I’m making another post about this topic since previous ones didn’t get much traction and are now buried.
First off, credit where it’s due:
I was genuinely happy to see this in the recent patch notes:
It’s a step in the right direction, and I appreciate the effort.
Now onto my main grievances.
In my opinion, the current inventory system is not fun. It’s tedious, immersion-breaking, and feels more like busywork than actual gameplay. Constantly running between chests, trying to remember where I put something, is just frustrating and kills the pace.
My suggestions:
- Introduce a simple stash system located in towns. It could be upgradeable using Plague Ichor to keep it balanced and thematic, or placing items in your house could increase your stash size, similar to how it works in New World, or even a combination of both.
- Fix the “Deposit Similar” function. If I use it on a chest(or stash tab
) that only has weapons, all weapons in my inventory should move there.
- Offer pre-furnished houses or house blueprints for players who don’t enjoy decorating. It would be a great quality-of-life option.
There’s probably a more streamlined, user-friendly solution out there. Right now, the system feels a bit samey and uninspired. I truly believe you can come up with something much more enjoyable, a system that matches the quality and satisfaction found throughout the rest of the game.
