How do we get publishers to stop printing physical copies?
>>332166228
By pirating more often.
>>332166228
They are gonna already do that.
Why waste money in paying for transport, printers, cases and discs if they can get away charging full price for digital download and digital booklet? or not even a booklet.

I hope physical never dies out. I have terrible luck with any and all technology but I always keep it in perfect condition so it never gets stolen, broken, or lost. If my PC so much as gets touched it starts shitting problems.
I refuse to PC game because I know everything will break.
It's dictated by the stores selling the consoles. Eventually when the last Gamestop dies out there'll be as many console games on shelves as there are PC games, ie next to none. People will just get their PS5s from like Amazon or Walmart.

Only Nintendo's physical games don't go on sale, but those games are for children anyway so it doesn't matter
>Supply is infinite so finding a copy is never an issue.
Find me a copy of P.T.
Fuck you physical is life
The ultimate goal is top notch DRM, no physical sales, and the gradual erosion of sales. They don't want to give up the console pricing structure and are in fact looking to push it to $70.

Current consoles are thinly veiled PCs
They are just locked for shitty proprietary OS, kinda like a worse OSX

Seriously this.
Devs are already keeping games prices high without all the bullshit that brick and mortar brings. Who knows what they have planned next.

>implying P.T. would exist without digital distribution
>>332166484
would it be possible to take out your ps4 harddrive and copy it?
>>332166630
Somebody would have to crack it, it most likely has copy protection
>>332166228
>not even mentioning disc rot

>HDD
>Digital Storage

Well they work very well and I've never had an issue with a console yet so it's doing something very right.
>be digital fag
>huge solar flare from planet Niburu happens when illuminati greys appear
>fries your HDD
>fries Sony's servers so you can't redownload and all your account information is gone
>meanwhile I'm in a cool underground bunker with my physical discs
Wow.
>>332167325
If a solar flare happens, we will have more important shit to care about than videogames.
>>332167439
Like? I'll be in my bunker if you forgot.
>>332166228
Fuck you.
literally when everyone in the world can access the internet and not just on dial up speeds.
>>332167629
Then why don't you make a backup copy hidden in your bunker right now? if you are so good.

when the whole world has fast internet.
You may laugh at 3rd world countries with their slow internet, but countries like Philippines is the reason why we are getting english sub DoaX3, SRWOG, Gundam and many more games
