You Can Use HTML To Name Weapons In Fallout 4

Apparently, it’s possible to use HTML when you rename weapons in Fallout 4. While that doesn’t have a lot of applications, it does enable you to italicize your weapon names to show your enemies you mean business. In this example, Twitter user @ashelia used the bold <b> </b> and italic <i> </i> tags around the name “Mr. Stabby” to make it bold and italic.

It’s hard to say what the limits here are – some HTML tags don’t seem to work, so try not to get your hopes up for glittery, revolving comic sans weapon names. (Though if anyone has had any success doing so, please report in the comments section – for science.)
