The characters who are ex - military are often popular in fanfiction. They bring discipline and combat skills to the community. Their backstories of military training and how they use those skills in the post - apocalyptic world are often explored in great detail, such as how they set up defenses and train other survivors.
Sure, State of Decay 2 features a story. It involves survival, community-building, and facing various challenges in a post-apocalyptic world. The story elements add depth and purpose to the gameplay.
In State of Decay, the story is centered around a group of people trying to survive in a world gone to ruin. They have to deal with limited supplies, dangerous enemies, and the constant threat of zombie attacks. The game's story progresses based on the choices and actions of the player.
In a crossover with 'The Last of Us', Joel and Ellie would be great additions. Joel's survival skills and Ellie's immunity could bring new dynamics to the State of Decay world. Also, from 'Left 4 Dead', the four survivors like Bill, Francis, Zoey, and Louis could be included. Their combat skills against zombies could be interesting when combined with the State of Decay gameplay.
One interesting storyline could be about a group of survivors who find an abandoned military base. They discover new weapons and resources there, which changes the power dynamic within their community. This could lead to both internal conflicts as some members become power - hungry, and external ones as other groups try to take over the base.
The unique settings in 'State of Decay' also offer great potential for fanfiction. Writers can create stories set in different parts of the game's world, like the abandoned suburbs or the fortified enclaves. They can describe in detail how survivors interact with these environments, whether it's scavenging for resources or defending against the undead hordes.
Well, it could be that some key relationships between characters weren't fully fleshed out or there were potential story arcs that were just touched upon and then left hanging. Maybe even some locations or events that were mentioned but not elaborated on are what's left behind.
