How are games larger than 20 GB even legal?

I like textures that don't look like a blurry mess.

I'm inviting you to my 3rd world shit hole country. It will likely download in 15 hours at best
I'm the one who need to complain about it
>>
>>387619987
It's the other way around you nignog. You think the mechanics of how a video game works takes up that much space? It doesn't.

What takes up all that space is textures and voice files, not the gameplay - aka the thing that makes video games video games.
>>
>>387620734
And I'm not complaining about large filesize because of download speed. Just because shit takes up too much space in hard disk. You look like a whiny faggot op

>>387620734
Third world?

Shit, it took me 2 weeks to download Titanfall 2 on ps4 and another week for a 15gb update.

Least my pc could do it in a few hours.

At least it's faster than Kazaa and less likely to be CP.

>>387619987
Novels are words
Games are gameplay
Popup books represent needless frills to entertain children on top of the words
Isn't that what graphics and story and voice acting are?

>>
>>387623060
>discourage pirates
In what way? Both sides are going to spend a long time downloading the game.
>>
>>387623326
More annoying to seed
And there's pirates who just go "meh I want a new game to play, let's see what there is" and those guys might not want to download 60GB if they're on a slower connection
>>
>>387623462
what about repacks
>>
>>387619987
Actually, the best metric for determining if a game is good or not is the file size.
Usually the best games are 10 gigs or so because they actually correctly optimized it and it still has lots of content and good graphics despite this.
Basically, when a game is huge they're just being corporate assholes.

>>
>>387623060
this doesnt work because they do repacks that cut down on bloat
>>
>>387619680
It takes less than an hour to download 50GB anon, and I'm in Bong land where the internet is shit.
>>
Remember when people said Max Payne 3 was shit for being 35GB?
>>
>>387622732
Wasn't Conker's bad fur day almost a gig in size due to the voice lines?
>>
>>387623751
Not to mention you need twice the free space. Want to download a 60gb game? You need 100gb: 40 for the compressed files then 60gb to unpack it to.
>>
>>387619680
>4 hours

quit your fucking crying. GTA V took me a week to install on my old 200kb/s speeds, and the download got corrupted once or twice, so had to restart
>>
>>387623884
No.
I'm talking about exclusively modern games (most are complete garbage).
I actually meant 15 gigs is the ceiling for the most part. I mean, space engineers is 15 gig how do you even need more space when that game isn't even that optimized.

All of my favorite games are actually 5 gigs or smaller.

If the story can't be told in ten lines it's not worth hearing.

That's a ridiculous way of judging quality of anything
Already you're compressing important details, what's stopping you from describing every single story in the world as

>>387619680
Git gud internet fag.
It only takes an hour to download 50gigs. And I live in a non-major U.S. city.

No but I remember the Force Unleashed II port being shat on for it

At least it lets you download the base game offline

Being poor should be illegal.

Because it's your decision to buy and own it.

>Implying you still wont need a 20 gb

Not really no. Whwre do you guys get your hyperbole from? Im sure some do indeed, but fuck if i have played em.
>>
>>387623179
What else would you really use it for? Hard drives are super cheap right now, 2TB is under $100 so unless you have 20+ games installed and they are all huge there really shouldn't be an issue.
>>
>>387619680
The industry is retarded enough to think that this is a countermeasure for piracy. Their logic is the more inconvenient they make it for you to download and keep multiple games on your hard drive, the less likely you are to be pirating them.
