Where are children corpes, infected?

I mean there are none. What happened to kid population. Kids exist in l4d universe. We got kids room at Farmhouse, we got Kiddieland, NIck suggests to repopulate world, playground in Hard rain.

Because the media's filled with a bunch of SJW ♥♥♥♥♥♥ who've achieved nary a thing in their miserable middle aged lives save for breaking down those who have. That, and you have normies complaining about children having any sort of damage dealt to them, saying it's immoral and shouldn't be allowed, despite it being a video game. Similar to people who say rape is bad when they refer to anime, because anime is totally real and unacceptable, right?

That, or Valve just didn't see the necessity to add children's corpses or zombie models for the sake of realism because it was always a quirky one-line spamming shooter with flimsy characters, rather than something like TWD who focuses entirely on realism.

That would annoying af, can you imagine being surrounded by fast-moving small zombies, hindering your movement, combined with horrible hitreg issue of l4d2 and server lag condition, that experience would be abysmal.

Doesn't the game already have that basically with the mudman zombie?

At this day and age, this is still very strange and confusing. No wonders the industry has gone downhill. Children would complement the game's atmosphere and will surely make it a lot more realistic. They should have added midgets at least. Parents going to the carnival full of kids' attractions and don't bring children with them? That's definitely strange and unrealistic. Children would be there. They would be there. There would definitely be a lot of children. A lot of targets. It'd be great and it needs to be added into the game. They have to.

Realistically they're probably sadly all torn apart / dead b/c in the l4d comics and in-game the zombies don't bite you b/c they're not zombies but infected. They just wanna infect people and since most of the world is already infected they probably only go for tearing you limb from limb. Doesn't make sense why special infected are so gun ho about tearing you apart. Any few that did become special infected can't really tell.

My headcannon is

They all became special infected.

The virus that made people into infected was more prevelant in kids. Like in dead space or dead frontier. In a way makes sense. Kids are like blank canvases. They're still young underdeveloped and have some stem cells vs adults. Their immune systems sadly also aren't there yet so babies go first then kids and adults or teens somehow survive long enough for the virus to turn them. Basically the virus made them / forced them to grow up to mutate.

It's why most common infected are just every day boring monotonous 9-5 or 6 to 6 depending where you live adults with jobs. You only have very very rare exceptions like jimmy gibs jr. and the mudmen as well as clowns. Also special infected need extreme conditions like overweight people, athletic people, cigar smokers, disabled people, people with indigestion and a rash, and roided up body builders / lifters. So having blank canvas children would be fitting to mutate them into whatever the viruses wanted them to be.

Maybe also witches. They all wonder about aimlessly crying all the time. Sulking and for the most part seem smaller compared to others even survivors. They even sound like kids. They hate loud noises and light sources being cooped up too long indoors by their parents until they turned and either:
-escaped and eventually were turned too
-turned before their parents and killed them.

If anything they're all mostly teen witches or below. If they had a male version then it'd be a more cemented theory.

side theory is they all died b/c the virus was too much for adults you see infected in the streets puking and sleepless. Kids for the most part wouldn't survive 2 weeks on their body being underdeveloped. So most of them just died form lack of sleep and nutrients.

really makes you think overall how adults survive if they don't eat people. Is this like a 28 days / 28 weeks later thing? Where eventually the zombies will starve themselves erm in this case infected. Same ♥♥♥♥ whatever you get the idea. Maybe their brains lack nutrients will die off then you'll just be left with husks of bodies. A plane without a pilot or engine.

Events in l4d1 and l4d2 are intertwined with bill dying in the sacrifice and shortly after a bit l4d2 survivors come then l4d1 survivors leave on a boat towards a deserted island on a boat in the comics. So high chance there are still other survivors out there (well you find clones after one of your party dies lol) still human and still not infected or turned or slowly turning like the guy in the church.

Most of the events happen within around no more than 1 month since l4d1 intro happens 2 weeks after 1st infection case. Then you still got people still alive that help you evacuate. The comics start after the farmhouse rescue in the armored military vehicle.

All things considered seems each campaign is at most 1-5 days if you count the saferoom waiting for either day or nightfall to change or immediately then about at most 1 day from day to night in l4d2. There are about what 12 campaigns total and some shared? So it's about....yeah 1 month or so since the survivors first meet in l4d1 and l4d2 in the parish after bill dies. Then they go for the boat to the island.

Yeah, most likely they're all simply torn apart, eaten and are simply not there anymore. Perhaps their weak organism hasn't survived the infection or then again, maybe they've been torn apart and eaten instead. Even if they did become infected, they've probably ended up being a food for tank who ripped them apart and they were, once again, eaten. Tank loves eating small babies apparently and keeps them in his dark cave where he loves eating them again and again. Yeah. Witches also love their babies a lot. A lot.

There aren´t zombie children because of the following reasons

-Avoid headache of people,especially game jornalists,crying about shooting children
-The source engine limitations (Imagine having to make all the work to)
-The 1 year gap of development to L4D2 (Basically rushed)
-Attempting to intregrate children to the gameplay would´ve been hell,imagine how broken would it be to have 20 zombiefed childrens attacking you while fighting a tank?

Because people are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, and pixels on a screen scares the ♥♥♥♥ out of them, so they're going to cry louder than the kids ingame being shot.
