We've all seen it, and we all love it. The "Level Up"-prompt from various games, which is usually accompanied by an ability point or some other means of beefing up your character. This will naturally be the case for the highly anticipated Fallout 4 as well, and this time we'll see alot of it. A lot!

In fact, you won't just be levelling up your character but also your perks:

"You'll still level up via XP, and each level increase will still give you a point to spend on a perk, but now those perks have varying XP levels of their own", a Bethesda representative told Official Xbox Magazine. "It's perk-ception, essentially, and means that, should you theoretically play long enough to max out every tier of every single one gaining untold buffs and no doubt all kinds of horrendous real-world illnesses in the process - you'll top off with a total of 275."

In other word, you'll be at it for a long, long time.
