Well at this point physical games might as well be just CD, with single text file containing key. As most of them need day one updates from internet anyway.

Difference here is that Game Pass ir a subscription service, while Steam (atleast looks like) regular store, where you outright buy and own* the game.

Because of this, on PC physical media games are dead. Don't know if digital stores on console offer to buy game and not pay any subscription.

I wish people would stop spreading this false information.

Over 80% of current gen games are all on the disc, according to the group currently preserving video games. That means no day 1 patch.

All of Sony's exclusives are on the disc. They obviously have after patches but there are perfectly playable versions on the disc.
