It was literally my first run (tutorial, but normal difficulty). Jesus holy hell, the pressure was too much. I just wanted to learn the controls man!
But really, what a crazy first experience. Manual and reddit open learning the controls and mechanics, barely making it through each floor. Recovered from one floor at <10% core, no matter, two legged kicked grunts out of my way to try and hide. Then, on a half dozen luckily found imp flight modules, recovered and played it fast and light. Stumbled into some sensors that kept me safe. Stumbled into the caves. And kept stumbling in the caves... until I stumbled into Zion... Became the One. I tried to tell them I didn't know all the controls yet

Didn't have the weight capacity to be able to gear up. Kept accidentally murdering my followers. Got half the population killed in a hack rebellion... Everyone that followed me, including this nice hacker man who came out of the walls to try and give me something... then I accidentally shot him in the core with a fancy bore-cannon mid sentence in a tunnel fight.
I survived, but felt guilty, it wasn't right. I wasn't the savior they deserved. Then steam came in, as punishment from on high, and my false profit first run was ended by a deus ex update. I'll do better next time

[Oh, note on that: if steam updates while you're not playing, you lose the save and don't get a score log atm, I think]
23 achievements, 0 deaths hehehe. Had a good laugh at one point during the run, right before the tides turned against me the first time, I was happy and care free blowing stuff up with dual EMP Launchers, and as my threat level kept rising, the room I was making my stand firing into just kept flooding with enemies, who kept dying, and I was feeling gleeful, and the achievement Storm Trooper popped up and I felt even more bad-ass; cherry on the cake as the game acknowledged my killing spree. Then when I go looking through my achievements later, I see the award is for 5 misses in a row lololol. Didn't matter... EMP Launchers.
Sorry for any typos, it's late, but wanted to try and share what felt like a crazy first game while it was still kinda fresh.
