Do you prefer physical or digital?

[Vendicator Senpai]

When it comes to video games, I don't prefer one over the other but do prefer physical as I can trade it in later down the line when I am done with it.

when it comes to manga though, 100% physical

[Basarab Laiota]

physical
it's just more fun

I prefer digital everything. Because it takes up no space apart from data and I like to keep a minimal/tidy lifestyle.

[GlaceonChireiden]

Digital if it's a game I know I'll play a lot so I don't have to worry about putting in a disc every time

Physical for every other reason

[ṼṏẌṏḭḊ]

Digital. I hate physical media.

[Wild Child]

I like the convenience of digital. But physical means you actually own it. And definitely physical for the manga.

Physical... all it needs is one good size EMP and everything digital will go "poof" gone.

If you can't hold it, you don't own it.

Digital makes more sense, but it could have been done without removing the right to resell games - and instead only buying the game for a certain account with that distribution change.

You didn´t own it before as well, but You had more rights about it. Like borrowing it, or selling it. But that obviously doesn´t generate money for a company.

B'lee dat.

[DarkCrystalMethod]

I want to hold someone mutually.
As for games physical only if its guaranteed to still be there on the shelf(or order online) to replace if I break the disk. Once the game is installed I'm glad though that at least on steam it takes care of the patches and updates for me.
But Windows crashes eventually, sometimes faster in some years... so I'd need the offline installer to put the basic files back, then it can go figure itself out once I'm "online".

physical is great but these days getting my hand on a physical copy of a game mean ordering it online and waiting a week for it since I live far away from everything and there is not much games stores around anymore.

so in general the only games I want physical copies are the games I like the most.

[Kargor]

Nowadays, at least on PC, "physical" isn't really an option anymore.

I've never had a console, so...

And the fact that they can remove it ( or edit it ) digitally even after you purchase it...

But if it's in your possession physically... they can do nothing about it.

I enjoy both. I have a feeling the digital market is gonna get corrupt or gaming will become illegal so if you need a physical copy dealer you know who to call. :3
