fun story but oh god did the save point system ruin it for me. When presented with a multiple ending story, I start with one main "entrance" and then find the endings from there before moving on to another "entrance". So starting off in Roma then ignoring hitchhikers but still taking a right, then playing the game normally. Then I would start in Roma again but go forward and ignore hitchhikers and then continue playing normally etc... this is fine until you get to Bracchio. It opens up with a race that isn't avoidable and the only impact on the story is if you lose, you win, or take a left when given a chance. There aren't any hitchhikers on the way because it's a race. So having to constantly repeat this section despite just wanting to get to the end of it is such a hassle. It gets worse when you've ran through every single one of the dialogue options. I do understand the game is wanting you to complete the race so it can decide what route to put you on but it doesn't make it better. It's even worse when I meant to skip the farmer hitchhiker but ended up slowing down too soon, making me pick him up(the ending involved Padre and having the farmer involved screwed me over) . That completely ruined me getting an ending I wanted so I had to REDO a race around 10 minutes before the gameplay I needed to actually focused on started. Me winning or losing that race was inconsequential, only impact it could have on me going on the Padre's route would've been taking that left.
The only other flaw I found is that dialogue options would sometimes appear out of order or without context. The worst was I got an ending talking about kidnappers or something and I was incredibly confused because not once was kidnapping mentioned. Also characters and events would cut each other off, so I think the roads need to be longer- I had to do donuts at some parts to get the full conversation so that I could then trigger the ending.
TL;DR Idk why the developers just didn't add a save at Sienna or have me choose when to have saves ;;;; and dialogue glitches go brrrrr
