    I preferred not hitchhiking for most of the game, since it let me get more interactions and there are a few cool places you can see while walking. I really appreciated the game world a lot more after taking it more slowly, it meant my character had way more relations with the characters than if I’d skipped out by hitchhiking or stealing a car.

    sorry if someone already pointed it out but when you're going over the lore at about 4 minutes into the video, those two are actually Sonya's brothers, you only really get to know this if you do their side missions and prevent Sonya's murder at the end, kind of an obscure detail, love the video though!

But I actually hated every time Zoe popped up on the screen like ur complaining about being ultra-rich and still choose the struggle??? Then again, I swear all the Zoe cut scene bits made me feel so UNimmersed, like out of all the pathways and choices I took, I was still stuck watching a life is strangle bootleg Chloe (>_>)

      @shinymonocle Год назад +2

      im pretty sure it is technically possible. both of the places you get by already having done all interactions with walking will give you 2 energy, which is enough to infinitely walk. not sure if this actually works, since maybe itll remove the energy sources, forcing you to hitchhike/call a bus/call a taxi. i have never tried this before, since it will take wayyy to long for me. so yeah, technically, possible. but maybe it will force you to do something else than walking

    I'm curious about something...
    So every character encounters are random and come in random order, except for Zoe, which are in a set order, and end up in one of the teenagers reaching the border with her (it's where you have a choice to save her). However, one of the encounters happen during hitchhiking (the one with connect 4).
    So if you beat the game without hitchhiking does that mean that the final encounter will never happen? And if yes, will Zoe appear in the final cutscene with shooting the teenagers?

    I enjoyed road 96 so much, i dont know about other people, but me and my friend loved playing through this game over a discord call and the choices all feel pretty impactfull on the story of the game.

    Can't believe this channel only has 1.4k subs, I legitimately thought it had atleast 100k when I watched the vid

    I did it only walking, I ended up meeting every single npc every single journey, and just bussed whenever I couldn't walk. I ended up leaving $40-80 under the rock almost every time just because i would visit so many places
