why are there no games that take place in the process of society crumbling? The beginning of the last of us was a small taste, but why not a full game like that?

I want to kill people for food, loot stores, and try to escape to somewhere better while riots are going on everywhere. Why isnt this a thing?

Don't touch anything!

I wish there were games about epidemics and outbreaks. Contagion was funny.
>>
>>382987895
the division is the closest to that really, a crumbling society where you fight looters and try to survive with salvage, and the dark zone really captures that chaos of people wanting loot and wanting to kill you for your shit. its really hard to create that sense of chaos constantly it seems where theres just people running around going crazy because thats literally a single moment of chaos, if we're talking about zombies, the "outbreak" part would last maybe a day at most, after that people would just be regular ass zombies

Didn't that earthquake game do this? I remember people were desperate for bottles of water and would kill to get it. Don't remember the name.

Does it seem weird to anyone else that anyone even tries to stay alive in these scenarios? If The Last of Us happened irl I'd just kill myself right there and then

even pathetic basement dwellers have some survival instinct that would kick in during the apocalypse

Dead Rising 2 does that pretty well.

because it takes less effort to make a dead gameworld with nothing going on, devs are low effort dummies sad!

I guess that's why suicides don't exist, even in our easy-mode current world situation.

Looters are my favorited enemy in games, you literally can't empathize with them

Yeah, no. You don't know me.

This war of mine takes place during a war in a city under siege. Not exactly what you're looking for but it is a game that is happening during the bad thing, not after it.

It's not very realistic, though. Actual survivors of the siege of Sarajevo reported that people were generally nice, helpful and shared shit. You didn't go around looting old people's houses. Generally.
>>
>>382991593
A game like this but coop would be pretty interesting. Seemed shit on your own.
>>
>>382989967
Flight-or-fight instincts vary from person to person. There is surprising amount of people who do neither and just give up.
>>
>>382988793
Contagion / Zombie panic source are fun to play especially when you lock out survivors when they arrive too late to be rescued
>>
>>382991593
The city in This War Of Mine is infested with snipers that will shoot at civilians daring to leave their houses in daylight hours

The Siege of Sarajevo lasted almost 4 years and obviously wasn't as bleak as that
>>
>>382987895
this war of mine

atmosphere is 10/10 but features wise this game is lightweight and isn't worth more than 2 full playthroughs. maybe 3 if you are autistic enough

You can play that game right now, live. Get on a plane and head south quick.
