So I chose the FIA ending for the first time after playing Phantom Liberty

[FakeSympathy]

Given how every other ending has at least one NPCs I've come to care about, I was really curious on what would happen with this ending. And ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥..... it hurts. Two years coma? FFS I knew something was up, but wasn't expecting that.

Everyone has moved on. Felt bad for River, happy that Judy is doing alright, and Vik really makes me sad. But man, seeing Panam, someone who I've romanced, has pretty declared me dead and moved on, hurts me the most. I mean I'm glad no one had to die (except for Johnny, twice technically), but I honestly think this might be worse.

It's also probably one of the most realistic, bittersweet, and beautiful ending I've ever seen. I've experienced this myself; moved from another country to US (I come from Korea) and when I went back nothing was the same. Graduated high school here w/ friends whom we promised to stay in touch, and now I have no what they are up to after 10 years. Also reminded of my ex-relationship, where we ended in a positive note but still painful.

And yet, I am still glad to be here, a lot of things I've got to appreciate for, and will strive to live on for. Just like V, who still wants to keep going in NC.

Now if you'll excuse me, I am reloading the save to do the Aldecaldos ending for the nth time to escape this grim reminder

The Tower ending...all the endings will strike people differently. It's genius.

Oh yeah, that ending was amazing. It cut deep and was very well done. The very last part was *chef's kiss*.

I've only done that ending once and never again. Too depressing.

This should go in spoiler

The Tower ending name is based on tarot like the other endings, the actual card in most renditions (at least in the upright position) is one of the worst cards you can possibly get as it's more often than not, signifying something that people won't like.

The Tower means that disaster is either about to strike or has already struck. For V, that comes in the form of the destruction of their dream, they're unlikely to ever become a lasting living legend because they can't compete without cyberware, as well as because of the 2 year coma, most of their friends have forgotten about them and don't want anything to do with them anymore. Their old life is completely destroyed and the only solace is that they have a chance to start over, as a regular person that would be swatted away like an insect by people that are nowhere near as much of a threat as someone like Smasher.

the best ending imo. the most heart-wrenching, yet the most freeing.
