ominous ocelot

Baby shark, doo, doo, doo, doo.

Reselling isn’t a thing with any PC game store I know. Which is the only drawback for me. Is it possible to sell my old PS game discs or are they attached to my PS account?

So… Sony could, from a technical POV, block games which come on disc, too? It’s just a tiny firmware update. And good luck playing GTA online or Diablo 4 with an offline PS to prevent updates. Or any game which needs a newer PS firmware.

The root issue seems to be that you are not root on your PS. And you don’t trust Sony with that role.

At one point people decided that they needed that shiny new ps-only exclusive title regardless. And Sony knows that the majority doesn’t care about control, as long as they don’t take it away from them.

Disabling games which someone bought licensed is a thing with Sony? That ecosystem has bigger problems than a missing disc drive it seems.

What possibilities are lost with the disc(ontinuation)? Has running the PS without a permanent network connection been a regular use case for many? Are DLCs and frequent patches and updates not a thing in the Sony sphere?
