I tested it and i dont think organized applies to the player's inventory. Join. Solid option for people wanting to live off the grid.

Some additional thoughts from me: Speed demon has an unlisted downside of making your engine rev WAY faster, and since engine noise is based on RPM this means that cars are WAY louder. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. Only downside is sometimes you have nothing to do in a day, leaving your character to get bored and depressed, but thats what sleeping pills and exercise are for. Some people don't care though hence why in the middle at 3/5. This means that the player can start the game with only negative traits if they choose to do so, but if the player wants positive traits they will have to make some compromises.

Of course, some are rendered irrelevant by the extreme end game: Slow reader is not relevant after all books have been read, neither is slow learner after all skills are maxed out / max level is reached. Ideally paired with fire officer so you can pick underweight and still keep athletic. Strength is difficult to level up, dont take this. The extra speed will often cause you to crash and badly injure yourself, even with cruise control. Most positive. I figured you guys would appreciate it. Faster speed saves time. Don't bother.
