I used to get all PS4 games digitally from the US store when the dollar was weak, it was usually about 25-30% cheaper than in EU (and with some shady sharing that Sony patched now we could get new games for $20).
Now that the dollar is close to the Euro, I simply buy whatever is cheaper (meaning whichever version drops to €25-30 faster).

Sharing spoiled me, and I cannot pay full price for games anymore.

No. I've gone out of my way to own a physical copy (imported DW7 Empires for around $60 when the game was on PSN for $29.99), so price will not make a difference. Only when physical is completely out of the picture will I be forced to resign myself to buying most digital games.

Yes I probably would buy more games. Those digital prices, particularly in EU are RIDICULOUS.

Sometimes even a 50% digital sale does not even make the game cheaper than the regular Amazon price.

Probably not. I prefer physical over digital, so I will likely stick with that until everything becomes digital...

Both of these games were just on sale.

I'm torn on digital. I love the box, disk/cart, manual combo, but not having to swap out disks is so convienient. Besides most physical games these days already come without one my most beloved parts, the manual.
As a child I always loved reading through the manual of a freshly bought game on the drive home from the store or on christmas eve, before I was allowed to actually play it (after family dinner :P). It's just like this magical little sneak peak of great things to come, plus they usually have these geougeous little flavor illustrations and I miss them. Until recently Nintendo used to at least have these folded quick manual sheets, but even those were gone from Splatoon and Yoshis Woolly World.

Aheam, back OT, while I love physical I've bought my fair share of digital games, usually for under 15€ or less, as part of a specail promotion etc., so clearly I'm not averse to buying digital at the right price.
I just don't see why I should pay the same price for digital at launch when I don't get any of the benefits that come with physical. In addition to that digital is easier/cheaper to produce for them too, due to no manufacturing and shipping costs. I think that should be reflected in the price.
Nintendo for example tries to get around this by telling you that you're paying for the intellectual property of the game either way, so in Nintendos eyes they give you the box+disk+whatever else is inside for free and literally the only thing you pay for is the intellectual property of the game. I don't quite agree with them on that, but whatever.

My main problem with digital is however that it gets increasingly more unviable as an option the older the game gets. Even with Nintendo games that drop extremely slowly in price, the gap between the slowly declining retail price and the forever stable digital price gets bigger and bigger.
This gets to a point that whenever they do a special promotion or pricedrop on the eshop and I go and look at the physical games price on Amazon the physical edition will have the competitive price edge over even the specially limited discounted digital version, usually by 2-5€. In many cases it's just not smart to go digital pricewise.

I'd be way faster going digital with a lot of games if they were more competetively priced and would only get nice collectors edition physicals for my alltime favourite games. Because digital is convienient and easy to use. It doesn't even need to be a huge diffrence but at least five bucks at launch and then special discounts now and then would be enough of an incentive for me.

I would buy more digital games but not not more than retail games!
Retail is oldschool and better than digital imo.

It depends, if it's a game I'm sure I want to keep I'll stick to physical. If it's a game I suspect I might trade in again, then I could be swayed if it's less than half the price of the physical version.

For PC games I simply wait until it drops under $10 in a Steam sale. Ori didn't make it yet, I'll get it and the end of the year in the next sale.

That's entirely besides the point. This thread is about launch and/or regular pricing and not deals.
I didn't show deals either, those are random examples of new-ish games on both Steam and Amazon to demonstrate that there's no reason to buy games on Steam when they are not on sale, which is EXACTLY the point of this thread. Digital being more expensive than retail, even though it could be easily the other way around.

Yes. I have over 140 steam games. I never would have even considered buying digital before.
