Nomad is the way

[EJR]

I prefer the Nomad and Corpo lifepaths, and they are both roughly equal when it comes to my taste. Though I would choose Corpo for stealth and hacking builds while Nomad I do with loud and action builds. The Streetkid one just sucks to me, I no joke had to do it three times because it kept boring me, and when I finally did get past the prologue and finish the heist I made a new character and redid the Corpo. Streetkid doesn't leave a good taste in my mouth.

Ironically, I am pretty sure the Streetkid is the canon one though I don't have any real confirmation about it.

Depends on the player.

I play all 3 paths, to have different playstyles.

my 'main V' as it were, is a Streetkid. Its just the right path for me.
I always end up going back to that lifepath, even tho a lot of others say 'oh, streetkid is *expletive deleted* play Nomad or Corpo instead'

Street Kid imo I consider my "head canon" path.

1. Corpo - You already have an established relationship with Jackie, explaining why you feel sad that he dies. You have an established relationship with Arasaka.

2. Nomad - I just like the idea of the Nomad's. And Panam > Judy.

3. Street - has nothing going for it as far as I'm concerned. it was shoehorned in because they needed a third and a street kid version.

If you want the most well themed story. Nomad Lifepath and Nomad Ending make the best through story.

You come to night city, find out it sucks, get in way over your head, turn it around, and then leave with a new family

Street kid fits best over all. You are from town so knowing people and how the place is fits better for a lot of the quest and story.

Corp is the weakest LP theme and story wise. But you got a little revenge going on in there so it kind of works.

But in my opinion Nomad Solo the strongest fitting most of the trailers and making the best story open and close.

Personally though I went Netrunner street kid my frist run. And I'm doing a new run for PL as a corpo netrunner

Aye, ive told folks this when asked 'which path should i pick?'

If you have no knowledge of the tabletop or game, pick Nomad.
you are outside of the city, you know nothing of the life inside and how it works. So you BOTH find out how things work there (lol)

If you know the tabletop and have played it before (or Shadowrun ether)
Streetkid is good. You know the slang, you might know the people who are movers and shakers. You know your way around the style and some of the systems.

and Corpo is good if you like to be slick, rich or a nasty piece of work to people in games (cause Corpo V's replies are sometimes a lot nastier than anything else. but then, thats the Corpo way. Step on everyone and everything that is in between you and power/money/control)

for me nomad fits the story the best, as well as panam ending is the most acurate to me

[SlicerDicer]

if lifepath truly affected the game in anyway then the choice would be important.
heck your lifepath has NO EFFECT on the endings.

at best you get a few speech choices that might avoid combat. but why would you?

its analogous to putting a new skin on weapon.

for RP purpose i concur. Hence when i do street kid I did, well need to wait till the modders adjust for 2.0, the script so can romance Judy.

just there is no cool romance for a corpo that i can recall.

[astraldooley]

I'd say corpo is the best lifepath because you get a lot more dialog options compared to the other two. Streetkid makes the most sense as the canon lifepath.

[5ean5ean]

Corpo for Female V

Nomad for Male V

Street Kid is straight up garbage.

Female Corpo, going out in a blaze of glory.

That is what I'm doing for PL I am RPing as a complete ♥♥♥♥ bag borderline cyberpyscho.

My Frist playthrough pre-2.0 I was a street kid with a heart of gold.
