I don’t know man…the auto-delete ending is rough…the phone calls of all your friends and especially Judy and Vic….i did that ending to see what happens and it ruined me for days. Fighting with dark thoughts in the past…this ending was a severe gut punch.
I felt even more devastated after this. You cannot say that Johnny is somewhere out there. He is not in cyberspace, he was not preserved or sent off to some sort of digital world. He has been completely erased. It's just like he said in "Chippin' In" mission - "Like I never even was..."
One of the items you can use for Jackie's Ofrenda is a book by Ernest Hemingway. A quote attributed to Hemingway should lessen your devastation some “Every man has two deaths, when he is buried in the ground and the last time someone says his name. In some ways men can be immortal.” - Ernest Hemingway. Watch the movie COCO for the importance of an Ofrenda.
You are wrong.The consequences of his presence, actions and relationships echoes and ripples on and playes their part in shaping the future, as it does for all things that have existed.
But he is somewhere out there, he’s a construct, a part of the net but he’s also static thus Alt who has to continuously evolve to survive/live will slowly assimilate him.
@@nhoj084eva the transient disconnected interchangeable fair weather betrayal is painful in a sense; "didnt this mean more? you throw it away so easily?" but it would be worse to have stuck it out and end up with fakes close by acting like you mean so much when really you're just "the one ...right now, until better comes along"
I held off on doing this ending until completing basically all the side content, had just started things up wtih Judy, had my character all maxed out to 5++ cyberware as an edgerunner, and finally got around to triggering this ending. I expected a fight sequence, but I did not expect the most tragic and ironic ending for this version of V I'd created.
V and Johnny are like brothers at this point, man it hits hard. At first I kinda disliked him, then he started to be better, and at the ending man we connected. I feel bad for him ending like this, but on the other hand, Johnny can finally rest in peace.
Honestly speaking, I didn't prefer this ending as it is sad AF, V goes on from a merc that no one can even dare to tohch to an NPC. Still think the best ending is don't fear the reaper one.
@@NAvz_121 ...Well, considering the Circumstances of how you get this ending, I get the feeling Songbird was laughing at V getting beaten up, wherever she is now. Don't Fear the Reaper at least has V taking fate into their own hands... "The Tower" however, involves taking away someone else's choice to take fate into their own hands... ...Also, the "Cure" that the Expansion Gives us, does tell us that the Nomad ending Post-Don't fear the Reaper, where we Leave Night City, has a VERY high chance of curing V anyway! There is hope, and very likely, a Way to make sure Johnny isn't destroyed and V gets to keep the Chrome!
I'll be honest, once I finished the Phantom Liberty expansion, I was so pissed off. Angry even. Why? V does so much for the likes of Judy, Panam, and others throughout the story arc, and Johnny is by V's side all the way through, but portrayed as more of an irritation, even hinderance to V. The back-and-forth, the arguments, angry words, insults, disagreements... but then there were those moments of bonding, empathy, humour, and even companionship. When all those so-called 'friends' turn their back on V after the coma, and there is that silence. No Johnny to be there, no matter what. It's then you truly realise how much you fucked up and killed the one-and-only real friend you had all along. Yes, this is what got me angry - daft as it sounds. I felt V had been cheated and Johnny also. The betrayal I felt by those whom V once considered friends, and more, especially that brat, Panam. Judy totally threw me for a curve. Just goes to prove, CDPR writers did an utterly amazing job.
You can find out V's real name way before the ending of Phantom Liberty. During the quest Automatic Love V's real name is used by a doll if you use the right conversation choices. So the name isn't anything new that came with the expansion at all.
thats why i love it because even though theres plenty of filler content, there still is a lot of valuable story in the background of the main storyline
In my needing Johnny was ok with letting go but just upset that we didn’t bring down the system with it. It was more a conversation of talking about the regrets instead of like this being more accepting.
sadly as it is they wont be making new dlc as they said they want to focus on new games, and we can kinda get that off the good ending with V not being able to fight anyone and eveyone out of his life, because if the ending just fixed his problem now he had a chance to expand the world like going to tokyo to help blue moon or a mini expansion to help judy with some shit or follow the nomad to a new city and come with shit there, so many possibilities but alas
The next cyberpunk probably wont give us the closure we so desperately want. But Vs story seems to significant to not have a canon ending, so hopefully we'll get to see the canon series of events in the next game.
This and his reason why speech hit hard for me as a combat veteran. I was in Iraq for two tours, and when I got out, I was just filled with anger, then at some point, I learned to let go. I am the opposite, only my closest friends use my nickname. If you are allowed to use it, then I have you in the same circle as my battle buddies who passed away in combat, and there is nothing I won't do and no price I am not willing to pay for you. It's rare for me, but I fully got Johnny.
Phantom Liberty’s end felt like a series of gut punches. It’s like the monkey-paw wish - I got what I wanted, but everything is… wrong. Yet it’s so well written that all I can do is weep.
The only thing that would have made this scene better is if that was the first and only time you heard what V’s full name actually was. But I’m quibbling-it’s just a phenomenal interaction overall.
If you think about it.. Cyberpunk2077 is just fightclub plot, but instead of being schizophrenic, there’s an actual dead person’s consciousness stored inside of you while it kills you slowly
I think everyone likes to forget that this is not Johnny he is long dead. It’s a personality construct with Johnny’s memories, effectively an AI. Just like when Soulkiller puts V into Mikoshi he just simply dies and Mikoshi creates an engram. So essentially this is the only ending where V truly survives.
Yeah, but V will no longer have the ability to use Netrunning powers, they wake up two years after the events of the ending, and you have nothing, not even your friends... And it gets you beaten up by common street thugs. Yeah. (Sppiler warning incoming.) ...I realized after a bit of research as to why the "Tower" ending (This ending) was so harsh, is because the Game was _punishing_ you, as the only current way to get the engram out of V, is to steal it from So Mi when you have the choice to Cure her... ...So Mi, the Nethacker who considers her chrome a curse rather than a blessing, and would not care if she can never use cybernetics again. For an extra layer of smarts, So Mi's big plan involved her leaving in a rocket after her cure is administered. She _left Night City!_ Of _course she was going to have a happier ending with the cure!_ V, on the other hand, _stays_ in night city... So when the cure is given, V loses everything. V loses the Chrome, their power, their friends, Two years of their life, everything... They are a nobody, and can never become a somebody ever again.
While I hate the idea that the only current "Cure V ending" is one that leaves us the Worst off, considering the circumstances behind the ending, I can see why it was so harsh. We condemned someone who didn't want such deadly chrome and a short lifespan to her death after years of trying to free herself, just to selfishly cure ourselves... So the Idea is that "Our actions have consequences" really hit us in full force.
@@Victor-056 i mean V is like 25-27 in the game and only about 3 months pass during the playtime so it's hardly a big deal losing 3 months old friends or loved ones you have plenty of time getting new ones. Also it's not that V can't use any kind of cyberware only combat ones so you can still use optics and such. Also for example Morgan Blackhand never used any cyberware and still became a legend you don't necessarily need it. V can still choose what he/she wants with his/her life, still has all the cars, apartments, money, gear etc, can move to any city and do whatever. Screw the backstabbing asshole scheming Somi. (why do you think your own life is a charity to others? - on top of that to a stranger who is basically brainwashing you and screws you over from the second she contact you to the very end, again again and again) The only sad part is Johnny's engram getting wiped. I do think CDPR has generally done a terrible job with all of the endings (base and dlc) they are trying to force their own agenda on to the player (whats good or bad etc) - holocalls during the credits included
@@kerotomas1 "Combat Chrome" includes Hackware, Optical systems and other such things. Remember, the Cure affected the _Brain,_ not the body. V becomes a complete Organic in the post game, and in the Tower ending, it is NOT "Three Months", it is _TWO YEARS_ in the Post Game for "The Tower", which is the Cure Ending. _YEARS._ That is _TWENTY FOUR MONTHS!_ Do I have to spell it out? Because you are peddling a false story.
@@Victor-056 Probably you can't read but what i said is that the time during you get your friends and romance is about 3 months. what this means is that you can get new friends and all just as easily. Do i need to type with caps lock on too like you did?
@@kerotomas1 Not without the Chrome. V is still in night city, where you _need_ to be Chrome, or you just get stomped. There is a _REASON_ you get Chrome regardless of playthrough. Then again, I put it in Capslock because you apparently have trouble reading. You like to harp on about "Lulz, soz ez", ignoring that you are using Modern society standards, rather than _Dystopia_ Standards... Then again, considering how anything that has been on the internet is considered "Ancient History" when it is only two to three years old, we may not be far from Dystopia.
This is why I left Reed Hanging, never replied to the text. Since you don't have to make that choice I chose to keep Johny around. Wouldn't have survived without him anyway.
On one side I like the ending, on the other.. wish they'd just let V be the way he/she was at the start of the game, no strip him/her of all of what he/she was. You know - just a little chrome, never to flashy, not to be trashed by some scum.
The circumstances of the ending give a reason why it was so nasty. (Spoiler warning for "The Tower" ending...) To get "The Tower" ending, you have to steal the Cure from So Mi when you have the choice to cure her... Which is effectively a death sentence for her. She spent years trying to unshackle herself from the Companies, and even more trying to regain her life... And when you had the choice to free her... You took it away to cure _yourself._ In a sense, the Cure making V a "Nobody" is Karma from So Mi, as she never wanted the chrome... And her plan also involved her escaping in a Rocket, so she gets away from Night City while also freeing herself from the Chrome that "Cursed" her. By taking away the Cure, you deny her the right to be free... So you got what you wanted... But You also got what you did not want.
I've never done male V. Ever. Sometimes I forget it's an option so I see stuff like this and I'm like that's not V that's Vince lmao. Where's the real V?!?
I have to be honest, Phantom Liberty left me feeling bitter and pissed off on many levels - due to the various betrayals of V by some many of his so-called friends. Watching him walk off at the very end into the crowded street, man, I was gutted and deflated and angry. Out of everyone, I wished he and Johnny couldn't have stayed together. After playing Phantom Liberty from start to finish, try playing the whole game afresh - you'll be making decisions differently because of it.
Correct me if I'm wrong but i think the only other time we hear V's real name spoken is by Angel/Skye during the base games questline. I like seeing the changes if you're close with Johnny, adds depth to the conflict!
Huh. I didn't get this ending. This one seems like a good ending. All of the others (that I got - 3 of them) were a fucking downer where V gets screwed over. I didn't know there was one where V actually gets to live without a death sentence.
Vincent is a powerful name, bro. It's derived from Vencentius, a Roman name that was previously derived from the Latin vincere, meaning "to conquer." Vincent is quite literally a warrior's name, and very masculine.

By taking away the Cure, you deny her the right to be free... So you got what you wanted... But You also got what you did not want.
I've never done male V. Ever. Sometimes I forget it's an option so I see stuff like this and I'm like that's not V that's Vince lmao. Where's the real V?!?
I have to be honest, Phantom Liberty left me feeling bitter and pissed off on many levels - due to the various betrayals of V by some many of his so-called friends. Watching him walk off at the very end into the crowded street, man, I was gutted and deflated and angry. Out of everyone, I wished he and Johnny couldn't have stayed together.
After playing Phantom Liberty from start to finish, try playing the whole game afresh - you'll be making decisions differently because of it.
He obtains Liberty but he became a Phantom
Should upvote this.
Awh, always knew it was vincent
what ending is this??? three years after finishing the game and I've never even heard of this lol
This game is brilliant but I had stop playing it. It hurts me man.
Correct me if I'm wrong but i think the only other time we hear V's real name spoken is by Angel/Skye during the base games questline.
I like seeing the changes if you're close with Johnny, adds depth to the conflict!
True, they really put some work in this ending 💯
I knew it was Viktor.
Bro this was such a spoiler omg noooooooo
This one of the phanton liberty endings?
Fuck this ending man...
Huh. I didn't get this ending. This one seems like a good ending. All of the others (that I got - 3 of them) were a fucking downer where V gets screwed over. I didn't know there was one where V actually gets to live without a death sentence.
Wtf how did i get this concersation?
I get why they abbreviated it lol
Vincent is a powerful name, bro. It's derived from Vencentius, a Roman name that was previously derived from the Latin vincere, meaning "to conquer." Vincent is quite literally a warrior's name, and very masculine.
Bro never played FF7... Vincent is a badass name.
Nah, V is a pretty stupid name. They really should’ve used his full name. Vincent sounds so much better.
ICE CUBE REFERENCE
imagine u're female character called vincent
lol you'd be called Valerie instead
@@feelcollins4358 I SHOULD be called valerie yea xD
@@hci_yuuzou1696 er I mean female V is literally called Valerie, that's her name lol. Johnny would just call you Valerie instead if you're playing as a female V
I FUCKIN GUESSED MALE V’S NAME WAS VINCENT LETS GO!!
If it’s V it’s most likely Victor or Vincent
It’s Vincent. His name gets said twice throughout the game
It feels even worse knowing this is the canon ending
people will say no, but this one is definitely canon because it's the worst of them all
fem v romanced judy nomad ending best ending of all time
I am still with the solo secret ending. Go out with a bang.
best ending is dont fear the reaper and give johnny the body.
Easily the best ending. Send Son Mi to space too and kill Reed.
@@sethdomings9262 just wraps everything nicely. V gets to be a legend then go beyond the wall and Johnny gets a chance a life without being a dick. only one who doesn't end off better is panam.
I love don't fear the reaper too
@@sethdomings9262Simp
@@sethdomings9262nopeeeeeeree, betray her and get the black wall mods!
does the "good night Vincent" part change if you're playing as a girl
Valerie
how do i get this end?
WHAT!?!
What ending is this?
New one from Phantom Liberty. You have to leave the final mission with both So Mi and Reed alive
also have to have good relationship status with johnny. Else you will have completely different dialogues.
@@ShammityShamSham didn’t realize they was an option
