Nowadays, for the most part you're not even buying a game. You're buying permission to play it, as long as it's available. You can't even lend it to a friend. It's not yours. It will go away.

It was some of this frustration that lead me to want to publish a physical boardgame. All the videogames that I had worked on so far had only been sold digitally and I wanted to make something tangible for once. Something I could hold in my hands, and keep.

That's not a fullproof solution either. The games went out of print within a couple of years so now you can't find them in stores. But at least there are still copies around, and since the rights have reverted back to me, I can try to find another publisher.
