For example, I got the all-digital Xbox Series S, and already regret it, as I've noticed Microsoft removes games they don't want you playing anymore. Such as old Forza games.

You also can't re-sell your old games and eventually we could reach a point where all gaming is done on subscription services, which will become VERY expensive if that does become the only option.

Sorry to go on a tangent. 

I see both sides.

As someone who grew up in the sticks, getting physical copies of games wasn't always realistic. I'm good with downloading games. If, at 2 AM on a Thursday, my drunk ass wants to play Worms Armageddon, I download it. Bam. There it is. My disc gets scratched? Nope, I DL'ed the game.

Imo, DA:I was not a good game, but people swear by it.

I'd never heard of Control; it's actually a pretty fun game. It's a lot like the New Weird stories from the SCP Foundation (I think that's what it's called; I haven't checked it out in years).

Man, I've done six play throughs of DA:I. It's one of my favorite games.
