Will be fixed with the next update (pretty soon). For now, you can get around it by not failing the stat check :D

Cool. Not possible for my character in that play-through to not fail the stat check beforehand as I went on normal difficulty and wanted to try playing as a character that wasn’t absolutely maxed out on everything.
I just left a save there and restarted the game to try choosing some different options. Selected stronger starting options and it’s interesting how much it affects how the beginning plays out.
Thanks for your reply.
