      For modern PCs most don’t have optical drives anymore and it’d have to be USB sticks and there’s no guarantee if It would outlast an optical disk. Kind of a tough situation for archival purposes.

      And to be fair, there are so many games on steam or GOG that I want to play, we can wait until they are on sale. Usually for a fraction of the original price.
