I walk out peacefully. Since I’m working with Reed and Alex, I follow their lead. If it was just V (me) I’d go blasting.

I go out peacefully for immersion reasons as i don’t do PL with end game stats but rather parallel to base game
Duncan_sucks
I didn’t realize until right now that I could go blasting at this point. I just saw Reed with a gun on him and assumed that it was part of the mission to leave quietly. If I do it again I guess I’ll start swinging once they start talking. If I remember.

went peacfuly to the door until one of them mouthed off one to meany times
sonicxtacy02
given all of the dialog that lead up to that point, I HAPPILY flatlined everyone in there.

I never realized leaving peacefully was an option.

These guys’ responses seem to be drastically different depending on what you did during the infiltration.
Me, I usually slip in quiet enough to make sure they stay professionals about this. But my more violent Vs would waste them any way because I want Hansen to know, he couldn’t have stopped me if he tried.

How much XP do you get from walking out peacefully? There’s your answer lol
Trickmac04
Walk out peacefully, then after Reed leaves, break open the window and go crazy

I went guns mother fucking blazing choom! 🕺

They are begging for it and it should put a big dent in Hason’s supply of guards…
RosieQParker
I’d gone ham on the guys outside the tower so often by that point, it really was dumb of them to expect any different.
Puzzleheaded_Big6997
Walked out peacefully until the dude by the entrance door called me a b***h, then I let them know what a nightcity boogeyman really looked like
MarroCaius
Initially, I went out peacefully, but after all the yapping, I loaded my most recent quicksave and sent Hansen a message

Peace was never an option …

I was gonna walk out peacefully, but Barghest started insulting me and Reed
Reed asked me to go peacefully, so i do, but the entire time i am trying to psychically urge one of the soldiers to say something provocative. And I assume that they don’t because they know that’s the end if they do.

I’m on a mission and need to be incognito. I’ll come back later to paint the walls

I made their mech cyberpsycho out at the last second then ran for it.

Peacefully is my preference for playing through normally.
Unsurprisingly, the quicker option for speedrunning is to blast the guy and haul ass.

I just walk out.
First off, we’re sorta in the middle of an operation at this point, so I don’t want to do anything rash that might hinder future events.
Second off, the game didn’t really do anything to make me truly hate BARGHEST or Kurt. Ultimately I’m only fighting them because either I was hired by NUSA for that, or I’m trying to find an iconic Crusher from an airdrop.

If I’m using a Sandy build, they’ll never see sunlight again.
Neon-Curse
There’s a video of this scene where they do the corpo dialogue option towards the guard with female V but in Japanese which just changes the whole vibe immensely, I love it.
I accidentally went in guns blazing during my latest playthrough. One of the dudes recognised me and they all turned hostile…woops

I go loud before with Reed. Our entrance into the Black Sapphire was as dumb as a “bunch of damn rookies”. Yet I saved his dumb ass by gunning down some gonks. So after playing games, I leave the Hansen goons club without harming a soul. But a Barghast goon said he can’t let us leave because his goons thought they could clap back?! So anyways, I started blasting.

My current nomad V is a hothead. The first insult flying my way will eat gorilla arms in the face.

Walked out peacefully. I’m a merc and that’s the gig. Only gonks make it personal. Dead gonks.

I normally manage to leave without killing anyone else. I figured they might be a little under-staffed with as many as i kill getting inside.
Strange_Lead_9678
The first playthrough I did I accidentally started leveling these people because I thought it was about to go down. I got A LOT of weapons and gear after completing it. When I played the second it dawned on me that they aren’t going to attack. I was totally getting my V prepped for it beforehand too!
ninjah0lic
Never stand down. Kill everything.
SpadePirateCap
I never tried killing everyone in this cutscene. Does it trigger anything for the story? I might do it in my next playthrough

If this is the one I think it is, I think I was going to be peaceful and then someone was just a little too mouthy. So I decided to let their boss know that I just didn’t want to embarrass him in front of Liz Wiz and took out all his security with my fists at a jogging pace. Though I think the last guy – I tore off a turret for him.
