  • Depends on the system’s media for me.

    Cartridge-based? Physical for all 1st and 2nd party titles, digital for indie/3rd party unless I really enjoyed it or it had a worthwhile collectors edition. I’d say about an 80-20 split due to some games not releasing physical, and some that do but I also get digital for convenience.

    Disc based? Probably just digital these days. Exceptions for worthwhile collectors editions and special runs (indie games etc.) Roughly 10-90 split because PC/steam is in this list and despite owning a launch day disc model PS5, I just ordered my first physical copy of a game (Baulder’s Gate 3 collectors) and the other collectors edition I bought was God of War Ragnarok which came with everything except a game disc (steel game case, digital code… sigh).









  • And not to mention the discharge efficiency curve. For LiPo batteries you will see a sort of “coasting” when the battery is at about 3.7v if your load is sufficiently small. But when it’s at 4.0v it will seem to drain quicker.

    I have a 10000mAh battery powering a device that uses 10uA every 30 minutes for about 10 seconds. On one charge it should last about 1 year maybe a little more. The first 2 months it seemed like it lost a lot more juice than was expected but since then it settled in and is now ahead of its estimate. Which means it will speed back up as it goes down below 3.7v.
