Or you need to spend half of the games managing inventory.

On the other hand, I enjoy this (to a certain degree, mind you). Going through all the random crap I've picked up off the ground in Skyrim to maximize selling potential, moving things around in Diablo II for the same reason, picking through my vault in Destiny 2 to figure out which guns to keep and which to dismantle, organizing my various bits and bobs in FFXIV:ARR across my retainers so that everything is where it should be... I kind of dig that kind of stuff because its a bit of a management game within the regular game and a nice break from mindlessly murdering everything (and a bit of a "ooh presents on Christmas" kind of feel when you dig through all the stuff you've acquired).

On the gripping (third) hand, sometimes it does become more of a second job almost... Destiny 2, as an example again, feels like a chore sometimes keeping on top of all the various currencies and whether this random gun/armor that dropped is an upgrade over one of the multitude of other options I've had collecting dust for the past couple of years. "But maybe I'll use it if they buff [gun type/perk/build]!" I think as I toss it into the pile, only to forever become an icon I ignore in DIM.
