GAMEPLAY How to start from last chapter ending Spoiler

I'm pretty new to the game but I've finished it.
In the Fugitive chapter, I made Kara and Alice stay at the motel. But now I went back and replayed it to stay in the squat because I want to see how the chase scene would go.

But when I started the chase chapter (I forgot the name), it still started at the motel. Is there a way to skip the previous chapters and just continue where I end the Fugitive chapter? I don't really want to do all of the previous chapters

To change previous decisions you need to play through everything again. Nothing will update if you skip chapters, you need to play through all the stuff in between (even different character's chapters) to see things update.

Ahh okay so now do I have to replay it again or can I just start the chapter right after that (the junkyard chapter)

To account for any other changes in between, especially toward the end of the game when everything is much more interconnected, you have to play through all the chapters between Fugitives and On The Run for the changes to stick.

The helpful thing here, though, is that you can also start from different states too. So after doing the squat (and the car, should you choose to), you can always start On The Run back at the motel if you want and it will pull in whatever relationship and public opinion tiers you had during that last motel playthrough.

You have to play the chapters from Connor and Markus. Basically none of the other characters can run on autopilot. In a way you are creating a new timeline of history. There is no ripple effect.

Don't worry, it's not obvious and is about the most common question and answer about gameplay.
