Yea I think it’s GGs unfortunately.
Buy your physicals on Switch, hope that Xbox takes advantage of this to make discs for next gen so the market that wants it can have it, and at least Steam/PC gives you more flexibility access for digital as well. If Playstation doesn’t want you, it’s gonna be up to you to make a stance to not want them back.
This disc thing is like 1 part of the problem with Playstation. Studio shutdowns, billions wasted on live service games that never even saw the light of day, lack of first party games this gen, and clearly next gen things are gonna get WORSE. This is a PS that doesn’t care, nor needs to care cuz in their mind they are the default console people will buy. I hope they are humbled beyond belief going into PS6💀

Thoughts after a few hours of playing with Steam Machine.
- 3D performance is just…meh.
- The system recommends to default to 1080p - am I going back to PS4 days?
- Some games take a looooooong time to boot, what is it doing?
- System UI is easy to use.
- Being able to boot up by pressing a button on Steam Controller is a killer feature.
- Changeable face plate is nice.
- Random boot up videos is a nice touch :)
- Sticks on Steam Controller is a bit looser than my taste.
- Having touch pad is nice, but it is very “touchy” and hard to use.
- It allows me to play Steam games on my living room TV, which is a reason enough to keep it.
- But the price was very unfriendly. Hard to recommend to people unless for research.
RPCS3 is better than ever!
Played all of God of War: Ascension in one session at 4K, with an overall average of 150-200 FPS, little to no stutters without prior SPU/shader cache, no crashes. Felt like a native PC game. -Ani

I’m honestly at a loss for words for what Sony and Microsoft are doing to the video game industry right now. Xbox is gearing up for record layoffs and studio closures and PlayStation is taking a huge step to completely kill physical media.
This feels like a great time to remind everyone that Steam is way more consumer friendly and GOG lets you own your game files DRM-free and with no required internet connection.
Sad times.
For once I have not regretted moving to PC rather than PS5.
And PS3 / PSP was the last platform I was. Man is this depressing to see it go this path.
Genuine bad decision for those who rely much on physical stuff which is proof of ownership.
