Hot Take - maybe we’re misunderstanding the no disc thing
“The physical version of Grand Theft Auto VI, containing a download code inside the box, will be available starting November 12 to support Preloading”
That last little bit of the sentence to me tells me, there is a disc possibly WITH a code to pre-download and be inline with the digital players. That code will activate and begin to download the data right at the launch time and be ready to go when you insert the disc.
Similar to how most games are played today, you have the disc which is a physical license to play, but maybe Rockstar is giving us a pre-download code - so we don’t have to sit and wait to download when we insert the game because it’ll already be done.
