>buy physical copy of pc game
>go home, put disk in pc
>no game on disk, just steam code to download
And they say pc gaming isnt dead

Bad example, since GTA V installs from the discs

>>340289746
No, its just a rare example of a pc game actually coming on a disk
>>
>>340289337
Can you honestly not think of anything better you could be doing than spamming this shit all night?

Don't you have friends or a girlfriend or work you could be doing?

>>340289864
not OP but i have no friends and no girlfriend

>Blu-Ray player are uncommon as fuck on PC unlike in consoles
>Therefore they stop bringing PC Games on Disks because too much effort.
It's just that Rockstar gives more of a fuck it seems
Besides that the PC Market is far bigger in the EU anyway and there internet isn't an issue to download shit like in the US a ton of times.

You'd have to be stupid to buy anything physical on PC at this point(unless it's DRM free)

took me 8 days to download GTA V

>Doom
>expecting 55GB to be on a DVD

I bought Doom retail, it came with the first 10 gigs on disc. Also came with the kickass reversible cover. And was cheaper than buying it via steam because of regional pricing that doesn't account for exchange rates.
>>
I have 1.5 Meg download speeds

I hate anyone who sells digital only PC game that are larger than 1 gig
>>
Witcher 3 was done so right. I'll be able to play the physical version of the game in the end times when I finally scavenge a computer together.

Why not upgrade?
>>
>>340289848
Only game that has only been a steam installer so far is MGSV as far as I know of.

Any other examples?
>>
>>340290068
actually on the ps4 you can start playing right away while the 20gb patch downloads. It just won't install the patch until you close the game.

not offered in my area
