When he asked for a controlled humanity, it would appear that instead death and destruction spread out across the world. Either the Protagonist altered the course of history, or he simply saw a glimpse of the future. The ending may thus refer to two different possibilities. The pictures that roll by the screen consist mostly of nuclear detonations, desolate landscapes, sickness and death. This is one of the most metaphorical endings in the game.

As the pictures stop rushing by, the camera zooms out, to confirm that The Protagonist is indeed standing in total darkness. The protagonist himself acts, during this, as if his brain is receiving too much information. Suddenly, pictures begin to rush through his mind. Note: in Russian he says destroyed, not controlled. Humanity is corrupt, mankind must be controlled. You may achieve this ending if you have "terrible" reputation, less than 50000 RU on your person, and the leaders of both Duty and Freedom are still alive.Īs The Protagonist ask for a wish, he says: Shadow of Chernobyl Ending - Humanity Is Corrupt Another interpretation of this ending is that, as heroes are immortalised in the creation of statues and monuments to their name, the protagonist too has become immortal. In a somewhat anti-climactic fashion, he is quickly turned into a metal statue: something that is neither living nor dead.

The Protagonist says to the Wish granter: So you must have less than 50 000 RU, reputation between "terrible" and "excellent", and at least one faction leader must survive. This can be achieved, if you do not fulfill any of the other criteria. Shadow of Chernobyl Ending - I Want Immortality Since the Monolith is part of C-Consciousness, which wants to rule the world, becoming part of the Monolith is like becoming part of the C-Consciousness so, in a twisted sense, the wish is granted. Now with him being in an almost spastic state, the Monolith emits a small pulse, and the Protagonist disappears, suggesting that he has been consumed by the Monolith. All of a sudden, he is raised into the air, and blue light shoots from his arms and head. The Protagonist walks up to the Monolith and says:Īs he says this, he starts bending over in cramps. To achieve this ending you have to kill both faction leaders and have less than 50000 RU on you. Shadow of Chernobyl Ending - I Want To Rule The World It is ultimately the greed of The Protagonist that results in his downfall as he is crushed by gold (or so it seems to him). As he reaches out to catch these coins, the roof falls onto him, killing him. The Protagonist, affected by the Monolith´s spell, believes it is gold coins falling. This ending will replace all other endings.Īfter he says this, the bolts and screws of the roof structure start to loosen and fall to the ground. To achieve this ending, you simply have to have at least 50000 RU, making this a very common ending for first time players. Shadow of Chernobyl Ending - I Want To Be Rich As mentioned earlier, this is an example of the Wish Granter´s sick irony. The Zone has disappeared, but only for him. He stands still for a moment and lets his senses take over, only to open his eyes, which are devoid of irises or pupils, to discover that he has been blinded. You may achieve this ending if you have "excellent" reputation, less than 50000 Rubles on your person, and the leaders of both Duty and Freedom are still alive.Īs The Protagonist asks for a wish, he says:Ī blinding white light surrounds him, and he appears to be standing in a field of grass and trees. Shadow of Chernobyl Ending - I Want The Zone To Disappear The thing about the Wish Granter is that, although it fulfills your wish, it does so in an unexpected fashion, which always ends with the Protagonist being punished rather than rewarded sort of "corrupting" your wish. If the protagonist activates the Wish Granter, one of the 5 endings are shown, based on your actions throughout the course of your campaign. Here you find a large monolithic crystalline structure (about 5-7 meters high) the so-called Wish Granter, a legend in its own. When you enter the inner parts of the Sarcophagus, you reach the wondrous Reactor #4, which was the cause of the real Chernobyl disaster.
