Horse Club Questions

[joeymeboy98]

1. Does either game have anything permanently missable, even rewards for finishing them in a specific manner?
2. Does either game have any promotional content, such as pre-order bonuses, items only available through special codes, bonuses for having save data from a different game, etc.?
3. Are both games identical on all platforms? (I'm not concerned about achievements because I believe all of them in both games are tied to completing the story, doing all the side quests, and getting all collectibles. If I'm wrong, please correct me.)

1. Only on day 10 in HCA2 you can decide to shortcut the handing out of the party invitations, but there is no achievement or reward missed by doing so.
2. No, both games had no promotional digital content and have no special items by codes.
3. Yes, both games are identical on all platforms with only a few performance tweaks for the Nintendo Switch (e.g. slightly less render distance)

Thank you! Is there a benefit to taking the shortcut besides the obvious?
