      Survival games are worse, because you have a lot of useless item that won’t ever complete a quest!

    I’ve been carrying a lute I found in a cave for weeks now, still haven’t found out who it belongs to, or to what quest. I refuse to look it up though, I’ll search the entire Skyrim, if that’s what it takes.

      And this is why I hate inventory space / carry weight limitation. Let me carry every pebble I find!

        Which is why the first thing I do when stating a Bethesda RPG is type player.modav carryweight 10000 into the console.

    souls games questlines except you didn’t complete a quest but inadvertently triggered the flag to the bad ending for simply giving a hungry lady some grapes and the only way to fix it to is to beat an old smelly lady with a stick, go back in time to beat an old dragon, and stab yourself with a needle.

    I find the opposite funny, too. Tripping on a chicken and suddenly gelling like 5 “quest failed” notifications for quests I didn’t even have before then.
