[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 9381838, member: 93670"] IME with those old edition sheets it tended to start out pretty well calculated & slowly drift a bit with generally good faith (even if [I]sometimes[/I] lacking) efforts until there was a significant overhaul due to large consumable burn or noteworthy item churn making a notable chunk of the old stuff no longer a thing to be carried. OTOH with 5e & [URL='https://media.wizards.com/2022/dnd/downloads/DnD_5E_CharacterSheet_FormFillable.pdf']this abomination[/URL] it is immediately ignored at chargen and if the GM ever says "how much are you carrying" or "backpacks only have a 30 pound capacity, what are you carrying?" it is either blown off with a dismissive exasperated "TrUStMeI'mGoOd" or the table needs to sit there watching bob look up & calculate it from scratch no matter how often or recent it was last asked. Unless there is a log/tracking(?) sheet for inventory that was not mentioned with the others I expect that this new sheet will continue to hate-glares of bored players upset that the GM is not just tRuStInG bob's claim. Bottomless inventory is powerful enough that I've seen multiple Isekai anime and light novels where it's one of the gifts granted by truck-kun to the OP Protagonist yet 5e and seemingly onednd bends over backwards to give it to PCs under penalty of those bored hate-glares if challenged by the gm without calling it out or giving the gm any tools to handle the impact of unlimited inventory capacity.
