That's not a typo. In the world of TLoU, "panalty of death" means that you're beaten to death with a frying pan. It's the apocalypse. They have to get creative.

the Shipyard SZ looks very lackluster, hopefully they add more

I agree, i think the creatures or whatever that are in there could make or break that zone, I’m curious what they’ll be like, but it definitely feels generic so far and not a fan of it visually. Because of that it’s definitely bottom of my list for hype now.

Generic props will likely be made up by the throwback creatures. I think they kept the props generic so you wouldn’t associate the set pieces to any of the creatures present, only that they were freed from the crates.
It gives them more flexibility on what or who they decide to throw in the zone.

I'm interested to see what we may see in that zone.
Side note - all of the food booths are looking phenomenal.

I don’t know I’m liking the way Shipyard is looking so far. I think it looks great and appropriate given the theme of the zone. Not sure what y’all expect out of a shipyard.
Jungle of Doom is my most anticipated cause that looks amazing.
Dark Zodiac still looking… meh so far. Need to see more before it gets above last place in my hype list.

Honestly, I was expecting a set piece invoking the prow of a ship. At the moment, between the boxes and pre-existing monsters, this has a last-minute-replacement feel (though it apparently isn’t).
And while props don’t make a scarezone on their own, they’re at least 50% of what does.
Yeah, for me Shipyard looks fairly accurate to what a shipyard is. We've got a crane, we've got a whole bunch of crates, boxes and cages, that's par for the course here! Ultimately, the shipyard isn't the focus here, it's various creatures that have escaped onto said shipyard.
And need we be reminded that San Fran is a zone that chokes up incredibly easy when there's too many big set pieces. What they have out now is fine for what they're going for.

A ship prop would make it too similar to Dead Man’s Wharf from 26.

No but they are 50% of the what does.
Whoops, accidentally double posted. Sorry, Brian.
With how congested the area is - I think they got to manage how much stuff they put in.

I wish they extended it towards sting alley like in 2018 with Killer Klownz. Except now we have a food booth there.

The shipyard feels like a bit of a shrug of a zone, but I'll defer judgment until I see what types of creatures are included/the tone and energy of the cast. I really dug what they did in this spot last year, so that's kinda the bar for me, personally.

Similarity to Dead Man's Wharf is never a bad thing, especially since the tone will presumably be entirely different.
SF is not an ideal zone location, but its had some great ones - Wharf, Die-In, and Rob Zombie were all excellent. It has a lot more versatility and a better track record then Central Park, so its a shame to see it wasted. We also just did a best-of-creatures house last year and a similar zone in Hollywood for 30, so this seems particularly low effort.
