But the reality of it was that when I put in the disc, what ended up happening was that they all just gave me a key for steam and a few could be used as a install source. The nonsteam games were used as keys, you needed the disc in the drive to play, but not because the data was read from the disc, because it had already been unpacked and installed, rather it used it as an authenticator.
Back when the Xbox One was announced, one of the hated features was that discs would be basically just installers. It was a change that showed just how easy it is to negate ownership with physical as it is digitally.
Rather, they just own the disc. Said disc can be lost, stolen, damaged as well. You still own the disc, only the distinction is that you can still lose access to the game even with the disc. And as somebody has mentioned below, this could easily also occur if you needed online access and some account to play anyway.
So how does one be secure in their access. Well, the people that go on all of the time about the evil publishers taking away access to digital games, seem more than willing to trust them with physical media. It is apparently through their goodwill I guess that you can still play many games through physical media. This is why there are so few stories of people losing access to all of their games. Businesses are businesses, they react to market demands and incentives.
If some publisher ever made it a habit of removing access, then they would be punished by the market due to people choosing not to buy from them anymore. Any market that rewarded such behavior deserved it.
But there is another huge check on such behavior. Now, one might be very much against piracy itself. But imagine somebody stole your physical copy of a game and you knew who did it. Chances are you would go and get it back somehow.
I see pirating a digital game after having it stolen from you to be in the same camp. Gaining the ability to do so is like arming myself against intruders.
So many people are against even the possibility to do so in those situations as bad. Speaking of robbery.
Have you ever lent a game out to a friend or family member and never gotten it back? What about actual robbery where somebody takes without permission one of your games. Barring getting it back from the one who stole it or the one who never gave it back, you are either out a game or the money to re-buy it.
What about when the game is damaged or lost? Out the game or the money to re-buy it. As gaming is progressing, chances are discs are going to be discontinued. Disc media, even blu-ray media is incredibly cheap everything considering. Even when you account for media quality and go for a good brand of media it costs a lot less for the same amount of space for flash. I know this article is a year old. I just did a search for Digital Vs Disc after being prompted with the choice.
The main reason I buy Digital copies of a game is the savings benefit. PS4 console update file. How to reinstall the PS4 console system software Reinstalling the system software on your PS4 console will delete all of the data on your PS4 console.
