Starfield and Baldur’s Gate 3 both weigh the player down with encumbrance. Love it or hate it, it seems like it’s here to stay.

And both games have mods to remove it. A non issue
“We don’t have to release a good game, if players have problems just let them mod with the tools we didn’t give them”
(not at all saying these two games are bad, or bad for encumbering though)
ampersandrew’s point was much more relevant towards a non-issue. At least in BG3’s case (can’t speak for Starfield) the game was definitely made with encumbering in mind.
And both games have a strength stat to mitigate it. Additionally making it a non-issue.
PC gamers have tools to mod games. Mostly. Console players do not have this option. Mostly. While this may not be an issue, for you, does not make this a non-issue.
Not everyone is playing on PC and can mod their games.
