@teto @nihilvt yeah like the clothes you wear or car your drive have no affect on the roleplaying whatsoever. the life path you choose pretty much only matters for the beginning chunk of the game and only little dialogue bits after that. actions you take can adjust and tweak parts of stories and side stories here and there but nothing extremely major until the ending.

the main meat of the RPG formula is all in the character building, which was completely gutted and replaced at some point with much better options. i think it was the 2.0 update but it could have been before then a bit too. i just remember my friend telling me all about his build and i had no idea what he was talking about lol. but it's kind of cool, being able to just bust through a locked door because you have enough skill points allocated into your strength instead of finding a key or hacking it.
