Question about Apollo and Glyphs

[Alkizar]

I know Apollo can die at some point. During my normal run-through I want him to stay alive.

Should I give him the portal address or not when he asks?
What choices do I have to make to keep him alive?

[Alkizar]

No, Apollo. At one point he asks for the address to the portal you found to come meet you. you can choose to give it to him or refuse.

I refused Apollo the glyphs in my recent post-Beyond playthrough, convincing them that the portal network was too dangerous to use without more information. Later, they got bitter about me cutting them out of my adventure and, upon learning of the end of existence, decided they would go through the portal anyway (YOLO logic, I guess). Whether they make it to the other side is left as a cliffhanger.

(On this playthrough, I also stuck Artemis in the simulation and withheld the truth. Near the end, the ATLAS judged me as a champion of life, no matter the cost.)

Apollo doesn't seem to die either way, and the "meet each other on the planet" plot point near the end still happens regardless of your decision.

Hopefully this answer is satisfactory, OP.

Wrong. Apollo will die if you give him the coordinates, just like Artemis did when she went through the portal before you met her.

actually no.
artemis went through a portal by herself before you met. she died before you met.
apollo went through a portal "with your help". he survived thanks to your help.
-null is the one who floated the idea to the player that apollo died. its not true.
the atlas says the guidance you provided allowed apollo to survive his journey.

I've heard to make Apollo live after giving him the glyphs you should say "no" or "i don't know" whenever he asks you what is the purpose of live if you say "yes" I've heard he will die not sure if thats entirely true I just stick to saying "i don't know" because thats how I basically respond to almost any question I get asked IRL if I don't know if any other way to respond lol 🤣
