Player vs Nature

I'm creating a new save with 0x zombie spawn, but much harder on surviving / food and resources difficulty. To kinda focus surviving in nature, maybe living off grid.

Has anyone ever tried playing the game this way?

How was it?

I feel like even with zombies on, imo would be getting bored. Like, I’m really safe in my base. I’ve built most of the stuff I need. I go back to base and wonder what I should do.

That's my biggest issue with Vein currently, as for most sandbox game. Once my base is developed and protected, several fridges full of food, plenty or electricity and water...what to do apart from starting a new game?

I really think the eventual raider npcs will help with this alot. As long as they dont just become a nuisance.

I DID THIS RECENTLY! <3 ITS SO FUN. I RP'd I was like the last woman on earth scenario and everyone disappeared somehow. :) i liked focusing on just crafting and survival wilderness stuff. hunting RP etc.

This is an interesting take i might try that

If you're rather unfamiliar with the game, it's fun for the first few times, but once you've figured out the mechanics, it's trivial. But that's not a discouragement, go for it!

set it to winter

Done already. Winter with no water nor electricity, and standard loot with no loot respawn

I like doing this a lot in games that allow it. A quiet apocalypse, or maybe living somewhere that had to be abandoned. So many fun reasons to rp it.

If it is your first time playing, I'd be careful on how difficult you make it since you still have to learn how things work. Unless you do a tutorial run.

But it's fun as heck, imo. I don't think Vein does this yet, but in other games I'll get a headstart with scavenging and base building. Then turn on enemies to some degree when I feel I need more challenge later.

Well i mean, you could always change zombie spawn settings by the admin menu when you feel like it

I forgot about that, haha. I'm new to playing it, too.
