For as much as Fallout 4 looks like a thoroughly well-crafted world (and with a more impressive color range than the brown and grays of Fallout 3), Bethesda is giving players the tools to further personalize their post-apocalyptic survival experience. That means building a home through a deep multi-phase process that involves collecting resources to craft practical parts. From the foundation to the house's frame, to reenforcing it with corrugated metal, Fallout 4 will turn its fans into amateur architects and interior designers. That includes a personal home for your dog. Home evolves into a homestead when you attract traders to exchange food, water, and even power generators. Generators begets terminals and laser turrets to the point that there was a sense of tower defense when you protect your settlement from raiders. Who needs human allies when you can create a periphery with automated firearms?
Speaking of weapons, customization has been taken to near Borderlands levels of gun variations. From barrels to stocks, to beam splitters and focusers, there are over 50 base weapons and hundreds of modifications to suit your specific combat preferences. Want a mahogany bat with a dual saw blade at the end? It's possible if you have the right parts. Same goes for the power armor, where legs, torso, and other body parts can be bought and fitted individually. All this crafting makes for an immense time suck, but it's a fitting match for this next expansive Fallout world.
