Undead Labs rude Q&A
A: We’re creating a zombie MMO because we love zombies! I know zombies are “hot” right now, with tons of mainstream (and mostly well done) books and movies coming out over the last year or so, but nobody has really captured the essence of the post-apocalyptic zombie universe in a game. It’s going to take a full MMO to really do that.
Zombies are fun because they give us an excuse to break all the rules, without guilt. I’m not just talking about over-the-top violence — we’ve got aliens, terrorists, and robots to fulfill those needs — but instead the suspension of rules across the board. Here you are in a huge, rich world as it existed at the height of society, and it’s yours now. Everything. You can do what you want, go where you want, and take what you want. In fact, you have to, if you are going to survive.
