Why the fuck are modern games 100+ gb

Bigger filesize= better game

My download speed is about 2mb per second so really a packed torrent is actually faster in many cases because the d/l is half the size. If my option is 10 hours from steam or 6 hours from torrent with 1 hour repack I know which I'll take.

thanks for the bitcoins my dude

Enjoy your virus

It has multiple reasons
>photo realistic graphics take shit ton of space because you have a model of every fucking hair
>devs can't or don't know how to compromise shit anymore
>devs artificially bloat games so you have less space for other games

I remember back in the 360 and ps3 gen if a game had a small file size/v/ would shitpost it to oblivion. Now we have this.

How have you wasted over 10 years of your life here and still haven't realised that Any Forums isn't one person?

Graphics doesn't take space, its mostly uncompressed sound

I mean the vast majority of Any Forums you fucking retard. As does everyone else when they refer to "Any Forums".

isn't the point of repacks to minimize the size of the game?
you might need 2x the disk space while unpacking but your download size and your game installation will both be smaller than a legitimate copy

i am just smart haha

Do people really download and install these things, or is it just shitposting?
I don't see any reason whatsoever to spend an entire day trashing your CPU to avoid downloading a few extra gbs of data.

>big textures don't take space

Hes right tho. I remember skyrim, skyward sword and just cause 3 being shitposted to hell because they all had small file sizes.

1. No limits leads to worse code
2. Huge filesizes take up space and reduce the number of other games you can play. Before, you cold be playing dozens of games in pc. Now people only play 1 or 2 games as a "main" game.

Not that much. Only if game have a lot of dlc shit.

Meant for

unpacking takes like 30 minutes at the absolute most

Why the fuck would you download repacks in current year. Just download playable steam rips that dont require installing. Its gonna take 2x less space and they are that much bigger in size.

Because we didn't gatekeep the women, niggers, and trannies

Fitgirl seeds his torrents and I'm not on any private tracker

A high cost tradeoff between (1) quality and creativity arising as a result of restrictions and (2) high disk space used by uncreative zilches and low barrier to entry

Because it doesn't it's actually always the paid product that is bigger.
So I'm less likely not to pirate because of size since it's not that much of a problem.
And il avoid anything 150+ gb and you have 0 chance to sell me something

I think it's common sense by now to not use repacks for huge games, otherwise you're gonna be stuck for 24 hours like a retard

>>devs artificially bloat games so you have less space for other games
Bold of them to think that I'd ever uninstall 10 games just to install their shitty game in their place.

Yeah repacks this huge are a waste of time unless you live on a shit hole with 2 mbps
