DoesItPlay only features 3,000 games, a vast majority coming from pre-PS5/XBSXS hardware. E.g. DIP has not one Sony Computer Entertainment published game playable on PS5. Therefore, this stat you provide contradict my initial comment; however, maybe “9 out of 10” is a little hyperbolic. I don’t know the precise figures… probably closer to 5 out of 10 (or more).

I own around ~20 (I think it's 22) physical PS5 games, and my only game that requires a patch to play is Hogwarts Legacy. Their 84% number for playable games on discs seems accurate, or at least make sense for me 

And it's not like I was purposefully looking for physical games with data on discs, I simply buy them and the data was (as expected) in the discs. In fact I only see Nintendo fans claiming PS5 physical games are not on discs. They are on discs, please stop spreading misinformation 

Your testimony is no strong than mine: Every game I have purchased on PS5 to date has had a Day One patch. The list of games are as follows— SpiderMan 2, God of War Ragnorak, Astro Bot, FFVII Intergrade & Rebirth, Pac Man World RePAC, and TLoU:Pt1. These are not required downloads AFAIA (and my initial point never pointed toward such as being required oops i just reread my initial comment…well, my intent was not that the downloads were required), but they are patches that make the difference on whether a game is compromised.

I suggest you stop promoting manufactured outrage, especially knowing how much you lean digital releases via PC (which are no more “owned” than a GKC, unless you have the files stored on your computer, which — again — such practice is not common today. Not with anti-piracy measures e.g. Denovo).
