ACT 1 installation size 100GB

[Screamingiraffe]

Besides being a huge install, that's quite a bit of development data

[guard65]

it is all textures (85GB) so what, final size 120GB or less.

I don’t understand people that are concerned with game size considering how cheap disk space is these days. Even my laptop has 7 TB of space and my desktop 15 TB.

The game is gorgeous with lots of high-quality voice acting. It takes drive space to make a top flight game. Just say thank you, Larian.

@guard65 & @Metallicus: When your system is purely NVMe storage, space comes at a premium. The post was coming from amazement that the devs have put in so much content to take up over 100GB for just the first act

As Screaminggiraffe said, while HDD space is relatively cheap, SSD space is not. Getting even 1TB is going to set you back around $100, if $100 is cheap(Especially these days with growing costs of everything), I'll gladly take an donation so I can get myself one :).

and thats not a canadian price as middle men and shipping double that price for a decent one...its crazy and then if you need more ram well here we go ....

odd aint it that buying a pc with a 3080 in it is like only 100 less then the cheapest place to buy the graphic card by itself isnt it....

Just an FYI, the store page shows minimum free disk space requirement of 150 GB.

Why is it odd that a prebuilt (made many months ago) using equipment bought well before that wouldn't have all of the price hikes from lack of supply added in after the fact? Makes sense to me the the prebuilts might be the most dollar efficient way to go. The components were cheaper when they were bought.
