I tend to prefer actual discs, but yeah the sentiment is there.
I have in the past bought the basic game and then bought the GOTY

Then again, these days who actually releases a bug-free game?

Near as I can tell, almost no-one is even trying anymore since the
consumers are happy to pre-order and release day purchase their games
even KNOWING they'll be buggy as fuck.

The "modern gamer" doesn't seem to have any patience, but I suppose that
makes sense in this age of ADHD gamers.
