Digital only games are fine. It's the drm policies that are the problem.



Around the Network

I don't have any interest in No Man's Sky. I haven't seen anything to get interested in it, but Rime looks good. The only digital games I've purchased on PSN were games from $.99 digital sales or PS+ offerings. Unless it gets a physical release or gets released on PS+, I can almost guarantee I won't get Rime because the price probably won't go under $5 on PSN.



This is sad for Rime, I assumed it was going to be retail.

As for no man's sky, the game has some online aspect to it, when the servers go down I think it will stop working... so we may as well get it only digital (same as Destiny).

I wonder how expensive limited physical edition runs would be. Would people pay a $5-10 premium for physical versions? You see this situation sometimes in niche titles.



90% sure they will cost more then $20 and there were a lot of physical editions for games this priced!

 

Also I'd rather pay $60 for each of these games then for another Generic Shooter

I'd rather see DRM then games not being sold on retail because of used copies eating most of the sales

I agree. I think it would be crazy if they didn't use these games to give the PS4 a bigger presence at retail. I also think that Don't Starve should be given a full retail release with all available DLC.



 

The PS5 Exists. 


As our games completely disappear into the digital realm, so do we. /deep

Its the DRM policy of "Have to be connected to PSN to play" that is the problem.  Has nothing to do with used retail games.  Why I use GOG.  My games might be digital on the PC, but it matters not if Im online or not to play them.
