LOL

Why does Steam insist on doing free weekends with games that take a huge chunk out of bandwidth/storage and will probably be expired by the time they're finished downloading? High-speed internet isn't available to everyone.

Then you dont get to participate. I wish companies remembered what compression was but they are not responsible for how your life ended up.

Steam doesn't. The publisher does. Warner bros wants to get as much exposure to shadow of mordor before they release shadow of war

I'm pretty sure the repack I downloaded years ago was 30 gigs at most.

why's your download so big?
>>
>>383215082
>short
I have like 20 hours on it and I'm at 75% or so, and didn't even touch the DLCs yet.
The main story is short but the real meat of the game is in all the side shit, people who rush the main story then drop the game are retarded.

i just checked for myself. 80 gig download. I dont own it.

My friends keep telling me to play this but I dont want to tell them it just looks like another shitty movie game.

I live just outside NYC and I have no high speed available. Fiber just doesn''t lay itself. A lot of neighborhoods only have copper, I have the fastest DSL available.

This game is unplayable.
Go from 1440p max settings 140fps to pre-rendered 1080p 30fps aids constantly.

They don't give a shit about third world losers. That game would take me maybe 2 hours to download and I'm sure it's the case for many players.

You know this is pretty much every rural area in America. My parents had 100 down fiber, moved 20 min away to a more rural area and all thats available is satellite internet.

I bought this game when it came out. Wasn't it like 20 GB then?
>>
I just started dling the game because this thread and it said it was 80gb for me too but after it starts downloading it's just 42gb.

>>383214809
>High-speed internet isn't available to everyone.
And those who DO have it available, take advantage of the free weekend. What's the problem?
>>
>>383218981
it is painful to see how far this chick has fallen off
