Writing ideas for others

[Mikenigel007]

I'm assuming that your albe to read and saw the title. I'd just like to say that I'm a TERRIBLE writer, I just barely passed literature in high school but I do like to think that I can give ideas to others that DON'T stuck at writing. I'll be explaining the ideas below.

Apocalyptic game livestream
Specifically USA isot scenario
It was Earth all along

Thanks to whoever moved this to the cw index, I'm still very new here, didn't even know that this index existed, until now of course.

We all know post Apocalyptic games. Wasteland, fallout, metro and more. An apocalypse years ago has destroyed the world, how boring. Here's an idea, a game that takes place DURING the apocalypse, the power and water are still working, first responders like police and paramedics are still alive and trying to help, the military hasn't gone AWOL and so on.

Notable examples are
Into the dead: our darkest days
Dead rising 1 (2-4 don't count as zombies are a daily fact of life in those)
State of decay 1
The Dead island series but especially dead island 2, set in los Angeles
The final station

I'm sure that there's many more examples but these are the ones that I remember off the top of my head.

And as stated in the first thread mark, a livestream of one of these games to an alternate world, like streaming into the void or a pokestreamer's nightmare.

Pretty self explanatory if you know what an isot scenario is but there two variations of it. 1: The United states of America itself or only people from the United states find themselves in a isot scenario, such as 2019 America getting isot to 1941.
2: an isot scenario set specifically within the maritime and land borders of the United states, you can isot soviet Moscow if you want but it MUST be somewhere within American borders.

we all know the scene from planet of the apes, right? The protagonist discovers the statue of liberty and realizes that the 'alien' planet that he's on is actually earth thousands of years into the future. That's pretty much all there is to this one, protagonist ends up somewhere unrecognizable but later discovers proof, be it a land mark like the white house or something else that proves that it's earth.

The final station actually falls under this, as one of the newspaper clippings that you can read declares that its the 134th anniversary of Arkady Strugatsky's birthday.

Road of the Dead and its sequel do this. Not sure about Project Zomboid, but the in-game radio states the zombie apocalypse is happening throughout the game before the broadcasters get eaten by the zombies.

I've seen a fic like this one, three astronauts crash land on a post apocalyptic planet and it's just earth after a few thousand years.
