* Result: V, sick of every miserable thing that the corporations have exploited, decides to forego survival in favor of becoming a legend of legends. They download the contents of their corrupted cyberdeck into Yorinobu's brain, ''giving the mother of all Arasaka back-doors to the Blackwall [=AIs=]''. Instantly, every single city dominated by Arasaka is thrown into a cybernetic hellscape as Yorinobu can only helplessly watch before being engramed and dragged beyond the Blackwall, causing Hanako to freak out and order V's death. Her team of elite cyber-runners can't even try to survive an overpowered AI, and V sends Hanako to her brother, and then collapses on the floor, finally out of life. The epilogue calls careen between sheer respect for the monumental defeat of Arasaka itself, and the unforgivable act of beginning the robot apocalypse.

[[WMG:Sending So Mi into space turns out to be the biggest Cordyceps-like move in history.]]
There's something strange about So Mi's storyline: why haven't the [=AIs=] interfered with their greatest potential sleeper agent? With all the agents they have within Night City, it would be kind of easy to lock down an isolated spaceport.
The ''real'' reason So Mi was allowed to leave was because she could become an internet connection for the Colonies, the few places left untouched by the [=AIs=] and thus capable of continuing corporate civilization after robots take over Earth. Having her act as a Typhoid Mary would ensure they could extend their reach to space instead of being bombarded and corralled on a single planet.
The [=AI=] within So Mi has been subtly guiding her to find the greatest means of escaping the [=NUSA=] while overtly tempting her to give in.
