Eh, maybe in part two. But this was Johnny Silverhands story, V was just along for the ride. So of course they went the rebel path.
Thinking about it, they really went full "and here are all the kewl NPC's from the game!" route, which is something I specifically try to avoid in any RPG I am the GM of, since it takes the spotlight away from the players.

Of course I never could do them as much justice as they did and V was firmly the co-protagonist with Johnny.
