People are making too much of a big deal about the lack of physicals.
Honestly, it's not that big of a deal. Think of all the waste that will get reduced in terms of disks and packaging. And all the unnecessary labor. This is a step in the right direction for Sony and PlayStation as far as I'm concerned.
It is so much easier for everything to be digital considering how ubiquitous internet access is now, and physical discs are just collector's items atp. Tbh, all of you who own tons of physicals should be happy about this development because the value of those physicals will only go up now since they won't produce anymore.
But this changes nothing in terms of the actual gaming experience, and it is more environmentally friendly and economic than unnecessarily producing physicals. It's only a matter of time before everyone realizes how much of a bonus this is for gaming as a whole. The only thing I am concerned about is if they raise the price of PS+ unnecessarily, but other than that this is a positive development and people should stop crying so much about it.
It's time to progress into the future in terms of the technology behind gaming.
