Alone In The Dark

Friendly NPCs, or the lack thereof, in horror games.

As the name implies, Walking Alone has the PCs pretty isolated. Sarah's brother (and Jim's roommate) Michael is about the only actually friendly NPC we've had, apart from the occasional other person they've rescued. Police and medical personnel are less than helpful. Their most reliable ally is a vampire, who kinda has to have his own agenda really.

So I'm wondering if I should do something about this. Then again, isolation is good for the mood.

So maybe a semi-reliable source of information, who might be psychic. Maybe one of the people they rescued from the cult, so it feels like they've earned the help.
