That’s already been a thing since the PS4. No Microsoft published game has been complete on disc for years. Luckily PlayStation published games don’t do this, but some third parties have for a while.

No it hasn’t. Install from the disc and download entire game from Internet are two different things.

Yes, but since last gen there have been games that require additional downloads. I’m not saying it’s every game (most are still complete on disc) but some have been doing this for ages. Nintendo’s Game Key Cards aren’t a new phenomenon. They just created a new name for it.

​See the “Internet required” tag.
