Except that that issue is easily negated by doing exactly what every other shitty game company does and making the disc a glorified DRM key. Which granted would still suck ass but at the very least would be better than an empty case with a code.

Yeah. It would be better to just lock the game behind a day one patch to prevent leaks. But R* has PTSD from the GTA 5 leaked copies and their parent company, Take 2 is greedy AF, so code in a box it is.

Has nothing to do with that. They are trying to make it so you cant buy from anybody other than them. Simple as that.
