    what i really like about the parish's theme is that it sounds so *final*
    like this is what the past campaigns have been leading up to; it's the final obstacle before the survivors finally escape for good

    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

    it is exactly what it makes me feel, the last death wish of 4 people who have almost tasted death, fighting like predators trying to survive with helplessness and devastation.

    My grandpa has a shotgun. I live near a small island town, so if possible I would get on it before the military inevitably blows the bridge. Hopefully at that point there will be an evac center there. If the highways are overrun, I will take my family and travel through the backwoods of our town in our van, stopping only for roadblocks and piss breaks. We would distance ourselves from the major highways and cities and fortify a house, preferably one with other people.
