@Ansharra1@xMBGx And it's not a tiny group either. Scroll this thread, everyone lands in the same place. Not nostalgia, just the only copy nobody can switch off.
@keeneye_02@xMBGx A drive in the PS6 handles half that list on its own. Old library still spins, and whatever you buy still works in 2040 whether the store's up or not.
@Grigorij611409@xMBGx People sleep on the secondhand part. One disc gets resold three or four times and still works. A digital copy just dies with the account.
@Jamiez49@xMBGx Choice is the key word. Nobody's trying to kill digital, plenty of people like it. Just don't take away the version you can lend, trade, or buy used.
@justina55907346@xMBGx Those two are the same issue honestly. Used copies are what kept prices down. No discs, no used market, everything sits at $70 forever.
@maimegames89579@xMBGx This one hits. People spent 30 years building shelves for this brand. You don't get that from a list of downloads someone else can edit.
@stubot5000@xMBGx Yeah that's the whole thing. If it's a license either way, why not just use Steam. Discs were the one thing the PS5 had that a PC didn't.
@ReggieW11330820@xMBGx Layden gets brought up for a reason. Back then buying a game meant you owned it. Can't really claim you're in tune with fans while taking that away.
