There are things I usually skip in single player games. Inventory management: If your game allows to pick up junk everywhere (Skyrim, Cyberpunk, Witcher, ...) your UI is shit I will look up ways to cheat these.

The last two Zeldas are awful on Switch. On PC I can fix everything I dislike about the games and tweak them to make them enjoyable.

On PC I can fix games. This is likely the main reason I'll never be a console/phone gamer and why I have a Steam Deck.

I have never enjoyed crafting. Grinding for material is also on my list (games like Monster Hunter)

Inventory management in the Resident Evil remakes are good examples of proper inventories and UI for that purpose. That way it's properly part of the gameplay and not "annoying hindrance" like Skyrim.
