After a long experience with both... And post some serious thinking. I say physical. Nobody can give me a better version of Vampire Bloodlines, for instance! GOG version comes with unofficial patch incorporated and steam lacks the stylish installer, plus is client bound. Or the GTA TRILOGY, that Rockstar forcibly removed and retroactively cut content, ripping off all the gamers who spent money on their product to buy it whole, because "copyrights"! And now that i think about it, even Titan Quest + Immortal Throne is better, since nerfing + balancing destroyed lots of items that were OP (mostly monster infrequents), plus all legendaries are watered down to dust now.
Besides, even gog takes back things. At least they do not remove entire soundtrack parts like Rockstar, but still, that one Witcher 3 song, which was very good i might add, was felt.
Digital stuff and loose agreements, do provide the initiative and the "rights", to the other party rip you off. Sorry i don't trust anybody anymore. Only what i grab with my hands and stash away. And i trust Microsoft even less, i still operate win7. For which, "good old gaming" cut off compatibility, while big bad steam is still fully operational and supported on them.
