So I've been browsing the ME:A preorders, and I can't seem to find a PC version that's not a digital download! WTF?!
The Deluxe editions of the game (with the diecast and remote controlled car) come with a steelbook case, but no game, and there is no disc for the PC version at all!

We don't know if there'll be a PC version of the Deluxe editions. There is a PC version of the standard edition, at least, on Gamestop sites: www.gamestop.dk/PC/Games/44913/mass-effect-andromeda although it says PC download on the cover so yeah, it seems like even if there is a disc, the majority of the game is downloaded. Great...

I saw that, but it clearly says "digital download".
This is stupid. Even DA:I came with 4 discs in addition to the digital download.

Oh goody! I don't mind, as they usually have an "upgrade to deluxe" option in Origin. |

I wonder if I can buy the PC version of the standard edition from Gamestop and have it upgraded to the Deluxe edition on Origin. That way, I could get a "physical" copy and with the cover I like to boot. Does anyone know if that has been possible with other games? |

The PC copies usually come with an activation code (what once were cd-keys). That code is usually just a serial for the game, so once it's activated in your account, you can download the game forever after without the discs at all.
It's just like buying a digital copy.

They probably think that every PC user in the world must also have a high speed internet connection.
Someone should tell them that, sadly, it's not like that.
