The disc also acts as a DRM check and allows you to download the full game from there. No disc means no resell. You can’t get a pre-owned copy. You can’t lend it to a friend. If you lose access to your console account, you lose the game. Fork over another $100 to continue playing.

I didn’t expect that you would be able to reuse games these days anyway. That surprises me that you can still do that. Thanks for explaining what the actual problem with this is.

A few games, like certain Battlefields, have tried making it so you can resell the disc for single player content but won’t be allowed to access multiplayer content
People didnt like that, so I think they stopped doing that for recent Battlefields… not 100% sure
