✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fresh take on encumbrance that D&D fans will appreciate
- Small but active community (14 endorsements, 573 downloads)

For tabletop RPG fans who want D&D 5E's encumbrance rules in their game. Also for players who find vanilla carry weight too forgiving and want a stricter, more strategic inventory system. Skip if you prefer simple, arcade-style gameplay or don't care about encumbrance realism.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check if the mod requires a new save or works with existing ones, as gameplay overhauls often do.
- If you use other mods that affect carry weight, load this one last to ensure its changes take priority.
- Test with a small inventory first to see how the new encumbrance affects your movement speed.
