Yup, that’s me. Hamster extraordinaire. I always hoard everything that isn’t bolted down, carry around 150 medpacks and I usually go for some kind of health regenerating capabilities which I prefer to use before I use medpacks so now I have 250 medpacks just in case for the boss. Then I finish the game with 245 medpacks left coz boss wasn’t really that hard and my regenerating health perk did most of the heavy lifting anyway XD
Maybe that’s an early manifestation of hoarding disorder?
Though in fairness, boxes and drawers of many things have indeed provided a lot of value through years. I also do lets say yearly cleanups where I comb through things, throw away what hasn’t been used to for a while or what doesn’t have a purpose anymore so it’s not just endless hoarding. I don’t just hoard clutter and junk.
I swear I spend more time doing inventory management in fallout than anything else in the game
I hate games with a lot of collectibles and hidden Easter egg stuff, since I’m a completionist and a hoarder, I waste so much time digging through things that lose track of the main missions and story and then the game becomes a drag
I tried a game called Crystal Project that was fun until I realized I hadn’t left the tutorial area after an hour due to feeling the need to complete all the parkour puzzles. It turned out some were to be solved later, but this isn’t obvious without spending time determining if it was a particularly hard jump, an impossible jump, or the wrong route altogether.
Lovely game but no. It’ll drive me mad. I now understand why games often present challenges sequentially and make it obvious when a challenge cannot be completed until a later time.
Been replaying BG1, oof
Ever play the legend of dragoon? Real gamers know the pain of that inventory.
32 items and no more! It was more realistic, but fuck mate. I’m playing as multiple people with dragon powers. I can suspend a little more disbelief for convenience.

Some people in the 20th century: “It’s for diviniation, right?”
Try playing a traditional Roguelike such as Shattered Pixel Dungeon. Don’t use your consumables and you’ll just die!
Struggling through Fallout Tactics right now and having to use the lockers they provide in each bunker, then moving all my ammo/healing/weapons to the next bunker. I CAN’T CARRY EVERYTHING DAMNIT!
Hoarding forever
Sort by value? unique items, invaluable Nooo

I’m playing Tunic now, and literally have no idea what the consumables even do, so I’m just holding onto them.
