While an interesting start point for our character, I'm not sure how it becomes repeatable to keep players engaged after finishing the story? Tfw no one catches the reference I'm just started playing skyrim a few weeks ago and got it immediately. Refrained form respondings at first as I did not know if it references other TES games as well.
This scene also introduces several important characters, i.e. the Gagged One and Roman General, the nazi elf b*tch and the flying flamethrower lord, complete with subtitle spoiler. Also, in that case I want a chance to burn the haughty officer overseeing the exceution to a crisp. I rolled several characters before finally settling on a lizard lady, and all but one followed the Stormcloak. At first, I thought it would make slightly more sense than following a soldier of the group bent to take your head off for no apparent reason. Then I found out you got to kill the b*tch captain on that route.
As for repeating hooks, I guess I tend towards a type of puzzle that needs logic instead of skill and reaction speed, i.e. no jumping or racing challenges. I'm not getting any younger. On the other hand, making certain puzzles mandatory for story progress might easily throw people off. Imagine you never did sudoku before and try to open one of those "locked" consoles in MEA. Some of the higher level puzzles are kinda hard by sudoku standards and of course the override is disabled as well.

Waking up in a carriage, as a prisoner being taken to execution. I mean, every game should start that way!

Reconciling and balancing story based content with exploration based content. Good luck.
