It instantly turns me off any game. Much of my free time for gaming on the weekends is really when I’m doing less active chores, like laundry. If I can’t pause to change loads and fold, I can’t play that game.
An infinite stack of either would devalue the currency so as to be completely worthless. Well, perhaps worth whatever you can recycle those bills into.
If you manage to keep an infinitely large stack of bills a secret, sure. Once somebody notices and word gets out, I’m doubtful it doesn’t get devalued in a hurry. Since these are bills that we are assuming are valid, it’s going to seem like the central bank is printing money with abandon. Famously not great for public confidence in a currency. Why would I keep my wealth in a currency that somebody has an infinite amount of? They may not be spending it today, but who knows when that changes? I’d certainly be scrambling to convert mine to something else.
For a while in early WotLK, I sometimes did dungeons with a lady whose husband was on active duty, and she was always halfway into a box of wine. She really liked to share.
I agree for any game that’s open world/has side content/etc. I don’t like feeling like I can’t do stuff because the world will end if I take a detour. It’s ok for more linear/on rails games where it builds tension, and there’s nothing else to do.
I loved Cyberpunk, but that part was annoying. It also made the narrative a little less impactful when I’d spend a while fucking around, and that should mean I’m already dead by now.

I considered deleting the post, but this seems more cowardly than just admitting I was wrong. But TIL something!
