Players who like physical discs may be a little disappointed with the physical version of Doom: Dark Ages.It is reported that installing Doom: Dark Ages will require internet connection.
As this game will be released next week, some early physical versions have already sneaked out.Now, news is flying all over the X platform and other websites, and many players have revealed that id Software and Bethesda's physical discs do not have the complete game at all.The CD data of the PS5 version is only a pitiful 85MB.
This means that even players who have bought the physical version must have the complete game.The PS5 packaging box also clearly states: You need to connect to the Internet when playing games.
Although many people think that the Internet requirements may only be required at the first launch, Bethesda and id Software have not given a clear statement on this yet.
The situation on the Xbox version is probably similar, and the disc only contains 324MB of data.In other words, both versions of physical versions are not very satisfactory.
On the one hand, this approach can help Bethesda prevent the game from leaking before it is officially released; but on the other hand, for players with slow Internet speed, buying a physical version is no different from a digital version, and there is no advantage at all.
