You missed a talking about a unique interaction for the Nomad lifepath. When stealing the relic with Johnny on it, there is an Iguana to the left of the elevator. If you approach it V and Jackie will have a conversation about whether on not THIS Iguana is the one they smuggled into NC.

Corpo is the best imo. It has the strongest arc, you're actually already close to Jackie instead of just meeting him & it has the best dialogue options.

What makes the Nomad lifepath the best is when you choose to join the Aldecaldos after romancing Panam. Your story basically comes around full circle.

Long story short.... No it doesn't matter much. But Corpo probably has some of the most extra dialogue.

Corpo has the best dialouge options, but honestly I wish they'd give you diffeent start of the game vehicles and weapons, your clothes do change but in the end it really doesn't make a difference

My first completed playthrough was Corpo but got the "happy" Nomad ending leaving Night City with Panam and it felt like such a satisfying way to end the game. Starting out as a Corpo enjoying all the luxury, then in the end just leaving it all behind to live a more free and simple life with the nomads.

Ideally the lifepath should effect how "happy" your chosen ending is CorpoV should get an option to return to work as a special operative. This is the only way to remain with Goro if that's important to you NomadV should be able to rally the Aldacaldos w/o completing Panam's entire quest line though it goes badly if you do SteeetKidV should.enjoy becoming Prince of the Afterlife. Your meeting is with bunch of rookies and V is putting together their own version of The Heist

Love the Nomad path along with the Nomad ending. You begin the game entering Night City for the first time and end the game leaving Night City for the last time. Full circle.

I like the StreetKid life path more. I like the idea of my V trying to become the best in Night City. However, after the horrible job and Jackie dying, V is totally lost and feels like they don’t wanna be in the top now since they know how horrible the life of a merc is now and just wants to leave

I was kind of hoping that Act 1 would have been unique to your life path.

There's a really great one if you're a Nomad. When you do the gig Guinnea Pigs stealthily, and by talking to the man at the desk first. If you then do the gig Olive Branch, and then proceed to talk to the corpo in the trunk, you can ask if he knows the woman from Guinnea Pigs, and feel a little less remorseful about handing him over to the Tyger Claws. I loved that little detail, but I wish there was more for a Nomad as it is my favourite life path.

Streetkid has a few of them and they’re actually really funny like V pretending to be a drug dealer to get to the Soviet fixer, or V saying they’re an XBD star talent scout to get into the club for Dino . Streetkid getting Wakako to help them by mentioning her son so there’s more beyond the diner one

The nomad side mission where the girl is after your car actually sits really well with the character. You're dying or you're not going to be leaving NC any time soon, so it almost feels like passing the torch to a new generation.

Corpo has just been the best story so far for me, how you are able to twist so many corpo arms to get a better deal and get into places much easier lol. Plus the whole aspect with Johnny just seems a lot more organic since you started off as a Corpo as opposed to the other choices.

Doing the Corpo bow to Hanako and watching Johnny facepalming is priceless...

I like Nomad, I am fairly sure it's the only one where you can specifically tell Meredith Stout that Gilchrist is the mole in the 'Pickup' mission... (dependant on how the mission plays out).

I can think of at least five good reasons to choose either Corpo or Nomad (StreetKid would have been better for second playthroughs with advanced knowledge). But if lifepaths had exclusive content, people would condemn CDPR for locking them out of content in the full experience. Each lifepath has major contributions to the themes of the game. Corpos in particular lose "their" wealth to illustrate a major point: your prosperity belongs to your employer, and they will revoke it the minute it inconveniences them.

I want to see ACTUAL corpo jobs. Even if the corporation is a new one we never heard of, something small. Just being able to climb the corporate ladder, dirty tricks, etc. Night City is huge and I would welcome playing as other people. As cool as V is, there's so many more opportunities out there, from Maxtac to Trauma team to Maelstrom smuggler.

To answer the question: the choices don’t have many long term effects. You get a unique prologue, and for the rest of the game you’ll get dialogue options relating to your background. They change how V’s personality feels a little, but V is pretty much always going to be snarky, loyal, and ballsy. I went with Nomad for my first run through and Corpo for my second. With the first, he felt unsurprisingly like a wanderer. He’d interject conversations with bits and pieces of nomad trivia or stuff like that. Admittedly I don’t remember much. With corpo, he’s almost kinda like Jack Reacher from the Jack reacher movies. It only applies when he’s talking to corporate people, but those options were always pretty neat. He knew the game they were playing and would just tell them how they were doing it or what they wanted. He speaks much more confidently with those options, occasionally being more aggressive as well. It’s a nice difference from his usually dry responses to stuff.

DAO had a good use of the origin system and its influence was felt relatively throughout the game when characters address you or the dialogue options you had. Star Wars The Old Republic also from bioware, took it way further where the origin you pick (bounty hunter, sith, jedi etc) influences your whole story arc, voice, companions, ship and personality. All 8 origins feel different and separate from the others... Until you do the expansion where everything is streamlined into one path

I loved the streetkid flavor during the missions. Our dude knows all the players.

I am halfway through my initial play through and I chose Corpo. I feel that it’s a fine choice, I’m not into 2 hour prologues. It was the only choice that seemed to fit my idea for an InT 20 and Tech 20 build. I’ve gotten a bunch of well flavored dialogue options so far, so I’m happy!

I played like nomad and corpo... I have to say that I like nomad much more - I really like the options of nomad dialogs and I feel like it's more fillfull... it's my feeling :) and then when Panam and her family take you like their own... so nice and I love that nomad's ending choice with nomad V.

For me without a doubt once a corpo always a corpo I just love that aesthetic and immersive the potential of how Arasaka could re recruit V and him replacing Smasher as Arasaka main operative

As a Nomad you can critique Jackie's motorcycle before the drone pickup mission and he will later upgrade it from dual exhaust to quad exhaust.

I know there's a mod which gives you little boosts depending on your background. Corpo gives you slightly better quickhacking stats, Nomad gives you better crafting results or something and Streetkid improves your Cool tree or.. I can't remember specifics, but it does help add a bit more purpose to the backgrounds outside of just some dialogue and a quest

It might sound dumb but honestly I feel like each life path should of had their own unique main story. Like act 2 is already split 3 ways(with each one representing each life path). And same with the endings

It mostly adds a little flavor to the game and can make your story feel more like a complete arc. I think Nomad in particular goes really well if you end up romancing Panam and choosing the Nomad ending. It becomes the story of V losing his clan and being accepted into another one, finding love along the way, but with only a short time left to enjoy it.

I picked the corpo path for my first playthrough, and with high technical ability and intelligence it made for interesting interactions. Plus it made Johnny's beef with Arasaka a bit more personal for V too. And Jackie...[insert meme of 'look at how they massacred by boy'] I always let Takemura die, too. Since he never truly is an ally--just a corpo dog with mutual interests for a while. But after he gets what he wants, he couldn't care less about what happens to you.

Corpo all the way - not only are there a whole bunch of amazing corpo-specific dialogue options, there's also the special side quest related to your life path which I don't believe any of the other life paths ever end up getting? It also turns the game into a full revenge arc like other commenters have said.

I have been watching youre videos for about a month give or take , and I have to say you're videos are awesome very well spoken and well edited, i hope you keep making more.

Corpo is definitely the best feeling story, but I think Nomad has the best additional rewards. Pushing the prophet quest early, the tuned arch that looks good, the car that's fairly decent for badlands roaming. I definitely will always do new playthroughs with one of those two options.

I really get the feeling Life paths where originally going to have a bigger impact but was cut back when Keno signed up, similar to Jackie was going to have a bigger impact before the rewrites.

One thing that really sucks is that the life paths themselves don't really justify another playthrough by themselves. I enjoyed all the life paths I just hope in the next game it's a bit more fleshed out.

Coming from someone who has played through all the life paths I think you get the most out of street kid there are 12 interactions each you can have with every gang through out the city and with street kid you have optional dialogue and there not just neat little voice lines either you can avoid violence most of the time one of my favourite examples of this is getting the scavs to back down from attacking the aldacardos

Just wanted to say that I've been following your channel for just over a year now. I'm a huge mass effect fan (how I found your channel actually) and it's great to see you branching out into so many other RPG games. Keep it up! Enjoying your channel a lot!!

Forgot to mention the Corpo quest gives an Iconic weapon - a tech pistol!

Basically, it doesn't matter that much, but it adds nice RP elements and dialogue options to make different playthroughs feel different. I like nomad best personally because I like the "ask Panam for help" ending best and it works well with that, but if you want a different story for your character e.g. a "get revenge on the corps who wronged you" story for a corpo, or a kinda tragic rags to riches story for a streetkid, then they're great paths to take too.

Figure I should write this while it can still be seen lol but I just found the channel and its top tier for Cyberpunk information, great format.

There is a street kid interaction during an aldecaldos side quest, where some of the members are trying to do an arms deal with either scavs or maelstrom, and as street kid you can talk the scavs out of the conflict entirely with a pretty cool dialogue choice

I think the life paths also line up pretty well with three of the endings. Nomad being very obvious with the Aldecaldos, corpo going with Arasaka and Takemura, and street kid becoming a legend of Night City. Beyond that, I definitely appreciate the dialogue differences, the different outcomes in certain jobs, and the unique jobs you get. You're right, definitely reminiscent of Mass Effect. However, I think it does a little more than Mass Effect did with the military service and background. Those are more for roleplay than anything else, whereas this has more in-game options.

My two favorite unique Nomad dialog options are: being able to tell Stroud that it was indeed Abernathy that leaked the convoy info. And talking to the other Nomad chilling in the Kabuki market (right out front that one ripperdoc), and being able to get him to tell you about the cop hiding out in the apartment during one of Regina's side gigs, by chatting with him "Nomad to Nomad."

There's another major 'shortcut' for the corpo path when talking to Woodman. Instead of having to navigate the 'speech maze', there is a corpo dialogue option that basically gets him to spill his guts right off the bat.

I really would like if they expanded things more, but I swear there are hidden or subtle things with the life paths not talked about. Like how Streetkid gets discounts in the shops compared to Corpo or Nomad. Where Nomad gets more access to vehicle related things, even if some are just cosmetic, and Corpo had easier and faster access to Military-Grade tech than the other life choices.

One thing that would have been really fun to see is your life-path choice had a potential effect on the endings. Like if we consider how each of the three 'main' endings clearly tie to one of the lifepaths (The Sun-Streetkid, The Star-Nomad and The Devil-Corpo), I think it would have been cool if you got an expanded or additional options for your ending if you chose one that corresponds to your lifepath. Like I've always loved how The Star ending is a perfect bookend to the Nomad prologue, with V entering Night City having lost everything including their family, and then leaving Night City as part of a new family. Heck, both times they're even smuggling a stolen lizard!

There is the slim possibility that they could add more lifepath specific dialogue choices in Phantom Liberty. Here’s hoping. Also my first play through was as a corpo and I feel like that the bar for what lifepaths are way too high.

well seeing as the 3 "V returns to their body" endings are analogues for each life path... (there's one where you ride off as a free nomad, one where you're the king of the underbelly of NC, and one where you live life out as part of the corpo machine)

Third playthrough I started out as a Corpo and ended up as a Nomad. Loved the hidden knowledge I could stun people with. Fourth playthrough I'm a Nomad seduced by the glitz and glamour of the Corpo life. But role-playing as a caring person so some gradual descent into corruption has to happen there. They may do rigid lifepaths for the sequel, but this dynamic approach is still great for replayability.

2 things that would have made this game so much better. First, more time in your life path so it feels like your decision mattered. Plus more time with Jackie and T-Bug so we have time to connect and grieve their loss. Not spoiling their deaths in the trailers would have helped too.

I use the lifepaths to roleplay how I build my character and react in dialogues. I do wish it had more actual impact on the game though.

I started as Nomad because I wanted to be a badass outlaw/ cowboy revolver user. Then I did streetkid and liked it because when we get David's jacket, there is actual meaning when Falco says we are similar to David. I just started Corpo but as one of the comments mentioned, we go on a revenge quest and I feel like we bond with Silverhand a bit more because we both hate Arasaka on this life choice. I'm still on the beginning with Corpo playthrough but yeah, it really doesn't matter what you pick, only offers dialog options and a few life choice specific quests.

I like starting as a corpo and getting the Nomad ending. It feels special when someone who just tries to avoid backstabs constantly and is perpetualy guided by greed suddenly feels freedom from all of those things and embraces the uncertainty of it

Nomad is the only life path that feels like it was purposeful, that other two feel very rushed and tacked on. The Nomad has you doing more stuff, you get some actual action, and feels like it recalls more of that life path in the jobs you do with Jackie. When you do the Maelstrom job to get the spider-bot, you can find information on a laptop that exposes who the mole in Militech is, and you can let Meredith know. It also references the iguana in Yorinobu's apartment, as you were transporting one earlier. It's the only one that has the feeling of fitting with the other jobs. Nomad is the only job that also has an ending that fits with that lifepath. You can find a new nomad family, and ride off into the sunset with Panam. While there is a sort of corporate ending in The Devil path, there isn't really a Street Kid ending where they become a fixer or something. Maybe you could argue the Rogue ending fits that, but not sure it feels as fleshed out. Really would have been nice if the Street Kid and Corpo had more going on in the start. Especially the Corpo, which feels very bland in comparison to the Nomad.

I think it would be nice if you would get more gigs or side quests in certain areas depending on your life path. Like what if during the crimes where someone is being threatened there would be different outcomes whether you save the person or not, and perhaps if they're a fellow Corpo/Street Kid/Nomad.

The lifepaths honestly just make things for my own stories feel better. A nomad finding his clan with the aldercados, a streetkid leaving the city behind, a nomad finding himself on top of the big city, a corpo being ousted from corporate but still ruling the city on his own terms etc. these are narratives I make myself vs the game making them for me

I played Streetkid first, but I personally love how I played my second play through as a corpo, more dialogue, completing gigs and making a name in Night city, revenge on arasaka for both me and Johnny, then being free with the nomads and my baby girl panam

I thought it was fine. Gave some "flavor" to the choice you made. Dragon Age Origins and Witcher 2 both have huge variations based on decisions but that also means the developers spent a lot of time and energy building huge sections of game that most players (those who don't play the game more than once) will never see.

Nomad is the best starting and makes more sense for all story

I had no idea you could talk your way into the parade float hangars. Multiple playthoughs with corpos and I never saw the oppurtunity. So many secrets in this game.

Nice commentary :) just did my second play and in cyberpunk so at least I know what I'll be expecting when I try nomad mode

I could imagine CDPR implementing some more backstory-specific stuff in the, lets call it "post game DLC", but considering the scope of what's in the game right now I'm actually glad they didn't do too much with it in the base game, distracting them from making the main story as good as it is.

One of the giant mistakes of this game was not to give quests to our choice of body, street or nomad, it makes no difference to our choices

I preferred Corpo with the full Arasaka storyline (did both final decisions to see them), and I include saving Goro because by then we are pretty good buds. I really liked the Streetkid path because there was so much more time and backstory with Jackie, and I chose Don't Fear The Reaper for my ending to become King of the Afterlife. Jackie would be so proud. I ran a Nomad play, but tbh I just didn't gel with them as much as everyone else seems to.

- I went Corpo, I think its pretty good. I feel like the story arc makes a lot of sense when you are corpo and you can relate to johnnys issues with them.

For me, it isn't about being a generic corpo that makes that lifepath my favorite. It's specifically being in corporate counterintelligence. I'm sure the other paths are nice, but Dexter choosing the merc who is former Arasaka counterintel to do a raid on Arasaka has always made the most sense. It's Dex's first gig after a 2 year hiatus, and while T-Bug is solid, he could have found someone else for this job to work with her, but it just so happens she already knew the perfect specimen for such a niche role. Knowledge and experience in infiltration, as well as how Arasaka specifically deals with infiltration attempts, might be worth a dozen skilled streetkids and nomads. It's not about being better in the absolute sense, just that this is perfect role specialization. The other paths may be better in other parts of the game, but The Heist is the foundation of the entire story.

They actually do in my opinion.. see, all the outcomes of any decisions u make in this game r all very subtle, rhe game doesn’t ever choose a right or wrong decision, none of the things u do majorly changes the world, but it does change ur character n the other characters in game, and it changes the way ur play through plays out in very subtle ways .. rhere r many subtle things throughout the game that r specific to ur life path, specific interactions or choices that can only be made if u chose a certain life path.. I kinda love the way they want about decision making in this game, unlike most other rpgs where the right n wrong choices r very obvious and have major obvious consequences

Corpo to nomad ending is the best in my opinion. You start out extremely stressed and hating your life to have it all taken away to building yourself back up but being free and manifest that freedom with the nomads. It’s like accepting that there are greater things to life than money

I've mainly liked Nomad for the "family" kind of dialog. But Corpo has so much more to give. One being it has the fastest intro.

Still waiting for you to do a video about how Johnny's flashbacks/ memories are mostly not what REALLY happened. That Blackhand was the one who run the operation against Arasaka and the one who ACTUALLY fought Smasher since Johnny was instantly killed and NEVER even made it to the top of the tower.

Lifepath is still the biggest lie in cyberpunk 2077. Its good that Cyberpunk had fixes but its shoudnt be praised because of many lies like lifepaths

11:55 i was just thinking about this game before you said it. i played through that game so many times BECAUSE it was so varied. One of my favorite games for that reason and really what I'm hoping for for whenever we get a cyberpunk sequel.

Some good points already in the comments, I would have liked to have seen a little more subtle variety in place AFTER the lifepath - Stuff like nods to the particular lifepath in V's apartment, and even a smallhandful of perks pre-selected to show V's skillset before the montage.

This is what made me pissed at this game. They told us it mattered, bugs aside. This is what made me dislike this game the most once I beat it. Was disappointed

My favorite is Nomad, I love the dialogue you can have with Panam & the Aldacaldos

Based on how I created my v and the clothing I love to use on her, street kid is the most fitting, especially when you get that admittedly very sweet looking jacket from the kirk quest in act 2

Great video but you did miss a few details like lifepath specific weapons and vehicles. One example would be when you meet up with Jackie outside of maelstrom he will be on his bike. If your a nomad with a high enough technical ability level you get a dialogue about some changes he could make to his bike. Later on after the Heros side quest you get his bike only to find that he took your advice and tuned it up. The bike then has alternate visual parts and is much nicer to ride then the normal varient.

I personally love Corpo origin the most due to V having a understanding of Corpo life so he has plenty of dialogue that is Corpo related for acting professional, understanding why siding with Corpo is bad, or just being a Corpo jerk. This allowed me to roleplay as a V who has fully understand why Corpo life is bad and V never wants to return to that life. Also, if V is from Corpo origins then Falco will saying that V and David are very similar due to their origins being Corpo related (V being from Corpo job like and David being a student being educated for Corpo life) and how they rise up in fame after their fall from Corpo life.

My favourite is the Nomad lifepath. There is a Gig given by Regina, involving the last honest cop in NC. As a Nomad, you can convince her to join the Aldecados annd latter you can find her at the camp. Some fixers also metion you are a Nomad when they first contact you, not only Dakota Smith.

In a way it effects the overall story too. With Corpo, it's a revenge plot to take down the corp that tossed you in the trash so easily. For Nomads, they can find their new better nomad family among the Aldecados. But street kids, that's the true story, You and Jackie, just 2 chooms with dreams of being legends! That's Night City baby!

I did the don’t fear the reaper as nomad V in my first run, friend told me what dialogue to choose at the end of chippin’ in to have a much more fun ending, like the idea nomad V wanting to make a name for himself and doing it all the way through and ofc doing it for jackie.

Hey big Dan just wanted to drop by and let you know...the game DLc ain't out yet but I played on my Xbox and realized some corpo dialogue regarding way more missions after update 1.6 , I recorded them on my box because I did already many playthroughs but this caught me off guard with talking to an NPC but yet also a mission based. I think CD project definitely adding in more stuff that requires you to go thru the game again and see if for what it is. Thanks to Edgerunners! It brought back the hype of the game. Anyways I didn't know whether to email or comment this so I'll do both cause idk 😐

I just got cyberpunk 2077 and played for the first time yesterday and Nomad is the first path I choose. Liking it so far, not tried the others yet. Also, great video I have liked and subbed.

One more interaction that life path changes things. The cops beating down a corpo in an alley, you can talk them out of killing the guy. Talking to the cops has different dialogue per life path. One of the cops has a niece that was drugged in a club and bad things happened to her, and they are out to get revenge. Corpo dialogue you can talk the cops out of killing the guy. Street Kid you can talking the cops out of it, and get that the corpo does that sort of thing often.

I love the idea of Corpo V getting unceremoniously kicked from his job, then one day coming back with the “don’t fear the reaper” ending and wreaking havoc to your old employer.

This reminds me of the Lingos available in the Shadowrun Returns games. You know the right lingo when talking to an npc, you can solve a quest in a different way.

I love the street kids life path, because I am from Atlanta. I love the nomad life path, because I think it fits with the best normal ending for V with the aldecaldos. I love the corpo, because it feels the most natural with all the dialogue choices in game. I am played a lot and I usually go with the corpo life path.

Nomad seems to give you the most, some being the iguana and the car from the beginning. I haven't noticed anything that neat coming from the other lifepaths.

Corpo is fun for the quests and extra options and with an int build gets V rich quick. I'll usually pick Nomad for roleplaying and the free Gelena rattler, that and the Gecko are my favorite cars

Lol just found out about the guard breakdown, wish I knew that before driving truck in and slice every moving thing

as someone who usually goes the corpo route, you just gave me one path to take to screw with abernathy, thank you.

I hope in future updates they include more with the life paths to be more involved with the story. Have each lifepath have their own pros and cons

Corpo also can use Yorinobu and Evelyn's relationship as a scare tactic when you go to clouds, honestly they should have fleshed out Nomad and Streetkid as much as they did Corpo would have made choosing which one to pick after the first play throughs more challenging and gave more options during the game to keep it fresh, I am sure mods will be able to do that. It is how Skyrim stayed great.

You can stop that robbery with a corpo interaction to

Picking a life path changes your perspective on V. It changes whether you think V wants to be the greatest edge runner because they grew up in night city they know the life and how living in night city absolutely sucks and how you want to be remembered forever and not just another worthless citizen. You could be plain as a nomad or a Corpo V as you were kicked out of your previous lifestyle, it might change how you view, and how you play the game like for example, as a nomad, you might be really strong and very good with technology, technically wise, or as a former Arasaka employee, you might have high Cyberware and really focus on stealth, smart weapons and hacking as you might see your V as a more non-confrontational more softer but and also just a more smarter person in general. Or playing as a Strke kid you know the hassle of life and you know what it takes to survive the night city until that might be a life path where you are a master of all things as logically speaking if you were foreign tonight city, you weren’t necessarily know what you need to do to survive as being a Street kid, you know that you can’t necessarily rely on one thing, so you spec into everything . But the different life path equals a new whole experience for each player and it really changes on how you CV has a character where do you play as a quart both for your very first time and you kind of wanna go by the greedy lifestyle or you might go buy a nomad as a tough on kill ball machine or you might play as a street kid a person who understands the hustle in the grind that takes to be a legend in Night City. But this also changes your ending. Maybe your street kid who just wants to be free of night city or nomad who misses their freedom or a Corpo who wants a life outside of business and so you then go to the Aldacadoes ending. Maybe you are a Corvo who wants to stick it to Arasaka as after all you’ve done, you ended up being kicked out until you want to bring your judgment straight to them or your nomad who just hates corporations or you’re just a Street Kid who knows the evil in the corruption of corporations and you just want to go down as a legend, and so you then pick the ending where you attack Arasaka with the rogue. Or maybe you are you a Arasaka Corpo who wants to get back into the good graces of Arasaka, by sucking back up to them, and helping Hanako, you might be a nomad who really has no idea what do you except for folding to Arasaka, or are you just might be a Street Kid who gave up on their aspirations of being a legendary edge runner and see the only way of continuing to live by siding with Arasaka. And for the don’t fear, the reaper ending, you might be angry Ex Corpo who wants their revenge you might be a nomad who is tired of corporations getting their way or you might be a V who knows that the only way that they can go down as the best edge runner of all time is by doing a suicide route and taking on Arasaka all by themselves, not willing to try to get their friends hurt as well. Or finally you might be a who just gave up from being a quart bowl from being a nomad order from being an edge runner, and knows that they don’t have too much to live for anyways as their feet is inevitable, and instead of trying to do something or at least, trying to with their best life with the remaining time they have they just end it short not thinking about how we will fact other people that loved them or people that were friends to them as they were going through their own problem and struggling but he just never thought about other people not being selfish on purpose, but they just were and then V, as of taking their own life on their own accord, which in some ways is respectable as it’s scary to see yourself slowly dying or it’s just too minor. Racking to give up your wife so another person who lived 50 years before you could just continue to live their life fun and it’s not like even asked for this not with your knowledge before hand just happened. But no matter what ending you get you still have to come to terms that V ends up dying whether you like it or not. Because if he ends up dying, either by through ever been stored in Makoshi and one day being freed from it whether it’s dying with your friends and family at your side or whether it’s dying by your own hands or fighting back against Arasaka, and proving yourself to be a legend or you end up surviving the fight against Arasaka and you were just the most legendary edge runner of all times, but you still have to grapple with the fact that not even within a year you’re still going to die. Or a rocker boy takes over V’s body whether we wanted that to happen or whether V try to stop Johnny from doing it, but Johnny still did it. And this proves a point that no matter what night city is everything opposite from a city of dreams everyone who’s in there for long enough and the dying because of the city and there’s only a few people who get lucky because V helped them out.

I wish each life path would have had its own unique main storyline. That way the game would have had even more replay ability.

the Nomad story can loot a 5.50 % street cred multiplier torso from the garage locker at the end of The Nomad mission took alot of reloads but a green worn - out ballistic vest finally appeared

For 4:02 your boss actually dies ( most likely killed by Abernathy ) you can see his memorial at the columbarium

I fully agree there should be more to the life paths. There should be more quest in references to your back story.

Just finished my 3rd play and went streetkid all 3 and played mostly the same other than how my skills and missions get done. Stealth is so satisfying

I like to setup my lifepath with the endings of the game. I choose nomad when I want to get the ending with Panam. Streetkid when I want to do the (Dont Fear) The Reaper. Corpo for any ending.
