This means you can’t pass the game around to your friends or sell it afterwards, which completely ruins the purpose of physical media imo. I mostly play PC these days so this doesn’t affect me, but it’s a disappointing direction for console games. At least they could’ve used an empty disc that has proof of ownership.

EDIT: Bethesda has confirmed that only the PC version won’t include a disc. Physical versions of Xbox will include a disc. Whew.

    most people rarely read the directions (and it shows), but I recall loving reading the manuals to my Nintendo64 games

      Remember the little note section at the end of some manuals to scribble your tips and codes?
