Uhhh... why does it say there's a 70 gigabyte update downloading?
That's ridiculous. It can't really be that big, right? RIGHT!?

Jesus...
And is that on top of the base game?
It's not extra space.
It's just not compressed so you essentially redownload most of the game.
It's a lazy move on the Devs part for not compressing the patch.

The data just gets rearranged and the new content gets added.
The game size doesn't change that much.

Looks like some DLC dropped or something, and they've forced it on us. Same update needed here. And now my game doesn't launch at all. Some "entry point not found" popup error. Whatever. Happy 30th Rebellion :steamfacepalm:

Ahhh... okay, that's better than 70 more gigabytes of data clogging up my hard drive. Still, it's annoying that I'll have to wait so long to play the game again.

Steam downloaded the update earlier today, which was over 70 GB, and now it's downloading another huge 'update' AGAIN. :winter2019happysnowman:
