Why do I prefer digital games over physical? And are there any games I've kept playing, despite not loving the combat, just because the story was so good? This week, someone asks if I have any regrets about taking RTG and turning it from a hobby into a business.

Admittedly, I've never played one before, and even in this case, I bought a modern port of one of its games.
