The New Gods Explained

Rescuing Charles: Inspect the files on the whiteboard to find 'The End (5/8) - Robot Puppets'. Interact with the large life support device and then the computer to its right. Read all files on the PC desktop, especially the diagram on the far right, which is a clue for a code. Return to the far left of the lab and interact with the chain console control panel. Adjust the height of the colored lamps to match the diagram by pressing the buttons: purple/orange twice, yellow/green once, and blue twice. This will reveal stairs leading down. In the Secret Corridor, examine the courier clothes, then enter the doorway at the far left. In the secret room, examine the diary, then inspect the Beta Type Consciousness Transmission Device for 'The End (6/8) - The Research Information of Consciousness Transmission Device'. Speak with Charles, then grab the Crowbar from the far right of the room. Use the Crowbar on Charles's holding cell door to unlock the 'The Story of Rescuing the White Mustache' Trophy/Achievement.

Decision Time: You will be presented with two questions. The first answer has no impact. The second choice determines which of two Achievements you unlock. You cannot get both in a single playthrough without reloading a save file.

Turn it off: Choosing to 'Turn off the equipment' unlocks 'The Liberation' Trophy/Achievement and 'The End (7/8) - The History Between Edward and Luna' File. You can then skip to 'The Final Confrontation'.

Keep it on: Choosing to 'Leave the equipment on' unlocks 'The Benevolence' Trophy/Achievement. You will NOT be able to unlock one of the new endgame Files. You can then skip to 'The Final Confrontation'.

The Final Confrontation: Regardless of your choice, you will need to return to the secret room where you rescued Charles. There is no turning back once you head down the stairs.
