discussion Which apocalyptic concept do you all like most?

In fiction Zombie. IRL none. as for the nuclear drills we did those in the 1980s. Yeah i'm sure an old basement annex and ducking and covering under a desk will save you in the event of a nuke going off. hide under the desk and burn as a classmate of mine used to say, he also used smiliey face and said have a nice day. the absurdity of it.

They also conned us into thinking Star Wars was real and could shoot down Russian InterContinental ballistic missiles aka nukes with a space laser. I kid you not.

The good old Reagan days.

Maybe I'm just a cliché fan, but zombie apocalypses are my favorite. They're like the perfect backdrop for any theme you want to explore—whether it's drama, survival, history, action-packed scenes, etc.

And they don’t even have to be zombies—you can use whatever you want, as long as they’re aggressive and dangerous to the survivors. Infected people, mutants, monsters, creatures—whatever comes to mind.

well it is the concept most people are introduced to apocalyptic scenarios with, be it night of the living dead for the boomers distinguished gentlemens or zombieland, 28 days later, shaun of the dead, or any more post 2k zombie movies for the newgen cool guys.

But yes, it is understandable that most people like the zombie scenario, me and probably a ton more people fantasized an action zombie scenario at some point in our childhood lol

It's all the fun of shooting at something without the guilt of taking a life.

Mad Max Style with a few settlements here and there

I miss Mad Max they haven't made one since Beyond Thunderdome. The director instead made these feminist spinoffs. The Furiosa movies should never have been called Mad Max. But it's how they were sold.

I like the Highschool of the Dead Manga and Anime. The Mangaka dying caused an infinite hiatus.

I used to like Resident Evil games before all the remakes and censorship.

Man Mad Max was so good, have you ever played the game? So underrated. I never see anyone talking about it, espacially for how great it was.

Oh, I've heard about one made in 2015. But Back in the Xbox One days. I've never actually played it. Also on the PS4 and PC? Can you still even play it. Online search says yes but online features retired in 2020.
