Can you use the old system with no issue if you have 100 items in your inventory? With 200? With 300?

Funny enough, I never really hoarded items in the original games as much as I did with the newer ones so it was never an issue. Only carried a few items around at a time, and only one weapon.

Must be a trait from playing Bethesda RPGs so much that is rubbing off in FO3 and NV.

Fallout 3/NV so far. fallout 1/2 system worked well for those games but.you could end up with a rather large amount of gear to scroll through. Fallout Tactics was a pretty good system because you could see more. It's hard to compare everything since there just wasn't as much random junk in the earlier games. As far as anything goes I liked skyrims system the best since you could really examine inventory items, zoom in on them and really take a good look at everything.

You'd really have to cheat up your carry weight in the old games to hold that much.. (which I did on multiple occasions.) Still seemed to work out well because you still didn't need to carry around multiples of weapons. In F3 and NV you had that repair system so it was quite helpful to carry around multiple weapons.

Yeah that's my point, i think maximum number of items i had was about 30-35. One column inventory is only suitable for games with very few items you can carry.

I would prefer Fallout 4 had a table system with bookmarks, like one table with several rows and columns for guns, another for meds, another for ammo, etc...

Personally I prefer the FO:3/NV inventory system. While I never really had any trouble with the old inventory from 1 and 2, the current system is far faster and easier to navigate IMO.

It would be nice if they would follow theme with it though, list or icon; and not use graphic design menus for merchants. Especially since the other menus are all 3D.

I've gotta go with the F3/NV inventory screens. Not as colorful as the originals but easier to use.

I think it's weird how everything's on the pip-boy now, though. That's one crazy device, man.

I actually prefer just a list in my inventory that I can sort well (I think Skyrim was almost on track actually - I liked the "favorites" idea even.)

But I would like to see item descriptions again.

Personally I don't need an item image in inventory when I can just look at it in the game works (maybe a button press to bring up the modem in inventory.)

I give FO 1/2 's inventory props for flavor text, and that's about all I liked about it.
