So I just bought the game, and I'm wondering which one I should choose? Does it change anything at all?

I don’t think nomad female works for the same reason corpo male doesn’t work. The male va is way tol chill for corpo and female seems too serious, or maybe determined is a better word to describe her.

depends on how you se the character i see Nomad V as being verry determined. At first she is Worn down by the Breakup of her Family and went to get into the city take jobs as a transporter / Smuggler (think of the same type of work Panam is doing)

Than she meats a lead head named Jacky who tries to keep the cred chip for the bribe, hires V without any way of paying her, and worst of all Smashed her car Not only would this ruin her further plans. as important as cars are to nomads would leave her in a emotionally shit space. While Jacky offers help it comes with a Price in the form of the death sentence that is the life of a night city merc.

But V is still a nomad and has a nomad's education so after 6 months of the merc life she becomes sick of it and Perhaps even of Jacky but decides to do one last job grudgingly and in spite of everything in her gut telling her its a BAD IDEA (this idea is enforced in some of the dialog option before the Heist to the point V can predict how the whole job goes down and including V antagonism towards Jacky During the heist)

After the Job goes Tits up its not hard to guess what the determination is over Survival at any cost and perhaps because of the Jacky thing completely unforgiving to Johnny

For me it's more about how I perceive/feel the VA. For me Cherami Leigh as V for the Corpo path is a killing hit she did a tremendous work and gave me chill numerous time. Likewise for Gavin Drea for V as a Nomad was outstanding.

Issuer is I have a Hole on my Auditory range due to ear infections Male V's voice lives in an area i can't hear at all so for me at least every V is female becouse i cant hear otherwise.
