What are you playing now
Hmm, I started as a Void Psyker myself, and it definitely is one of the harder starts. You need a second character asap. A Cyberninja would make sense as they are DPS, but a Soldier is also a solid choice. Second hire should be a Hacker. If you pick missions, grab one that has you interact with a terminal. That way you can try to find the terminal and then run back out and not clear the whole map. Did you do the full tutorial including finding the secret room? I think that was enough money for a hire.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS - 'NON-FAKE-NEWS EDITION'
I wonder, you always hear about the drama queen, yet we never hear about the drama king. Where is he? Has he passed on? Is he having a secret affair with the duchess of comedy? I think he got turned into a llama by a witch who found toads too cliche.

He sure does. Though I had hoped I could get the squid-bunny as a character edit: and the game was not proof read by someone who really speaks English

Next article reads: Obsidian Forum regular poster Labadal distances himself from NeoGAF. "I wasn't in the loop in anything about this," Labadal wrote on the Obsidian Forum, and ended his post, like so many other former NeoGAF readers, saying "time to find a new news aggregator."

Seems like a sound choice.

I think I have turned into a pure casual gamer. Saw screenshots of D:OS2 with the inventory open, and I thought I was looking at a Match-3 game.

Civ III is currently free in the Humble Store if anyone is feeling nostalgic.

For a moment I thought you were back to SR.

The humour is there. But the game has a darker edge to it. There are times where there is no humour, just the story. With the 3rd and 4th, even when things were dark, the over-the-topness kept things somehow light. SR2 is the game where all the truly dramatic events of Saints Row took place. So the earth blew up in the fourth game - sh!t happens.

I think the game has a really good start to get you into character. And in general the writing is very solid.

Wait wait wait what. xD And you don't even want to know what is out there for CK2

The disturbing thing about Stellaris is that there is a nude patch for it :/

The first two aren't as lighthearted. I haven't played the first. And after suffering through the driving controls of the second (which were greatly improved in the third game) I am not certain I could. But the games are brutal. They had some humour, but overall the second game is an extremely violent crime story that sets itself apart from GTA through the brutality more than the absurdity.
