Videos games aren’t supposed to be realistic. I’m not supposed to put myself in the position of a real socom or seal or delta or recons or X18 for that matter. I don’t want to.play a video game that represents reality. That’s not what video games are about. Video games are supposed to be void of reality. Destiny, baldurs gate, elder scrolls, Mario, metal gear, etc… That’s what video gaming is supposed to be. Not real situations that could/would occur like call of duty. CoD is a garbage game and it’s offensive for them to remaster the bullshit and then expect people to pay for the bullshit that they couldn’t justify having paid for when the game(s] was first released. Do not fall for the Microsoft trap

    But my gold pieces should have weight! It’s unrealistic that I can carry around 100k gold and 50+ sets of armor!

    /s

    I hate these people too. Make your own mods if you want to suffer, I certainly don’t. I’m more concerned that many RPGs devolve into Murder Hobo Simulator 2024 within an hour of starting, but hey, that’s games.

      Someone made a comment about why we have inventory limits in Skyrim and Starfield. I grew up in the era where it was common to micromanage your inventory. There’s literally casual games of people organizing their Diablo 2-esque inventory.

      So it never crossed my mind why we have limits.

      After playing Elden Ring, I’m convinced.

      Inventory weight is really really stupid.
