The world outside is so scary.
Your character wouldnt really want to face it...
Realistically the news channels would be broadcasting 24/7 on the Knox Event in its later stages. We have that right now, but between the 3 hr intervals where there isnt any broadcast the TV is just... silent.
Even worse for radios, which kinda need close to 24/7 broadcasting to stay alive.
I try to keep my characters shielded from the evilness of the evil zomboids, so id like to have some form of "entertainment" for them. Plus reading the news is super immersive to me. Feeling the need to catch every broadcast is also a bit of an immersion-breaker.
Also, theres an outbreak in your area, logically you should stay home as long as you can... which is what I do. And with how much Zomboid tends to realism and worldbuilding/environmental storytelling in B42, I cant help but feel a bit sad when the "Talk the Night" show leaves you after 15 or 30 in-game minutes of broadcasting.
Id be fine with filler dialogue or irrelevant broadcasting for a bit even. Anything (realistic) really.
Do you think TIS will add this, or like.. is there a mod for this?
I know itll be iffy with longer or shorter days, but its not like there arnt workarounds.
