    Braaaaaains Did you ever use the Car?

    One of the only forms of transportation in this game no one mentions, did anyone ever use the rental car beyond the one time the game made you use it?

    i liked running out of gas and leaving that trout in the wilderness and sort of avoiding the car rental place when i run back through to town just in case

    I never bothered with it. The idea was neat, but I walked fast enough and was more interested in carding everything I saw.

    I rented cars and attempted to drive perfectly straight on the road which I always failed at.

    I did this when the game actually gave you a car for that one time.

    The rest of the time? Nope, I walked. You can already avoid encounters by using roads and Enc-Half/Enc-None, and you don't get charged for it. Fuel is used for Fire Ammo, nothing else.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    I drove it around a bit, ran out of gas, stared at my TV a bit, and vowed never to drive again.

    Never. Big waste of money. I'd rather walk everywhere.

    I wish I had the same attitude IRL.

    Considering that collecting magic and leveling is always a good idea, using a car just seems like a set-back. Maybe if you got in LESS fights on it but still had fights?

    During my current playthrough, I only used the car when I had to. It's better to just hoof it.

    Yes. More so during my earlier playthroughs when I had the gils because I enjoyed it and didn't like the random battles. Nowadays I just use the car for the same reason Neptunia does.
