What happens if you shoot Julianna?

▶

If you shoot Julianna, the game triggers the Break The Loop ending, where Colt needs to follow through on the original plan and kill Juliana and himself to end everything once and for all, by jumping off the side of the platform and committing suicide, thus eliminating himself, the final Visionary, and breaking the loop. This action leads to a conclusive ending, but the game also offers alternative paths and endings depending on the player’s choices, making the gameplay experience rich and varied.
