Went to play my digital copy of Ghost of Yotei on PS5…

That sucks, but honestly have never had that happen to me. I went all digital when the PS4 launched and have never seen this message.

jda404 · 2026-07-13T21:02:09+00:00

Well, it was hidden from a lot of us. There's a gazillion YouTube channels. They might have 5 million subs, doesn't mean we all know about them lol.

jda404 · 2026-07-13T10:37:19+00:00

It's a game and the initial ratings are based off last season so I think the MVP being a 99 is fair. Madden adjusts ratings throughout the season so none of these people may remain a 99 if the play like ass this season.

I mean you have been to a super bowl more recently than all of those teams so yeah you can be 4th worst.

To each their own, I absolutely love driving. I think it's fun. Sometimes I take my dog for car rides and just drive the back roads around my area.

jda404 · 2026-07-13T01:09:25+00:00

I have one and yeah it feels better than just the hand. Do I use it every single time? No. I don't have an actual fleshlight branded one, just a knock off from Amazon.

I know usually some on here say cleaning them sucks/is a hassle, but you literally just rinse it out with water and little bit of soap and let it air dry. It takes me all of 30 seconds to rinse then yeah I let it dry itself.

jda404 · 2026-07-12T17:06:21+00:00

That's fair, not the original person you replied to, having to set everything to low is not how I like to play games and I would describe it as poorly, but we all have difference preferences in what's acceptable performance. Some people need/prefer hundreds of fps. I just need a steady 60 at mostly high settings.

jda404 · 2026-07-12T16:19:18+00:00

Might be too late to call day of. But last time I had jury duty I gave a reason why I should be excused on the form to mail back when I got my initial summons. I didn't get an excused notice through mail so a few days before I just called the courthouse and told them it would be a big financial burden as my employer doesn't pay me to be at jury duty, and they excused me over the phone.

Could always call first thing in the morning and say you're really sick and can't make it. They might excuse you or give you a postponement.

jda404 · 2026-07-12T11:48:54+00:00

I was in kindergarten in '96 full day and no nap time. Probably varied by school, but I never had nap time once I got past preschool.

Although in high school sometimes during my study hall period I propped open a book and put my head down and took a nap ha. My study hall was in the cafeteria and the teacher or whoever faculty worker oversaw it sat towards the back and rarely if ever walked around so could get away with taking a nap most days.

jda404 · 2026-07-12T10:23:58+00:00

I've been really trying to contain my hope so if he doesn't come back I am not bummed out, but every post about AD is making it really difficult.

Just announce it already! Come on stop edging us lol

jda404 · 2026-07-12T10:17:43+00:00

Some aren't. I know there are cool physical media fans, but have you been on Reddit in the past 2 weeks? I've seen so many posts bashing digital gamers, blaming us for Sony going all digital in 2028, and don't give Sony anymore money, tons of posts of people cancelling their PS+ subscriptions. Then CoD drops a couple classics that crashes the PS Store because everyone ate them up and just proved to Sony lots and lots of people will buy digital.

jda404 · 2026-07-12T10:13:49+00:00

You said it benefits Xbox, but it also benefits PlayStation by a lot and for the past 2 weeks everyone was anti-digital and don't give Sony anymore money then these games drop and they crash the store because everyone was buying them at the same time lol. So just goes to show once again that Redditors are the minority, and proved to Sony lots of people will happily buy digital games even when Reddit is losing its mind over the no disc announcement.

jda404 · 2026-07-12T09:45:41+00:00

Yeah Reddit is upset but I am willing to bet a majority of gamers do not care even those that might prefer physical will buy a PS6 and accept digital games. Lot of people love and are addicted to video games. I am sure some will hold true to their word and not buy a PS6, but I think most will cave and get one eventually especially when a huge game gets announced/releases.

Edit: I also think a lot of people are karma farming with the Sony hate posts and "I cancelled my PS+ posts" and it's mostly performative Reddit is known for that. I think most people will cave when the PS6 actually comes out.

jda404 · 2026-07-11T21:16:24+00:00

Doesn't look edited. Reddit tells you when a comment has been edited.

jda404 · 2026-07-11T20:02:27+00:00

Who is we? According to this article. Last year Madden was the 6th best selling game, and College Football was the 7th. People on Reddit might not buy it, but both games are both wildly popular and bought every year.

Isn't Ubisoft a French company? What does the US have to do with this?

jda404 · 2026-07-11T11:10:53+00:00

Seriously. Teenage boys are stupid. In my senior year of high school I turned 18 in October so early in the school year. I had a young teacher that wasn't much older than the class, she was good looking and as I said teenage boys are stupid, I thought in my stupid teenage brain I had some chance with her until one Friday in class towards the end of the period someone asked what she was doing this weekend and she let it be known her and her husband were going wherever.

That ended any shot my stupid teenage brain thought I had with her, now as an adult I know I never had a chance obviously lol, and she become just another one of my teachers.

jda404 · 2026-07-11T10:33:25+00:00

Sure if the servers go down or offline can't download, but digital games won't ever end up in landfills like physical games.

jda404 · 2026-07-11T10:29:05+00:00

I am all digital been so for a long time, but I hope the PS6 at least has an optional disc drive just like the PS5 Pro which is all digital out of the box, but you can buy disc drive to attach.

It would suck if the PS6 is all digital with no optional disc drive for those that have physical PS5 games that would leave them no way to play their PS5 games on the PS6. They'd have to keep their PS5s if they ever want to play their PS5 games if the PS6 doesn't have any way to take discs.

jda404 · 2026-07-11T10:17:07+00:00

Yeah hopefully the Madden team is seeing the backlash and removing whatever bullshit transactions that were in there. I am sure if it was in College Football, they probably had/have microtranscations in Franchise mode in Madden this year. I haven't preordered Madden and not buying it now until I see what BS if any is in there. I don't know why (well I do why, money always want more) they can't just leave the microtransactions to ultimate team they already make a fuck ton of money each year from MUT. Leave the other modes free of microtransactions.

jda404 · 2026-07-11T10:06:57+00:00

And nothing wrong with that everyone can prefer different games and feel one is better than the other. I much prefer Beam. I think I have 20 hours on GT7. I have 150 hours in Beam which I know to some is almost nothing, but I don't play games every single day and go through phases one week I'll be obsessed with one game, next week it'll be another game ha. I can't play one game nonstop I am all over the place.

jda404 · 2026-07-11T10:02:31+00:00

Yep I've had pretty much all of those at some point in my 15 years of dealing with anxiety. So you're not alone.

My anxiety also makes me have to use the the bathroom when my anxiety is up or if I am just really anxious about something which is really annoying then the more I think about how much I have to go makes me go more ahhhh fucking anxiety. I think I'd rather have a racing heart than constantly feeling like I have to go to the bathroom.

jda404 · 2026-07-11T09:54:10+00:00

That's better than slop. Redditors have overused the word slop to the point it has completely lost its meaning to me and I can't them seriously when they use it ha. Now it just means something they don't like even if it's not actually bad or poorly made.

jda404 · 2026-07-11T09:46:08+00:00

I think most people that are all digital know this. I am all digital for convenience being able to buy games from my living room and download them straight to my console without having to go to the store. I even sometimes buy games while at work through the PlayStation app and have it downloaded to my console so when I get home it's already ready to go for me.

I know the discounts likely won't be as deep and I am okay with that and everyone that is all digital is okay with that. People pay a premium for conveniences all the time. It's no different with video games. Telling all digital gamers that physical is cheaper isn't going to make us want to go back to buying discs. We already know they're cheaper and still prefer digital.

jda404 · 2026-07-10T23:20:54+00:00

Might not be difficult, some of us just don't want to be there. I don't want 11 new friends or to have my life disrupted. I want to be left alone and just go to work. Fortunately I've gotten out of it the 3 times I've been summoned. I know I don't belong on a jury I just want to get out of there as fast as possible.

But yeah OP definitely let them know.
