I remember when I watched cyberpunk edgerunners, I did shed a few tears at the end. But playing this and making the decisions myself was an entirely different level because in the back of my mind I was like ”damn, I could’ve done something to stop this.” This ending (where Songbird dies) just hit me way too hard for some reason.

Don’t even give Myers the satisfaction of asking about the cure.
I just can’t do it even if Songbird screws you over I see her mission to the end and just wish she would’ve asked and been more honest cuz my V would’ve helped her no matter what.
Did both So Mi betrayal routes yesterday, and I’m never siding with Reed again. I like hime, love Idris Elba, think he’s genuinely trying to help, and yet, I’ll always choose to shoot him in the face, be betrayed by Song and possibly contribute to another apocalypse rather than endure the deep despair of those endings. Hopefully, she and Lucy can hang out on the moon.
This is probably the best ending for her, Myers would turn her into a mindless puppet for breaching the Blackwall, same as sending her to the moon, since “Mr. Blue Eyes” would probably also use her in some way himself. Giving her the freedom of death is the best thing you can do for her in that situation, she never could run from her past choices. If i remember correctly someone said that her life ended the moment she got hired by Reed to serve Myers and the NUSA. It went the same way for V when she/he accepted the relic heist.
I just recently got this ending because I chose the moon one before. God I felt like such an asshole but I was playing a “ruthless mercenary V” with a shotgun and a thirst for blood. Yelled at her and blamed her every chance I got and I felt horrible. Yeah, she lied to everyone and got dozens of people killed. If you count the ones I killed during these missions then it’s in the tens of thousands. Felt kinda weird when talking to Johnny in my apartment and saying “I’ve zeroed hundreds of people (well, tens of thousands) and I just couldn’t kill her”. Yeah, I easily could of and probably should have but I need the achievement for the secret ending.
She was a victim but also a bad guy. Depends on your perspective. But god dam when I told reed I would trash that shitty medal and he just walked off saying “that’s your choice….” That hurt. I dunno, this ending was the best mission though. I chose the moon the first time and that mission was shot compared to the Metroid dread ass mission I got in this ending. Fun as shit, I’ll betray her every chance I get next time since it’s so much fun. Erebus is also cool as fuck, and getting a message from the ais talking about “we just want the data from your reality” was cool as hell.
