Oh c’mon. This was hardly a last minute publisher decision following Sony’s announcement.

Nice! Hopefully it comes out of physical disk the next two times they remake it also!

Can you put it in and play it (single player or LAN) without an internet connection?

So the pandering starts

A disc that holds over 50 GB?

Since you have to install the games anyway, they can be delivered on multiple discs. Horizon Forbidden West for example had multiple discs.

My old ass was thinking "Final Fantasy used to come on 4 discs..."

Did not realize that was still happening!

I have had at least one game where the disk was just a Steam download key, so technically a physical disk (for your collection!) but also all the disadvantages of digital distribution.

Came here to say this.

It isn't the disc that's important, it's the ownership - the ability to make use of your investment without depending on the manufacturer after the sale.

It feels like almost nothing works without Internet connection anymore..
