The original Baldur’s Gate was 5 cds and an additional cd for Tales from the Sword Coast. With all the open world travel that meant a lot of disc switching.

The most obnoxious bit about all that was that you had 6 cds to potentially scratch that might prevent you from playing the whole game.

Cartridges and online updates for PC games literally are from two different time periods. The entire premise is false.

A long time ago? Honey, updates weren’t even a thing until like 20ish years ago. They definitely weren’t a thing at the same time that cartridges were common.

How is this hacker news? Bad bot.
