Giant Project Zomboid build 42 update makes zombies less scary and hints at NPCs

Whether it’s State of Decay, Fallout, or DayZ, in post-apocalyptic survival games the biggest threat isn’t zombies or monsters or mutants - it’s other people. Until now, the existence of fellow survivors has only been hinted at in Project Zomboid, but given the success of mods like Week One, and the erstwhile prologue starring Bob and Kate Smith, it seems inevitable that NPCs will eventually return. Now, a big update to Project Zomboid build 42 perhaps lays the groundwork for that future, while also offering you a helping hand when it comes to dealing with Knox Country’s undead.
