Probably just using a console instead of a PC for gaming; AFAIK, Steam doesn't exist on consoles (other than the Steam Deck), and you still have to buy physical media (which for some reason seems to act more like a license dongle, since as the parent comment mentions, you still have to download the whole game).
- the_only_law 4y agoDon’t most of the consoles have their own store though? Like I thought you didn’t have to purse the disk, you could go to the Xbox/PS/etc. store and just download the digital copy there.
- filoleg 4y agoYou are 100% correct. It made me essentially switch from all physical on consoles to "all digital, but physical for games I ended up liking a lot and would want to preserve/have it on my shelf". Mostly out of sheer convenience of not having to swap disks or look for them or having to dedicate space for them in my apt.
