Star Wars Outlawsis right around the corner, and the gaming community is beyond excited to step into the criminal underworld of a galaxy far, far away. The game developers boasted a massive open world featuring different planets and biomes, which could explain the equally massive install size for modern consoles.

The gaming community is baffled by modern games with a massive open-world map. It is understandable for a game to download upon inserting the disc followed by a day one patch; however, being unable to play a fully paid game without the internet is a massive eyesore for players.

The Physical Disc of Star Wars Outlaws Is Practically Useless Without an Internet Connection

Massive Entertainmentis on the home stretch to get this project up on store shelves for the gaming community to grab; however, physical media enthusiasts will not be pleased with what they might see on the screen. The game is expected to be massive, featuring detailed worlds filled with diverse activities that tie intothe trophies and achievements ofStar Wars Outlaws.

The game will be released in less than a week, and some players were fortunate to grab an early copy days before the release date. Unfortunately, after hours of waiting for the game to update, it is practically unplayable without an internet connection despite having the physical disc on hand, which is not ideal for those unwilling to transition to the digital age of gaming.

Wanna enjoy#StarWarsOutlawsoffline on PS5? This is what you are greeted with when booting the game after an offline installation, according to a report from a community member.44,86 GB on disc. 8 GB patch available. 49,24 GB after that.pic.twitter.com/dQTCLM5eTZ

Some fans contemplated thatthe lacklustre combat and animationswere not worth the gigabytes of storage. Perhaps the game will heavily rely on the day one patch to get it up and running in a playable state, which can be a hassle for those who pre-ordered the physical disc and are expecting a smooth launch after a few hours of downloading.

Honestly why even bother with Physical releases if it’s gonna be like this?? Might as well start providing a Game Code 🤡. Buncha clowns are making fool of people by doing this…. Seriously, people should really protest against this. Let’s all start a petition.

The gaming community has high hopes forStar Wars Outlaws,and it would have been nice if players could play the game regardless of whether their PlayStation 5 is connected to the internet. Perhaps the publisher intends to convince players to abandon physical media and transition to the digital age, where everything is much more convenient and faster.

“Almost on day one it was decided…”: Star Wars Outlaws Devs Were Certain on 1 Aspect Before Any Other, and It Never Changed

It is time for the community to take a stand against this tomfoolery. Ubisoft might as well pack the physical case with an install code instead of a disc if this is what the future of gaming will be like.

Ubisoft Is Not Doing a Great Job Selling Physical Copies of Star Wars Outlaws

Ubisoft has a lot of pressure riding on this originalStar Warsproject; however, the developers managed to sneak in a game mechanic inspired by earlyAssassin’s Creedgames that would make it extra challenging for players to cause mischief.Pickpocketing could be a tall orderthat requires all that storage space.

Physical media should be able to run a game without any drawbacks. The modern age is taking away years of tradition.

“Think the police in GTA”: Star Wars Outlaws Shouldn’t be the Last to Take a GTA 6 Feature, When Far Cry 7 Would be a Better Fit

Perhaps it is time for players to let their voices be heard and for the game industry to notice. It is ironic to see how advanced technology sent players back to the stone age of gaming.

Players used to pop in a disc and play with no issue. Hopefully, it is not too late to go back.
