What is this mentality?

I hate it, the only game it has ever helped me in is Cave Story.

i defeated this shit mentality.
whenver i go "i might need them later" i also think "but then i will never use it".
I just go, "fuck this i need it now" and use them.

They're always useless potions like "Potion of Seastride" or what have you.

>>339143334
I mostly forget useable items. But I got around and changed that mentality eventually and actually use good weapons in Fire Emblem now. Instead of trying to fight everything with iron and steel weapons.

>>339144168
But how can I be sure that Bethesda didn't prepare some sort of underwater temple that requires you to have Potion of Waterbreathing. I can't just toss them away like that.

>underwater temple
Trust me, Skyrim doesnt have anything that fun

Even the temporary stat boosts?

easy to say when you're not playing alchemist
>inventory is just 1 dagger, crossbow and light armor
>also 200 weight ingredients and same number of potions, each could easily kill a dragon

>>339143067
What if the game have some sort of high score in the end. So those unwasted potion and old ass equipment you never sell will add to your high score?

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

As someone who does this I'll explain my reasoning:

To me using items like that feels like cheating. If I'm not able to beat a fight without them I have this inate fear that I'm just cheating myself because I was not actually prepared for the fight, so I shouldn't be able to beat it. But those items make it so I can beat it. So I don't use them and continue not to until the end where I think to myself, "Man those probably actually would have been useful." But I continue never using them and just repeat the cycle.

Autism. I know.
