Sony lawyers are stupid enough to argue about nonsense. Nobody was even thinking of owning GTA 6 because they purchased a copy or license to use it. Do I really have to explain a lawyer, that owning a license would mean that Sony has no rights to take the license away after you purchased it? We are arguing over owning the license to play the game, not the franchise. Also look at GOG, where you can even own the stuff you download, in the sense that you are in control of it.

Does anyone remember NFTs? Right, this scam thing with the apes. But honestly, just like any other technology NFTs could have solved the ownership of a specific license to a game problem. Because it guarantees and proofs that you own the license, independent from any launcher or company, almost like a disc or cartridge. So from technology wise it could be solved if they wanted to. But they don’t.
