Shin Megami Tensei V has an alignment system that will determine what type of ending you'll get once you are past a certain point. If you are interested in seeing all the endings without doing the arduous work of replaying the game from scratch again, it's best to keep your alignment neutral until almost the point of no return. 4 endings for CoC, 2 for CoV. The game will force you to make alignment based choices in the main game which tend to be high impact vs the low impact stuff in side quests. Almost always the choices are either law or chaos based EXCEPT for the first time you are asked to make one. The top choice in the 2 Angels' encounter is actually neutral. Demeter's choice is either law or neutral as well. Anything with 3 choices there's a neutral option but it's easier to balance the alignment score if you seesaw between law or chaos. CoC has 4 endings: law, chaos, neutral, true neutral. Part of true neutral's pre-req includes completing the Egyptians' quests so it's best to save true neutral for last in terms of ending order.

I set the order of these choices in chronological order, though 2 of the side quests can be done at any time. To prevent butter finger type accidents, I recommend making a pre-anything-♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ save at the last save point in Minato. The one right in front of the Tokyo Diet building with two Angels guarding the only path. Do NOT approach the Angels until you have made your save. If any quest giver is asking you to kill someone, those will affect you alignment. Avoid taking the Nekomata quest "A Wish for a Fish" on the second map as well as anything related to the Egyptians until you are comfortable making your final alignment choices. I am including two side quests in this guide because Idun is just too good to pass up. The point where your ending is locked in is after defeating Metatron at The Temple of Eternity. There is a door right after fight where Aogami will warn you to go back to the Leyline to make a save. After this you'll be given a multiple choice, where each selection is associated with a particular alignment. Top for law, middle for chaos, bottom for neutral. If you meet the requirements for the fourth ending, Nuwa will drop a big fat hint about an alternative.
