DayZ - Journals of the Dead (Blog & Vlog & more)

[Suriel 0]

What is Journals of the Dead all about?

Well, you can go see for yourself: http://journalsofthe....wordpress.com/

Basically I got bored just playing one nameless person after the other. And I strongly believe that DayZ is a mod that is more than just mindless PVP. I posted some further info on Reddit, but the basic stuff I put on the blog should do.

There are currently 2 YT vids on my channel linked to above blog. If you're too lazy to read you'll miss them. Just a warning... If you enjoy, enjoy. If you hate, feel free to hate... - Suriel

I. THE CHERNARUS ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE COVERAGE: The Journals of the Dead

Most of the world’s civil, corporate & military satelites were focused on Chernarus during the DayZ, better known to the rest of the world as the first outbreak of a major Zombie Apocalypse.

While there was no time to focus on any individual survivor’s fate amongst the walking dead while the crisis lasted, many a death was captured live cam. And many of the survivors kept journals while they lasted. Those who made it say, it was one way to deal with the extreme feeling of isolation, a way to keep their sanity in the midst of Hell on Earth.

Several Media Stations competed for the rights on the gathered satelite data and began the giant puzzle, piecing together information from hundreds of different sources, including interviews with officials and those who escaped, satelite materials, journals…

What you are watching here is the success of this mission. May those who died in Chernarus never be forgotten – and may they never rise again.

II. THE REAL WORLD BACKGROUND

I’ll create a random name using Fakenamegenerator.com.

This will be the “official” name of my DayZ character until he dies of course.

I’ll post a journal and perhaps some vids & pics for the character after each session.

Each journal will begin with a summary of what the character was before the zombie apocalypse.

And each journal will end with a quick surmise of his ultimate demise. Then I’ll pick a new name.

Memorable moments will likely be captured in a YouTube video on my channel.

Simple as that. Time to head out…

"Journals of the Dead" - after a week - has turned into something I really enjoy to create.

YouTube, Blog & some Poser & GIMP combined, this is NOT the right place for people who like:

- "Look how smart we were when we killed this guy" vids

We are usually not smart. ;)

- It is not the right format for people who like 50 sec vids.

We are long-winded and dull.

You will like it if you like soap-style documentation, in-depth characters (for a soapie), Zombies, long stories to read enjoying your morning coffee, fictional ads, hilarious tactical analysis and more...

Blog (with all the info & vids):
