In some places it’s still just straight up cheaper to buy something physical due to sales and competition. Plus if it’s the same price both physical and digital, I’d rather buy the thing that actually gives me something I can actually touch.
Plus with things like game pass and ps+ it’s harder to swallow digital purchases when they are likely to eventually be wholesale replaced by a “free” version, without any compensation to me for having bought the game earlier. I don’t need to buy a game day one so I can wait. And when I eventually buy a game it’s likely way cheaper physically by standard but if there’s a big sale on digital then I don’t mind. You won’t find me buying anything over £25 digitally unless it’s significantly reduced from whatever the full price is.
