It is because of discs, actually. Every single extra dollar it costs to manufacture them is like 5% of the revenue from the sale of the game that the publisher loses out on. That’s huge.
It’s significantly more expensive than simply having the rest be downloaded via an update.
With developers going under left right and centre, putting an even higher cost on their production is a death sentence.
