In a recent interview with Game Trailers, Valveâ??s Chet Faliszek revealed that The Passingâ??s newly-announced tag line, â??Nobody Survives Forever,â? refers to the fact that one of the four characters from the original Left 4 Dead dies just prior to the beginning of the DLC. The three remaining survivors will team up with the Left 4 Dead 2 cast as non-playable allies.
According to Faliszek, the unnamed hero's death is all about self-sacrifice, which will be detailed in the unnamed DLC announced for the original Left 4 Dead. In that DLC pack, gamers will play through the fateful events themselves, and one player will be forced to die for the survival of the team. An upcoming comic book will detail the â??idealizedâ? version of events that The Passing will follow.
Sacrificing your life for the survival of your teammates? That sounds like every match Iâ??ve ever played with my brother -- at least maybe this time Iâ??ll get an achievement for it. If the choice was up to you, which one of the original cast members would you sacrifice?
