feels like the game got too big for its own good. ever since the microtransactions. we need a new payday 3

It wasn't microtransactions that bloated the game size.

a full redownload of UE included client clocked in at 20.4 GB for day 4 of crimefest. The Alaska Heist added another 0.3 GB to that, I think.

im not talking about that, i know it was all the dlcs that made it big, im saying it got too crazy and full of itself with that microtransaction crap. it keeps getting wilder and wilder. i remember it used to be a serious game in 2013.

Well the thing is... The original game director quit in mid 2014 and the game has changed direction since then.

Textures, music, dialogue, etc. it's all adding up. Modern games in general have become huge to download or need to be on multiple DVDs if they are still physical media. GTA V is huge too. I guess we've got to the point where the size of the software is catching up to the size of storage once again.

I'd rather have all the content in Payday 2 than not. The sheer variety is what keeps it fun for so long. Dozens of maps instead of the same handful.

5mb/s download speed is not bad... thats like a 2-4 hour wait. I just don't understand wanting a game to have less content to reduce its file size because you have a potato wifi usb that overheats. How do you even get that mindset?
