Credits are explained to be a digital crypto currency in line with things like Bitcoin or Ethereum today. My question is where is my money stored? Is the whole thing stored in a digital wallet with Galbank, or is it in multiple wallets and I just carry around loads and loads of credsticks?
How do you pay for things in Starfield? Do creds work like debit cards where you use your card to transfer credits though some sort of device or do we somehow store these credsticks like coins? How would you know how many creds are in each stick?
My theory was that credsticks are given out by galbank for free in large amounts to represent a particular digital wallet so that ownership of the credstick means ownership of the wallet.
This for me raises questions about the credsticks you can collect during a specific main quest mission which is a spoiler.

In the main quest mission Entangled you can collect the same credsticks from another dimension and keep them. Does this not make sense to anyone else? Honestly I was expecting to get a hail from Galbank regarding suspicion of fraud because I was able to redeem credits from the same wallet apparently twice
That's just my thoughts on this. I haven't looked anything up so I might have missed something obvious. Let me know what you think
The entire economy needs a reboot. Food is almost useless as a healing item, and niche for other players. But food costs more than, and sell for more than, resources. Resources are heavy and worth almost nothing.
Maybe buying a ship should be a few million. Ships in space could have a self destruction mini game or something. But making ships much more rare would give the impression that the frontier is actually a ln amazing gift.
For the love of God, I’m going to mod most of this but give the vendors more money. The trade authority should not have as much money as skyrim merchants.
The physical scale of this game is amazing, slap a few zeros and the world will feel more Alice. Things will feel like rewards.
