I was very confused by all this (also I don't use consoles unless you want to consider the Deck as one) until it dawned on me that what people are apparently now calling "disk drives" are apparently "optical disk drives/readers".
Aren't games dematerialised on consoles nowadays? Or is it strictly a PC thing?
