I’m pro physical media, but real physical media, not not key cards, not code in a box, not requiring an always on connection, not full base game but DLC is a code.
I think all games should be able to work in perpetuity without any external validation or activation across it’s entire life.
What difference would it make?
Sony does love its proprietary parts lock-in. Having a cart that doesn’t work on anything else would appeal to that urge.
I’m mostly curious if this is about having a physical copy of the game or something else.
What about something completely new? Not cartridge, not a disc. Something that hasn’t been invented. Maybe something like a PSP memory stick.
And they’re Sony, this is lemmy. Nothing here is going to make a difference.
I’m struggling to understand what this would achieve as well. They’re objectively more expensive to manufacture.
Well there’s an argument that plays right into their hands. Nothing at all is even cheaper.
Whose side are you on here, anyway?

Hope that clears things up.
