Comment te dire adieu
Comment te dire adieu is an ending in NEEDY STREAMER OVERLOAD, and is one of two endings not represented by any ending slot on the Main Menu, the other being Happy End World. More particularly, it is not sequentially listed with all the other endings in the game. Instead, it is represented by a hidden Data icon, particularly the Data0 file. The player will receive an achievement of the same name after going through this ending.
Requirement
To achieve this ending, the player must obtain all other required endings. To know which endings are required, the player can check if the ending has a square icon on the Main Menu screen. Happy End World, shown with a question mark icon, is the only ending that is not required for obtaining Comment te dire adieu. Therefore, the player can track their progress toward this ending by checking if all their square ending slots have been filled in with white.
Once these conditions have been met, a new save slot, titled "Data0," will appear on the Main Menu. Clicking on this save slot will prompt the player with a confirmation window. Selecting "OK" will start the ending.
Synopsis

SPOILER WARNING

When clicking on Data0, the game asks the player to confirm their choice, stating that they cannot "return." Once the player clicks "OK," the ending begins. All dialogue takes place on JINE.
On Day 1, Ame-chan messages P-chan. She tells them to "watch me closely, P-chan" and begins playing through the game without any player input; the player can only spectate as Ame chooses every in-game action for herself. On Day 3, she apologizes to P-chan and clarifies she had "wanted to try doing it by myself for once." On Day 6, Ame tells P-chan that she feels as though she is getting into the proper mindset of a streamer. On Day 9, she tells P-chan that she feels as though her current follower count is "perfect," and that she has the most fun when at said follower count. At this stage in Ame's automatic playthrough, she has 14,989 followers. On Day 12, Ame tells P-chan that her initial worries are fading, as she now perceives it to be working out for her. On Day 14, she tells P-chan that out of every route she could have taken, she feels as though her current route is "more correct." On Day 16, she says that there's a side of herself she doesn't know of yet, and she wishes to know it better. On Day 18, she says she feels as though she's entered the "endgame," and says that it's "time for me to..." before cutting herself off. On Day 20, she exclaims she managed to make "things work out all by myself," and that she doesn't need P-chan "after all." On Day 22, she tells P-chan she will "find a new future." On Day 30, she leaves her final messages to P-chan; she thanks them for everything, and claims that she will pursue her own future on her own accord, and bids a seemingly permanent goodbye to P-chan. Ame is then seen in her webcam, standing up and walking away from the computer.
In this state, the player is finally free to exert control on the desktop. No typical actions can be selected, and the only thing left to do is to read a text file titled "secret.txt". This text file has always been visible within any prior usual playthrough, and this is the first and only time that the game will allow the player to open it. When opened, secret.txt contains text written by Ame, denoting how much she loves P-chan, that they are her favorite person and her producer, how they tell her what to do and how they support her emotionally and mentally. The next lines of text then denote how Ame feels about the "current P-chan," stating how she doesn't want to have a P-chan that is "only being nice to me," and states she will make a "better P-chan [...] with the goal of making marriage material next." She then exclaims how she can't wait to live a new life being happily married. Attached to the text file is a crude drawing of KAngel and Ame holding hands, surrounded by hearts, candy, flowers, stars, and butterflies, with a big ribbon depicted above the two of them, and an orange cat depicted standing in-between them.
The game will forever remain in this state, leaving the player no choice but to restart the game if they wish to continue playing. The ending has no GAME OVER screen, and there is no ending pop-up.

Trivia
- The ending's name, "Comment te dire adieu," is a French phrase which translates into "How to say goodbye to you" in English. It is a reference to the 2001 adult visual novel, "さよならを教えて～Comment te Dire Adieu～" ("Teach Me Goodbye: How to Say Goodbye to You").
- Ame receives 999 followers after her first stream instead of receiving 1,000 followers like she normally does.
- Outside of this ending, when the player tries to access secret.txt, Ame's webcam window will immediately move and try to block it.
- This is the only ending with no ending pop-up nor a game over screen.
- Interestingly, it shares this similarity with
SMT, an achievement commonly mistaken for an ending. Unlike SMT however, this has its own ending flag.
- Interestingly, it shares this similarity with
- The achievement icon shows a trailing cursor.
- Internally, this ending is referred to as
Ending_Completed. - With the interpretation of P-chan being just a figment of Ame's imagination, it can explain some things that can be found in the game and endings differently. For example, the Desktop belongs to Ame instead of P-chan, which explains why when she killed herself in the
DARK ANGEL ending, there is blood on the Desktop screen, or the fact that when she stabbed the desktop screen, it is her desktop that is broken and that Ame is seen in the reflection. - In the secret.txt drawing, KAngel's wig is not accurately depicted. If it were to be accurate, KAngel would have short blonde hair instead of long blonde twin tails, she would have three differently colored bows on her right bang instead of two pink bows on her twin tails, and she is missing her light blue and pink DNA strands.
Notes
- ↑ This is the only ending to have no sequential slot at the bottom of the main menu. Like Happy End World, it is not displayed as a square icon, but unlike Happy End World, it is not sequentially listed either. Instead, it is listed as the Data0 file. Though, for practical purposes, players may count it as the "26th" ending or the true/final ending.
