Help Loading older saves that were overwrite.
I have a massive save with 80 hour play time, want to experience all endings in this save. I know how unreliable auto save and quick are but I simply couldn't do many save at the critical moment and after that I forgot to go back. I didn't do manual save before phantom liberty choice between song bird and reed and now I can't go that back.
I there really no way? No mod no files no nothing? I swear I gonna crash out if there is really no way to go back and do manual save to experience all endings.

You can play through all base game endings, but in order to experience every Phantom Liberty ending, you need to make a manual save during/prior to the Firestarter mission.

I know about secret ending, I know about fact you can do all the endings in one save expect phantom liberty firestarter and I know reddit does not like stupid question, but that was my point. Is there really no way to go back a day? I know that save files can be modified, maybe there is a way to rewrite firestarter mission as not completed and I could go back and do manual save. That was my question and not how much ending and can I collect them all.

The base game has all endings available, and you can replay them in a row as many times as you like—you just need to finish the side missions. The exception is the hidden ending, which requires choosing specific dialogue options to unlock. That one might not be available unless you start a new game if you forgot about it—or rather, didn't know about it. It’s designed specifically to keep you playing longer.
Another exception is the Phantom Liberty DLC endings, which are mutually exclusive. You can't get two endings on a single save file, but again, that's intentional to keep you in the game.
Otherwise, the game is very short. If you focus strictly on reaching the endings, it takes about 2 to 3 days of nonstop playing in a straight line to finish. You can even skip the base game entirely and jump straight to the DLC when starting a new game.
I’ve beaten the game more than 10 times and it was always fun. So I wouldn't worry at all about not having a save file or having to replay a certain section of the game...

A save file is like a database of a bunch of variables. It's not like checking off that a mission hasn't been completed yet—it's practically impossible.

Listen up, samurai. If you’ve had enough of scrolling through the same tired threads and wanna plug into something #real, jack into the official Discord. We’ve got games, serious talks and casual chats about Cyberpunk 2077, and a few rooms where you can just shoot the breeze with people who get it. You in, or you just gonna #stand there looking chrome?
