  Just a quick and possibly interesting topic: If you've played more than one character in Fallout 4, which have you played the most? Taken the furthest? Or put the most thought and time into? As DLC was released, what character were you most likely to load up and explore the new territory? What level did you get to? What made them interesting / fun / playable? 

  Mine is my Gearhead.
  Level:74 and done as much as I'm going to do from a questline perspective.
  Class / playstyle: Power Armor, Intelligent Survivalist, Explosive Rifleman 
  Interesting: I think the thing about him is with the scrapyard mentality, you never know what new finds will help you create new inventions or useful tools. Also, Jet Pack Power Armor is the best way to see the Wasteland IMO. And, I really feel for the distinctive twang and steam pulse sound of the Railway Rifle.

  How about you?

  Neuromancer by a long shot.

  Level: 79. I've done almost everything there is in the Commonwealth including all dlcs but, I still haven't found the salesman turned ghoul.

  Class / Playstyle: Telepathic & Telekinetic Sniper, Psychic Infiltrator.

  Interesting: I've done my best to bring mind control and telekinesis into the gameplay. I put the pacify / intimidation perks to great use. In my experience it was the equivalent of nerfed illusion magic from Skyrim. It didn't make the Neuromancer overpowered because mind control succeeded based on a probability system. I liked to look at it as a battle of wills, jedi mind tricks working only on the weak sort of thing. I also loved that I was able tap into telekinesis to some degree via Ricochet and Lorenzo's Artifact Gamma Gun. And strangely, playing a stealthy character didn't break the game. It actually helped a lot when mind control didn't succeed since I could just retreat to the shadows and try my luck on someone else.

  The character I've played most is one I've done some creative work for, though haven't posted yet. Her name is Salina, you might have seen my sketch of her around. 

  Level: 40ish

  Class / playstyle: Rather balanced, actually. Here's her final spread: 3/5/1/6/4/5/6. Well, "balanced" if you don't count the fact she had 1 Endurance on Survival. And the fact that I played her almost entirely in 3rd person. Her weapons of choice are the combat rifle, combat shotgun, explosives, and a 10mm smg made from the Wastelander's Friend. Thing is an absolute beast. 
  
  Interesting: I think I really hit the nail on the head when it came to her roleplay. It took a dark turn where, after being put in charge of the Minutemen, she became a drug lord and overall crime boss to help fund the Minutemen. Best part is that no one knows about what she does. What she does, she does for the good of the Commonwealth, even if her methods are arguably...less than morally righteous.

  I only ran into him once in all my playthroughs...In Rex Hotel (Goodneighbor). I convinced him to head back to sanctuary (minutemen). But as we left goodneighbor, he ran right into a firefight between supermutants and the gunners that hang out by Mass Fusion...he got killed in the crossfire. It was sort of sad...I mean he made it that long only to get mowed down because of me. lol

  Interesting! I had one character that I was trying to make that moral jump too...but got cold feet and wiped out the Nuka world gangs instead. Cause, you know mass murder is so much better than leading raiders :/

  Masons, The Biomech, all the way up to level 41 and a bit, it was a blast to play, the imaginative fusion between man and machine will usually always draw me in, weapons selection was for me very difficult, I have never come across so many ledgendary enhanced weapons in one play through, settled for a frost damage pipe early on, with a gattling laser taking over late game, great fun

  Name: Diane Turner
  Difficulty: Survival
  Level: 76
  Theme: Fusion Specialist
  Primary Stat: Intelligence
  Secondary Stat: Endurance
  Primary Weapon: Kneecapper Gatling Laser
  Secondary Weapon: Neverending Laser Rifle
  Armor: BOS Sturdy Combat Armor
  Power Armor: Atom Cats T-60f Legendary Set
  Faction: Brotherhood of Steel
  Rank: Sentinel
  
  Basically, I built a character around Fusion Cores but extended it to include Fusion Cells for early game. It was a lot of fun, and I think I shall make an RP profile for her.

  My combo character of both my builds, the Warlord / Atom's Bulwark

  Level: A lofty 110, had to check just now and was surpised how high he got!

  Class / Playstyle: Fusion of my builds, has all the perks from both. Tough, shooty, swings a big green hammer like nobody's business.

  Interesting: I had a lot of fun with this character and he has more than 10 days of game time. Been all over the Commonwealth and beyond and was actually built with the base game and continuously grew with each of the DLC releases, specifically with Far Harbor and the evolution of the Warlord into Atom's Bulwark, and then back into the Warlord 2.0 for Nuka World. One of my favorite gaming experiances of all time!

  The character I played the most was my first when the game came out. nothing special, just tanked and died a lot. Joined BoS for the massive robot and F3 feels.

  Character I have enjoyed the most is a gunslinger/samurai chick. Alternate start mod was revolutionary for me.

  Not including my first playthrough which was way too bland to remember anythng, my longest was my Ringleader build

  Level: around level 60, I prefer shorter level 40-50 playthroughs but I just enjoyed this one a little extra

  Class/playstyle: essentially a heavy weapons support gunner who uses companions, heavy weapons, and explosives excessively (next to no armor to add the need for companion coordination

  Interesting aspects: It was really fun to finally embrace heavy weapons while staying away from being an overall tank. Kind of a glass cannon which is just super fun. Also using companions and having my own kind of group of roughnecks who all had my back just added to the fun of roleplaying
