Physical copies of video games are being discontinued.https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/rockstar-confirms-there-will-be-no-disc-version-of-gta6-at-launch/They already took our bread, now they are coming after our circus too!!? Can't wait for the global economy to collapse, without the shackles of fiat money we will have free agency to storm into their homes, kill their sons and rape their daughters, stupid idiots, their new generation of nepobabies won't even read how their forefathers took over the world from monarchists, and what happens when they take away our escapism.
>>5378350871 gay company that peaked does something stupid. Ok. Lets see how the future plays out.My money is rockstar fucks itself
>>537835087It costs more to produce physical discs. Gamers would have complained if the price of a physical copy was higher.
>>537835087there is no way its going to live up to the hype
>>537835087I like how all the gaymer fags whining about this just need something to cry about you havent used a disc for game in 10+ years even your retro gaming is done with emulation shut the fuck up dorks
>>537835087wait a minute, they're selling you a code in a box for $70 big ones?how the fuck is this not a Cereal Box prize toy? cut the cardboard and make your own sock puppet theaterhow the fuck can it not call itself slop? what the fuck
GTA6 will be gay, won't buy and it will be a part of the trigger of the financial apocalypse like AI which will burst at around the same timeCheckem
>>537835087The last time I tried to buy a game was when I went to EB Games to buy Dawn of War II.They didn't stock it. Just shelf after shelf of console trash.I bought it on Steam instead and have never bought a physical game since then. Fuck consolenigger retailer FAGGOTS.
>>537835087The brains and soul of Rockstar left years ago, sadly. They're pozzed just like another AAA studio now
Who cares. Video games are for 5 year-olds.Little kids play with Barbie dolls and Star Wars figures. "Look! I'm Luke Skywalker! PEW PEW!!"Older dweebs play computer games. "Look! I'm a soldier! I levelled up! PEW PEW!"
>>537835325I still ay 360 I bought one for 100$ bucks to show my Lil brother when gaming was good dick are king no women needed
>>537835087Do you remember when the push for digital games first started and they talked about how they would be cheaper because of a lack of manufacturing and logistics. What a con. In reality they just wanted to put an end to the second hand market.The PC games industry was fine until Steam came along.
>>537835087GTA Online was the worst online game I ever played
>>537835150It is called a precedent you filthy turk.
GTA Online characters are literally just Reddit at this point, wtf did you expect?
Why anger over the physical aspect and not the price, or the fact that they're taking features that were in 5 and putting them in the special 100 buck version this time around.They learned how to Jew from GTA Online, and by god they're running away with it. Just pirate the game when it gets cracked, nothing worth giving them money over.
That's cool, the era of me buying games is also over.
>>537835087>Wokeslop>100 buckaroosBrave
>>537835087Good, then make the game $50.Nah? Fucking kikes.Saddest thing is, normies, niggers and fomo losers will still buy millions of copies.
>>537835087"At launch."R* has been to this rodeo enough times to know the second an offline playable disc of the game comes off the factory floor, that shit is being stolen and leaked. So instead, they'll make sure no such discs exist until after the game's planned release, so there won't be any random press factory worker/truck driver/etc. with a playable copy of the game 2+ weeks before release.
>>537835087>>537835150>>537835186>>537835245You can literally have your AI agent make you a game 10x better than the trannies at rockstar or blizzard, and you won't even have to mod out the woke latinx multiculti shit they forced into it.
>>537835087lmao thats a sales flop.. imagine "buying" a game you have no ownership over and kikes can digitally lock you out for saying nigger in chat. no thanks. fuck kikes
>>537835087not playing nigger culture games anyway
>>537835087Don't you still have to download the game to your PC to be able to play it?
>>537836264If they could swing it, they'd make it phone home in real time and delete itself if it can't.
>>53783552330+ year olds with wifes and kids play pc gamesMy friend's father who is around 50 plays battlefieldThere are streamers who are 70+ who play videogames.You have a personal minor opinion and your shits all retarded, facts are facts.Entertainment has no age limit, only the stigma of what entertainment you consume created for certain age types
>>537835610Cheat engine worked in gta online, i cheated rockstar out of 800k real life money duping and selling cars with modded pricesLet them burn
Fight this nigger shit. Dont fall for environmentalism bullshit as a reason.An all digital world is the elites wet dream because they can tamper with the data and alter information in such a way they where suddenly you owe the bank $250000 and there is no recourse. Fuck an all digital nanny state.
>>537836590>facts are factsand the fact is video games turn people into fucking retards
>>537835087>Get GOG games on sale or free (they usually give 2 games for free per week if you have Amazon Prime Gaming)>Can download them and install them legally wherever you want>Save them in an external HDD, or burn them in cds if you want to have a big collection at homeGames for 1$ or less.That's if you want them "legally".Be content with 10 years old games and be happy. Nothing has changed in the last 10 years.
>>537835087What race are those people?
>>537835610normoids love it more than life
>>537836802This alongside with the abadonware game or the old games frrom various pc magazines forgotten on neighbour markets or even cornflakes offers cd games sold as second hand can give you very nice budget solution.
>>537836802>Be content with 10 years old games and be happy. Nothing has changed in the last 10 years.I'll do you one betterVimm dot net, you're welcome
>>537837586Fuck it here's a you and a another linkmyabadonware dot com
>>537837677Checked. Thanks!
>>537835087This doesn't work how you think it does.
>>537835087>>537835673You wont do shit
>>537835087I can't wait to play this game in 2029 when I get it for half off on steam just to play a four hour campaign. maybe it will have giant horse balls in it like rdr2. that would be exciting.
>>537835087I won't buy it. Physical matters. I'll just buy games on Nintendo. That code in a box shit I'll never buy
Physical discs are been pretty redundant since the ps3 /xbox 360 era. Day one patches.
>>537836802>>537837586Btw, there's is a whole list of drm free games on steam and epic.A lot of them are on offer free. You can download many of those and play them offline. They have lists too if you search them.
>>537835087>>537835087PC gaymers already normalized not owning your games, its called Steam. Gaymers praise Gaben and talk about how they are PC masterrace for not owning their games compared to console gamers. Gaymers get what they deserve
>>537838417Meh, you still have the original and you can mod it. Nfs games are quite famous for that.
>>537835087>Physical copies of video games are being discontinued.Discs will continue but Rockstar knows 1) Their market dominance is so large they can say fuck you to the consumer2) They will earn more on the order of billions more by strangling resales3) The game itself is just an advertisement for online GTA, their previous jank ass online made them billionsBillions is not an exaggeration btw.
>>537835150> Ok. Lets see how the future plays out.PC fully abandoned games in physical media almost 20 years ago and is doing just fine.Mobile tech never even had physical media unless you count handheld consoles, which are a small fraction of the market.Other forms of media are also mostly digital, with the exceptions mainly being special/collector editions for blu-ray movies.or music CDs.Honestly it’s genuinely surprising that consoles still have physical media, specially considering how predatory the console industry is.
>>537838417Discs are digital
>>537838602we also already normalized owning steam games with steamunlocked
i want to be outraged about this with you guys, can anybody tell me how this is likely to impact my life?
>>537838849The stark difference is AI is being forced onto consumers while everything else you listed were innovative to the consumer at the time of release. AI is not being sold as an innovation it is simply being forced onto consumers, so the two aren’t really comparable. The other things you listed died because people stopped buying them for convenience; the opposite happens when you force it like it is now, where people will outright avoid products or businesses that promote AI usage
>>537839072Economists worldwide gauge the likelihood of human satisfaction with these metrics, not “how many cheeseburgers can this guy forego until this guy isn’t hungry”. A more precise, minute metric would be “how much is this guy willing to pay for GTA 6”. You can glean so much more information to feed an LLM from that GTA 6 purchase information (time, date, location, age, bank, transaction type, frequency in micro transactions, etc). The future is being sold the game and then sold back to you again and again and again and again. And okay maybe you won’t do that, but your shit head little cousin will. And so will some of his shit head friends and brothers, and older brothers. Now this information sucker is inside their homes too, so on so forth. GTA 6 is one of probably tens to hundreds of companies doing this to you right now including whatever device you are reading this from unless you’re a super autist like me (I’m in a private chrome window)
>>537835325Literally playing OG Silent Hill on my PS3 right now with a disc, and I finished Astro Bot and Mass Effect Legendary Edition on disc a few weeks ago faggotAnyone that does digital only is a slave to corpos
>>537836797Maybe in muttland, but people there are retarded with or without videogames.Normal people don't get affected by the entertainment they consume.
There'll be a physical release in Decemeber. They need to mitigate leaks so digital only for month 1.
>>537840438They*
>>537835673imagine the precedent it sets when the game flops because people want discs.(i don't think that will happen because zoomers are retarded, but i wish it would.)
>>537835245The hype must accelerate harder.
>>537835610It was nowhere near as good as SAMP.It didn't even have a 50+ player Protect The President mode.How the fuck can you have GTA Online, and not have the badass gamemodes that always had full servers in SAMP?
>>537836797Most people know that video games aren't real.
>>537839513>The future is being sold the game and then sold back to you again and again and again and again.Wow, that sucks. Is there any way to just, you know, not buy it?
>>537835087There's another argument, one I favour.One of the most annoying things about GTA5 is that every vehicle has damned near the same top speed, with hypercars being as fast as an old rusty stock muscle car.That's because the IO on the old Xbox 360 and PS3 was atrociously slow. Rockstar already used insanely efficient algorithms to streamline the data streaming when you're moving to prevent the pop-in we remember from the good GTA games.120mph is the best they could do. Hardware made it so.The PS5 doesn't have this problem. That SSD has so much IO that Rockstar doesn't have to nerf vehicle speeds.But if the game were launched from a disc, that could become a problem again.
>>537835087No it's not. They're doing this because they're sick of their games getting leaked right before release. Even if someone gets a copy early, the code doesn't activate till midnight, there's no way to bypass it. Physical disks is coming, but not till after the release. It's going to be the biggest video game release in history and the team simply doesn't want people spoiling they learned their lesson with V Tons of retards leaked V right before it came out cause people got it early so they could get there 5 seconds of fame.Gamers have always been there own worse enemy.
>>537835087Who gives a fuck. Do you want GTA 6 written to a floppy disk?
>>537843332Punchcards
>>537838849>i love this game and dont need a disc>update bricks the game>why is my game changedhonestly having a physical copy keeps companies from censoring and going full orwellian changes to mediafor instance, you cant find the explicit version of eminems "my name is", only the "unedited" version and the radio version. it changes the meaning of the song completely. likewise good luck finding the OG "if that aint country" by david allen coe caus eof his use of a hard Rnaw, id rather not have the game i paid $50-70 for removed for a TOS violation or neutered because corporation or arists said so
One could argue that instead of discs we can start using Sticks , but nohhhh you cant own anything physical anymore and no you may not keep playing when we decide to nuke the server where "your " copy is.
>>537838262I wont buy their game. I wont participate in this gay humiliation ritual of owning nothing and being happy
>>537835087This shit is going to be the worst disaster since Trannypunk 2077.
>>537835087Just mean less resalability. They should've made physical for deluxe edition.
>>537835186No it doesn't. It costs more because of corruption.Nothing technically preventing EB Games (or whereever kids buy games) from having a machine that makes you a bluray of your games.Every print can send a few cents to the developer.The reason they don't is because jews, nigger,s and a few women domant games now.
