Look at it from an RP perspective.

Corpo makes it more believable that V knows so much about all these corporations and what motivates then.

If you like playing like a diplomat weasel corpo is for you. My corpo build has nothing in body or reflexes. I'm a spoiled fat trickster V. Throwing a knife makes me out of breath and one that wakes up can take revenge, so I prefer my Nue and silencer, aided with quickhacks or altogether avoidance with optical camo. Only sneak when you can't blend in. Don't make good stuff, buy it.

I drive in a Herrera.

Nomad V is more morally sound, will for goodness sake maken decisions even without formal evidence. He takes action and is self reliant.

My Nomad V is a real techie and always has the best gear on him. All self made or upgraded. Can sneak really well because his 5 senses are healthy and developed. Not much good at quickhacks. Berserk or maybe Sandevistan. But my Nomad V is also very pragmatic. Not an athlete, but no slouch either. Sandevistan and problem solver are a good combo.

I drive the free commercial truck.

Street kid V has good physical endurance and is strong. The concrete jungle is way more ruthless than the open lands of Nomads, and youn don't have the comforts corpos have. It explains why he doesn't die after being shot at all the time.

Street kid V is cynical and strong. Doesn't fear melee at all, and sneak is only optional. A quickhack to start off with, perhaps. Mostly use intelligence to gather components and money with the datamine daemon so I can buy good stuff. But I upgrade it myself.

I drive any car I can steal.
