I remember playing Fallout 3 for the first time and getting to the end with Fawkes as my companion, and getting extremely pissed that he refused going into project purity, no one needed to be sacrificed, he could simply turn it on with zero issues to himself, he knew that, he even offered to go into heavy radiation before to spare the player the extreme radiation.
But nope, at the end suddenly the player needed to die, the player who helped set him free.
Yeah, thanks for that...
Never understood why the player was shunned.
I had a really similar experience playing cyberpunk weirdly. Like, you think you're being clever by doing something that logically should save you based on the established rules of the world, then the writers decide to pull the rug out right at the end and say "nope, sorry we've got a thematic ending in mind and you have to die no matter what". Really left a sour taste in my mouth.
There are endings in cyberpunk where V survives.
In the original game? I played before the DLC
Yep, there are two endings I know of for sure where V survives. I believe they added another V survives ending after the Phantom Liberty DLC. They all might not be the happiest of endings but V lives.
