Escape from Tarkov is one of those games where you need to find
and build your weapons, not build but you have to upgrade your
weapons based on things that you can loot and scavenge from
different parts of the map.

Players spend hours and hours to upgrade their weapons which will
give them an upper hand on the enemy in later fights, but Escape from Tarkov have a character wipe system which resets players progress and everybody is forced to start from scratch so that the newcomers won’t have to face too many difficulties adapting the game.
