[post-game spoilers] What to do now?

[George Summers]

I have reached the true ending for Gray and I have some questions:
1) Is the last section of the final battle winnable? I survived for about a half-minute or so and then there was a cut-scene and then the credits rolled. If it's winnable, would there be any new content before the credits?
2) Is it worth it to collect all the NPCs for the credit sequences? I've been rushing because it was my third attempt to figure out how to end the run properly so I only interacted with the nun and got her cut-scene.
3) Is there a different ending for reaching the DIS as Lilith? Also, is it even possible to obtain true Add's scepter and solve final brand as Cif?
4) What do the five circles in the bottom-right corner in 0stRanger mean? I grasped most of the mechanics but cannot figure out why they glow from time to time.
5) How much content in the game beyond 0stRanger, shortcut puzzle and Carcass-something is left for me to discover?

1) Yes, you have to reach Lev's core and press the interact button to "win". If you wanna try it again, you can quit the game as soon as you die to try again without having to do DIS again. And yeah there's some extra stuff if you do it.

2) Not really, you just get some extra CGs. You can see these on Youtube if you want.

3) Yes, some of the dialogue before you transform changes. And no, you can't do it as Cif since they can't even enter DIS.

4) I think it's your HP? I didn't play much 0stranger to be honest.

5) You'll can unlock some side stuff by beating the 0stranger high score... aside from that, there's this side area you can reach by doing specific stuff. And the joke ending.

Not sure this is right...
It does not change after taking damage,
Nor collecting the orbs affects it,
But when some enemies are destroyed it works as some gauge I suppose. I've seen it go up for 3 dots after each destroyed wave at the very beginning but it's hard to track them in chaos after that. And when all 5 are filled they glow and something happens? Mystery.

One last question. Is there any more content to Cif's run? I remember reaching the white rooms after I missed the footsteps in B193 and there was a big statue with cracked head that can be kicked, but I'm not sure that 6 kicks worked on it (or I probably miscounted them) so I left to find the intended ending.

Kinda, the joke ending involves Cif. (Kill Tail and Gor as Lillie, then finish the game until you switch to Cif, then go to B000)

You can find that on Youtube.
