I miss it. but we can't expect a 300gb game to fit in physical media without adding 50$ to the cost.

According to Wikipedia Ultra HD Blu-ray’s can hold 100 GB. 2 install disks and 1 play disk doesn’t seem like it would add $50 to the cost.

Just nitpicking, but it'd have to be 3 install disks if there's 300 gb of game data. You don't read game data from the disk on runtime, it's wayyyy too slow. It's only used for validation that you do indeed own the disk.

Right the 'play' disk is just where the license happens to be. You also install the data on the play disk.
