So who died in Left 4 Dead 2? None other than William Overbeck, that wily old, pill-popping veteran that was difficult to love, but impossible to hate. Yes, Bill won’t be fighting zombies with Zoey, Louis and Francis anymore. Instead he’s solemnly sitting in a pool of his own blood, his gun still in his cold hands. How did Bill die? It’s never explained in The Passing. In fact, Bill’s name isn’t even mentioned by any of the characters throughout the DLC. Oddly enough, Bill’s old companions seem completely cheerful, even jovial without their fourth musketeer.
It’s safe to assume we’ll find out the truth in the upcoming DLC for the original Left 4 Dead, the second portion of The Passing.We’ll hopefully see more information on that soon, but expect it to be released sometime in the coming months.
In tribute to a fallen hero, I found a crappy Youtube video that, at least, has some pictures of Bill’s final resting spot, along with some mood music. Please feel free to leave a prayer, or your thoughts in the comments below. Heck, you can even tell us about how it should have been Francis, because it should have been Francis.
