The Fallout 4 Character Creations meme stems from the incredibly robust, yet often terrifying, facial customization system introduced by Bethesda in 2015. Players quickly realized they could create more than just heroic survivors; they could craft horrific abominations, uncanny celebrity lookalikes, or hyper-realistic versions of themselves. The meme usually highlights the absurdity of spending hours fine-tuning a character that will spend most of the game wearing a helmet, or simply showcases the 'cursed' results of pushing the sliders to their limits. It remains a staple in gaming communities to mock the obsessive nature of RPG players and the often unintended humor of in-game facial rigs.
