Console players can add more space. That is probably only half the reason. The other half is that they want a physical copy so they "own" the game, which is technically false. Other than that, being able to sell the game is probably a highlight. If you are poor, I guess.

I don't get why people care so much about this issue. 99% of my friends who own physical releases only own them to show them off on the shelf. They don't actually care about what is on the disc. Even those who DO care about the full game being on disc, you still have to download the updates and DLC, which is not on the disc. If they only buy physical to save space, this is pretty pointless in 2025. My PS5 has over 4 terabytes of storage, and you can get more.

Does anyone else prefer the way the older games were more linear & we had classic temples/weapons? I have no interest in building junk in a Zelda game, and I dislike not having classic items like the hookshot.
