Abstract
An example of an information processing system generates a composite equipment item object in which an equipment item object and an item object are composited, in response to an instruction. The information processing system generates, as a name of the composite equipment item object, a name composed of a first part, a second part following the first part, and a third part following the second part, based on a combination of the item object and the equipment item object. The information processing system causes a player character to possess the composite equipment item object.
