/* Weapons in the Mazes */
Many of these weapons can be, and are customized with accessories, and some can even be further modified by engineering workshops, allowing an even greater amount of personalization. Though most such customizations exist for practical purposes (improving the performance of a firearm, etc.), modifications which improve the visual or cosmetic appeal also exist. Therefore, the choice and the customization of one's own weapons can be seen as a means to express oneself, to show off one's social status, or simply to stand out and look cool.
 
== Brand names ==
 
As a stylistic choice, the weapons in the Mazes are largely lifted from the real world, right down to brand names. Observant players may have noticed that the inhabitants of the Mazes are aware of these brand names and models, despite the fact that they are all manufactured at the same facilities, by the same factories and plants. This is explained by the fact that weapons with brand names in the Mazes were simply given these names by the engineers and workers responsible for manufacturing them, as a way to differentiate series and lines of weapons. The brand and model names simply happen to match exactly those found in the real world, even if there is technically no relation with any real-world person or country.
 
Though it may seem as though this kind of coincidence is contrived, keep in mind that this was done to avoid having to [https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AKA47 rename] or [https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BlandNameProduct give bland names] to hundreds of different weapons, largely for the convenience of the players.
