For my playthrough I chose
Neon Street Rat
It was nice to feel like I had a history somewhere. It doesn’t come up a lot, but when it does it feels satisfying. Especially when questing on Neon. You feel street smart.
Wanted
Kind of mid on this one. I didn’t run into a lot of space combat in my playthrough, so having these guys show up here and there was nice. The bit of story you get is ok but I wish there was more.
Parents
Absolutely fantastic, and it is going to be hard to skip on future playthroughs. Its a bit of a bummer they miss your wedding, but between all the free stuff and the unexpecting places you run into them it is 100% worth it.
Bounty hunter- it comes with pilot, targeting systems and boost packs.
All three are great to get early. Other early skills are security, weightlifting and the oxygen one, mostly because the unlocks are annoying to get
At least, for me.
I wish I'd gone with this. It's the playstyle I landed on without intending to do so.
Eh. Skills are really only about how you start and maybe RP if that’s something thst internests you.
The traits are far more important.
