I personally just can't give a shit. I haven't bought a hard copy game in over 10 yrs. I play the game, enjoy it and that’s it. I never understand the outrage.
>>742371627I wouldn't care if they decreased the price, but keeping them at over $60 is stupid.
Sounds sick post your recently played I want to be just like you bro
>>742371627Try thinking about it for a second and get back to me.
People sperging about discs give the same vibe as the people who sperg about AI.Just people who cry over an inevitable future they can't control.
>>742371995Do you treat your perpetual virginity with the same apathy?
>>742371627it's performative outrage by people with steam accounts
I have like two physical PS5 games, I stopped caring about it as much when discs stopped actually saving you hard drive space. Only the Switch/2 has a point since they'll actually run the game off the cartridge and not clog your hard drive, but even Nintendo's doing that game keycard shit making a handful of their games just as pointless.
>>742372613This is definitely the kind of insult a sex-having non-virgin would come up with. Definitely.
>>742372906No rebuttal I see.
>>742371627what find amusing about this is like a year ago xbox started slimming down disk areas in retailers and sony ponies laughed and laughed about how xbox sucked and has no disc sales etc etc and what happened? same shit for them
I have to agree. Havent had a CD - DVD drive as apart of my PC build for a decade and an external USB was always available but I downloaded ROMs anyways. People need to stop letting modern AAA get away with real issues like releasing unfinished games with the promise of continuous service or buying into Alpha / Beta then not finishing all the features. The reason why gacha is laughing at AAA is because even though it is gambling they still develop content non stop and fulfill the idea of live service games. Meanwhile get Cyberpunked or Battlefield tht takes half a year to fix. GTA6 being a buggy filled mess after leaving many features to AI incoming for example.
>>742372984>rebuttal What exactly am I supposed to be refuting?
Retail dood, wat nu?
>>742373029Nahh Xbox deserves to be shit on. All their IPs on Sony branded machines. A high tech American company literally sold to Indians after destroying its own reputation for years. Washing their hands of gaming altogether.
>>742371627> I never understand the outrage.Probably because you're a retarded nigger. I'm afraid your diagnosis is terminal, you can't be helped.
>>742371627It's because most games just simply can't be on discs really in the future. Maximum capacity of a triple-layer Blu-ray is like 100GB. Games these days are 300GB. GTA6 will be at least 400GB. Having multiple discs is inconvenient...remember Wolfenstein on Xbox 360 had like 4 discs?
>>742371995Then what do you expect us to do? Just fucking accept it?!
>>742371627>I never understand the outrageYeah since you're retarded
>>742371995Could you lick the boot any harder?
>>742373036>I have to agree. Havent had a CD - DVD drive as apart of my PC build for a decade and an external USB was always available but I downloaded ROMs anywaysDo you see how you had the CHOICE?
will you tell your future children about the days of vidya played on disc drives?
>>742371627>You vill own nothing and (you) vill be happy
>>742371995You're such a fucking retard, AI can't and won't do shit.
>>742373510Pretty much this.
>>742373510You would only need the discs as install media anyway so I don't see the issue. They would allow you to play and install the games in the future when the platform owner shuts shit down or goes out of business or fuck knows what.
>>742373195>things i would say if i was retarded
It sets a bad precedent
>>742371627What are the odds most people cheering for this were shitting on the xbone reveal.>teevee tv watch teevee
Ignorance and apathy is the worst form of evil, malice is at least purposeful
>>742373512Yes because that's exactly what you will do anyway.I wish there was a way I could say that without condescension, but I lack the eloquence for it. You must simply understand that your words and your actions do not align enough for your claims of outrage to be credible. Please understand.

>>742373036>The reason why gacha is laughing at AAA is because even though it is gambling they still develop content non stop and fulfill the idea of live service games.Scamming third world jeets with lootboxes is "content" now for Zoomers.The absolute state.
>>742371995I hope you end up getting killed in a slow painful brutal way in the future.
>>742373953>malice is at least purposefulThat's a rather bizarre criteria. Apathy definitely has its purpose; it is to help people remain sane during times of grief. Ignorance is a sin, I agree, but it serves the purpose of protecting an individual's worldview from being thrown into question, for better or worse.
If you don't care then why don't you have a PC? Literally the only justifiable reason for owning any console was the ability to get a full copy of a game on disk. Without that, it's just a shit massively overpriced PC but without the freedoms. So why don't you have a PC?
>>742374180Because PCs are all-purpose and consoles were designed to play games on it.
>>742374235Terrible bait.
>>742372613>>742373594>>742373707>>742374161Very thoughtful and rational responses. You guys sure proved him wrong.
>>742374173>>742373953>ignorance is evil>ignorance is a sinTwo of the worst retards in this thread, even though its got people like >>742371627and >>742371995>>742373963in here fouling up the perspective
>>742374308You don't need to be proven wrong to actually be wrong
>>742374324>ignorant anon does not believe he is ignorantMany such cases. If you were to realize how ignorant you are, it would surely collapse your worldview, which your body and mind subconsciously know is not something you can handle without putting the entire system in jeopardy.
>>742371627
>>742371627I haven't bought physical in a while either. But since roughly 7th gen, the only value a console has had over a PC has been its second-hand market continuing to exist.
>>742374389I'm afraid that's not how things work in a world that i ran by responsible adults, anon. Maybe in the world of a sheltered, tantrum-throwing, manchild. But not in the world of people who actually matter.
>>742374470>ignorant anon does not believe he is ignorantI didn't say that at all, so don't try and defeat a point I didn't make, it might make you look bad, since you care so much about optics.
>>742371627>I personally just can't give a shit. I haven't bought a hard copy game in over 10 yrs. I play the game, enjoy it and that’s it. I never understand the outrage.This is a literal copy paste of an engagement bait tweet I've just seen.4cvck has really gone down the drain over the past decade it's just xitter zoomer immigrants now
>>742371627No more buying and selling. Sure you can buy and keep the digital code voucher without activating it if you're a jew merchant/don't play games. But once you activate it/play once, hope you enjoy the game, cause that's it.
>>742374308>"Just accept the slop you're fed. Do not resist."How else do you respond to retarded shit like this?
>>742373963i only play dusty cartridges and burned dreamcast games, you can't use that on me faggot
>>742374604So...Steam.
>>742371627>Hahahahahaha steamie saar! You do not doing ownership of game!>What?! Do not talking about news of today!!! You are luddite!!!!! REEDEEM THE PSPLUS!!!!
>>742374570"Adults" do not control reality, they only control the perception of reality. If you are wrong, you remain wrong, whether it is proven to you or not.
>>742371627The outrage is coming from people like that guy with his nintendo LED s()ycave
>>742371995You wish AI jeet.
>>742374649The reason we have methods to deduce whether something is right or wrong is because if you cannot PROVE whatever it is that you are "right" about, then the claim is meaningless. Yes anon, I am afraid that your incredibly lazy interpretation of how things work, optimistic as it may be, is at the absolute heart of what it means to be ignorant. You can never truly "know" anything if you cannot prove it. That is the cornerstone of mathematics, which is the cornerstone of engineering, which is the cornerstone of everything decent the human race has ever accomplished. You would be wise not to treat it so lightly, ignorant cretin that you are.
It was literally inevitable, I just thought they're gonna finish the gen, not cut support mid gen.I was upset back in 2012 when my Black Ops PC dics was nothing more than Steam key activator. But now, I own 3 physical versions out of like 200 games on PS5 - one was bundled with console, one I bought because I didn't want to own just one physical game and the 3rd one was a prize I won. For me, they were nothing more than a nuisance.If you're gonna bitch about this, you better attach a photo of your physical PS5 game collection and a timestamp, because the number speaks for themselves, people just don't buy physical games anymore.
>>742374570Not really.
>>742373164Figure it out, if you can be bothered to.
>>742371627Hehehttps://x.com/Dominos_UK/status/2072334087382003866
>>742374964>It was literally inevitable, I just thought they're gonna finish the gen, not cut support mid gen.next gen starts in 2028 is what i get from that announcement
>>742375080>if you can be bothered toYou should probably assume most people can't, considering nobody owes you le debate no matter how much you're spoiling for one.
>>742375080I can't be bothered to, and neither can you apparently. I guess that means I win? >>742375061Yes, really. Sorry you had to learn this way, but shitposting on 4chan accomplishes literally nothing. Hope this helps.
>>742374964>because the number speaks for themselves,See that's the problem. Nobody cares about humanity anymore. Everyone is just staring at a bunch of pointless numbers. And then kikes like you pull shit like this.>I was upset back in 2012 when my Black Ops PC dics was nothing more than Steam key activator> people just don't buy physical games anymore.PEOPLE ARE NOT BEING ALLOWED TO BUY PHYSICAL GAMES ANYMORE.YOU SAID IT YOURSELF.Intentionally limited supply, physical games being sold with DIGITAL KEYS instead of an actual fucking game inside, it's all manipulation to get what they want: Total control over how you buy things and your money.They want to crush the used games market.They want to crush ownership of physical media (These are globalists, they are planning to turn you into slaves by 2030, wake the fuck up retard.)They do not want you to own physical games, so they make up excuses to make it the "truth".
>>742371627Here's a hint:You buy something.Its not yours. Thats why.
>>742371846All I see are tendies pretending to give a shit about plastic shit.

>>742371627Consoles were already shit and dying and they keep making them worse. At this point you would have to pay me to own a playstation.
>>742372783>but I have to collect
>>742375228You sure don't seem like you know what you're talking about. Just a bunch of noisy clapback. Hope*clap*this*clap*helps.
>>742371995everyone knows we are moving towarda a cloud only system via phones or screens. what is an issue is these corpos are giving themselves all the control all the power and everyone else can eat shit. its not just gaming, its internet and media access. once the feds (or corpos working on their behalve) have the control, propaganda will be the only thing to come out just like china.
>>742375229>they are planning to turn you into slaves by 2030, wake the fuck up retardYou seriously have to wonder what kind of life anons like this must have to have so little agency over their day-to-day lives that they think something like Sony no longer manufacturing outdated products is the same as being turned into a literal slave lmao. Jesus Christ.

>>742375428You live under a rock, mocking people for having basic ass pattern recognition capabilities.You'll still be mocking others saying "it's just a tattoo, man, get over it, it doesn't mean you're a slave." when you're being branded with a bar code.
it will never not make me angry that my entire way of existence is subject to the fickle whims of millions of barely educated illiterates who have been neatly divided into political camps they can't even effectively explain.
>>742375539I know you do, I know you do. The good news is that I can guarantee you're wrong. The bad news is that schizoids like yourself are a dime a dozen on this website and I have the misfortune of having to read and engage with your idiotic schizoposting more often than i'd like. The real victim here is me for having to put up with you, anon. Make no mistake about it.
>>742375428>being turned into a literal slave lmaoName a significant freedom you have that doesn't involve consuming food or entertainment.
>>742375674I suggest you screencap that post of yours and keep it somewhere safe until 2030 when you can open it up and realize none of your demented doomsaying amounted to anything. Maybe that'll help fix your broken worldview a little bit.
>>742371627Same. I give absolutely zero shits.Physical media has been a thing of the past with music and movies for a long time (what's left are niche markets in comparison).PC has had Steam since 2003 and it's been the majority for a long time now.what's the fucking problem?
>>742375735That's not what schizoid means. Schizoids are withdrawn and don't like to socialize. I'm here telling you to your face you're a retarded coward. >The real victim here is meThe jew cries out in pain as he strikes you. You're ticking off more stereotypes than you realize.
>>742372783This might shock you but get ready. People actually have strong opinions they stand behind you limpdick faggot
>>742375870I bought a bunch of Star Trek Blu-Rays dirt cheap before Paramount starts fucking with the classic episodes using AI. I also snagged the LotR special editions with all the bonus features for like $25.00.
>>742375867You can literally fucking read about it.https://sdgs.un.org/2030agendaThe information is publicly available you absolute niggerfaggot. This isn't a schizophrenic theory, and most of those conspiracy theories have been proven right the past couple years.We have this crap happening ALL OVER THE WORLD AT THE SAME TIME.All news outlets and governments are following the exact same script.They're wearing the fucking badge! IN PUBLIC!You literally have no excuse to call this schizoposting. You've gouged out your eyes and you're making fun of people who can see.
>>742374308i hope an 8 foot tall terminator looking nigger sticks his 15 inch steel rod in your anus and eye sockets
>>742375781I honestly don't believe I can hope to convince you that my life isn't the life of a slave if your concepts of slavery also include the rights to choose food and entertainment. I am confident that no matter what I say, you will twist it around and try to claim that I am simply ignorant of my slave-like life. Well, I can assure you that A) you have no fucking idea what slavery even means if you genuinely think the average middle-class American is living like one and B) calling other people slaves when they obviously aren't slaves is an extreme form of projection.

We've been here the whole time, there hasn't been a non-ideologically-motivated production of any kind since the 90s, and even back then, it was all still ideologically motivated, they just enforced GOOD ideologies (Read: Pro white/Pro Western) and not the ideologies of mongolian mouth-breathing faggots like socialism.If you're not willing to go die for the cause right now, you're already letting it happen and bitching about it won't help you.

And when asked if he would do the same, he responded dismissively stating that "i could never-- the water is far too cold!"
>>742371627There's only 2 reasons I don't buy physical (technically 3)I play mostly on PC now but some years back I played exclusively on PS4The first one is that they are stupidly expensive The second one is that for some reason almost every single disc I had was weirdly finicky and 9 times out of 10 couldn't be read, I had to do some weird ninjutsu just to get it working, don't know if it was the PS4 or discs or what
>>742371627I don't buy physical either but you're retarded if you don't understand that without physical Sony will have the monopoly to set whatever price they want in their store.>bububut they'll have boxes with codes at retailWill they though? And how long will those last until they phase them out because nobody actually wants to buy those? And then you're 1 on 1 with a store that can set any price.
>>742371995The thing is they just announced they're shutting down the ps3/vita store by this time next year. In the future you'll still be able to buy used ps3 games and play them, if there weren't physical copies there'd be nothing. That's where ps6 is at.
>>742371995I love AI, VR and crypto. And I hate this shit, you don't represent me and my fellow tech progressives
Come now, let us forget the future just ahead. Break away, escape, from this path that we've made and this wicked fate. You're not meant for this place. Don't you blossom here. Fly away, don't wait. Don't you ever wait. Don't fall under the weight of these wheels of fate. I still believe that you can't be a flower of Hell.

Maybe you're just shooting electricity out of your hands or something because I exclusively own physical media and the only time I had a defected disc was a scratched disc 2 of Star Ocean: till the end of time for the Ps2.
>>742378785Most of those apply to pirated games too. Piracy really is the best of both worlds. You get the ownership of physical media and the convenience of digital one
Ragebaiting someone on PS6 then reporting their account so they get banned and lose 1000s of dollars worth of games forever
>>742371627the fear from the physical gamers is that one day online servers will no longer be supported and their digital game library will be a waste of their money since they wont have access
>>742380976there's already shit that has disappeared from ios
>>74237162780s and 90s kids can pull their console out of storage 30-40 years later and still play it. 2020s kids are going to be pulling a useless brick out of storage. Absolute hilarity
>>742380976>fearIt's literally happening right now and they announced stopping physical releases at the exact same time they shut down the PS3 and Vita online shops.
I don't care either, but I'm going around making a big stink and hyping people up anyways because I like when big companies get heat
>>742371627So are they still going to sell boxes with codes or will games be gone from real life stores altogether
>>742382018That's respectable. Companies do not see us as anything more than cattle. Give them hell.

>>742371995>all those butthurt replies thinking they can win against physics lmao
>>742384492The 85% digital number is just as big a lie as 50% of gamers being women and 20% of Gen Z being LGBTQ+. "Digital purchases" can be anything from MTX to DLC to virtual currency. More people buy physical than Sony is letting on.
I'd bet people have lost way more physical copies of games than digital ones over the years.
>>742371627I would be fine with it if they had some way to convert any disk copy you have into a digital copy that you could download and re download without needing the disk.
>>742384689Say less, broke boy
>>742371627>I never understand the outrage.Let me help you understand. I doesn't matter what games I selected here it applies to them all.It also applies to Europe, Japan, any region. See Steam has keys, and people can buy keys outside of their region for a cheaper price, a godsent for us Europeans not living in Germany but having to live with German Euro Default prices. I love the Euro but I don't make 3000€ a month I make 1500€ because I live in Croatia. So 80€ for a game is a bit much when I can find keys for say 50€ or 45€ Example I wanted to play Anno 117, On Steam it's usually 60€ not it's 41€ on Steam Sale. yet on Cdkeys.com now whatever it's called it's 28€ sure it's not on steam but Ubilauncher but I don't care.With this move Sony is making themselves the only place to buy video games. And not to mention you can't buy used anymore. I can go in my dinky shitty 100k people city here called Osijek thats 300 km away from any real city and still find most popular PS5 games for 10~20€ used. Thats going to be gone. Sony was famous for one thing unlike Nintendo. Games lost value fast. You could buy everything 2 years alter for 1/3 the price if not 1/4.>>742384824Also this. Since they're counting fuckign discount bargain bin sales they have on PS Store into it yeah I bought more games digitally they phyiscally. But every single big game I bought phyiscal. Elden Ring, FFXVI, Unicorn Overlord, All the Yakuza Spinofs like Justice, God of War, Piderman, Gran Turismo 7, Astro Bot, Metaphor, Clair Obscur, Demon's Souls, Persona 5 Royal, All the FFVI's, Death Strandign 2, etc...But yes I have x2 shit like Dave the Diver or Gravity Rush 1 and 2 and other stuff I bought for like 10€ on PSN. I have a PC 7800X3D with a 7900 XTX but some games I just prefer to play on the PS5. Sometimes I double dip if it comes sooner to PS5 and then it's a MP game i play with bros on the PC.
>>742371627It's your choice, but you're missing the point. There's a difference between choosing not to own a physical copy, and being completely unable to own a physical copy. If you don't want to own a hard copy that's fine, you know the implications (the game can be removed at any time for any reasons, even if you bought it, and companies like nintendo and adobe, though in a difference sense, are known to do this), but the possibility of buying a hard copy is what makes the game or any other software yours as long as the copy is good (and I still have games from the 2000s), and people are upset because that is no longer an option.
we need thread ids, because i know OP is a shill.
>>742371627Everything digital is valueless. There's just so much of everything, be it games, movies, music, drawings. Art being created digitally where its then bought and sold was always a mistake. Used to $20 was the low price for a physical video game, nowadays you can barely get someone to pay more than $10 for one.
>>742371627Video games are so shit they are not worth the plastic used to create physical copies anyway.
>>742371627Literally nobody even buys physical media. There need to be laws in place that allow people to actually own their digital products, that would be great, but physical media is inconvenient and nobody really buys it anyway
