Title: Gamer realizes the true extent of physical games’ demise
Post by: Redaktion on August 30, 2025, 14:04:19
More and more developers are releasing their games as digital-only, which can be frustrating for collectors and anyone who misses physical editions. But it's not just about nostalgia – when the internet goes down, even regular players can find themselves locked out.

I never stopped buying physical games. Sometimes I buy multiple copies of the same games I want to support. Any "digital only" titles I pirate them.

But I admit it's a losing fight. And when you look around to see how many people cash in their freedom for cheap convenience there's no much hope.

Good luck to the next generation. I tried.

if that happens, we will most likely have many other, more serious worries, than where to get our digital only games..

The coping mechanism of playing video games cannot be stopped under any circumstances.  Please continue to cope with the challenging emotions ruminating throughout your body by playing video games to numb yourself.
