A gamer has shown off a hilariousFallout 4mod that turns bananas into a deadly weapon. Players won’t struggle to find aunique weapon inFallout 4, but this particular one is much stranger than gamers will encounter in the base game.
Like most Bethesda titles,Fallout 4’s modding sceneis among the best in the gaming community. While the base game offers incredible freedom for players to play however they’d like, the modding community adds another layer to that, meaning that gamers can also turn the game itself into whatever they want. Some opt for more discreet mods that affect gameplay in small ways, whereas some turn the game into a fully-fledged military shooter. It’s this versatility that continues to drive players towards moddingFallout 4, instead of opting to pick up a newer game instead.

The clip posted by Redditor SmoothAsMarble shows the player picking up the banana in the middle of Diamond City. Upon consuming it, they gain a “Banana Peel Mine.” They then show off the mine, throwing it under an NPC, who goes flying under the banana peel. It even adds a hilarious noise as they slip for comedic effect. ManyFallout 4mods take themselves extremely seriously, matching the overall tone of the game. It’s great to see a mod do the opposite for once, and allow players to play the game with a more light-hearted approach.
Players in the thread found the mod hilarious, and took the opportunity to discuss other games with banana weapons. It’s not a particularly long list, withMetal Gear Solid 3andHitman 3asthe highlights. Over the years, there have been plenty of hilarious clips to come out ofFallout 4, with players getting the most out of Bethesda’s sandbox. OnefunnyFallout 4clip shows a legendary radroach being scrappedby the player, which is definitely not how the Settlement building feature was intended to be used. With gamers still enjoyingFallout 4, there are sure to be many more in the future, too.
When Bethesda does finally releaseFallout 5, hopefully, the developer continues to support the modding community by providing incredible tools for them to work with. There’s nothing to suggest that Bethesda intends to hamper modders going forward. Upcoming titleStarfieldalready has confirmed modding support, with the company recognizing the value of the community in extending the lifespan of its games. Even to this day,SkyrimandFallout 4remain some of the most-played games despite being eleven and seven years old respectively.
