    In fairness, when is the last time youve taken a shit in a post apocalyptic videogame? Although I still think its cool if things like this are considered.

      Keep in mind that pretty much ever post apocalyps character would have horrible diarrhea.

      Just imagine every sneaking mission in Last of Us, Joel trying his best not to unleash a dirty bomb. Or the courier confronting Lanius atop Hoover Dam, chocolate water running down both their legs.

      In SCUM you definitely have to crap and pee regularly and absolutely can get diarrhoea.

      I died more than once from untimely diarrhoea.

      Fuck. They need to do this. Bladder meter . When it gets full you start losing health. But you have to let your guard down to shit or piss and it takes at least 30s.

          Survivor games were dubbed “babysitting bars simulators” at one point when hunger, thirst, sleep and all other sorts of survivor meters were being added to all games because reasons. Unless they have some interesting ludo narrative dynamic they get annoying almost immediately. There’s a reason they don’t show up in recent games as often anymore.

            Sort of reminds me of when they added laying water pipes and adding pumping stations and water towers to SimCity 2000. It was just an added grind which made it less fun.
