people need to accept that it's just an abstraction. It's not an in-universe thing that's occuring. In universe the characters are sheathing their weapons in real sheaths and scabbards, but technological limitations keep that from being portrayed on screen.
What technical or technological limitations are u talking about ? Many games do it well even if it's an "abstraction" but BG3 isn't doing it well at all. The best exemple is probably shields and the second set (ranged weapons) that simply dissapear.
The Forgotten Realms have their own reality and Larian fails to translate basic things into a video game despite obvious "abstraction" requirement on some points. We have great cinematics but about weapons, they're just doing the same as 20 years old games did.
