    Went with random creation. Unfortunately I skipped over the slider customizations. Stuck with a male character. Though the height slider was already cranked up.

    Tried to go for a melee build, but stats favored int. So, I’ve been going with a Netrunner build (IT).

    Accidentally skipped all the tutorials and early levels, trying to figure it out since then.

    (Non-traditional education for where I come from that prepared me very well academically but less so socially and professionally)

    My character creation glitched and gave me a male body when I specifically chose female in the options. Devs made it really hard to fix this but some people have found some ways around it. Fortunately my skill build came out pretty good, high cha+int with average str and dex, so I’m a netrunner/bard multiclass and that’s working pretty well.

    My character for some reason gets extremely happy when there is either cats or coffee around 🤷

      Have you tried the comic relief character? If you get good at it, you can sometimes get re-rolls on failing checks. This rarely helps with combat, though, so be careful.

    Hmmm. I’d say for me, personally, it’s less about what I did and more the stuff that happened to/around me. Most of them are common-ish on their own, but all of them together are a bit weird.

    To name a few:

    • Divorced parnents

    • neglectful/abusive parents

    • Multiple childhood friends died via unrelated unnatural means right around the time they reached adulthood

    • Born and half-raised near the location ofTrinity test bomb explosion

    • moved to/ half-raised at one of the meeting locations for the MK Ultra experiments

    • Teenage son of close family friends when I was smol turned out to be a child molestor (dw, i was safe)

    There’s some more, but that’s all i feel like writing

    In context of the post I guess this would be considered “plot-driven character development”

      Sounds like your difficulty settings are glitched. I’d recommend having a word with the devs but they don’t tend to respond to user requests.
