    What do you do when you come across a chest and you're already full? I use whatever I have too much of and take the chest.

    I hate this so much because I am a serial scavenger. Leaving trout that I could take but can't because my weight is maxed out is nails on the chalkboard!

    Use what I have and take the chest.

    I go through my inventory for hours seeing what I need, what I want, and what I maight be able to do without. In the end... I'm taking that loot!

    Depends what it is. Like the elith bottle in Tales of Graces, if I'm missing 300 elith and the chest has 320 elith and it's like "You don't have enough room" I'll take the 300 and discard the extra 20. On the other hand, if I'm missing 20 and the chest has 320, I'm going to leave it alone

    I don't know how well that translates to those who haven't played the game but it basically amounts to how much I need vs how much I have

    So much this. Even if the chest contains literally nothing of use, I still feel bad if I leave it.

    I can't be bothered to come back, so I'll either make room in my inventory or else leave it forever. It kills me every time.

    Skyrim is the absolute WORST for this.

    You can increase your carrying capacity, but only if you invest heavily in stamina.

    So, if you're a mage you have to sell half your stuff every ten minutes. (I exaggerate only slightly)

    This very problem is the reason I'm stuck in the game...

    I will take everything that isn't nailed down and use what I must to take more.
