My IQ is too high for me to buy digital licenses.
>>
>>736724037
It's certainly not high enough to understand that DRM also exists on physical copies as well.
>>
>>736724037
Do all of those play from the disc? Without an internet connection?
>>
>>736724442
All the Nintendo ones do.
>>
>>736724442
Yes. Elden ring shadow of the erdtree is even updated and patched
>>736724290
Your car and washing machine are also DRM, retard.
>>
>>736724757
>Your car and washing machine are also DRM
What? No they are not.
The fuck sort of shitty always online washing machine did you buy?
>>
>>736724905
Since when does DRM mean "always online"? What are these mental gymnastics? Meds.
>>
>>736725195
>Doesn't explain how his washing machine is DRM
What are you waiting for? Do it.
>>
>>736724757
>Your car and washing machine are also DRM
speak for yourself, cattle
>>
>>736724037
Personally i just buy games on gog.
Noome can take the offline installers off my harddrive without taking my harddrive. And i dont have to use the locked down system.
>>
Vita and Switch 1 were the last platforms to treat physical releases with dignity. They're all glorified digital DRM now.
>>
>>736725252
Meds, tranny.
>>736725309
Enjoy always online DRM for your PC, TV, and phone, cattle.
>>736726327
>Vita
Peak cringe. The Switch 2 and PS5 are still completely offline consoles.
>>
>>736726587
>Enjoy always online DRM for your PC, TV, and phone, cattle.
again, speak for yourself retard. stop projecting.
>>
>>736726587
You put a Vita game on the cart and it didn't install to the hard drive (that wasn't initially there), it played straight from the cart. Same with 95% of Switch games. I suppose I shouldn't forget 3DS and WiiU, though I do still resent the whole Fatal Frame 5 debacle with the latter, more for the lack of an American physical on region locked hardware than any censorship.
>>
>>736724037
Same. My PC and PS3 and 3DS has been FILLED with roms now.
>GOG installers
>Old PC Ports from DVD rips from Internet Archive
>PS2 roms on PS3 2tb NTFS drive
>PS1 roms on PS3 2tb NTFS drive
>PS3 backups on PS3 2tb NTFS drive
>GBA games on the 3DS's microsd
>DS games on the 3DS's microsd
>3DS games on the 3DS's microsd
>Other roms on PC
I'm ready to go offline when the time comes.

yes
>troon
???
>>
>>736731482
Troons love woke slop. Its a sentence enhancer
>>
Not high enough to realize modern games discs are DRM or gamekeys apparently.
>>
>>736733779
Games from 1996 have DRM too you fuckin' Steam bootlicker tranny. What is your point?
>>
I still never forgave Steam for killing physical PC releases.
>>
>>736733865
Digital is also older than steam retarded nigger. What's my point? You're not as smart as you think you are dumb bitch. Kys
>>
>>736734204
They didn't kill it. You did.
>>
>>736734208
You are a complete retard. Enjoy owning nothing, tranny. You will love playing your digital slop through cloud without a physical PC, keyboard, mouse, SSD and all the other physical parts

But it didn't become normal until Steam.

Opps my bad you already own nothing, saar. So your seething and crying over physical games makes total sense
>>
>>736724037
I’ll be honest with you, I can’t name very many games after 6th gen that I care about owning so I can play again in the future.
>>
>>736735514
Play more games. How can you not like Nintendo and Fromsoftware?

>>736737334
Why didn't PC trannies say this stupid shit to video games back in 1998 or 2008? PC games need to be installed too back then and nobody said this retarded bootlicker shill stuff
>>
>>736737515
I really don't think he's talking about installation
>>
>>736737842
So she is just a jealous schizo?
>>
>>736737515
>say this stupid shit to video games
what the fuck are you talking about
nobody pranced around saying "la la la this isn't a license" in the 90's, either
>>
>>736737926
I'm pretty sure he's saying those are basically digital licenses but you get a nice box and disc as a placebo
>>
>>736738049
Oh so you're a jealous schizo too. Got it. Keep seething shill
>>
>>736738126
look up the word digital and then look up the word license
>>
they could just either block your discs or outright send you to jail for owning it. kek.
>>
>>736738173
Look up the word retarded tranny and you will find a picture of yourself
>>
>>736724037
You have a Steam account, don't you?
>>
>>736738267
I'd be mad too if I thought I was high IQ and it turned out I was below average
>>
>>736738208
Only if you're a tranny and pay for digital licenses.
>>
>>736724037
Obviously, OP doesn't actually want to talk about digital licenses and just picked whatever text kind of fit with the picture. Still, the high IQ response is to get digital as much as you want, and rely on a pirated copy if that digital license stops working. You've already paid for the game, you should be able to play it. Maybe someone is worried about some game 3 people played that doesn't have a pirated version. That will put a wrench in the plan, but legally purchased games sometimes don't let you play them either, because there's an "install limit" on them or because they have to authenticate online to a server that isn't up. In most cases, relying on a back-up pirated copy works fine.
>>
>>736738320
Keep seething shill. It's either physical or piracy :)
>>
>>736738126
No, I'm not jealous
I'm just sad that physical releases don't mean much anymore, since I myself relied on them to keep some semblance of ownership
>>
>>736738416
what does any of that have to do with me
>>
>>736738408
>Bla bla bla i'm brown and from the third world and physical games trigger me
>>
>>736738440
>anymore
The game is still on disc/game card, tranny. Now take your meds
>>736738447
Cry more saar
>>
>>736738524
>The game is still on disc/game card,
Needing an internet connection is the cut off point for me. If I can't put it in the console and play it without it phoning home, I don't own it.
It was bad enough with PS4 games that shipped broken and needed day one patches to properly function, but I was able to overlook that
If I'm going to be forced into not owning games, I'll just stick with Steam for the convenience.
>>
>>736738524
>im 2smart4 licenses

>i-i'm gonna pirate games and buy licenses too!
ok
>>
>>736738672
Digital tranny that pays for air has a mental breakdown over real ownership when she sees physical video games
>>
>>736738471
I didn't ever say you shouldn't buy physical games. Did you fail grade 2 reading class?
>>
>>736738763
What the fuck do you want from me tranny? I own my games and all you do is seethe and cry over nothing. Take your fucking meds schizo
>>
>>736724037
I don't like not owning the game too. That's why I never buy physical media. It is pure cope to think that you "own" a physically bought media unless you can play it without accounts and internet. That's why every time I buy a game I also download a pirated installers of this game go backup on my NAS.
>>
>>736738667
(me)
I mean GOG exists too, and I prefer it, but I never count on that to have the games I want
>>
>>736738667
>Needing an internet connection
Not one single game in my pic needs an internet connection tranny. Keep making up lies
>>736738841
Cool story shill

Congratulations on owning a plastic box
>>
>>736738761
I have a bunch of plastic objects holding digital games with digital licenses on them for my proprietary locked-down ps5 and switch 2, what do you mean
I have that dominus collection on my switch 2 (and breath of the wild, but boy is that game boring. haven't made it far)
>>
>>736738763
>Did you fail grade 2 reading class?
he obviously did and it makes him very angry

Congratulations on owning a plastic PC DRM box with a fake physical mouse and keyboard
Peak retarded trannies
>>
>>736724037
I prefer digital. I have so many games shoved in my closet that I just can't find any more. Yesterday I found a copy of usf4 for x360 in my closet and remembered I played it for like 2 years. I had completely forgotten I did that, feel like I'm going senile
>>
>>736739082
>Congratulations
thanks, I guess. I never claimed my digital things were analog, though, or that I owned things I didn't own
what is a fake physical mouse and keyboard anyway?
>>
My thread got raided by 3rd world schizo discord digital tranny shills

Sad. /v/ is full of subhumans who own nothing
>>
>>736738957
>Not one single game in my pic needs an internet connection
The PS5 requires an internet connection for initial setup yeah?
So all PS5 games require an internet connection by default
>>
>>736724037
If steam or some other storefront ever shits the bed some nerds will just rip the games I want and I'll pirate again.
Simple as.

that was the OP

>The Switch 2 and PS5 are still completely offline consoles.
You are unable to play Pokopia and many other games without connecting to the internet.
>>
>>736739425
I don't care about pokemon gen. tranny slop or game-key cards. It's either physical or piracy :) Simple as
>>
>>736739353
I'm not talking about the disc drive.
CAN YOU create an offline account? Can you do it straight out of the box? Can you purchase a PS5 and play games on it without it EVER having connected to the internet?
>making up lies
No, this is my genuine impression and it's one of the reasons I never bought one. If I'm wrong, I'll concede.
>>
True physical died a dog's death with PS4 and Xbone. Accepting glorified installers is still accepting digital, and when the lights do go out on servers odds are your install is a build that was patched up and obsolete 2 weeks after that disc hit shelves. Fuck modern game distribution.
>>
>>736739560
Sure. Your statement (assume it was you I replied to) was wrong.
>>
>>736739578
>CAN YOU create an offline account? Can you do it straight out of the box? Can you purchase a PS5 and play games on it without it EVER having connected to the internet?
Yes you fucking retard the first base PS5 and the lateat revision of the PS5 and PS5 Pro don't need internet to play games and firmware updates are on disc like back in the PSP and PS3 days
>>
>>736739628
>True physical
Buzzword slop. Even in 1990 you installed PC games on your harddrive you‘re a complete retard
>>
>>736739708
>first base PS5 and the lateat revision of the PS5 and PS5 Pro don't need internet to play games
I feel like you're using evasive language on purpose
Do you need an internet connection to set up the console initially? Before playing games on it?
>>
>>736739798
>you installed PC games on your harddrive
That's not true physical either. I want my shit running off the data container. Disc, cartridge, whatever.
>>
>>736739837
Why don't you look up the latest PS5 hardware revision drive to a store buy the PS5 with that serial number and test it out for yourself since you're to stupid to use google
>>
>>736739980
Retard, enjoy your slow ass PSX type games with 50 seconds of loading into a single battle
>>
>>736739992
>deflection
I did use google, anon. Here's what the Playstation site says:
>Console Sharing and Offline Play is automatically allowed on the PS5® console you've used to sign in to PlayStation for the first time.
So you need to sign in before you first use the console. You need an internet connection to play PS5 games.
You don't own your games. Not those ones, at least.
>>
>>736738838
>What the fuck do you want from me
Either a reply to what I actually wrote or no reply at all. Making shit up to complain about doesn't work.
