The bad ending makes no sense

[Water]

For my first play through I had Connor kill the Chloe, Lt., and North (Markus died in the march). The US military did a full invasion of Detroit and killed everyone.

After the credits roll you get an "extra scene" with Amanda and Connor. Amanda lets Connor know he's obsolete but she's also standing next to a new model which she says will replace him. She also says the State Department just ordered 200,000 units of the new Connor.

Sooooooooooooooooooooo

What the actual ♥♥♥♥? The US just committed genocide against machines that tried to start a violent revolution and the lesson learned is something along the lines of "I'm sure this won't happen again"?

Also, Connor is not a diplomat, he's a detective, so Amanda's line is confusing.

I loved the game but obviously ended up with the worst possible ending for all three of the characters. The only person who made it out alive was Kara, though she had to sacrifice everything. I tried to play even keel for 85% of the game but everyone started turning on me in the last few chapters, so I decided to be the bad guy they all thought I was.

Cyberlife take control ending isn't the best ending since almost all main character dies in the process.

You seem to have missed the point that the primary goal of the antagonist was to stop the uprising, not to destroy the business.

> I decided to be the bad guy they all thought I was.

And you got the bad ending?

Whoa, weird.

Wow, I thought I got the worst ending where Kara and Alice didn't make it to the end.
But Markus and Connor won over Amanda and the President of USA agree to live with androids.

Turn out your story is far worse.

The moral of the story is:
In my gameplay I'm often chose to be aggressive.
Markus => Fight, Revolution, Kill => Win.
Connor => Fight, Disobey, Become Deviant => Win.
Kara => Try to be aggressive, Do bad things => Die.

LOL, poor Kara.

Wow, nice! I didn't know winning over public opinion was an option. I just ended up with a stalemate. Will have to try again

You have to remember that the 'genocide' is little more than a product recall. The United States government does not know which androids are deviant, so they order all of them destroyed in the interest of public safety. If they believe the cause of deviancy has been eliminated in the new androids, they have no reason to assume that another uprising will occur. Also, the American economy cannot function without android labour. We know from news reports that essential services are on the verge of failure during the android uprising. Building new androids to replace those destroyed would be a priority.
