I've been a PlayStation guy since 1998. Looks like the PS5 is my last PlayStation console.
Steam being all digital is fine because I'm buying games for 75-90% off.. If I got told I was losing access to a game I played $2.50 for 6 years ago and played for 40 hours I would.. actually I'd still be annoyed but less annoyed than losing hundreds of dollars.
Also, if they delist a game you had, you can just sail the high seas easily, and there are even revival projects for always-online games that reverse engineer servers.
