Yeah, I move my Steam games I'm not playing onto a 2TB HDD, and the games I play currently are on my SSD. But it's always nice to be able to download again if you lost your files for whatever reason. Also why I like the Steam cloud service, primary reason I always want the Steam version of a game (can continue my save on another computer without having to worry about copying any files).

Soon telltales games will no longer exist.

Yes because we all know they never, ever, made physical versions of their games.

Then that's tough. Some of the games have been on there for years. If they didn't play them now then they most likely weren't interested in the first place.

This can also happen with some physical games mind you, where it gets difficult to find a good working copy because it's a rare game.

Steam can and will remove games eventually. Microsoft did it with the games for windows store by never migrating purchases or games to the windows store. I called several times and their response is either games bought digitally are owned by them and only licensed to you. Digital games suck

I believe the only ones they've pulled so far are Back To The Future, Tales of Monkey Island and the Walking Dead games.

I imagine most of the rest will follow suit at some point.

I mean, sure, but then game developers and valve lose the right to complain about piracy.

You also arent factoring in the future. What if your son wants to buy the game 20 years from now?

That wasn't the point. What I was getting at was this is a big example of why digital is a stupid idea to begin with. Downloading means you are saving the information to your physical drive. Services being removed from servers like this is anti-consumer and doesn't get called out as such enough. This is exactly the fear people had about digital way back and companies were quick to say they wouldn't pull games from servers but here we are.

What's the difference between me downloading a file and storing it physically versus buying the same file already stored physically? My downloaded file can be stored longer as well since I have far more options to back it up. The physical copy also won't have the latest updates.

You aren't paying someone money to make you take an extra step. The "updates" should have been a completed project to begin with. You're paying for their sloppy R&D cycle and enabling companies to fleece you for DLC. Plus, you need to have (read: pay again) internet access to keep this process going. This is versus say buying a cart/disc once and having a completed transaction.

Yeah, it'll probably be rereleased under the Skybound label once they start finishing Season 4.

So you don't buy modern video games then? And again I can just put my copy on a disc or whatever else I want. I already do this with my HDD.

Most of the recent gen... no, sadly @ssjevot

Its a reason I don't own the current gen consoles

Last gen with Xbox music disabling music videos that you paid for and PSN removing games from its service made me tap out

That's really too bad. Some of the best games to come out of this generation are digital only and games are cheaper than ever on PC.
