I can sense this is going to get downvoted probably. I know you guys probably love all aspects of the game so it's understandable. But I'm not into story based games. I'm into more active gameplay (mostly combat/adventure), of which there is a lot in Cyberpunk that's actually good. I just want to know how to get the most action with this game and skip through the story, yeah I know I'm missing stuff, but that's not what I got the game for. I just want gameplay, not story or dialogue or choose your own adventure stuff.
I chose Corpo and I'm not sure if it's the best path since I read that it has a lot of dialogue. I'm so uninterested in the dialogue that I skip through all of it while choosing random/default options mostly, until I can get to more action gameplay or at least get to walk around and look at stuff which is fun.
I saw gameplay footage online which sold me on the game, and it had someone shooting at robots and fighting different enemies a lot with space age futuristic weaponry and settings. That's what I want from this game. How can I get to fight robots properly (not the dummy robot you have a fist fight with in the ring but actual warbots with weapons that are a real threat)? Does the Corpo go up against robots at some point or is that something reserved for Streetkid? I just want the most combat and gameplay possible with the least dialogue/story-driven stuff.
All of the life paths are generally the same in terms of who/what you fight. They primarily affect the opening scene of the game (which are all very different) and what conversion options you have throughout the game (which in turn can lead to options that don't involve fighting).
That said, pick any life path you want and in a majority of dialogues there's a skip-button to fast forward. The dialogue options that advance the quest/story are highlighted for you in yellow so just pick any one of those. You do run the risk of missing out on some different story outcomes but that's probably fine based on what you said. There will be times where dialogue cannot be skipped, it's too integral to the story so just power through it.
However, after you hit a certain point in the game (when you are given a quest called "Nocturn Op55N") there will be a lot of freedom and fighting from doing the side quests which have much less dialogue than the main quest lines. You'll definitely love that point in the game.
Also, Corpos don't fight any more robots than nomad or street sadly. As you play the game you'll see how the stories converge. I suspect that CDPR ran out of time when trying to make each life path different.
Lastly, if you enjoy the game enough to purchase the Phantom Library DLC, that expansion is like 70% dialogue but it's pretty amazing fighting too (and some robot fights).
It's really a great game either way though, enjoy it however you want.
