I mean, maybe disk drives are outdated, but being unable to buy used games or give your old game to a friend is garbage (but great for profits of the console manufacturers and game studios). Not to mention that as long as it's a digital download, you don't own the game - you lease it at a flat rate.

Limiting the options and ownership rights of the consumer for profit is bad.

That's why NFT's were created, but now that people link NFT's to dumb ass pictures, I wonder how if ever it'll make it as proof of ownership.
