According to CP2077 Fandom: cyberpunk.fandom.com/wiki/V_(Character)#Lifepath_HistoryCorporate: "Few leave the corporate world with their lives – fewer still with their souls intact. You’ve been there – you’ve bent the rules, exploited secrets and weaponized information. There’s no such thing as fair game. Only winners and losers." - V starts out as an Arasaka corporate agent in the Arasaka Tower. V is then tasked with a mission and takes an AV on their way to Lissie's Bar run by the Moxes. The AV lands on the roof and V is cornered by punks, which then prompts V to beat them up and continue to the bar. Here V meets up with long time friend Jackie Welles as they sit down to discuss business. V then gets cornered by other Arasaka agents and gets stripped of his/her corporate cyberware. Jackie than decides to help V out afterwards. Nomad: "Roaming the Badlands, looting scrapyards, raiding fuel depots – life on the road wasn’t easy, But growing up in a nomad clan has its perks. Honesty, integrity and a love of freedom – qualities that few in Night City possess and no amount of money can buy." - V starts outside of Night City in the Badlands and stops to get some vehicle work done in a small town by a mechanic named Mike. V needs to smuggle something into the City. Before leaving V is stopped by Sheriff Roland and questioned on why he is in their town. V needs to meet his/her contact before heading into the city, this ends up being Jackie Welles who has the smuggled goods. They get caught up at the border and get in a high speed chase with Arasaka troops chasing them. Street Kid: "They say if you wanna understand the streets, you gotta live 'em. Gangs, fixers, dolls, small-time pushers – you were raised by them all. Down here the law of the jungle dictates the weak serve the strong – the only law in Night City you have yet to break." - V starts out in a bar with a broken nose needing to get it fixed. V tries helping out a person at the local bar by trying to help with their debt they own to a new Fixer in town. The Fixer then tasks V to steal a specific car from a corpo agent. Later V is told by Kirk Sawyer to steal a Rayfield car with the device given to him, before leaving V is stopped by Jackie Welles who is also attempting to steal the car. The NCPD capture them and then ordered by Kooru Fujioka to dispose of them.

Corporate I just want to get fired by my corpolords so I have a personal reason to screw them over later.  Saying that, the Street Kid intro seems to be the "nice guy/girl" one. Who would steal a car to buy someone else debts but a nice guy/girl?

I'm going Corporate first. A phoenix rising story seems more interesting than a big break or wanderer story. Saying that, the Street Kid intro seems to be the "nice guy/girl" one. Who would steal a car to buy someone else debts but a nice guy/girl? I imagine any of them can be nice guy/gal, and visa versa. The Street KId might just be doing it to score favor or debt from the guy. Likewise, I'm planning on playing my Corpo as someone who wants to make the world better, so hopefully I have more options to my boss wanting me to kill their boss other than "Yes sir."

Nomad is what I'll be trying out first, seeing the city from an outside perspective seems the most appealing to me, plus the whole " Honesty, integrity and love of freedom" hell yeah. I'll take a stab at corpo second and street kid last. Anyway do we get to wear these clothes? The Nomad style is sexy asf.

eh, M!V looks like Shepard in that pic.  Street kid seems the most natural to me. Btw, considering this new context, CDPR did ditch the ideas of "looking for a lost brother/sister", "looking for an exlover" and "looking to make a name" as motives for being in NC, didn't they? (or they confirmed to be out of question in the previous showcase? i dont quite recall it).

The devs said they debated but decided they wanted the background more worked into the game and affecting it or something like that.

Probably Nomad, since that gives me an RP reason to not know much about how things work in NC, being from outside. Lets me ask dumb questions without them being things that V should OBVIOUSLY know already, being raised on the streets or having been a corporate agent for however long prior.

Obviously this is a small, non-representative sample, but the other polls I've seen has Nomads (my personal preference, and pretty popular here) coming in dead last. I wonder if it's just the numbers at work or something about the people around here.

Everywhere I'm going people are saying they want to be Corpo or Nomad...with Corpo being the clear winner. Street Kid seems almost forgotten in comparison. I think the latest images/video showing the 3 lifepaths are the reasons why: - Street Kid is basically a street samurai-wannabe that go steal a car. - Nomad is a biker/smuggler that is trying to get into the city and end up in a car chase. - Corpo looks sleek and lose their job. Actually, I'm surprised so many just want to experience getting fired.

Myself, I'm not terribly interested in playing a rich asshole, fallen from grace or not, and Street Kid seems bland. Nomad sounds cool, though.

If you check the comments in the Reddit thread they are all saying Nomad/Corpo, so I guess Twitter is full of Street Kids for some reasons. The official forum poll date from last year, I'm not sure if it is still accurate now that we have footage/descriptions. The recent posts lean more Nomad/Corpo as well (I checked the last two pages).

Toss up between Corpo and Street Kid for me. The latter would be slightly more in keeping with my own personality and I like the idea of rising up from the gutter. But when this game got announced, playing a Patrick Bateman style ruthless corpo always seemed appealing from a role play perspective. I'm still disappointed they didn't include the cop life path. That would have been cool too.

Nomad appeals to me the most on a personal level. Morally speaking. And I have a soft spot for the mechanical genius in all games. Not sure though I'll pick it.
I might go corpo gone rogue and vindictive so I can try to work a smooth talker. Very cliche but so are the other origins too potentially.
I'll probably decide on a whim when I start the game.
It's not going to be Street Kid though. That life style is so alien to me that I never pick it for a first playthrough. A background needs to be SOMEWHAT relatable to me going in blind. I usually reserve roleplaying characters very different from my own life experience for later PTs.

I think I'll start as a street kid. To me that's the quintessential cyberpunk background, toughin' it out in the gutters.  On the other hand, I want to make my first PT into a sneaky hacker character. Maybe Corporate would suit that playstyle better. Ah, decisions, decisions...

That would have been cool too. Patrick Bateman style? Yikes! So utterly depraved torture and lengthy monologues about your favourite bands? I think he goes a fair bit beyond "ruthless".
I quite like the idea of just being an entitled Corpo arsehole at the beginning and maybe having a redemption arc. Or perhaps just vengeance, I'll see how it goes. I'll probably aim a bit more for Trading Places than American Psycho though.
I do like the idea of making your way to the city at the beginning though. I may even do the first couple of hours as a Nomad, then restart.
