New Project Zomboid mod makes whole game harder by adding smarter, tougher NPCs

Project Zomboid NPCs are eventually coming back - The Indie Stone has confirmed as much. But until build 43 gets here, Knox Country remains desolate. To some extent, the presence of other living people could be comforting. In Dying Light and State of Decay 2, seeing survivors provides a sense of comfort, a reminder that you're not totally alone - there are moments in PZ, those stormy, mid-winter nights on the road between Muldraugh and Louisville, where I'd welcome company. On the contrary, we saw what happened to Kate and Bob, and the chaos wrought by 'Slayer's' superlative 'Week One.' If, however, you want NPCs in your game, specifically smart, violent, and relentless bandits, you're in luck. Slayer is back with another great Project Zomboid mod.
