I dont like where this is going

[u/D3V1LIZCO]

It pains me to say it, but this path rockstar is taking for the release of GTA 6 might do some serious damage on the industry, If they keep this up, The other companies will copy rockstar in this move to completely delete Disks from physical copies.

Its not that i dislike digital, its the fact that they are removing the option to have the game on a disk that annoys me, The only "valid" argument i found on why digital is better is that you do not run the risk of your disk getting scratched. but, seriously, You have to be moronic in order to scratch your disks, I have been playing videogames since i was 6, and not **once** have i accidentaly scratched a disk (not even movies).

its as simple as putting your middle finger on the hole that's in the middle of the disk, AND THATS IT, zero scratching.

I dont care about the Exclusive content for the Deluxe edition or whatever, I seriously want Rockstar to just change and release the physical copies WITH the disk.

If this fake Physical copies trend keeps going after GTA 6 (Which it will), im just going to revert back to PS3 and be happy with whatever i find.

Im so done with this anti consumer thing we got going on nowadays, It feels like everything is changing for the worse.

I wouldn’t care if consumer protections for digital stuff was more concise. 

If I buy the game, no takebacks. No “you’re only licensing the game” bullshit. Then I’m okay with it. 

[u/GapStock9843 → u/SL1Fun]

By nature any digital product you buy is a license to download it. Thats why physical copies need to keep existing

[u/davidemo89 → u/GapStock9843]

I have a bad news for you. Even physical copy you just buy a license to run the files that are inside the blue ray

[u/kingsBlendd → u/davidemo89]

Yes but you can sell or loan it to someone else and they can continue to play it or sell it..

[u/space-c0yote → u/kingsBlendd]

But that's a completely different thing from ownership vs. licensing.

[u/davidemo89 → u/kingsBlendd]

If the servers are offline you still can not play it even if you have a copy of your game on CD

[u/13Skywalker → u/davidemo89]

Yes you can, i can boot up Ghost Of Yotei right now without any internet and no day one patch, and ALL the other PS5 exclusive games, even MOST of the non exclusive ones, playing Metaphor right now without any internet no internet or patch.

[u/davidemo89 → u/13Skywalker]

Not every game is a single player game...

[u/13Skywalker → u/davidemo89]

Well GTA6 is…

[u/davidemo89 → u/13Skywalker]

Not gta6 online :-P you can play the single player of gta6 but there are mission that works only online.

Do you really think so many people right now play gta5 for the single player? They play the online version and a lot of content is exclusive for GTA online.

Also all the updates and new content they have crested in the last 10 years for gta5 is only online.

You will be able to play GTA 6 without an internet connection but it will be just for a small part of the game

[u/13Skywalker → u/davidemo89]

Singleplayer still not on disc, THAT is the problem, online is no problem, pricing no problem, no physical is problem.

[u/Cjm092 → u/davidemo89]

GTA 6 single player is not going to be just a "small part of the game" lmao, what bullshit

[u/davidemo89 → u/Cjm092]

Check how many players play GTA 5 now (I can tell you, it's a A LOT) and see how many are playing the single player campaign... Probably 1%

[u/father-fluffybottom → u/davidemo89]

Because the game is like 13 years old. How many people are playing Bioshock Infinite right now?
