What game mechanics do you love and hate? (beehaw.org)

I love hearing about unique takes on game mechanics. Someone recently convinced me that limited inventories are kind of abused currently and that unlimited inventory systems would give more player choices.

It's the primary reason I put down Breath of the Wild. Hit an enemy three times with a basic weapon and it breaks? Nah, I'm good.
I think if I had any sort of fandom towards Legend of Zelda as a series, I may have stuck with it, but that's just not a series I could get into when it was coming up (Link To The Past, Ocarina, etc.)
Weapon durability in, say, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is handled way better. Gun starts to slowly become inaccurate and more unreliable (more frequent jamming, which means you have to reload mid-firefight to clear the jam. I actually like that).
