What are you guys doing with books / keys?
Read them or use them and then put them in your storage in the camp? Or throw them away? Any kind of way to know which keys are used / which books are read and which are not? I carry around some notes and books i found because i don't want to miss out on an option like "hey i found this note on a body in a cave and it mentions you" ... Or is there nothing like that and i can just throw away everything i find after reading them? Plus books are fairly heavy if you're carring around 100 of them xD ...

There will be a key ring in the game to hold all of your keys.

As for books, I'll burn them like I am a republican....

You can right click them in your inventory and then send them to Camp, in the Camp there is a chest where they will all be and then you can move them to a book shelf in the Camp for if you're worried about aesthetics.

It was good news to hear about the addition of the key ring (even better if we had an option for the keys "vanish" once used).

So apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, has anyone any insight on inventory management for all those paper "notes" and "handbills" we can find lying around EA (Blighted Village, Teahouse etc) many with content that might be useful later in the game ?

So while I'm sure many players will discard them or burn them ...

Assuming we want to keep them and not write everything down ...

It would be great to hear if anyone is aware of a better solution than the "book" which I found (I think !) in the hole behind the wall, close to the windmill in EA , cos' but there are so many "clues" and "hints" its difficult to keep track.
Thanks !

I generally just right click read any book I find (I wish they'd be marked as read after you do so you know which to skip in the future). Some of them can give Sage Rerolls. I pick up any and all keys I find in case I'll need them.

I just read them and move on, there are more important things to carry around.

If there is no other way in the full release, then thats how i did it too. Like.. read EVERYTHING the moment you find it AND turn the pages too. With that you know that atleast you "triggered" everything which needs to be triggered, like informations for the future.

I am scared about one thing tho.. If i have read the book but i don't have it with me, will i still be able to say something like "hey dude look ive got / saw your letter from your dead mother" or will i not be able to say it if i only read it but don't have it with me? Thats why i'm carrying everything around and the inventory looks like ♥♥♥♥ and i need to scroll like couple times to get to the bottom haha
