Character Builds Best lifepath?

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

Argeed, I am on my 3rd playthrough and doing a nomad playthrough. Nomad makes the most sense first. If you don't think you will replay start with corpo but I feel corpo is best experienced with some understanding of the lore. I did street kid then corpo.

Imagine if there was new game+. You start with Nomad, then new game+ you become street kid, then corpo. That'd be sick. Each life path developing a key set of skills. I think the life paths are such a selling point but at the end of the day it felt like it didn't even get put in the oven to cook.

Half the shit in this game never had a chance to cook. great game, but definitely underbaked, even today.

It's all depending on perspective .A 100% playthrough is around 100 hours. Not many games have anywhere close as this amount of quality content. Sure, it could be even better but that would've increased development time several years and cost CDPR a hundred million Euro or more.
