This fear mongering is stupid. PC games have been all digital for like a decade now. I literally have over 1600 digital pc games and not one of them has ever been made not to work. shyt, even games that have been taken off Steam still play just fine (and yes, you can still download them again).
Digital is most definitely the future. Get used to it

And who would create it for that matter
I mean, they can do the same thing with physicals too. All they have to do is force a software update that blocks the game from playing.
But, this is where piracy serves its rightful need. Just download that shyt illegally
I mean, it’s true.
How hard would it really be for Sony or Microsoft to force an update to play a new hit game on their systems that also makes some game not work anymore? For instance, If RDR2 made you update your system to play the game, are you really not going to download that update? Are you really not going to play RDR2?

That's exactly why it wouldn't happen, they're not introducing firmware for 1 game that breaks compatibility of other games.
Two, developers patch their own game and are the ones that get their games pulled from stores.
People would just read the news online and not download the patch

You add that into the firmware of the console, not into a game patch.
Sony does it all the time, Nintendo recently did it to circumvent the hackers.
That's why you can't even play games you bought physically out of the box without going online IF you updated your Switch or bought a game with a higher firmware key than your Switch.
Gaming has been like this for a long time.
The days of owning your shyt is out the window, You're leasing that mother fukker like Microsoft Windows. if you break TOS, you can be banned and your entire library put in the trash
You didn't answer my question...
ALL of YOU are going to learn...
The likelihood of this occurring is significantly less frequent than having a physical disc break, stolen or lost. What are we bytching about in here? That one method isn't perfect?
According to the reddit post. He wasn't the only one that had this issue.
And EA apparently deleted his case ID too and the entire conversation... Not sure why he didn't screen shot the entire convo but, it is what it is
Another one had this story:
Basically the same thing happened to me, nearly all my games disappeared from my origin library and when I contacted them all they said was "there is no trace of you ever owning these games" and "games don't just disappear" and when I provided receipt they just disconnected the support chat. I am never again buying games via origin.
EA fukking up it seems. And they are trying to hide it. Why? Who knows.
and apparently, his reddit post was temporarily removed for an unknown reason, and people are thinking it was EA that did it

But why would you give these companies the power to turn your game off and erase your account tho??? Aren't you playing into their hands by following their plan with the all digital release... Also I have never lost any of my games or broken any of them at all...
I put them right back into their case. or get a cd sleeve it makes it easier.
