No no no. I want a bunch of little tiny plastic and cardboard pieces that take forever to arrange and pack up when I’m done. I want text that’s too small to read. I want a rules book that I need a degree in to properly interpret. And only ever want to play during the handful of times a year I can get everyone around the table together.
Seriously? Maybe it’s just cuz I was a poor kid who had to play the same games a shit ton but I went through at least 5 different disks in my time that I can think of just from playing them too hard.
Something closer to to 50 for disks that were scratched from other shit, though that’ll include music CDs and DVDs too
The only disk that I ever had get destroyed because of my own incompetence. Was a copy of the first season of Stargate SG one, it was actually the first disc of that season. And what happened was I left it outside of its case, in an area that allowed the sun to go across it every single day for about a month and a half.
It discolored the disk, and also made it unplayable , had to buy a new one.
That was fully on me.
Many of my games that I played in the late 90s and early 2000s I would play over and over and over and over again, never scratched them.
It was the last “hard” puzzle before everyone was able to just Google it if they got stuck
It didn’t stick out as hard to me, but when I went to school everyone was bitching about it. I ended up having people bring me their games so I could beat Water Temple for them so they could keep playing.
I don’t think it’s difficult, but I do think it’s tedious because you have to go back and forth through the same area multiple times. Progressing through it feels more like a chore than an adventure.
I enjoy the convenience of digital games. I don’t like having to figure out which case my kids put a game in because they sure as shit don’t put them back in the right one.
