I won't tag as responding to a few earlier response.

Yes the carts may be slow, and yes you may have to copy to internal to play it faster. But at the end of the day if the gaming industry wants us to embrace digital they need to make it user friendly to be treated as something that I own and can do what I want with it.

I don't want to be virtual ejecting games from one console to another. If my account is logged in on my consoles it should just work.

If my console fails and I buy another one I should be able to simply plug in my external with my games on it and be able to play it.

There is way too much DRM software locking and hardware locking that makes modern console effectively useless when a generation ends if they go down a full digital path.

Hell a Ubisoft employee (maybe it was the CEO), said that gamers should get used to not owning games.

If that is the attitude of the industry, people will switch to piracy as they want it to be easy access and own it.

Because of this shady DRM nonsense, I have reduced my gaming purchases by 98%. I have zero desire supporting any developer if they can't respect the consumer. If they make my life difficult on one system, I just don't buy their games on any system anymore. I know at the end of the day I am one consumer, but eventually there will be enough people out there who will simply give up and the gaming industry will start to shrink again.
