Starfield, like any proper RPG, can tell you a lot about its universe by the skills it chooses to emphasize. But when you have so many skill choices, it can also be difficult to decide which ones you want to specialize in. Starfield's backgrounds give you a good starting point, complete with some lore about who you were before you decided to make a career as an RPG protagonist. But as you grow your character, you'll probably want to branch out a bit.
Since almost all of this information comes from pausing trailers and showcases and scribbling down what tiny text we could make out, this list is far from comprehensive at this point. But in the cases where we don't know much about a skill yet, we've at least tried to make a best guess how it might work.
