only 30 passengers? I was able to get my counter up to 39
AlphaDelta98 (talk):
still wondering why they're not in the cutscene. the plane doesnt have enough chairs for all of them
something very wrong
I actually found over 75 and I've only searched one little bit of the cave, and I haven't jumped up to add all of them to the counter. So I'm sure there is 130 something passengers as the counter says!

What is the purpose of counting the passengers? There is an actual counter in the game which makes it seem important. Have the developers mentioned this? Is it because our character is looking for the child?
Brantmeierz (talk) 23:13, 2 November 2014 (UTC) I think it's just added as an extra challenge or thing to do, no purpose really. @AlphaDelta it's probably just because it would take a long time to model, texture, and animate all the people, and they haven't gotten to it yet.
Further information[]
Since the merge with twitch I cannot log in anymore, so I guess I have to submit edit suggestions like this... :-s
First of all, I would correct HIGASHI M's seat in the first table (row 26): it's 10E not 10D, as it can be seen both in images and in the transcript.
Further, I would add to the trivia section these bits:
- The original seating arrangement had 45 passengers in 12 rows of 4 letters each, with unassigned seats at 5A, 5C, and 6B. There had been some planning into it, as can be seen by the four presumably-related pairs being seated next to each other: BELLs on 12A and 12B, LEBLANCs on 6C and 6D, HAMILTONs at 7A and 7B, and HIGASHIs at 9A and 9B. This was later changed to only 11 rows, redistributing the seats seemingly at random (separating all the pairs mentioned above except for the LEBLANCs), using a 5th letter (E) for two of them, and not assigning 10D.
- The updated manifest had a typo, listing both BARCLAY W and BONDI S at 4C. Corrected in v0.72 when BARCLAY W was changed to 6C.
Thanks.
