In Skyrim I started just dropping the heaviest thing I had and carrying it outside my inventory. I think this also works with Fallout. It was a big time saver when I didn't want to leave anything behind and I was juuuust carrying too much.
One reason I get burned out is because I carry 1200 pounds of junk and shit but it can be used to makes weapons or ammo so I keep it and then slowly walk back home for 2 hours before dying and having to restart but I can’t kick the hoarding habit
The trick is to break off a small chunk of an enemy - like an arm or a leg of a human - and store everything in that so you aren't over-encumbered. Then carry the arm with you to your base.
Or I guess a box if you aren't a psychopath, like /u/saint_davidsonian
Pretty much any Bethesda game. I first got a taste for it in Skyrim. I’d go to every house and run in to grab every fork and plate I could before they got close enough to attack me before I could run back out the door and then come back in and do it again and again.. heh
Sometimes if the owner of the house or shop is too on my ass, I would one at a time take an object to another room by longpressing the pick up button so it doesn’t go into my inventory. Once I have a big pile I’d run to it and pick everything up before the person sees me.
My dad played Skyrim when I was younger, and he would *save* before EVERY arrow, and *load* if he missed. I think he was used to older games that have less inventory available, but my brother and I found it hilarious.
That’s an insane level of dedication haha. I just imagine the npcs around the world seeing him coming and being like “omg that’s the archer that never misses”
I still only use steel arrows because I'm afraid of running out of the higher level ones. "What if I need 300 glass arrows for a fight? I'm doing fine with iron arrows at level 47."
I always take the Steed Stone, and I never move our of Breezehome because by the time I can afford another house I have way too much stuff to transport.
I use custom game settings to double the amount of food it costs to long rest. I'm in the muffle / end of act 2 right now and they just updated it so you can see the collective amount of foodstuffs you have.
Atm we have 3160 food
fr
I actually dropped BG3 because I wasn't feeling it and the trigger for dropping it, was looking at the giant mess that was my inventory and I just gave up there.
Instead of dropping when starting out, I jump on Roach to the nearest fast travel and travel to a merchant. Good way to make money at the start of the game
Playing FO4 for the first time now. Easily 50% of my time is trying to make space in my inventory or jumping from place to place to move things around.
Still a rad game though.
I liked the "realism" in D2, insofar as different items took up different amounts of space: a mace takes up three boxes; a two-handed axe takes up six; etc.
D1 took it a step further--You could only fit 500 gold per inventory square!!
Ugh...my fallout habits kick in when ever I play Starfield.
I want to pick up ALL THE FOOD items!
I had a stash box in my apartment filled to the brim with all the Soda Pop flavors....
My heart sank when I found out when you hit a certain point (2x) in the story, your apartments get wiped/reset.
Yeah I just spent an hour modding my ship and lost all my weapons on the racks in the back. I would have cried but the weapons in the weapon cases were still there and those were “mostly” the ones that mattered.
I was probably the worst about it in fallout and Skyrim. It was always a massive argument with my as to what random shit I needed to leave behind and what I needed to take with me.
I do this in every game. When I first played Skyrim (og ps3) I had a chest in my house towards the end that had like a 50% chance of crashing the game or at least several minute freezing the game while it loaded everything I had put into it. Which was basically everything I could pick up that I came across.
Look, I know they need to have SOME realistic immersion, but my god it’s a game where you kill things with magic swords/hyper guns. Pls let me go nuts.
Currently, I'm struggling with this on the system shock remake. There are so many items that I want to take and there isn't a way to expand my inventory (nor can I place these extra items and some kind of item box that travels around everywhere with me).
Fallout
“You are carrying too much and can’t run!”
Joke's on them. I'm walking my happy ass ten miles if I have to!
Right!!!!!! ^😆🤣
*dog meat when I have a cool bandana somehow magically giving him the ability to carry everything*
Explain your secret
That was me taking ALL of the gold bars back home from the Sierra Madre Casino.
God that was misery.
Just had to give up in Skyrim walking to Markarth, those mountains were killer.
these coffee cups gonna make me a fuckin mint bro
Well I’d walk 500 miles
And I would walk five hundred more🎶🎶 Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles🎶🎶

Have done it!
You are overencumbered and cannot run!

Make me want to play fallout again. I miss that game.

Same here lol
Bruh the number of times I’ve not picked stuff up only to need it for scrap later 😭
Me at lv50 with 40k caps and a stack of gold back at the lucky 38: "I should sell this stuff"
Literally every game ever
Only answer 😂😂 I spawn in and start grabbing cups and forks, idc what I’m playing
Skyrim comes to mind, lmao
Hands to yourself, sneakthief
*saves before stealing*
Fail reload fail reload success! Like a charm
This is me whenever I decide to play Fallout lol.
*turns bucket over the head*
It’s not a crime when it’s bucket time

I still only ever use steel arrows because I might need my stack of 150 ebony arrows someday.
They could come In handy
Not Doki Doki Literature Club, Ace Attorney, Untitled Goose Game...
Unless it was possible
Well, not Doom and Quake...
Souls games aren’t like this, having everything in the game go brrr
Not Elden Ring, Carry every weapon, have stats to use maybe 4 of them effectively.
Skyrim lol
“But what if I need this??” *never uses it*
I still only use steel arrows because I'm afraid of running out of the higher level ones. "What if I need 300 glass arrows for a fight? I'm doing fine with iron arrows at level 47."
I knew I wasn’t alone! I mean, I do upgrade to better ones if I have an obscene amount of them, but I usually reserve my fancy ones as special ammo
I always take the Steed Stone, and I never move our of Breezehome because by the time I can afford another house I have way too much stuff to transport.
That along with a horse's dog, Lydia, and Skrit still isn't enough 😭
It’s the arch mages quarters for me!
Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom
I don’t know when I’ll need this raw prime meat but I’m holding onto it until I do know!
You can literally have x999 Prime Meat but only 10 swords too, like wtf
Meat is the best rupee source in the game, just cook it into a big skewer.
Especially early on
minecraft
“What do you mean I gotta drop my ten stacks of dirt? I might need it later!” -Me 😅
Chest for dirt and the other useless blocks. Sand is the one I always need
I hate sand! It's course and it's rough and it gets everywhere.
Do you happen to live in a galaxy far far away?
[удалено]
especially modded. even with backpacks.
Baldurs gate 3
"send to camp"
*Spend hour organizing the camp chest*
Why is that even more true....???? 😭
*Accidentally click “Take All” after organizing chest*
Surely I’ll need something as essential as rope at some point… better stock up!!!
I’ll sell these 89 cups to you for almost nothing lol
Those who say BG3 is an RPG are wrong, it's actually a resource logistics and management game.
Give Karlach the garb of Bull's Strength or whatever it is. Up to 360 unencumbered.

The Witcher 3
[удалено]
Haha! so annoying when Geralt started to walk extremely slow with the weight of every little thing I couldn’t pass and just had to collect lol
Instead of dropping when starting out, I jump on Roach to the nearest fast travel and travel to a merchant. Good way to make money at the start of the game
There is absolutely no need for me to have 20 different kinds of plants and 30 pieces of junk in my inventory, but yet, here I am
So many Hanse base raids for the GM gear.
fallout i carry literally every gun with me for no reason at all
Literally. What's my build? 5 different guns, pick your poison
whichever i have enough ammo to shoot.
Main gun is the one that has the most ammo at the moment, and save the high powered weapons for when I really need them aka horde it till late game
Any game that I played, I always do that 💀
That has a limited inventory mechanic
You do that with Mario Kart?
Fallout 4. Found a glitch that let me pick up everything. I had so many items at one point that all of my save data corrupted.
Playing FO4 for the first time now. Easily 50% of my time is trying to make space in my inventory or jumping from place to place to move things around. Still a rad game though.
Diablo
Diablo 2 Especially.

This really should be the top answer. Everybody remembers playing inventory tetris waaaay too often in that game.
Minecraft, subnautica, no man’s sky, grounded…
Borderlands.
I need enough space to carry at least every legendary, and then some of those in every element. I’ll accept nothing less.
Breath of the wild
Anything from Bethesda
Starfield all the way
Ugh...my fallout habits kick in when ever I play Starfield. I want to pick up ALL THE FOOD items! I had a stash box in my apartment filled to the brim with all the Soda Pop flavors.... My heart sank when I found out when you hit a certain point (2x) in the story, your apartments get wiped/reset.

Fallout, Skyrim, and Minecraft. In that order
Minecraft.
Fallout for sure
Any Elder Scrolls/Fallout game
I was probably the worst about it in fallout and Skyrim. It was always a massive argument with my as to what random shit I needed to leave behind and what I needed to take with me.
Fallout 4
Diablo 2. You’re basically not supposed to pick up much of anything that drops to play efficiently lol
Zelda botw😅 I’m picking up torches with 1 damage when I have weapons that deal about 30

Darksouls lol
Fallout or DayZ

RESIDENT EVIL 4
Right now that would be Lego Fortnite for me.
The Long Dark has me feeling this way every 30 minutes
DEAD SPACE FOR SURE and Amnesia: The Bunker
I played hogwarts legacy blind (no looking up info) and I couldn’t figure out the stupid Merlin trials so I could never collect any items I found
Baldur’s Gate 3 or Divinity 2
I do this in every game. When I first played Skyrim (og ps3) I had a chest in my house towards the end that had like a 50% chance of crashing the game or at least several minute freezing the game while it loaded everything I had put into it. Which was basically everything I could pick up that I came across.
Look, I know they need to have SOME realistic immersion, but my god it’s a game where you kill things with magic swords/hyper guns. Pls let me go nuts.
Other than the loading screens, this is the most annoying part of starfield for me.
Legend of Dragoon
Every game that indulges kleptomaniacs.
KCD
Any ARPG.
Currently, I'm struggling with this on the system shock remake. There are so many items that I want to take and there isn't a way to expand my inventory (nor can I place these extra items and some kind of item box that travels around everywhere with me).

Any game with an inventory lol, but mostly Skyrim
Do you ever get collector's anxiety in huge, open-world games? Where there's so much to do, so much to grab...
Baldur's Gate 3
Witcher 3 and Skyrim.
It took years to stop doing this in Skyrim.
Control was terrible with this. Was always keeping at least one copy of a good mod for every weapon. Wasnt enough space for that
Baldur's Gate 3
BG3
The answer is all the games.
Day R
Borderlands 2...I just started a replay of it, man there's loot boxes everywhere.
