    I’m happy to agree with you there but I’d add the extra stipulation to you simple yes/no

    If I get home from purchasing the physical edition of the game and my internet has happened to go off, can I still play it?

    Yes: I own it.

    No: I’ve been sold an almost useless key.

      There’s a handful of games I’ve seen like that. The Spyro Remastered Trilogy for example contained just the first game. The rest had to be downloaded.

      And while my Cyberpunk disc contains a full hand as far as I can tell, the expansion is just a code and has to be downloaded.

        For Cyberpunk, I can say the disc for the PC version was the soundtrack. The game still had to be redeemed on GoG and downloaded in its entirety. A silverlining that I at least got something in the box but certainly a weird side-step.

        I was also aware of what was really on the disc prior to release otherwise I’d’ve called it a con. I can’t remember how I knew about that though.
