Or more interestingly, you find the line and intercept their distress call, impersonate law enforcement and tell them you have a deputy just outside their door to rescue them, they just need to open up. Then your reward, when they finally let you in, will be a most gruesome and grisly murder as your victim screams and begs for his/her life. lol. That's a much better reward than a medicinal herb or some ammo for your revolver or whatever you'd get as the hunted in normal survival horror. Then you could use their limbs and innards (which you'd now have as items in your inventory) to try to scare your next victim into surrendering (but of course, you never accept surrenders, always hacking and slicing instead). :nod:
This is just some random stream of conciousness stuff I thought of in a couple minutes. I have faith the designers can come up with all sorts of entertaining ideas. Especially if they decide to really go off the deep-end and make the player uncomfortable and sick to his stomach with just how brutal and ruthless he's becoming. There's a lot of potential here. Of course, it could all turn to crap as we all know. I'm hoping for the best though.
