Yeah, I think a lot of those people have moved on to adhd now and same thing 🫤
Do you
-
Go through the trouble to smelt and deconstruct everything for an abundance of raw materials you could do whatever your heart desires with?
-
Find a merchant and sell everything, so you'll get some money out of it at least?
-
Dump everything on the ground right then and there?
sell everything to belathor
wait 3 days for gold reset, stoic figure staring at the shop door as the sun and stars swirl around
ifIhadasisterI’dsellherinasecond.wav
use the money to buy Breezehome
just put shit in Breezehome cause waiting for belathor to find his pocket change sucks
steal everything in the game
lug it back to Breezehome
put it the chest by the bed
multiple trips to clear dwemer ruins cause those robospiders are so heavy
gotta
the chest in Breezehome crashes my game if I open it now
Lydia in background says “I’m sworn to carry your burdens”

waiting is for losers, quicksave, kill them, quickload. Gold reset.
Yeah, no, I'm most definitely number 3.
Can't be arsed.
4. All of the aboveI keep them in storage containers and then just never use them
I get the meme, the meme is funny, I do this too, but this is not OCD, please don't:
https://thebodyisnotanapology.com/magazine/3-myths-that-trivialize-ocd/
Didn’t mean to trivialize, I thought it was ocd, for me at least, because the disorder of everything you can grab in the game makes me feel stressed but yoinking it all makes me feel better, but then I’m stressed because I need to order the literal everything I’ve grabbed and so I collect try to organize it but the game makes it so difficult that eventually I have to quit it cause it takes too much time out of my life. But that’s self diagnosing, maybe for me it’s just a compulsion to bring order
I don't want to invalidate your experience, and I also don't want to armchair diagnose or anything like that, so I won't even go in to whether I think that is or isn't OCD, but if the anxiety feels overwhelming, I'd suggest talking to someone about it.
I can say from my own experience of definitely having OCD that it literally dictates everything, there is not a single decision I can make in my day that isn't impacted by it, it is all consuming and on a bad day doing the "wrong" thing (like touching the wrong side of an object) can cause a complete breakdown.
I'm genuinely not trying to have a go at you, mental illness can have different levels and different people experience things differently, I also don't think you meant any malice by using the term (and really appreciate your edit!). I just think it's important to be aware of the language we use and the impact it can have.
Just wanted you to know where I was coming from when I typed OCD! Cause everything in life colors how we see a funny lil pic. Trivializing your struggles isn't right! Hope your day is good and you have at least a teehee moment or two!
I appreciate your explaining, and also you taking my comment on board in the way it was meant.
It's already night time here, but I'll do my best before bed haha, hope you have a nice day too!
I'd really love to see an Inventory Management game since that seems like a huge part of most modern games.
In the game you're like a little gnome who lives in a bag of holding and its your task to give the right items to the hand reaching in the bag, or put away items as they enter the bag
There's a few that focus around inventory management. Backpack Hero and Dredge come to mind.
Save Room is a game that takes the real game parts of Resident Evil 4 and makes it a standalone game.
i am so glad shulker boxes exist (and yet i somehow still run out of space)
My Witcher 3 Stash inventory was so big the game lagged for multiple seconds every time I moved an item :3
Same but FO:NV
Big same 😂 I'll tell myself "you're already fully equipped for the rest of the game and also have plenty of gold! You don't need to pick up ANYTHING, much less everything" and yet..
There just might be 4 gold in that urn over there though...
Yeah and the pockets of the guard looking right at me might contain a trivial for my level healing potion or a something else I'm never gonna use! Totally worth the risk!
Always upgrade your strength, so you can carry more stuff.
The only good game with limited inventory is death Stranding, change my mind.
Perhaps inevitably, VLDL did a skit on this... (YT: v=kwQ84hVrMJo)
