10 Video Game Items Everyone Hoards (But Never Uses)

3. Materials - World Of Warcraft

Crafting is one of the fundamental aspects of World of Warcraft’s gameplay. You can be a chef, a tailor, a blacksmith, or even an engineer. However, no matter which profession you choose, you will always require raw materials to craft something.

This is when Warcraft players will take two paths: they will either pick a sub-profession allowing them to collect the materials they need or begin to clutter their inventory with useless junk, thinking that one day they might need it when they decide to switch their profession.

Pieces of cloth, raw hides, and basic cooking ingredients tend to be the bane of many backpacks in World of Warcraft, especially for those players who feel the need to stay prepared for anything (even if that anything is never going to happen).

Those players will cling onto their precious junk materials, telling themselves they might need them later or that they can always sell them at the auction house, which, spoiler alert, they never will.

If you’re one of those players, know that it’s not too late. You can still sell those items before you go on a dungeon raid and do not have enough space for that epic gear you've been trying to get.
