    I didn’t watch this video because videos like this are just dumb, without you WATCHING or being told anything etc u can already conclude u aren’t surviving “ANY” f’en zombie out breaks etc they are VIDEO GAMES!!!!
    For A REASON.
    If any of this stuff even SLIGHTLY happened in RL the world would be f’ed. don’t need a VIDEO TO TELL ME THAT or SOMEONE to detail or make a “list” of “why we all gonna die”.
    U know why this world wouldn’t survive? Because the mentality is that is RIGHT HERE. People MAKING VIDEOS about how they won’t survive a fictional video game scenario and why they wouldn’t survive etc.
    That RIGHT THERE, that’s why I don’t need ANYTHING to tell me or show me, if any of this stuff truly happened, the world would be f’ed because that’s the MENTALITY u have in this world. U think THAT right there is winning a zombie apocalypse? A kid making a YT video about how the world wouldn’t survive a fictional video game scenario? That’s what’s gonna win? Save the world?
    Again, no video or list or any of that needed. World would be F’ed.
    Nice try anyways 👏

      Def wouldn't survive. If you were lucky enough to survive the initial airborne disease you would quickly become overwhelmed by zombies because the government didn't try to eradicate them rather try to just contain and maintain a border, no help is coming, you are fucked. If you try to escape you will be shot on sight by the military (if you survive long enough for the military to fall apart you'll just be unable to escape the apocalypse in general)
      You are alone and you have no hope, if you manage to live through everything you will eventually succumb to your own loneliness and isolation will drive you insane

    No lie. Some of the biological anatomical and physiological things that are mentioned and happen in some of these apocalyptuses really get you thinking on your own genealogy, biology, anatomy and physiology. Like the mention of how the autophage is sitting. Dormant in everyone's DNA in the Dead Island series. What kind of mutations or transformations are hidden within our own DNA in real life and how we are all technically on a biological countdown? Usually we end up dying before that. Biological countdown is reached but it's still a pretty scary thought

    After a certain missing quest, I’ve come to believe that the starting point for a Numen’s odds aren’t as bad as it’s made out.
    My reason? The bombers. There ends up being a specific bomber you can accidentally talk to (even before that, bombers are talking all game, but this guy is holding full conversations with you) and notes found say that he was 100% completely normal before his, well, particular situation. Even that his bite mark was healing up just fine, something that does not happen if not immune (due to infection happening too quick)
    I think somewhere in that time frame between when he was last seen til we see the guy (don’t want to spoil it, it was a pretty big shock) there’s an important final step in the Numen process, in which failing it results in the Bomber state, in which the person is still there, in a rejection state of the virus, and ultimately culminates in exploding to a victim (whether in a quest to seek help and becoming too excited, or becoming overly deluded by whatever this entity is, and seeking to infect/kill others with it’s explosion)
    Think about it. During the game, even after our character accepts being ‘immune’, they constantly have these rushes in which they become incredibly sick. Kondradt describes the player as “clinging to the edge of the pool, afraid to let go” and forces them to undergo the fury state. However, even after this, she does not describe them as anything different until AFTER the incident with the first Mutator, in which she specifically refers to them then as “Rebirth”.
    That implies to me then that our character was still working the infection around in their bodies, that they weren’t to be labeled as “Numen” until it finally settled in the body.
    I think the only reason the odds are so bad in the beginning are because of how people fear the massive unknown that this outbreak is, it culminating somehow into the fail process that results in Bombers, instead of Numen.
    This is just a theory though. Looking forward to the next two dlcs (I got the season pass :) epic game sale btw so I only paid the price of the base game) to see if maybe this gets expanded further.
    Hope this made sense to anyone 😅
    Edit: I had a quest to return to that subway, so poked my head in Reiner’s old room. Confirmed, Bombers are Numens who failed this ‘mystery quest’. That’s why they have their voice and switch between being horrified at what’s happened to them, or embracing this complete unknown entity.

    type 0 blood doesn’t cause immunity but rather resistance to the virus that prevents the disease from ravaging the rest of the hosts body unless they are exposed to too much mutagen like alluded to in dead island riptide by dr kessler. the autophage in dead island 2 is stronger than the virus in the first two games since sam b gets sick at the end of the game.

HK happened like 15 years prior to dead island 2 but Dr. Reed discovered this DNA issue 25 years before dead island 2 so it was known about 10 years before dead island 1. HK was activation thru a rare mutation found in a Tribe. Autophage was a scientific creation based around the HK from the tribe in dead island 1. Obviously they retconned a bit of dead island 1 and riptide to make it seem like it was something they knew ahead of time and were experimenting with to make a true cure.

    Hey, could you do a video of talking about Project Zomboid or perhaps a Why You Wouldn't Survive video on it? I love Zomboid and I'd love to hear your thoughts on the game! Keep up the good work!!!

    It makes it even more depressing knowing that every character you meet most likely will turn/die unless they’re a numen

    I know this is kinda stupid but do you think you could do a scenario? Where you have. The ability to become a Newman because I think that would be really interesting to dive into like. Would you survive? Even though it's more than likely you wouldn't but it would still give you a fighting chance.

    I need to explain this, Pathogen HK wasn’t accidentally leaked on Banoi, it was purposefully released like LAs outbreak by Reuben with the HK1 Virus, Consortium purposefully set up the events of dead island and the heros to arrive on Banoi to purposely start the infection and make it stronger/enhance it and to get their blood for a vaccine as they knew that the virus would kick start the autophage process, as seen in riptide with the mutagen and Japanese tunnels. Aswell those games are canon to dead island 2 and were covered up as explained by Sam B, Banoi outbreak was the first purposely autophage outbreak known so far second Is LA

    Wow Gaming, you should do a “Why you wouldn’t survive a Tyranid Invasion” video.

      @@momsspaghetti4504 It's possible they subconsciously thought about it. Military games have remote communication systems and headsets. Kyle Crane had a walkie talkie and headset with him in Dying Light.
      It might have been unintentional, but it's something that adds a bit more immersion.

    so if jacob or one of the other survivors were bitten by a zombie from banoi with pathogen HK, would they be immune? or would it be similar to Sam B being immune to pathogen HK but not immune to the autophage?

    • @extremegamer103
      @extremegamer103 6 месяцев назад

      The viruses were separate but if sam had a side effect to the one in dead island 2 that means the survivors in dead island two would most likely be immune but the virus that take place in dead island 2 was a more less aggressive version and would effect the mind of people and not so much infect them because if you listen carefully if you hit zombies in dead island one they still sound like humans
