Will you keep supporting PlayStation?

Nintendo has already introduced Game-Key Cards on the Switch 2. It's not the end of physical media yet, but it is another step toward a more digital future. To me, this shows that the whole industry is gradually heading in that direction.

But the industry doesn't have overall a compelling pitch to offer the people that bankroll the industry, the buyers.

That's true.

If Sony is going down the "You will own NOTHING and you will LIKE IT!" route then pirate every single PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, PS5, PSP, and PS Vita game ever made! Also, buy the PS6 secondhand so Sony doesn't get any of your money then jailbreak it and put every game it has on it for free!

If buying isn't owning then piracy isn't stealing!

Sony will stop releasing new games in physical format starting in 2028. It's a decision that's causing a lot of backlash, and I completely understand why so many players are upset.

That said, I think that even if Sony hadn't made this move, Microsoft or even Nintendo would probably have gone in the same direction sooner or later. The entire gaming industry is moving more and more toward digital distribution.

Yeah, pretty sure this was going to happen eventually sooner or later.

Absolutely not. I was already moving towards PC, but after a run in with their PS Plus and their other BS, I've pretty much decided to cut them off completely. Playstation just isn't what it used to be.
