I'm not saying Fallout 4 modding drama gets to people, but here's Breaking Benjamin's singer begging concertgoers to try his AI-assisted first person mod

Fallout 4 already has first person though, what exactly did he mod?

From the mod page linked in the article:

Fallout 4’s vanilla first person shows a pair of floating arms. This mod replaces that with a True First Person perspective where your player character’s full body is rendered and visible in first person. Look down and you’ll see your body, legs, clothing and equipped gear as part of the same character you see in third person. Your perspective also stays in first person during interactions that would normally force the camera out, such as workstations, power armor, etc. Third person is unaffected.

That's kind of neat, but I've seen that mod by like, 8 different people before the advent of AI. Why reinvent the wheel using the very thing that limits his fan base from playing the game to begin with?

My take is that being the guy in the band famous for that one song in Halo 2, he also enjoyed the game and the fact that you could see Master Chief's legs in that game where most games tend not to render the entire body in first person. My guess is that he's made that his personality since then.

Out of touch moron, maybe? Just spitballing though.

It keeps you in first person even when using workstations and such
