Starfield and Baldur’s Gate 3 both weigh the player down with encumbrance. Love it or hate it, it seems like it’s here to stay.

    One of my questions on Starfield - can I roleplay as a hoarder, picking up every possible piece of junk - cups, pencils, etc - and store it all in a couple of cabinets or containers as some kind of infinitely huge repo?

    …because I swear to god, for whatever reason that seems to be my favorite part of Skyrim and Fallout 3 for whatever reason.

    If that mechanic isn’t in Starfield then I lose like half my motivation to play :)

      Based on what I was reading last night, there’s a chest in The Lodge basement that has unlimited storage space. The trick is, you just have to be able to get your stuff there.

      You definitely can do that. It seems like random objects aren’t useful as materials like in Fallout 4, but there is definitely a bunch of random crap laying around that you can take.

      I’d say there’s a lot more clutter items you can’t take than before, too, but if you wanna just vacuum what’s not nailed down there will be a good deal of that. ,
