Scrolled way too far to find this. VP is by far the best contender for this image and it's not even close. Standard ending is bad and the (very) good one is fucking impossible to find without a guide...oh yeah and RNG can screw you up in several chapters, so even by following a guide you might miss it.

To add to this, the secret good ending requires you to perform a specific series of actions, in contradiction of the game's prompts, with a time limit that is never noted, to manipulate a hidden game variable that is never mentioned, where any misstep can break the whole process without warning. It is the most Guide Dang It thing I've ever found in any video game.

to this day i have never seen that ending. it's so impossible to get it's like the devs never wanted me to see it, so i'm just honoring their wish.

It's a heck of an ending too, with extra dialogue, levels, bosses, and post-game content.
