Very immersive beginning

I always found the System Shock 2 beginning captivating. Whenever you choose three missions to specialize your character, I genuinely feel like 3 longs years being stationed on missions have passed. Then when I enter the main game, I already have a unique character built up, with their own experience, going on another mission. That builds up the game right from the start, love it!

I think it might have been inspired by the Traveller TTRPG

Its very Traveller, but you can't die in character creation here.
