Before you start learning the basics of the game, you will be asked to choose the life path of your character. There are only three choices in the game. More information about each of them can be found below.

1.1 Life Path: Nomad
Starting quest – “Trouble never comes alone”.

The main character appears in the workshop in front of the mirror. His goal is to talk to the mechanic and check the engine of the vehicle. After that, he needs to get into the fixed vehicle and get ready to go.

At this point, V is stopped by a policeman. It is necessary to talk to him, and then head to the radio tower. Upon arriving at our destination, climb to the top of the structure and try to contact a man named Billy McCoy.

After V has arranged to meet him, we get back in the car and start driving through the desolate terrain. You will encounter Jackie in the trailer, after which you will be required to pick up the goods stolen from the corporatists and take them to a specific location.

The next objective is to infiltrate Knight City. At the checkpoint, the protagonist is picked up for the purpose of finding out personal information. To get rid of the customs officers, you have to take money from the accomplice and give it as a bribe. After paying the “duty”, V passes the checkpoint, but after a short time he is attempted to be stopped by people in cars belonging to the “Arasaka” corporation.

Jackie begins to drive the car, while Vee tries to eliminate the pursuers by shooting guns at their cars. Avoiding the chase, you take refuge in a garage room, open a shipping box and discover a live reptile in it.

1.2 Lifeline: The Corporatist
Starting quest – “Between Two Fires”

The Corporat life journey scenario begins in the main building of the Arasaka Corporation (in the restroom). The protagonist has a conversation with an old buddy Jackie Wells, after which he goes to the head of the department and along the way meets another minor but interesting character.

The head of the department, Jenkins, kills the European advisors in front of Vee in order to buy time. After this event, the protagonist is given the task of eliminating Dr. Abernathy, the woman who framed Jenkins. The quest adds a chip of information and money to your inventory.

Walking back, the protagonist can walk up to his workplace. There are important papers there that are available for review, and in the desk is a stimulant and an insurance policy. Under these items you can see a Retro Gaming magazine with The Witcher 3.

The next destination is a visit to Lizzie’s Place. There we meet Jackie, who will not like the dangerous mission. The character will tell the protagonist that it is better to leave the position in the corporation while there is a chance. At this time, two Jenkins agents will approach V, take all the money and the chip, tell him that he has lost his position, and then attempt to kill the main character.

At this point Jackie will start helping you, thanks to which you will be able to save your life. After this stage V. becomes a mercenary and starts working together with his savior.

1.3 The Way of Life: Child of the Streets
The starting quest is “For Bros and Yard.”

The events of this life journey begin at El Coyote Cojo’s bar. The main character is trying to fix his nose after a melee and at this time the bartender asks V for help. According to the guy, he owes Kirk a lot of money.

We agree to help and go up to the second floor of the building. Kirk is there. We need to talk to him and get a quest, the purpose of which is to steal a valuable car, and for that Kirk will forgive the debt to the bartender. We accept the mission and follow to the goal marked on the map with a marker.

Upon exiting the bar, V encounters a local authority who offers to give him a ride. We get in the car. While driving, the protagonist becomes involved in a conflict with another bandit, but nothing terrible happens.

Upon arrival at the destination go to the parking lot and talk to the security guard. After the conversation we head to the far wall and look for a special place where the right vehicle stands. We start to open it. At this point V is attacked by the armed bandit Jackie. After a minute scuffle both are taken away by the cops. The main character and Jackie are beaten and then released.
