What with the Lilith AI being summoned from beyond the blackwall with that one cyberpsycho quest and then this whole storyline with Song, I really, REALLY hope the next cyberpunk game has a main character that is somehow involved with the blackwall and AI beyond it.

[@mnedogoda]

My preferred ending tbh, not just because I sympathize with Song as a character, but what it means for her. Does it matter that she wasn't completely honest with V about the neural matrix? Sure, it kinda hurts, but at that point the matrix is her only chance of getting a "second chance" as she called it. She can't storm Arasaka, she has no access to Mikoshi, or Alt. V has all those options, so it made sense to me to free her life from NUSA, and Meyers specifically. To put it as simply as possible, our girl got tired of being used by a corp (in this case, by Myers) to access beyond blackwall for personal gain (game makes sure to mention it multiple times), to Song's own deterriment. That kind of desperation is understandable, and familiar to V. So, to me, it only made sense to help Song possibly get her life back.

[@SteelSpurs]

Agreed. For me, my V saw a kindred spirit in Song, and helping her get out just felt like the right thing to do.

[@syabri2342]

As much as the lie stings, in the end Songbird chose to tell the truth when she absolutely could have fooled V to the end. Confessing just before passing out was the worst possible move a cold-blooded manipulator could make, which proves that she's more than that. That's the detail that won me over and made me protect her.

[@iliyuka1305]

But it will be used by Mr. Blue and other iskins

[@imshail]

also doesn't help that giving the NUSA (which is just Militech pretending it's the USA) unrestrained access to whatever is beyond the blackwall is a horrible idea for the rest of humanity

[@Geroaergaroe]

​​@@imshailThat's the funniest part. Freeing Song means giving him over to Blue Eye. Blue Eye is linked to both rogue AI and Militech. That's made evident by how he uses Peralez as a front, whom is the NUSA candidate for NC. You also spot old militech tech during Dream On. You might even argue that MBE is a result of Project cynosure. There's absolutely no winning move in the DLC, except perhaps killing Song. But even in that case you give back the neural matrix, a rogue AI, to Militech. There is a nice parallel between Song being used by MBE in Fatal Moon and V being used by MBE after The Sun ; with both being sent in space.

[@flexoffender5997]

This ending was the one I ended up with and it makes sense. Johnny and V influenced each other so much, taught each other a shit ton and changed each other for the better and worse. This ending lets Songbird have a chance, and saves Alex in the process. In a way, it saves Reed too - because he was so tangled up in the Nusa shit and his own principles he was only leading himself into the same problem So Mi had. Being used for others benefits whether it meant his life or someone elses. V walks away empty handed of course, but at the same time, I feel like Johnny and V had been together so long, they were almost the same person at that point. My version of V wouldnt have sold out or murdered my way to the cure to erase Johnny as if we didn't go through some of the hardest and dumbest shit together. While I agree the ending where you do get the cure is heart wreching and really well written. I dont know, I jsut felt like this is the way V would have handled shit. Especially witb the influence of silverhand lingering around. V would have wanted saved everyone, and Silverhand didnt want to go. They achieved that.

[@operatornaut8534]

I also hated the ending cure tbh. I was after Judy and V staying together, and the DLC kinda shit on that with the cure ending. So I"ve opted for this one instead, Judy and V relationship or not went through everything just like V and Jackie did. and I didn't like the idea that Judy basically doesn't give a care for u in the ending it had for V relating to the Cure.

[@clarencewalters338]

You say you're unwilling to murder for the cure but that's exactly what you do in EVERY ending. If you raid Saka with ANYBODY including Saka themselves, the blood of hundreds if not BILLIONS due to the wider scope of consequences is on V's hands.

[@cosmic2750]

I think the DLC canonically power scales V even more. And makes her scarier. Like, Songbird basically collapses after interacting with the Blackwall, while V manages to power through it enough to still be able to fight (think to the duel at the end...if yk yk). And remember this ain't no run of the mill netrunner either, its arguably the best netrunner NUSA has. V is canonically the strongest merc to have ever walked Night City.

[@naturazpolski9213]

But on the other hand, So Mi was so devastated after so many encounters that maybe she's just so weak after hundreds of times doing it and V does it for the very first tims

[@EGOR.d07]

yeah but somi had been entangled with that fuckery for years. there's a few dialogues and text pieces reporting that her behavior had been changing, that she was starting to crack (that's why she hatched that whole plan with Hansen, cos she knew Myers had no problem using her until death and beyond). and even after that certain exhaustion she was experiencing, she still managed to hack the entire dogtown stadium and the whole fucking spaceport. And, imo, its technically wrong to mention V as a singular independent individual.. V died to Dex, the legendary unkillable merc is actually the fusion between hers and johnny's conscience, that gets progressively stronger as the biochip spreads further into V's brain. V without johnny couldn't survive that long, its NC's nature. she would've went just like David did. (that's a lesson on nature i guess.. johhny's construct is an anomaly. immortality shouldn't exist).

[@Zedistics]

The parallels between Song Bird = V, Reed = Takemura, and NSUA = Arasaka. Song Bird i s a version of V that has nothing and no one. Can't be mad at Song Bird who is trying to survive, who has kept secrets her whole life and worked as an agent. Reed on the other hand is another hound for NSUA. No matter what they do to him, mark him for death, screw him over, use him, he will always serve because the NSUA is all he knows and will ever know. Sounds familiar, don't you think? Takemura was the same exact way. When you take down Arasaka while Takemura is alive, he vows to take revenge on V. Selling Song Bird is the equivalent of turning V in to Arasaka. Even going through with Reed's ending is the same as Arasaka. They "help you", but all they do is damn you and Johnny. Reed cannot be trusted and neither myers. Considering Reed "took care" of jacob and his friend to tie up loose ends should be a red flag. It's funny to se Mr. Hands being the only upstanding guy in this mess. Blue Eyes is truly V's only hope, and I know he is going to play a big role in the next cyberpunk with the black wall (as most dlcs are teasers for the next installment).

[@shidenkai2099]

I always thought that "don't fear the reaper" is the proper way to go out with a boom, solving problems by yourself. so I agreed to help her without any expectations for a cure. Yet for a brief moment I was tiny bit bummed. But not about the lack of cure, rather her lying to V. So it is understandable if some were disappointed in her. But looking back to interactions with So Mi, it was obvious she deeply regrets on the inside for lying, sometimes lashing out on V for it as she feels tormented by his/her kind and honest responses, and optimism where V says He/She trusts her, or moments where So Mi is mutely shaking her head when V talks about cure. I couldn't be mad at her because she didn't lie out of spite or with the intention of hurting V, and I agreed with Johnny that her determination to commit acts she herself did not like to do, commanded some respect. Probably that's why I choosed the same "Would've helped you anyway" line. So Mi saw herself when she learned about V, the only kindred spirit with the same or even stronger determination than her, probably partly why she contacted V in the first place too: respect. My theory is that the only thing she did not expect is to get attached to V, seeing more in common than just strongwill and building further up the already present guilt in herself. Also V was the only "real" person she could talk to about her hardships and past, (especially while Kurt and his men were breathing on her neck daily) unlike Myers or the loyal dogs of the FIA like Reed, who was unwilling to put So Mi above his duty (he was the same as Takemura) I really liked this ending.

[@seeinred]

Up until this point, this DLC, the only two legit moments of horror i've seen were related to AI. First is "possessed" cyberpsycho from Maelstrom, and the second is that scene where you get contacted by blue-eyed AI people before talking to the politician in the side-quest. And now we can see Blackwall in all it's horrifying glory. The game has always been kind gruesome, dismemberment and other things included. But, until this time, there were no cases of someone dying on screen while inducing sheer horror of their agony. Blackwall Gateway does look like that, the worst way to go.

Echoing, reverberating and distorted screams of death and agony, as V's very perception of afflicted targets and reality around them twists and turns, as if being ripped apart by forces beyond your comprehension.

He is indeed honest, but the idea that NUSA will actually help Song is in reality a lie. He is so blinded by duty and only realizes that V was right about Song once its too late if you side with Reed. Its not black and white and I really appreciate a narrative such as this. If Reed was honest with himself he would have abandoned Myers a long time ago as he was present at the time that Song was losing his memory even witnessing a moment where Song could not recognize Reed in the past after returning from the Blackwall. In the end its all up to the players own moral code to decide what's right in the moment.

Also, a few days after sending our girl to the moon you get a message from her with some interesting stuff she sent you back to NC, including lunar dust, a metal souvenir Tycho pin and a piece of cyberware. Which was nice to see, because the endng kinda fucked me up emotionally.

[@nadrahel]

And it's that moment that made me realise how terrifying the power of the blackwall can be :O

[@chasemcnab7610]

CDPR has shown us magical horrors beyond our reckoning but this is the moment that science fiction horror and magical horror blur. V unleashing the daemons of the black wall in hellish bolts of lightning like a possessed witch, burning people from the inside out in a twisted omage to raiders of the lost arc just fills you with an indescribable dread and horror. It makes you feel the shear power of the black wall AI’s and understand the hell that humanity has built for itself out of circuits and code. Not even the magical creatures of the witcher can compare to this.

[@MissionSilo]

Yeah I really can't figure how the cyber space and stuff could actually work. It acts more of an Astral space then a digital space

[@Mr_Feller]

Having played all of the endings in the base game and also watching the Cyberpunk Anime. I knew it wouldn't end well. But when this moment happened and we were able to wield BLACKWALL hacks to obliterate people- that's about as much of a happy ending as you can get. Everything after that was just falling action.

[@Csumbi]

never really realized how dangerous cyberpsace beyond the Black Wall actually was until this dlc. Even in the base game when you meet Alt, it seemed just another day in Night City, but after this dlc it re contextualized the whole scene, and i absolutely love it.

[@desisparta]

Love how twitchy V’s finger act which shows how overwhelming the Blackwall power is.

[@JayMatth]

That mission/end...I love it. It was so sad, but the most emotional mission for me in Cyberpunk 2077. So glad I decided to play the game once more with Phantom Liberty.

[@aragornelesar3862]

One of the best sequences in gaming ever. Amazing end to an amazing DLC. And man, the expression on her face at the start of the clip is heart-breaking, doesn't even say anything there but makes you feel so much emotion.

The genre rarely, if ever, has a happy ending. It's scifi noir. There are never happy endings, just different shades of gray.

[@sailorboy8314]

I was so torn between picking Reed or Songbird that I googled which choice was better and I kept seeing that picking Reed gave you better loot but it didn’t feel right to me. My V would never turn on Songbird. I thought I’d get a less cool ending and was so blown away by this.

Epic and Badass scene for me ,i was “oh ,wow ,oh, damn” the whole time playing this scene lol 😂😂

[@MenagerieOfMadness501]

Ngl i simped hard for songbird. It really felt like her and V were kindred spirits (I played Corpo so V and So Mi were both used and abused by the system). This scene was easily my favorite traversing the blackwall together and having the power of a cybergod. I think my V went into cyberpsychosis during this so it was like the point of no return

I haven’t gotten to this part yet… is this the feral AIs behind the Black Wall ripping into these soldiers, or is it the Black Wall itself reacting to Songbird tapping in by going after literally anyone and everyone that it can kill?

Jeez, hearing the militech agents scream as their fucking nervous system gets fried is terrifying

[@MaxRovensky]

The gameplay in this section is so much better than running away from the stupid instakill bot But the emotional damage inflicted by seeing her memories and having to mercy kill Songbird in Reed's path is much more effective I do like this ending for Songbird though, yeah she was clearly lying but she did what she had to do to survive On my first run i went with Reed cause I thought "well she's clearly evil, she's too nice and helpful, I know how stories work" and by the end of it I was screaming "no game stop she's not evil, I get it, I was wrong!" Expectations subverted hardcore

I played the DLC and got here on my first play through when it came out. When V unleashed the Blackwall, my console (Series X/S) was chugging and lagging like hell during the entire sequence. It was repeating every sound of screams and unknown horror excessively through the entire thing. I like to think I got the full Blackwall experience.

@@theanarchists the thing is that storywise, V is getting closer and closer to death. songbird leading v on like that the entire dlc is unforgivable and she deserves to go to nusa gitmo

[@Jamezontoast]

The Blackwall is also somewhat vengeance for all of the voiceless victims of corporations and colonialist states. In this moment, it truly felt like V became the harbinger of all of the NUSA's victims and their needless suffering

[@DragonZombie2000]

Lol imagine believing this

[@boomerpro87]

honestly never before have i played as a character that had access to a more..."unholy" power than the blackwall... it is genuinely more eldritch and demonic than most "demon" super powers games let you use. it doesnt even feel like you're just KILLING people, it feels like you are DAMNING THEM TO DIGI-HELL like you simply opened the gates to the underworld directly into their soul, unleashing horrid demons that burn them up from the inside out.
