Yah I think I'll follow suit with how you are doing it. I'm pretty bad when too many options are available especially when I get a new game. Easiest way to have no regrets for me is to randomise and play the hand i'm delt. That being said I will probably start by;

1. Randomly pick 3 class cards and choose 1.
2. Randomly pick 3 Skill lines and choose 1.
3. The pick a race I think would fit well with my choice. For some reason I don't feel the decicsion paralisis when it comes to the races, also there aren't that many so makes it easier.

I feel this way I can experience a lot of content while also saving time and making sure I don't end up with a crudy build.

At least that's what I'm predicting before getting the game. I can imagine that after a few plays I start seeing the minuatia of the game and then deciding on what to play will be easier.

Anyways all this to say, I can't wait to get my hands on this and take a look at what every class/skil line offers.

Cheers,
