You know how games use to come on a dvd or a big brick called a cartridge... Can i do something like that but in modern day. I have a bunch of blank dvd and cds collecting dust and linux os's but could i put game son them on installers and give them some cool art? Is there a better way to do this? This would also be for personal use cases.

Im just not sure how well save files would be handled, or if this is worth doing.

Get your games as GOG Offline Installers. Burn them onto M-Disc Media. Supposed to last 1000 years. Terribly slow to burn at the suggested x4 speed but after it's done you got it forever! Then if you're really serious, use the 3-2-1 rule with 3 copies, on at least 2 different media, and with 1 stored off-site.
