>Rockstar >king of the shitty ports
<:thonk:288060975775612929>
is this their shitty attempt to deter pirates??
cause all it does it fuck things up for normal customers
pirates always win
>deter pirates
>implying pirates wont ultra compress it in a 50 pack rar set
No nigga, it's just a huge game with a huge amount of textures, voice acting, and sounds
and no compresison
cause they are lazy assholes
also be GLAD there is no compression
They literally worked their employees to the bone with this game
sure its lazy
but your getting the highest quality textures
not compressed down fake 4k
there is something known as lossless compression you nibbas
<:thonk:288060975775612929>
how do you know its not losslessly compressed
Yeah, and it's not magic, you Mongolian pigman
I never said that
you fat pig
weak bants
If the data is complex, it's harder to compress
It's not just a flat 50% compression on everything, that's not the way it works
yes yes we all know
how compression works
no need to be expository

Huh. Firefox changed its logo.
I've heard the reasoning for blowing up game sizes from a (((sales))) perspective is it makes customers more likely to delete other games to play your game
oh whoops btw you only have room for this game? Maybe you'll buy the content and play more c:
Seems pretty farfretched, since on PC having TB of storage is standard now, and even consoles have at least 1 TB
Base models were 500gb, and 1TB with years of updates doesn't last long with game pass and ps+
Ehhh. I dunno.
yeah I'm not gonna go full conspiratard about it myself
