get the fuck off Yea Forums clay

fancy boxes

I own them and not just paying for a digital license that can be taken from me for saying something someone else disagreed with

In case my system breaks or something fucks up
Also because some games are huge and fuck buying repeated expensive SD cards when I can just have most of the storage on the damn game cart I'm buying

If i lose my switch, i wont lose all my games as well.

Fancy boxes. They'd be worth more if shitty fucking hacks didn't invent the Day One Patch.

E-peen in battlestation/collection threads

Exactly this. Why would you not want to do this? I have some games that aren't physical but a majority of my games are physical. It's easier to keep track of physical games besides multiple SD cards or hard drives

I don't know you tell me OP?

eating anime girls are super cute

Everyone in this thread, including me, needs to have sex.

Resell value

I used to be a physicalfag for the purposes of collecting and display. Hell, I would buy games on Steam but would never play them because it didn't feel right. Felt weird not starting a game without popping a disc in. That being said, the first time I bought a PS4 game and had to wait 5 fucking hours for patches and shit to download and install was the day I decided I'd go all digital. Why the hell should I waste my time going to a store to buy a disc that acts as an .exe to a download when I can go nowhere and just buy it digitally?

It's just something I've always done so I feel like I have to keep doing it.

Nothing. Physical was killed by not having the complete game, day 1 patch and a patch-happy culture from both developers and publishers. The latter also makes preservation of specific versions incredible harder.

Because i want to actually own the games. I buy physical copies for really expensive games. Normal and casual games don't cost much like stardew or hollow knight,.. i bought digital.

i can touch it

>buy physical copy

>not playing multiplayer-only cancer
>not acting like a subhuman ape

Things that never happened.

the bad words only exist because subhumans like you exist

what happens if mom finds my fart balloon?

Could you elaborate?

I get to have a box collecting dust around.

So when Sony goes under they don't take my games with them. Also so I can easily let my friends borrow them.

You see OP, the image you posted perfectly encapsulates your mindset and the mindset of those of your ilk. You greedily consume and engorge yourself on whatever the industry shits out. You don't contemplate, you don't reflect, you don't collect. You just mindlessly consume whatever new game comes your way without realizing that a digital only future is not consumer friendly. Quite the opposite.

So like the sow eating from the trough, you're too blissfully ignorant of your soon-to-be future. You are going to be taken out back, shot in the head with a 22 before you even realize what is happening. You are everything wrong with the industry today and I sincerely hope your mother dies in her sleep tonight.

>disc that acts as an .exe to a download
There are like half a dozen PS4 games that this applies to, and they're all AAA trash made by EA or Ubisoft iirc. Every other game is fully playable from the disc with no internet connection
