proceeds to instantly sell it at the next merchant

You... Sell things? I'm not even sure that's legal, you most horde everything especially rare potions that would ease certain game bosses quite well.

I immediately sell any old gear as soon as I upgrade. Potions and shit definitely get horded though.

This is so me actually. I can't say exactly why but in some games using potions feel like cheating. Same with other temporary buff items lol

Sadly, this adventure was in the BotW engine.

In modern games it's more like finding 100 "Speak to X" entries in your journal and then futilely trying to remember what the fuck you are supposed to talk to them about because you acquired these quests 50 hours ago (often without any interaction from the player) and the game refuses to tell you. Bonus points when it's actually a delivery stage for a fetch quest and when you find this NPC they just say "thanks bro for helping me out" and that's it (last few BioWare games are especially guilty of that). And you have no idea what the hell did you do because it was so long ago.

Sounds like me at work.

A thousand generation is old af, neanderthals probably still walk the earth when the sword was forged.

It'd be cool to see NPCs reacting like this when that happens.

Rusty Chicken Sword can't cut butter.
