When I first started playing early access I didn't read much about the game. I wanted to learn it as I went. One of the first things I got into the habit of doing was hording all the silverware because I thought "there's probably a way to melt this stuff down and craft weapons with it". When I found out I couldn't I thought maybe I could just use it to get more money in the game. I could have been a silverware merchant!
I understand the idea of making the world feel alive and lived-in by having all this useless junk stashed everywhere - it is realistic, from my previous work experience - but I also admit that it is making me want to ignore opening up containers now because I keep having to move my left hand off the WASD keys to make those stubborn container windows go away. If I don't move my character and click to open another container they all stay on the screen unless I click the X or press escape.
It would be nice if the action to open a container is removed when the container is empty, at least. As annoying as it is, I still understand the motivation behind the junk.
