Rylan Darrke he’s talking about rpgs where most of the things in your inventory can get to 99 and they take up the same amount if you had one of it

[@ravezon]

Yea Drakke, its called stacking. A full stack of any items in rpg usually around 99 in case of FF series and most of the rpgs, 999 if pokemons series if not mistaken, and the highest max stacked per item in some games is 9999 per items. This one usually in mmorpg.

Pretty much, the game's intent on you joining the Thieves Guild. I did managed to avoid it with my goody little two shoes character who doesn't steal, doesn't trespass and doesn't murder anyone (except in crime stats, it said she did commit murder but I had no memory of it - only exception is Grelod, I always murder that bitch) and basically said "Screw your plan, Brynjolf! I'm not interested in your guild." However, ever since then, I always joined because being a thief is fun and makes life much easier. I still rarely murder people though but I don't care about the count in crime stats.

Yeah, but that's part of a design overlook from the devs I think. The Whiterun home will be the "main base" for quite a long time till one can afford or be allowed to purchase another house. And at that point you allready spend a good lot of gold to upgrade the Whiterun home, and theres so much stuff stored there allready. And, am I really goint to haul all that stuff to Markarth or Riften? In who knows how many trips? Hell no!

What if there are magicians specialized in food preservation spells, but they are too ashamed to admit that's the only thing they can do ?

[@biblicallyaccuratecockroach]

Realistically speaking, in an era before fridges, such specialized magicians would be highly respected. I'd reckon they would be important enough that there would be dedicated schools for food-preservation magic, state-regulation of their trade, and most likely a requirement for licenses to operate, either as freelancers or working for a town or noble house, much like there were licenses and regulations for other good and services, like bread or brick making (yes, there were regulations for bread). Even if no licenses were actually required, there would most likely be private guilds or associations that internaly recognized skilled food-prevervation magicians, allowing the public to know that specific magicians had already proven their skills and were therefore safe to hire (and probably more expensive as well) than someone without such recognition, just like it happened for knife or sword makers (they were not the same). Food is perishable, and preserving it is extremely important even today. Salt is one of (if not the) most common food preservatives, and before there were fridges it was extremely valuable for that specific reason, even sometimes called "white gold"; Roman legionaires were even paid in the stuff. As a funny aside, the existance of such magicians would most likely mean the fridge would never be invented, as it wouldn't be needed.

There is actually a lore behind why there is fresh food in dungeons in skyrim it is because the drauger wakes up and lights the fires of the cave/dungeon, and they put everything they find in the dungeon chest so they can honor their masters even after life they will still serve them, so the answer is some explorers died maybe recently due to drauger, so they had maybe food with them, so drauger took their food and they put it in the dungeon chests/cave.
