I have mixed feelings about Road 96

The subject is important af, I like the characters, seeing your actions take form, etc., but I feel like It's missing something. Don't get me wrong, this game gave me goosebumps, and the end is great, but man...

The soundtrack could be better and I had some performance issues, like crashing and the game not loading a far away stone that you can see clearly. About the music... listening to some songs, I felt like I was in a hair spray commercial, not a teenager hitchhiker escaping a fascist dictatorship. I'm not kidding, sometimes I was having a serious conversation in-game and the song made no sense. Also, the dubbing could be better and honestly, everything could take a little more work on it, I'd give this game a 9 if they fixed a bunch of things.

There's another thing that bothers me: steam have this "adaptate the price to the reality of each country you're selling to". The publisher didn't do it, the game converting the dollar to the currency I use is quite expensive, and that's at least ironic...

I'd prefer to get the money and buy 2 other excellent games that adapted the price. If you're in Brazil, like me, wait for discount or game pass.
