Multi dvd? Those are from 2007 and later, iirc. Multiple cds were common by 2000 already, tho

And before that, there were games that spanned multiple floppies. Plus, floppies were less reliable, so there was a higher chance one of the disks would fail to read, leading to the Retry, Fail, Abort menu. They were only 1.44MB so a 50GB game would take like 40k floppies.

Windows 98 came on 28 floppy disks.. We definitely felt the pain prior to 2007...
