I'd max out luck and put the remaining points into charisma
playthrough, just vibing
Use the charisma to become a socialist leader and use the luck to survive all the CIA assassination attempts
Castro build
A high speech skill and autism doesn't result in a mediocre speech skill, you just end up with high speech and too much anxiety to do anything with it
i would have chosen to have properly functioning organs that werent the result of poisoning by chemicals the us used to commit crimes against humanity
I would have loaded cheat engine and maxxed my stats. Failing that, I would have just removed the "Bipolar" and "ADHD" flaws.
i like the flavor mental disorders add to my runs. for me, i think i'd keep around my ADHD but drop MDD since the ADHD flaw has some boons too.
i'd like to experience a run with BPD but i'd probably get tired of it real quick.
Totes fair. If I could pick and choose symptoms there are definitely parts of ADHD I'd keep - The wild lateral thinking leaps, for instance. And Bipolar has a few perks, too. They're just massively outweighed by the negative symptoms.
Borderline or Bipolar? Bipolar is an absolute trip. I have type II, which involves hypomanic episodes, so like less-than full bore manic, and even though they're not as intense as manic episodes they can be quite frightening and disruptive. It's an incredibly odd experience, one of those things I don't think people who haven't experienced it can fully understand. I kind of wish we had some kind of temporary mental-illness ray. I think if people could volunteer to experience hte symptoms in a controlled, safe way it'd be much easier for people to be compassionate towards people suffering from mental health symptoms.
yeah, Bipolar. I'm curious about what a manic episode would be like since MDD just kinda sucks and is boring? so it'd be nice to have some extra flavor
mildly curious about Borderline since it seems people with it have really exciting lives (but it seems pretty shitty to have)
My brief description for mania is being absolutely, unshakably convinced that you are the coolest, smartest, sexiest, most capable, awesomest person in the room. Not in a self confidence way, but in an outright frightening unshakable delusion way. Kind of the opposite of when you're severely depressed and think you're the worst and everyone hates you, but that doesn't really convey the feeling.
Take the secret shapeshifter option
damn what combo was i supposed to hit on the start screen
I dunno, you kinda have to throw away any and all notions you might have about your own identity if you want to get the most out of a shapeshifter run
my gender loaded incorrectly, mods haven't fixed it yet
I would download one of those ginormies tiddie mods and have an impossibly huge rack for no reason and nobody will ever make reference to it
I would simply turn down the peasantry dial
Probably the ADHD one too
would've just modded so that I'd have god mode on and then I'd go directly to Israel
And then politely suggest that they consider a humanitarian pause right? 
I wouldn’t have picked so many of the mental illness traits. The buffs are not worth the debuffs. Also I would be an orc
I would spec into bimbo and i would then bimbo about bimbly
Not play, this game is pay to win.
i would choose Banker from Boston so i had a lot of money and then just bought everything i needed at the beginning.
I'd probably have designed something more balanced, and not dumped Psyche. Through the course of the game I wound up putting far too many points into Electrochemistry when I meant to take the drugs so I could boost other skills.
Also I probably would have put more points into motorics before taking Savoir Faire as my signature skill.
less injury proneness. fuck this shitty knee ruining my life
Death to America
i would hold down the power button
greedisgood 999999999
sharpandshiny
fountainisdown
WhosYourDaddy
thereisnospoon
I'd turn down the sensitivity and memory features and put the points into charisma or social cues.
If luck was a stat, I'd turn that on.
in this game merit is make believe so most stats are useless other than luck
probably all luck and secondary charisma
Congrats Mr Trump
uncheck the dry/bad skin box
Permanently Deleted
Less trauma. I'd probably genderflip a bunch.
I would say max out accuracy but I actually haven't tested that out
...yet 
i'd be less removed
I want that perk that gives you giant muscles for no good reason. I know it is rare in humans. Pretty much all the other apes get it and I am missing out. Fuck up my myostatin homie.
Dump Str/Dex (useless for my class), Tiefling for the racial Cha bonus (for RP purposes). Other than that just whatever will be the most annoying for the people in my party
I like being smart, but I'd probably make myself a himbo if I could pick my stats. Just seems to make things so much easier.
Would make myself aro/ace
The only things I'd want to change:
- Getting rid of hyper mobility
- Family that would've seen and accepted me being trans from an early age
- A family that I actually connect with
Basically I don't feel like I've finished this run yet so I want to sort things out before I think of different builds.
Being neurtypical would be easier but I have neurodivergent stubbornness.
I guess growing up in a place with an actual culture would've been nice. The suburbs are kinda... lacking.
In conclusion given a choice between changing my own character creation and doing a waifu character creation I'd choose the latter. Going through puberty for a third time sounds terrible I'd rather just fix this one.
I wouldn't make constitution my dump stat this time, that's for sure
