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.
I also took Parents for my first playthrough - and I totally agree with you! It’s going to be tough to ever skip that trait in the future… and I’m hopping modders will add even more for them to do!
