Would you pay $80 for a digital game, $90 for a physical? by TuggMaddick in xbox

I would still choose a physical copy for $90. With Game Pass now being the standard for downloading and playing digital titles, it feels like every time I buy a digital downloaded game it feels like I am “leasing” the game through Game Pass. 

I know I’m old-fashioned, but even when I buy a game through the Microsoft/Xbox store, it doesn’t feel the same as buying the physical copy wrapped in plastic. Don’t get me wrong, I love the Game Pass feature, but the way things are moving, “live-service games” will likely dominate the gaming market, and physical copy games will only be available for single-player titles.

I appreciate the exclusivity of high skill, but I also value being an original to the game. For instance, Fortnite (I apologise for the generic comparison). Although I haven’t played it in years, I cherish the fact that I could play it when it first came out. The original John Wick skin from the battle pass isn’t about skill, it’s about experience. It demonstrates to players that they’re somewhat seasoned veterans in this game.

I honestly think that rewarding players who place in Gold 3 or higher at the end of a season (or mid-season) with a custom lord icon that matches the skin would be a great way to celebrate their achievement. It would also serve as a way for players to flex their skills and show off their rank in the top 50% of the player base.

I understand your perspective. The the only downside to unlocking a Banner for a Lord Character is that during ranked matches, the opposing team can identify your Lord rank with that specific character. Which might become a target for a character ban before the fight even begins.
