With Fallout 4’s sophisticated engine, we can easily spend hours tweaking every angle of our character’s cheekbones to create an exact representation of who we want to play as. Still, our minds are simple, and the hair on our Sole Survivor’s head will say much more than a subtle 2-degree inclination of the outer brow ever could. Despite Bethesda being fully aware of the vital importance of customization, the speed at which they create new hairstyles for their character creation engines will never be enough to satisfy the gluttonous masses....

Rather than focusing on physically attractive or bad-ass characters to promote their main games, they rely on something everyone can enjoy: cuteness.

You use it to work the field, catch lunch, and of course kick some butt. So Asta having anti-magic became extremely powerful, extremely quickly.

Fortunately the game gives us lots of gear to mix and match according to our preferences. These choices ultimately combine with stat distribution, infusions, buffs, and weapon upgrades to form what we like to call “builds”. Many players will opt into a melee playstyle to defeat their enemies by wielding swords, spears, axes, and more. While you can reasonably use any number of weapons to complete the game, there are some picks that just stand a cut above the rest....

One of the broader aspect of this game’s massive customization comes with all the weapons your characters have at their disposal.
