As an enthusiast of both science fiction and driving long distances through empty spaces, I've been hoping that Starfield would let me achieve my dreams of becoming a space trucker. The recent Starfield dev Q&A brought equal parts good and bad news on that front.
As with any Bethesda game, maintaining a headcanon is essential to how you tackle roleplaying, and the devs know that. "My latest character is a working shlub named Mitch Dombrowski," lead designer Emil Pagliarulo said. "He's a husky, good-natured space trucker, and while he'll do whatever he needs to defend himself, he'll never shoot first. He's like Han Solo's sweeter older brother. And yes, there are Traits and Backgrounds that support that kind of thing."
