    It honestly amazes me the work that was put into Road 96, all the voice acting for every possible scenario, and how they have multiple options for every situation you’re put in. Add in Kevin’s chaos with the endless possibilities and it’s a recipe for success!

I hope they come out with a sequel or some sort of new content become all there is to do once you complete the game is to play again to get every other encounter you didn't in your first playthrough or to try getting a new ending.

      @@eviljesus84 That means that changing one choice counts as a different story permutation probably. Kinda like mcdonald's like 38 (forgot the actual amount) different flavours (maybe it said combinations which would be much more accurate but I don't remember) or something but actually it is like 8 and all the 'different' flavours are just changing 1 because you get two in each cup. Anyway when they did that, they literally just had coke and then the other flavours were always broken

    • @azarinevil
      @azarinevil 2 роки тому +38

      The big reason Kevin is able to do longer content is because he's taking a much more relaxed pace. To upload everyday you have to fit in your recording and editing into a very rigid schedule. Less uploads gives more time for editors to work, making long form content more cost effective and you can block shoot some content a few days a week to give yourself more days off.

    I literally finished this game myself yesterday and saw you made this video on it. I highly recommend you continue to play this game, it has a great vibe and atmosphere to it, especially with the soundtrack which I wish you could have on without copyright issues. It's a great game with some fun scenarios and a good story. It is really satisfying trying all the different ways to cross the border as well.

    Seems like everybody else I watch is making their videos shorter and shorter lately. Glad Kevin has come in clutch with all these 30+ min videos lately. Thank you Kevin

    I've almost never bought a game because I watched someone play it....and then along comes Kevin, lol. I've bought three games because of him--not a lot, I know, but they were f-ing fun. And he doesn't show you everything like some gamers. As for this game, the soundtrack is actually awesome. When he plays the game with Alex you briefly hear the best song. But yeah, this is as an awesome game, as he said.

    I like how he suddenly realised he probably wasn't talking to a boy and just silently changed pronouns like "doo do doooo... nothing happening here..."
