So you don't want such trivial things like ammo and encumbrance to limit your char. Rules are for the other guys. You want your char to soar to uncharted heights, but such rules chafe and bind your char to the ground.Same process, different priority. I don't care about inventory management period.
Also, based on the random animosity against videogames, I'm going to assume you don't know, but most video games with an inventory DO track ammo and make you play annoying inventory minigames. I don't like those parts of them either, but at least they're automatic.

I said the want to emulate the fantasy stories that don't care, not that none of them care. Also, I'm pretty sure LotR isn't the only fantasy story and it certainly doesn't include all the tropes one might or might not want to play out. It's a nice place to read about and watch, but I wouldn't want to play a TTRPG there.
Is that about right? Like I said, I have had a player quit on the spot with pretty much that thought process.
