For myself, I don’t hate it, I just don’t seem to get it like everyone else. I just leveled myself up and gave some weapons after a while because I found the combat unengaging and wanted to finish the story. I’m interested in trying out that mod pack someone else mentioned. Maybe the experience will be quite different.

That seems a little presumptuous.

While I think your point is true that its much more abstract than people realize. When I worked at a bank and we disbursed loans and credited/debited fees it was from “GLs” (General Ledger?) which were basically just separate accounts to help keep track. Like we had a “member service” one which was for basically anything with good reason. One time someone did a very large amount but he just basically got told to do it a different way.

Its all just in a computer. I could’ve accidentally credited someone a million dollars but it would’ve been realized when I tried to close my drawer and balance everything out. And the branch would have to be balanced at the end of the day so I assume the bank did as well.

On a related note banks take out loans from other banks. I think a lot of people don’t realize that banks have savings accounts so they have money to lend.
