At least you can go back to previous areas
I kind of hate the thing in games where it's like "you didn't look in the second bathroom so you didn't get the staff of mega fireballs. No, you can't go back to the house. It's still there but you can't go in.".
That and the common "no matter what the game says, do the quest objective last because that might move you past something important" thing.
Playing Mass Effect 2 and there's a lot of "go fight them and save the day!" And I'm like hold on I need to check every corner for upgrades real quick.
Iirc,mass effect lets you buy anything you miss in a store later, at least
Only the third game does that, I'm pretty sure. It's not a terrible solution, though it can be annoying when money is finite.
