Humanity mechanic

Recommended Posts

This probably got lost in the other thread, so reposting here.

So if...

Everyone surviving has within them the potential to be/retain thier humanity...or surrender thier humanity and become something...else. Like you know...a frigging zombie

So...as you lose humanity...there's an actual penalty for being a rat bastard. You slowly lose effectiveness as a survivor because you can't eat/drink as well...you get the shakes and your aim is harder. It becomes harder to see and hear. You progress from a functional survivor to being one of the zombies. With the abilities and limitations of same.

It takes will to be human in the zombie apocalypse. Cuz zombie is a disease, and it's catching. Do bad things and lose humanity. Do good things and regain humanity...just the way it works now.

I'm *positive* the rat bastards out there will hate this idea. But it sure seems like the natural way to make killing others have consequences. It's not a new idea. But it's new here. And it's one that fits.

Similar isn't the same. His just made you ineffective. I'm talking...you become a zombie. Then you can go form your roaming band of bandi...errr..zombies...and kill to your heart's content.
