    Loot is great when it’s unique, or at least rare. Unique weapons and lore items in Dark Souls come to mind.

    But yeah, loot that just fills up your inventory (or worse, your equip load) until you go sell it is just Worse Money.

      I wish games like that had an auto loot feature where you take what you can use, then hire an NPC or something to go sell the rest. I think that could be a cool, immersive middle ground.
