Will that drive still work on the PS6? Will it work in 20 years? Can you buy more games after a Sony has shutdown the digital store? Can you sell your digital purchases if you don't want them anymore?
Those are the kinds of problems physical media solves.
I buy digital media on my PC and physical media on my consoles, because PC games aren't hardware specific whereas console games are.
I fear more and more games will become like BG3, digitally exclusive. I asked for it for my birthday and was told the game didn't exist for PS5. I was confused, as I most certainly have been reading reviews, then I found out it's only digital and thats why no one saw a copy.
Yeah, it's too bad they don't have a physical release, but it is DRM-free on PC, so game preservation is totally not an issue.
