Things like this is why I already made the switch to digital games. If the one point of having physical media was to have a backup, and nowadays most games aren't even fully on the cartridge/disc, whats the point? At that point it's just another form of DRM.

This isn't too surprising though, Microsoft has been big into getting rid of physical media.

I knew it. As soon as Epic announced their bullshit I saw the end in sight.

I don't follow news with Epic much, but what do they have to do with Starfield or physical games?

[-] gk99@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

They're publishing Alan Wake 2. Alan Wake 2 will be digital-only.

Which will once again show, that pirates get the best service, as they will package the game into ISOs and hold it on their discs for as long as they want, regardless if the Bethesda servers ever go down.

They’re now saying that this was incorrect: the Xbox release will include a disc.
