>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

It's the same size on PS4

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

but I don't see it outside possibility

compressed=longer load times OR time after download to decompress files

and most people would rather play asap
