It depends on how people perceive value. Having something tangible in your hands increases the perceived value. At least to me.

Myself, I would not pay the same amount for an e-book compared to a physical paper one. For games my limit is about EUR30 for digital. Above that I want physical.

If somewhere in the future Physical does not exist anymore, I don't see me buying that many full prized anymore. Max 1 a year. The rest then will be either heavily discounted or cheaper AA (Indy) games.

Perhaps I am the outlier, but if sufficient people like me exist, it's in the interest of publishers to have physical as an option to retain full prize level.

If physical is gone completely, the only way I'd still game is through something like Gamepass, be it Nintendo, Sony or Microsoft. I just can't fork over more than a few bucks on a digital title. I just can't. Renting is about all I could get behind.
