TIL a bunch of boomers are really mad about the lack of physical discs while posting and gaming from devices that haven't had disc drives as a standard feature in over a decade.

Everyone wants what Steam has without offering what Steam offers.
While the discontinuation of physical media should not be a surprise, everyone should have seen this coming as soon as digital downloads became viable, it does suck. Personally, I haven't bought a physical copy of anything in over a decade but not everyone has high-speed internet with unlimited download so physical copies should still be an option. Cooperate greed at it's finest.

It’s also about owning your games.

Yeah you run the risk of that with Steam too but I have countless games Steam no longer sells and were taken off the store that I can still play…because I bought it and they honor it.

Sony gives zero fucks about that, as proven recently.
