Cyberpunk 2077: Which Lifepath to choose first?
We strongly doubt that one of the ways is strictly superior to the others, and they will have all their moments and advantages. It's hard to predict which one will have the better story, and the situation is chaotic enough in Night City to be able to say what Lifepath will give you the best opportunity.
Not that the best pieces of equipment should be obtained in several ways.
For your first game, we advise you to play Nomad. The Nomad ignores almost everything about Night City, and so will you.
If you're going to play a second (or third) game, then you can choose either Street Kid or Corpo, and like your character, you'll already know Night City, its intricacies, and its residents.
Of course, the most important thing is to choose the Lifepath that you want the most, because you are free thereafter to orient your character the way you want. You also have the option is to start three games in order to do the three prologues successively, then to choose the one that you prefer.
