I wonder if it’s just an optimization problem, assets like movies and textures are not being compressed properly. Fighting games like Tekken have no business being 80gb…
Wholeheartedly disagree. HDD prices keep going down, you just have this idea stuck in your head that “100GB is huge” when really that is 1.50€ assuming you store the game indefinetly
Yeah but an HDD happens to be rather slow to load these games. Specially with the bigger ones, obviously. So then you need SSD, which aren’t that cheap nor big.
I’d like to add that game graphics are not as important as file size.
Games that are 100+gb file size are just on my shit list, I don’t care how good they are.

It could also happen because all localised audio is bundled together instead of being available as an optional download.

You can get 1tb ssd for around 50€
I just took a look, and I can get a 30TB external SSD in multiple colors for $84.90 with free shipping…
Gonna have to squeeze one into next year’s budget…
While your point is correct, that is likely fake storage.
where are you seeing this product?

That’s probably a scam
No, really. File sizes are always gonna go up. You’re missing out on some great games if you keep doing that. Just an advice.
