You know how games use to come on a dvd or a big brick called a cartridge... Can i do something like that but in modern day. I have a bunch of blank dvd and cds collecting dust and linux os's but could i put game son them on installers and give them some cool art? Is there a better way to do this? This would also be for personal use cases.

Im just not sure how well save files would be handled, or if this is worth doing.

Wait some years until the game is fully updated and with all DLC released. Then download a pirate copy of it and burn it into any optical media (CD, DVD or Blu-ray). Boom, you got it until forever. Truly yours.
