BG3 infinite arrows vs BG1 arrow management

[FriendlyArm]

Will anyone miss having to collect ammunition in BG3 if you played the originals?

[Quillithe]

Yeah. But at the same time I admit it's fine, it's not like BG 1 actually made arrows more than a mild annoyance taking up backpack space anyway

Well it did provide a fun management aspect to the originals, but seeing how horrendous BG3's inventory and its management is I'll say its a good thing.

Kind of. The variety of Arrows were neat in BG1 until you found that Plentiful Quiver of +1. Then you just kind of forgot they were even a thing.

I mean, magic arrows were cool, but managing stacks of regular arrows is something I absolutely won't miss. It was basically just a chore.
I have memories of using a save editor to give me the infinite quiver of +1 arrows at the start of BG2 just to not have to deal with it.

Don't need that mechanic for normal arrows. Already exists for magical ones however.

I won't miss it just like I don't miss every other chest or loot pile in NWN1 having stacks of normal weapon ammunition in them.

I kinda hate arrow management in games like these. As soon as I got refilling quivers in BG2, I never switched off, even if I had powerful magical arrows for notable bosses.

You'll already have a variety of magical arrow, that's still a thing. As for the regular ones, no. It was just annoying.
