I would recommend doing a manual save at the end of each day before you head to the post station.
In case you need to repeat something.

To unlock the third ending, a decision on day 11 is important.
More about this at the Free Spirit achievement.

Higher Ground
Miss-able achievement

To get the achievement, you just have to visit the church.

For some reasons, the achievement can only be unlocked until the evening of day 6.

You'll find the church here:

I'm in the same boat as nemarosa, first playthrough, romanced Angie, Lori gave the RV to Angie and I went on a road trip with her.

Church fixed. Works anytime now.

On the the Free Spirit achievement, you can give the RV to Lori and still get the ending with Angie. Lori ends up giving the RV to Angie, explaining she can't use it because she has it fixed up and is too young for a driver's license. I just got it finishing my first playthrough.

If you're like me who can't say no in the game because I wanna see everything that happens,

Workaholic achievement is still obtainable when you go to the movie with Angie on the 8th and with Robert to Jack's studio on the next day. When Steve called the night before, you need to tell him you'll look at it later.
Karrich 9 Jun, 2024 @ 12:22pm 
Hate how the movie one you said yes so many times then they sneak in a “no” right where the yes dialogue options were
Dayashi 16 Jan, 2024 @ 10:43am 
For Workaholic: You can still get this if you watch the movie with Angie if you tell Robert you're busy on the next day. You'll get a chance to review the contracts after Steve contacts you, and that also unlocks it!
