    There's no official word on it, but that's what Prof Pew told me.

    PP started a thread, in that is a link to the moral or karma system as it is better known on how to get good moral points. Look at the 2033 Wiki

    It involves doing good deeds, giving bullets, listening in to conversations, accessing hidden areas and avoid doing the wrong thing. So listen to conversations which will often give hints.

    4A developed the Karma system so it cannot be purposely figured out as you get in some games. Like in the Walking Dead how you play will determine the ending.

    :D

    Did you rush to finish the game?

    You should take your time and get as many enlightened achievements as possible. I myself spent hours just to get enlightened achievement from watching two guards talking.

    There are also places where you can get the enlightened achievements. Mostly hidden places in the surface and in metro in which many resist to get in because the "ghosts" control it and you're unable to use flashlight or night-vision or you're too damn scared to get in.

    You should also stay and listen to the people that will speak to you while you're just minding your own business. This will give you an enlightened achievement most of the times.

    WARNING SPOILER! DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVENT FINISHED THE GAME!

    Also once you travel with the little dark one, show and prove him that you've changed, do not kill Pavel. Do not kill the beast that is supposedly protecting it's children. Let the mutants assist you and damage it but once the beast is down and the other small mutants are eating it shoot at them and free the beast. It will leave and you will get your enlightened achievement.

    Do the above and you'll get the good ending. :)

    Also it's she, Professor pew is a female.

    Not true. I did not show mercy for Nazis nor for the Reds. Only saved some who seemed to be talking about this awesome "ranger" exterminating whole squads, haha.

    Maurice is not male, he is female and recently got engaged to a female.

    Yes she is a lesbian :twitch: :lol:

    Right I've finished the game, no idea if I got the good ending or bad ending. How do you tell which is which?

    For me this is how the game finished, so only read if you finished the game

    Baby Dark One left to save his family whilst in the metro-rail (At that point I thought I messed up the good ending.)

    At the end of the battle Arytom blew up the tunnels and wiped out the entire Red army. I had no idea what I had to do before when Baby Dark One entered the mind of the RED Leader (who killed his brother). I was just walking around openeing doors and listening in, so what that the right thing to do?

    The game ended with Anna telling the story of his Father (Arytom) which was unexpected and nice, since Arytom was seduced by Anna early in the game lol

    The Dark Ones also left (I guess Baby Dark One woke them up). But they promised to be back. Although why would they want to? As they proved mankind was savaged and only Arytom had a connection since he was adopted and now he is dead. I want to cry. Someone give me a tissue and Ranger HC if you're generous.

    Anyway if all the above is the good or bad ending can someone confirm it? (In Spoilers).

    Thanks

    So because I neglected to save the monster at the end I got the bad ending? I did everything else "right." What bullshit.

    You must be morally pure to have a chance at getting the good ending rerember to live in shame can be more punishing than death

    Good Day, Everyone!

    majnu, I got the same ending the first time around.
    It brought such a tear to my eye. :cry:

    Besides the moral points, Which in it self.
    I think their may be a few key trigger points in the game that help really choose the ending.
    Maybe not, It might take more then this.

    Near the end, before the Garden. The big face off at the end of Red square.
    You have to choose to save/leave Pavel from/with the Dead.
    The first time around, I left him with the Dead.

    The Second time around, I saved him.
    And after the cut scene. You place a filter into his Gas Mask.

    In both, The Little Dark one "A.K.A. Fred My name for him"
    He say's something like, I will remember this.
    But then something is added, when you save Pavel.
    Is this what you call forgiveness, For ones past sins, I understand now,
    and I will remember this!

    "Not a direct quote" But you get the idea.
    Then I got the other ending.

    I still have to play the game around a few times to find a few missing things.
    Like, I almost found all Artyom's notes. I can't seem to find a few.

    With Two endings, It brings up a question.

    If Artyom is saved at the end.
    Is Anna still Knock-Up? LOL

    Which brings up another question. Which I will try on another play through.

    What happens when you choose to not remove your Gas Mask in Contagion or Choose not to remove the Gas Mask and take the shot.

    Does this change things up? Does Anna die? Does Anna die by your shot?
    I will have to find out.

    Is their another ending or a change up of events.

    Miller said something near the end, Right before decontamination.
    Their is no one left alive to answer or corroborate our story.

    But I thought I knock out the traitor Lesnitsky and saved Pavel.
    Did I miss something? I wonder?

    Do I face Lesnitsky at the Depot, If I take the shot.

    Now that I think about it. I think I saw both Lesnitsky & Pavel holding
    Anna at the end of Contagion in differant play through.

    Did anyone else notice that as well?
    It was late, I may have been seeing things.
    But, I'm sure I saw Both of them holding Anna in different play through.

    - I explored and found secrete passages
    - I gave bullets to beggars
    - I saved Pavel
    - I saved the end Boss from the Nosalisis
    - But I did Kill a flying Demon before then and baby dark one said he isn't glowing red and was only trying to protect his baby
    - I did kill bandits
    - When there were options in the game to Kill or Knockout People I left them
    - I killed mostly all the enemy
    - I had a Hookah
    - I paid the lapdancers
    - I shot L dude when he had Anna instead of listening to him

    So why did I get the bad ending?
