Sadly purchasing a phyical copy still will mean you can't play it due to the required download for most consoles these days.
That's one reason I've ordered a few titles from PlayAsia recently. For example, the NTSC switch edition of the Metal Gear Solid collection requires downloading the titles. With the PlayAsia edition, lo and behold- everything is on the card, and multiple languages to boot.
Never heard of that before today, that's fucked, why even is that a thing?
Some places have crappy internet, so they need it
You and I can download a 1300MB game, it's not necessarily so in Brunei
Hence “and enjoy it whenever and wherever I want.” If they maintain control, it’s not sold. It is, at best, rented.
Fortunately, there are often tools to enforce the first sale doctrine.
