For reference:
Also, this was Sony during the PS4 era:
If you’re going to get expensive hardware and be digital only, might as well go PC while you can. The money you save not having to pay PS Plus to play with friends would add up quick. Not to mention open source, privacy respecting options, no need to be online, modding, more welcoming communities, emulation, etc. If you want a console experience, you can use something like Bazzite or SteamOS.
If you truly loved it, you’d set it free 🥲

I enjoy gaming on my tv with a controller, i am not a heavy gamer nor an early adopter but if ps6 does not get a disk version i’m quite likely to not get a ps6 at all. They’ve been pushing me away from console gaming further and further with each new generation.
You could always get a steam machine or any variation of that like a dedicated pc hooked up to your tv.
Heck, even using a Steam Deck as a dedicated console would get you really far until you start playing AAA stuff. Even farther if you have a tolerance for dropping detail on things like anti-aliasing and dynamic shadows!
You don’t own your steam gamea btw.
You’re not wrong, but they’re more consumer friendly than either Sony or Microsoft. You also have a larger library of titles. You’re also not limited to Steam. GOG at least prides themselves on DRM free games. Probably the closest to digital ownership you’ll get today.
