I was thinking there should be an occurrence in Protect Zomboid that canonically make the game reach at least 7 years all the way into the 21st century! Like challenge maps, settings in sandbox (occupation availability, when to start, etc.), characters keeping track of the date with NPCs, etc.. I mean theoretically it can get to the 21st century in a way just by player playthrough time but that doesn't feel real/legitimate/canon. I'm thinking you'd see a ton of decay and erosion as well as dwindling supplies like fresh food big time. You may come across a lot of events where past battles happened with corpses, supplies guns and ammo for you to loot! Also the gas is probably all bad so forget about using a gas station even with a generator. Syphoning cars would also be out of the question so you'd probably have to rely on bicycles and other human powered stuff to get around. It'd be really cool to move into the 21st century rather than being stuck in 1993.
