I like physical media sitting on my shelf too. But it is useless to me if theres no game inside the disk.I don't know, but having the 'boxed' option makes people who love to have their covers showcased on a shelf/library (I'm one of those people, for example) happy.
I mean, I often happily pay the extra 2/3€ to buy my games boxed, even when I know they would activate just fine on Steam/Origin (often I just downloaded them from there without even touching the enclosed DVD) because, you know, seeing all of them lined up on the shelf makes me happy.
Of course if it costs 50€ in the store and 20€ on Steam I go for the digital copy, but when the difference in price is, say, below 5€... For me it's still boxed.
In this case (as the download is pretty large) I was really hoping to have install media in the box (because yes, I already pre-ordered the 'boxed' version of PES 2018).
I backup my digital games in blank DVDs and download a coverart, print t and keep it on my shelf.
If I just want a empty box, I can just download and peint the cover art. But yeah, if theres no high res legit cover available on internet, then its a problem.
