The relevant section is blunt. “The Software is licensed to you, not sold,” the EULA states. “You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and personal license to play or use the Software for your private, non-commercial use on the system or device it was intended for.”
The terms also restrict renting, modifying, or obtaining games through unauthorised means. Nothing in there is new, technically. Sony’s EULA has always said this. The timing is what makes it land differently right now.
Valve had a massive hand in killing off physical PC releases and the sizable market of digital distribution.
There were so many different platforms out there. Some that didn’t involve having to install a third party launcher to play physical discs. IGN even had one.
Valve killed them with the same exclusivity deals you G*mer troglodytes bitch and moan about with Epic.
Thanks for idiocy-signaling by trying to make fetch happen, makes it easy to know ahead of time not to take anything you say seriously
