Please work on inventory management a little.
I really liked the way it was done in Village. Metal scraps, gunpowder, and herbs didn't actually take up space in your inventory case. The whole UI, the item shop, all of options for interacting with your inventory seemed smoother and more user friendly in Village.

*The following things would help:

1. Mixed and unmixed herbs, and small & large resources could stack in your inventory, and be sent to your storage box.

2. Ammo can be sent to your storage box.

3. Typewriters, and Storage boxes are separate. Rather than the typewriter having a storage tab, I'd much rather open a box that is just a dedicated storage box. Maybe the merchant just carries Leon's storage box with him, makes sense considering the merchant only has a few clients.

4. Healing items can be designated as shortcuts just like weapons, and a healing animation plays when you use the item.

*Random suggestions:

Is it possible to have a random ganado somewhere in the game actually wearing Leon's jacket? You find him, kill him and get your jacket back.

Lastly some character development for Ashley, she is just so helpless. She is much better than in the original though. Her voice isn't annoying and she is nicer to look at. It would have been so cool if she would eventually learn to shoot in the later chapters. Maybe have some side quests you can do as her in the shooting range where she can eventually equip a pistol. Kind of like Sarah Conner in the Terminator series she starts off so helpless and afraid, and her arc is learning how to stand up for herself.

Lots of great additions to this game, fast selecting weapons with the mouse wheel rather than having to open your inventory and equip the weapon is probably my favorite. Seems kind of ironic that the OG RE4 was the first one that released the players from the inventory management problem only to have it be brought back when inventory hasn't been a headache in a RE game in decades.

These are weird requests knowing they will never change any of this. Your best hope is to download a mod that alters inventory management.

Lack of storage box is sad, it's iconic to the franchise after all.

The reason all the crafting stuff takes place in your case is to make you want to expand it => to need more gold than you would need otherwise => to encourage you to buy Exclusive tickets which sell for 80.000 gold each.

RE4 didn't have a storage box, and the inventory is large enough.
