I’m not a beach sign expert. I mean, I’m not a beach sign expert, either. But I do know that there are signs that can be placed at the beach that offer good information about the beach. These signs should be placed in public places like ocean parks, beaches, and golf courses where people can see them and actually look at them to find out what you’re talking about.
So you can be looking at a beach sign and not actually looking at the beach itself, because you’re distracted by something else? That’s a big problem. It’s one thing to use a sign to tell people how to get to a certain place, but it’s completely different when someone else is using this same sign to tell them to go there and when they’re looking at the sign, they don’t see the beach itself.
Here’s the thing though… many of the signs on these beaches don’t actually say anything. Most of them just have a picture of some beach, a few words, and a simple, “beach”. But this is really important to remember because its not just the beach itself we’re looking at but actually the signs. Our goal in Deathloop is to find the eight Visionaries by killing eight of their closest friends.
The number of Visionaries on Deathloop is very, very large. The number of these are around 10 million! The number of these is the number of times a Visionary has passed through the door.
The problem is, the number of these is so small that we can’t even get around to killing them. But I can’t imagine anyone would’ve been so worried about how many people they wanted to kill if we just killed them all.
It’s true that we never kill anyone in Deathloop. But we are not really in the game for just killing random people. We’re in it for the quest. We’re not just killing Visionaries, we’re killing people who keep trying to kill Visionaries. We are killing them because they are trying to kill Visionaries.
What better way to honor the dead than with an undead beach sign.
Deathloop is still a zombie game, so to get to the first level of the game, you have to kill five or six zombies. But the game starts off slow and has you doing all sorts of things to get to the next level. You can climb the hill, kill the zombies, pick up a few weapons, and then kill more zombies in the next level. And in the next level you can take out Visionaries who still have guns pointed at them.
It’s not exactly clear how you kill Visionaries. The game plays a bit like a platformer, so you don’t get much in the way of challenge. But you can see it’s an action game, so it’s pretty easy to take out those Visionaries.
While it may sound like a bad idea to go out and run around killing zombies, it’s not totally impossible to do so. A level called Bloodbrawl features an obstacle course. After the level you can climb the hill, kill the zombies, pick up a few weapons, and then kill more zombies in the next level. Its a nice little challenge and you can see why this game is so popular.
