[Fluffal Kyurem]

79.1 GB for Destiny 2.
18.7 GB for DB Xenoverse 2.

good graphics, open world and free content (so more gb indeed)

[Rtj007]

Man of Medan needs 65 gb, Heavy Rain 30gb, Beyond Two souls need 50gb, Gears of war 4 130 gb, gears 5 59 plus gb, Hitman 2 with both seasons 100 plus gb list goes on mate compared to that this is a joke for me ie 79-120gb, Tekken 7 needs 50 plus gb so does Injustice 2. there are many other games that need 50-100 plus gb.
all yakuza games on pc is around 15-25 gb, greedfall, sinking city around 20gb.

Most of my games aren't even over 10 GB, h***, half of them are under 5 GB.

[Fluffal Kyurem]

Just noticed that I have Doom 2016 and it's 68.6 GB.

Because it has a bunch of activities.

It's like asking why a watermelon is bigger than an apple.

Because you play sh*tty games? Joking, but do you play only indie games? It's standard for AAA games for years now.

I'm serious. Is it because they're older games? Jump Force, DB Xenoverse 1+2, Crash N'sane, Doom 2016, and DB FighterZ are relatively recent games. Borderlands 2+Pre are AAA looter shooters like Destiny 2.

[Fidller™]

27 games installed, 1.3TB

All games these days are 50-100GB (50-70 for normal games with DLC, 70-100 for giant openworld games like ES:O)

[Z3N GAMING]

the answer is that a game with more graphics and more elements = more gb

[dozensnake]

well they said when new version will be released game size will be 165gb so prepare urself

Game size is largely determined by texture resolution, and audio quality. Games are shipping 4k ready with 1000's of high-resolution textures, and scripts with 100,000+ lines of dialogue, translated into a dozen languages, plus hundreds of minutes of studio-quality music recordings, and you're wondering why they're big?

Games made even a few years ago weren't as big because we weren't in the era of 4K, and games are more global now.

Simple as that. Most MMO's are smaller because they're older. Games like BDO are just as massive.
