When you have the player give up their weapons...

... but violent conflict is nevertheless likely, shouldn't you be able to find an appropriate weapon pretty quickly?

I've pretty much gone all-in on Blades (maxing Reflex soon, no gun perks whatsoever) running around with e.g. a machete, and I'm having fun, but... I did a certain early main quest, and ZERO blades was found in the tower. Not as much as a single little knife.

Seems an oversight.

That's why I specc'ed into punching.

No matter what, you've always got your fists, lmao.
