Trojan_Turps Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Is the dark scary? If not then it should be.Night time is already more dangerous because the undead move around more and you can't see as much. Although I think that it should also be more dangerous because of the dark, or more precisely the affect it has on the players character.The dark could increase anxiety and panic levels. Simply making the character panic more.Zombies rely heavily on the element of surprise. In the dark its easier for them to creep up on you. Also the less you can see the more your brain fills in the gaps. (in a zombie apocalypse it's probably filling those gaps with you certain doom) So it makes sense to me that you would panic more.Could also add the trait 'Scared of the dark' that increases the fear and random panicking in the dark.

Jericoshost Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Could also have a trait: Scared Of The Dark, When the player is in dark conditions they begin to suffer anxiety, and panic? Would be debilitating after the power is out and would attract z's to the players needed 'Night Light' Crossbow7734 and Kuren 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe even have trouble sleeping if not very tired. Trojan_Turps and Crossbow7734 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Fisher Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I'm only awake at night, both in-game and out, so no thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorak Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I like the idea. The nights could be also a bit darker so flashlights gets more important. Crossbow7734 and Trojan_Turps 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
