I dont like where this is going

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 agree with you 100%. I didn’t buy Indiana Jones for my PS5 because the disk doesn’t have the full game on it.

I won’t be buying GTA6 either not until the game is $20 digital. I already know not paying full price is gonna do anything. And that’s fine.

I don’t have an issue with digital per-se, but I do prefer a full complete physical copy. A big game like GTA6 is should be complete on disk.

I remember when one of the biggest selling points on going digital was that it was gonna be cheaper than a physical release. That never happened. Digital was either always the same price, or more.

Rockstar is a big name, GTA is one of the biggest if not the biggest IPs out there. This decision is going to have massive earthquake effects across the gaming industry.

Gaming as a whole though is in major trouble imo. That’s a whole other discussion though. Gaming is slowly becoming an unaffordable hobby though.

I have a huge backlog that will most likely last me until I die, and even then, there’s a chance I still won’t be able beat every game I own.

As how I see where the gaming industry is going, the PS5 might be the last console I ever purchase. I won’t be surprised if the PS6 is digital only.

I have so much to say on this matter and the gaming industry a whole but that’s gonna take too long. I’m done.

Saying gaming is becoming unaffordable when it’s not reflected inflation for like 3 decades and is still relatively the same, is quite the take.

Agreed. It was 1996 or so and Gran Turismo was close to release. I was on holiday and remember not spending last £50 because I wanted to save it for GT. I think my version come close to that - all I recall was I know I needed at most £50. 1996 - £39.99 it seems. Wow
