Might as well move over to PC if you're a physical collector. Not getting disc anymore so you have no reason to be on a locked down platform.

Most PC users use Steam for gaming. There is no physical gaming for PC anymore.

Ten years ago I spent a ton of money on a gaming laptop and went out and bought a game on disk to play. I got home and went to put it in my laptop and realised it didn't even have a disk tray.

You can always just add one though.

I almost added one in mine, and then realized I never used the one in the other pc. So why spend an extra 200 towards it.

So I put that 200 to upgrading the ram

$200 on an optical drive?!?! What?! 😭😭

Yes. Blue ray burners are usually from 50 to 300 dollars. Depending on quality.

I'm not going to put a cheap 50 dollar burner in a 3k system...

A DVD +\- RW should run about $25 new

Blu ray.

Fuck uses DVD any more

u/nathanzoet91 Jul 01 '26

No one really uses either anymore. Games do not generally come on a Blu_ray for PC, they came on a DVD

Exactly, which is why I didnt put one in and just spent that on ram
