This could be the case, or could not be. They shared a post on Reddit 19 hours ago from their official account, and I thought it might be nice to share that here, at least to spark some discussion.
They simply shared a post titled:
Shall we? 📦💿

So you’ve never run out of space on your HDD, or replaced your machine, or wanted to lend or sell your game? You’re in the minority.
Will the physical media get scratched, have bit rot, or no longer have a device it will work in?
At least with a file I can simply back it up, buy a new drive, put it into my server, leave a copy at a friends house and all the other ways we back up our data.
I dobt really care about lending a game, but they can come over and play it if they want.
Selling it seems like more hassle than its worth, and frankly even now we (collective we as in all of us) are simply throwing away DVDs, cds, and until recently older games.
I would rather just know that I have a game I can play anytime forever and that’s that.
You’re just grasping now.
Lol what? I’m “grasping”?
I do not want physical media. It’s wasteful and gives me no benefit, takes up space and has a limited lifetime.
How is that grasping?
