Will technology ever progress enough to where we can buy a physical copy and it has the entire game on the physical media, requires no patch or internet connection, and doesn't require any anti-consumer console wannabe platform if it is for PC?

user.., that's just how things used to be like a decade and a half ago

No because devs purposefully do those things in an attempt to kill physical media and get consumers to go digital so they can save production costs.

We can't go back in time.

I'm not OP, but if I had to guess...

that's the joke

What are you talking about?
Patches and shit are a benefit to consumers?
Back in the day, games would just get released with bugs or delayed indefinitely.
Now, they can fix shit on a project that might otherwise have gotten put on the back burner and delayed.

what is that 1 reddit meme? are woooosh?

And its sad

>no post launch support is a "feature"
Burn all physicalfags. Gaming is a product of surplus technological progress and has no room for luddites or reactionaries.

And any gamebreaking bugs were there forever unless patched in a later release that forced you to buy the entire physical product all over again.

Imagine buying air lmao

a patch installed at your own leisure is something that Day one patch-fags will never know, as their video games are now dead since the patch is no longer provided and their games are online only

Video games aren't physical.

I miss traditional cel animation bros...

Why are you faggots so desperate to go back to the days of gamestop and niche games basically not existing?

Irony is lost in you

All your fabled "post launch support" amounts to devs releasing borderline uplayable "early-access" garbage for full price and taking literal years to fix it.

here's your post launch, day 1 patch, bro.

imagine buying a physical product, involving additional input, with the same outcome

niche games being brought to the masses was the second worst thing to happen, the first and WORST was video games going from hobbyists making video games for hobbyists.

Is that what's inside of computers? Air?

Duh, what do you think the fans are for?

So if I'm reading this thread right, my choices are
>No post launch support ever
>Buggy incomplete DRM ridden garbage forever
