Obligatory "The inventory is too small" Complaint.

New player here. Love the game but the inventory size breaks immersion completely. Just make each item take up 1 position on the grid and increase the size of inventory, there's really no reason to keep it small outside of wanting to break up actually playing the game.

It's a horrible experience.

It doesn't even need to be that much bigger for it to be a good one either. Extra 2 rows and I think most people would be happy.

I understand limited bag space does make choosing items you keep more difficult, but at the same time, there is a point where it's too small, and requires too much fiddling around with. And I believe PoE was there 12 years ago.
+1

The inventory space was reasonable before all of the added items came in to PoE1.

Right now skill gems, trial keys, and other random items take up so much space sometimes I only have enough room to pick up a couple actual pieces of gear. Making money on stash tabs is fine. But I have a shit load of stash tabs, and I am still annoyed by the actual inventory. What's the point?
1-2 more rows would be great.
let me pay for it idc.

They made items like spirit shields take one more row of space for some reason.
In the first game, it fits in a 2x2 squares.
Here they made it in a 2x3 for no other reason than waste space.
And it clearly looks like the icon fits in a 2x2. But they just moved the PNG down a bit to waste space cause who knows for what other reason.

Super +1

It's one of the most annoying & anti-fun things about the game, designed to make you give up drops/carry less.

On its own, it would be annoying enough, but it's combined with items taking enormous amounts of space just to take space... not to mention combined with the utterly retarded 6 portal limit, which shouldn't exist, it's a triple middle finger.

It's one of the most artificial legacy things carried over from the Diablo 1 days for zero good reason. I despise it.

No please not, i hate the 1x1 inventory designs, items just feel so tiny and unimportant in that size.

I don't think we need a larger character inventory. What we need is separate character inventory tabs for:
- waystones
- currency
- quest items (some of the quest items take up a lot of space)
- lastly, keep the regular inventory the same (for looting items)

This character inventory mechanic is ONE thing that D4 got right.
