It's Space Magic.
Our characters know how to speak, use guns, pilot sparrows, maintain and upgrade their own gear. I just suspend my disbelief and accept this kind of stuff as necessary to keep the story moving. I'm just glad I didn't have to sit through a montage of our characters learning to speak, walk, and poop all over again.

I don't think these sort of details matter much. The idea of the game is to get the players into the action as soon as possible. Our characters will know what they need to know in order to be bad ass action heroes. They're also empty shells (no backgrounds) because we're meant to inhabit them and instill ourselves into this character. Rather than being a puppeteer for an action hero that someone else fully fleshed out, we are the action heroes and this is our legend. It's just like the main character of Marathon, and to a lesser extent Master Chief, were empty shells for the same reason.

Yeah, but our characters just seem to not care about themselves. Quite personally, if I had just been revived from the dead and had no memory, I would at mention how little I knew about myself instead of just going with it.
