My Initial Thoughts on B42

[Oc]

I decided to start a run in B42, I've been playing for a few hours now. These are my thoughts on it as someone who has a few thousand hours in the game between Steam and GOG.

I'm basing all of this off of 100% vanilla Apocalypse mode as the devs intended.
Right off the bat, I'm liking it a lot. The muscle fatigue I actually enjoy because I know I can't just go out and kill 300 zombies in the first day and have my whole block clear of zombies.

The crafting, from the little I've done and all the items I have checked out like metal gloves, sheet sling bag, newspaper armour etc is amazing and I'm actually impressed with it.

Player noises is a great addition and it really makes it more immersive, the same can be said for animals like rabbits or rats running around.

The Echo Creek location from what I've seen has been amazing and I'm really enjoying it a lot. Basements are awesome and the lighting might be my favourite part for the whole update.

So far the only thing I dislike about the update are the moodles, but I'd rather give myself a week or two of playing so I can get used to them before I critically judge them. I personally like the look of the mod that changes the new moodles to pixel art (linked below) although I haven't tried this mod, I think something like that would be a good middle ground for them.

All in all I just wanted to let the devs know I appreciate b42 and I like 99.5% of it (from what I've seen).
