maybe they recruited them in the zombie killing forces or something. Idk i just really hope they're alive
