13 gigabytes?

[Ben]

Hrmm this seems odd, the original .rom was about 500mb...

Its the music and the higher rez backgrounds, the game contains both remastered music and the old music

I knew they remastered the music and did higher resolution backgrounds, I was just kind of surprised it was so much data. Seems odd.

The original also did not have to work within windows and didn’t have to contain all the proper driver and direct X support that eats up more.

Also the ps1 version uses a compression system .. this doesn’t n

Does seem a bit bloated considering switch version is only 5 gb.

Its not the backgrounds or music, the game has DRM, without it the game is only 300mb.

LOL. Was about to write the same thing. (game size without Denuvo = ca.1 - 2 GB. With Denuvo = 13GB )

[stempuerto]

denuvo is bad

The game takes up 9.53 GB once it's done installing.

[liberodark]

This game have denuvo yes.

Denuvo protects a small part of the game executable if it makes much of a difference it is in megabytes not gigabytes.

They use higher resolution media of course it's going to be bigger than the original.

[Raptor Jesus]

Denuvo alone makes the EXE larger than the original ISO.

you know you can just go to the local game files and see what is actually so big?

movies are about 1.5 GB
images in the system file are like 0.7 GB
music is about 2.8 GB
Hdmapimg is 3.6 GB

so it's like 8.6 GB for music, movies, and various images.

the entire folder is like 9.6 GB
so you have about 1 GB of various files.

This.

I mean, yeah, denuvo definitely sucks and should be done away with. But the amount of people who blame every problem on DRM without even understanding it is just ludicrous.

12GB DRM? Please...
