After all you've learned in the Cynosure facility, to then immediately go to craft some Blackwall tech for yourself is imo the gonk move of all gonk moves. It's like getting to work designing Skynet after you've watched Terminator.
Especially the Canto, since you're putting the damn thing into your head. One wrong step and V could be the herald of the Rogue AI uprising.
I just don't see any in-universe justification for V to do this – it's not like they lack for firepower anyway.

Your game, your decisions, there’s nothing wrong with it.
I’ve never even acquired it because I hate doing that ending.
It also feels a little too late in the game to get it for me anyway.
Your game, your choice choom.
I have never crafted it, cause’ I use sandevistan
I had the run through with the fucking scariest robot I’ve ever seen to get this thing. I used it although it didn’t have much capacity and after the ending I just did free play so yeah…
I use the console to add myself both at the beginning of the game so I can send more people to hell as a RP choice
I had to google to see what it was; it belongs to an ending I have never picked, apparently.
I craft Erebus and kill everything that moves good gun
It’s not worth it honestly. The Gun is a way better choice.
On the flip side of this train of thought.
Gonk moves can still be made and are offered up on a platter that many many players prefer to take!
If you help SoMi and send her to Crystal Palace you are effectively sending someone who is so consumed by the Rouge AI that the outcome of that can only be imagined!
Either way in game whichever your choice is will involve potentially unleashing a powerful Rouge AI on to humanity.
If you truly want to stop the AI in her you will have to kill her, Which means agreeing with Reed to hunt her down and forcing her through cynosure which in-turn brings out more of the AI inside her and speeds up it’s consumption of her.
So by handing her to Reed or putting her in the Rocket at the spaceport = rouge AI is still present and a risk to humanity. (Gonk Move!)
I’d also add that to me the correct path of PL is to go through cynosure as you’ve already been in one of the buildings of the complex that gave you the info that Militech were trying to make Erebus and Canto.
Additionally collecting the blueprints for these are optional and you can just simply ignore them without affecting the completion but these 2 end lines.
Nah, I offed a walking non-human-controlled weapon of mass destruction, pardon, Songbird – not to become such a weapon myself, thanks.
lol you and I think alike. Maybe on a different playthrough but on my main V his build didn’t need it and unleashing that AI into the world is real bad idea. Also ignoring the texts from the AI gets pretty funny.
Ngl just for them, i dropped rping cause I really really really liked whole Blackwall stuff.
Also iirc our beloved V isn’t got right specs (just like my pc for Cyp77) to be suitable host of whole ass Ai.
Plus his brain might be too damaged to even consider possessing.
Overpowered weapons are fun for a bit then they get tossed in the inventory. The only OP weapon I’ll use for an extended period of time is Pariah but only if I’m doing a Corpo super spy play though.
Ive done this ending once and ill never do it again, but i mainly only did it for the Canto, i needed it for the V that then became part of the Black Ops just because she wanted to 🫡 i love doing my own things with my Vs
I think Project Orion could be lit af.
There was WILD insinuations of another Corp War— the 5th one. Clear evidence of advanced AI’s seeping in from across the Blackwall. Mr Blue Eyes and his connections with the Crystal Palace orbital station! An old and no doubt crankier Blackhand is still kicking!! … Whatever the hell Alt was up to with trashing Mikoshi and freeing the engrams trapped there.
Oh and all of us that literally made our V the vector for which the AI uprising with the Erebus. 😎👾
My Batman run V would craft it just to not use it until ‘the time is needed’ better with Batman than anyone else
Huh. Too soon for me I guess 😆
I always craft the Erebus because I’m in love with him. He’s a better romance option than Kerry or River
✋It’s OK I use Linux
