    This reminds me, a bunch of people claim that the only reason anyone would ever prefer physical copies is for nostalgia, but like, I’m from Eastern Europe and while I did have physical copies of a sort growing up, they were nothing like what actual copies are like.

    They were like 5 games crammed into a CD usually by ripping stuff like cutscenes and music, with the names of the games written in pen on a sheet of paper or in marker on the CD, that you bought from random market stalls lmao

      Oh my god that brings me back. My dad used to travel all over the world for work, and he would bring back bootleg games and movies. Those were the good old days. Ripping DVDs on old HP computers running XP lol. Now that’s a nostalgia trip for me.
