minus-squareCredibly_Human@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 day agoJust because a bad mechanic has a purpose doesn’t mean it’s not bad. I hate being forced to think about that shit. I love a partial solution in Cyberpunk where healing items simply have a cool down. Odenst make lore sense really, but you can flavour text that up. Weightlimits mostly serve to add annoying inventory management to a game that is supposed to be an escape. They should design their games better to not need the player to do that or horde things. Its part of why I hate how “loot” is typically done.
