Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick says physical discs "don't really make sense" for big games like GTA 6
“Our business is well over 90% digitally distributed. It's already a digital business. So in certain instances, especially if it's a big game, discs just — note I said discs — don't really make sense for the consumer.
Translation: „we want to scam you out of your money, you having no rights, no second hand market“
Download the offline installer of any of your games on GOG, save it to a disc and it's yours forever.
You don't need a storefront's permission to play what you bought.
Movies still come on Blu-ray, music is still pressed on vinyl and books still fill store shelves. But as Sony moves to phase out physical PlayStation releases, many gamers are asking why video games should be the first major entertainment medium to go all digital. https://t.co/FagoUG3JVU

We will not be able to freely access the movies, books, and music that we have loved. I would be a have-not. That's what I'm afraid of. This is not greed.

Eventually, even digital data will no longer be owned by individuals on their own initiative. Whenever there is a major change or accident in the world, in a country, in a government, in an idea, in a trend, access to it may suddenly be cut off.

NTE Hotori Character PV丨Echoes in the Vessel
The Anomaly within the vessel, the Wine Maker, is still waiting for its old friend.
It took the form of that friend's reflection, cast into a cup on the day they made their promise… forgetting how time reshapes all things.
But the flowers... they remember.
