You used to be able to resell your PC games too, back in the day.
Why can’t PC games also come on discs? The last one I had the option to buy on disc I remember was Skyrim. When I put the disc in, it launched steam, connected my purchase to my account, and steam did the remainder of the install over the network. Turns out, it didn’t really have anything useful on disc.
yeah and it’s not that dissimilar on consoles. 800gb call of duty games on a single disc? plus you need a connection to play most games or even get the necessary patches that make the game playable since everything comes out as trash in the 1.0 version.
I see the appeal and desire for physical media but at this point it’s a charade and more harmful for the environment to boot
