I do think though tom that the major fact will be later on when you
have a few members.
Stratogys for example who you take on what mission, etc.
who you leave etc.
I have managed to proceed quite far but once yhou have weapons it
gets harder as the enemy gets those to, factories have electric barriors to.
The game is a good stress releaver.
I do agree with the party thing, there should be some other scenarios
for the starting character.
Ie, why you would willingly just go to a party to kill 10 people is beyond me.
I'd like some other scenarios to start off your char.
And that sort of thing.

Hello Jeremy,
You aren't alone. I do agree with a lot of what you had to say below,
and it is a major reason why I in all likelihood won't be buying the
game.
Yes, while the sounds, voice acting, etc are all fine as it is I just
found the senseless violence, murder, and mayhem not to my liking.
While fighting and killing in a combat situation usually doesn't
bother me I found the idea of just walking into a party and killing 10
people for no reason sick and immoral. Same goes with the farm
mission. I love animals, and the sound of killing goats for no reason
really bothered me. Bothered me so much I uninstalled the game shortly
there after because I just couldn't play the game after that.
That is not to say I think the game is a bad game. I just personally
dislike the degree of violence and senseless killing involved in the
game. It bothered me in away few games do. It is one thing to be
killing zombies in a game like Swamp since they aren't real people or
can justifiably be called monsters. It is a total and morally
different issue to walk into a party, mall, jail, or somewhere and
just start killing people at random for little reason.
Cheers!
