I was so confused when I started that game. I thought I'd get arrested or something for looting.

When I first played Morrowind, I was quite surprised when people took offense to me robbing them of all they owned. Now when I play games I'm never sure if theft is a crime or not.

And Morrowind still makes it far too easy to empty complete rooms in NPCs' homes. They just can't be in the same room as you.

It's certainly more of a traditional role-playing game, i.e. you have to pretend that you can't rob everyone blind. The whole money system in that game collapses immediately, if you don't...

It is the worst thing about the games. I hate having to loot so much.

Eh, commoner loot in Witcher is mostly chunk anyway.

Btw, there's an auto-loot mod.

I need these 152 loafs of bread and 211 quills of water to survive my next archigriffin.

That sounds out of character. A Witcher never works for free.
