minus-squareAgent_Karyo@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·24 days agoI don’t get the fascination with physical disc for modern consoles, it seems like the worst of both worlds. The only way to own your games is to have a DRM free installer on a platform that has backwards compatibility as a goal/feature (so not MacOS). PS2/PS1 discs sure, but from my understanding modern discs don’t function like they did back in the day.
