Description
There's something that needs to be said about how you can lug insane amounts of inventory items around with you in action and RPG games, and yet not suffer from the load (a wonderful example is how Agent 47 can carry any number of handguns, a sniper rifle case, fibre wire AND his laptop, concealed, into the pool area of the Budapest hotel in H1 in spite of the fact that he is wearing nothing but swimming trunks). If real life ever seeped into said games, I imagine it would be something like the above picture.Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II property of LucasArts and Obsidian Entertainment.

haha... yeah. this is how I imagined it.. I try to sell as much of my unused items as I can, or convert them into components and chemicals for upgrades.

It annoys me when games limit your ability to carry stuff but I suppose there should be a line drawn. Probably somewhere around the point where you have more weapons and ammo than the local military.

Well, the alternative would be "in their trousers", in the manner of Guybrush Threepwood.

This is great! I love Atton with the dead salvager. I always thought that mission was a bit weird in the game.

The answer to the never ending stream of items that take no space is: Flat space tecknology!

Or maybe it's like the case of that weird monk in the Raymond E. Feist Riftwar novels, who had a seemingly bottom bag, but actually used a "rift" in the fabric of reality to put said objects in an unused warehouse somewhere else.

I absolutly agree with everything you just said here! Including the part about Agent 47! It's just one of those things that's best not to think about when you play the game!

I suppose the games wouldn't be much fun if you couldn't haul out five Uzis/blaster carbines in a heartbeat.
But yeah, games like these are loads more fun if you don't think too much.

Don't ever put a picture this big up again. All the kids are off school and logged on DA...this took forever to load.
It would be funny though, if you had to get a cart to carry all your stuff. Pink ones, with Gizkas sewn on them.

*Only* fifteen blasters?
I mean, it's nice that they never imposed a weight limit, so you can have as much as you like on you. But it really does make you scratch your head after awhile.

I never counted the rifles and stuff, so fifteen blaster *pistols* might be more accurate.

You've got to wonder what they were thinking.
But then again, do you really want to give up all those nifty weapons?

No!

They should help Mira somehow - there is now way she can carry this much by herself!

Hee, I love that both Revan and Exile carry around an invisible spacesuit with them. (Revan after Leviathan, Exile after Peragus)

Come on, there's nothing wrong with every member of the party carrying four rifles and three swords a piece!
