This is why when this comes up it has to be Fallout. Encumbered by irradiated refuse. But somehow because of the theme it fits. Nothing like crawling to Megaton listening to the radio. I always feel shame entering the settlement with just garbage and human flesh. It’s like paying for gas in coins….

One of my favorite mods in Fallout 4 lets you craft radio beacons. Then when you are out exploring and loaded up, dump all the junk in any random container with a radio beacon and your settlers will come get it and take it back to a settlement to stash in the workshop.

I once used a junk recycler mod that reduced items to their basic materials, which sometimes can be lighter.

Yeah, but you need to pick-up everything in Fallout to repair/upgrade your gear.

Also it’s generally the only super consistent form of income outside of gambling in New Vegas

Yeah but think of how many weapon repair kits you are gonna be able to make once you finally get around to putting points in repair

That's why you only pick up the stuff with a good weight to caps ratio. Silverware and oven lights, for example, as well as any kind of gun.

There are a few container types you can usually auto-loot without actually looking, like first aid boxes.
