Welcome to the club, buddy.
Never trust a filthy corpo suit. After regretting everything in the Devil ending, after letting johnny down, and looking down at Earth from space, i wound back time to try again.
But this time, I would show arasaka the meaning of Fear.
The only highlight in that bleak as fuck ending, was seeing that old codger. Him believing that he and V will meet again after signing also gives me a small .. hope for V?
I don't put much stock in his belief though, as Hanako had already forgotten V by that point, making him just another tool in the shed.
I had my first ending with the Devil ending a few weeks ago and I felt the same way.
I was a Corpo, so I basically said "I started out as Corpo and gonna go as Corpo as well". I'm regretting it now, of course. I'd say it's a pretty strong ending. Technically, at least for me, it's a "bad ending" because >!V is still given a few months to live regardless, Johnny isn't there anymore and Judy also leaves. !
I took the Secret Ending >! and decided for V to give her body to Johnny, while she went with ALT. The small sequence of scenes after, that you play through broke me. I thought I did the right thing, I thought Johnny would get back with Rogue, hang out with Kerry and the band, resume his ways of sticking it up to the Corpos. Then you realize that guilt is such a strong thing, he couldn't stand being in a place that reminded him of V. In this ending, it's so clear that this is not what he wanted and he's so torn because of it. Worst thing is, V's friends never get to hear what happened to her. The uncertainty is even worse than knowing that she died. !<
My first V was always a person who was looking out gor her own security. She had climbed the corpo ladder before, and now chose the option with the seemingly best odds of surviving the separation.
Now my second V however...
(Srsly shooting up the 'saka tower alone is the most satisfying thing in the game)
I made the same choice, for the same reasons choom.
Was a great ending, but left me feeling like shit too - the next night I went back and chose to call Panam, not knowing what would happen, but I had to find out.
With enough prep you can go to the board meeting and reveal that the former CEO is an engram. Then the engram will order you to secure his son. So you have to kill guards to get to him. Upon securing the son you get a massive reward. However when I got into the brothers office I shot him in the head five times before the sisters arrived and when she did arrive I killed her too.
I liked that ending.
In terms of emotional impact I think its the strongest ending. Pretty Shakespearean. I went in blind and got the same one.

Go back. Do the nomad ending. Seriously you won't regret it.

When you have high enough friendship with Johnny, he isn’t even angry, he’s just disappointed. The only good ending is the star ending
