Why remaster a game from 6 GB game to 120GB?

[Zera of Palestein]

Are compression and optimization lost technology now?

[Budnick]

you do realize better textures and models and audio take up more storage right?

4k textures dont grow on trees. also oblivion is like 20 years old xd

I swear steam forums are just all trolls.

I think its actually a byproduct of Nanite 3d models, they are very complexed and nanite scales the detail down like how LOD's work.

you realize there's no need to download all localization files of languages that we don't use?
also they could make the 4K textures a separate optional download like how many games do then

Yes. Now turn on DLSS, set the native resolution to half, and turn on frame gen so you can get 60fps on your $1000 gcard.

Im getting 50-100 on a 300$ card while turning off FSR and resolution @90 +high skill issue

Then again most of you buy prebuilt junk

Poly count, texture resolution, shaders, effects, etc. That's why.

Wow good job getting a 20 year old game redone in a garbage engine to run almost acceptable! Congrats! Everyone give him a round of applause!

120GB games are necessary so you can see accurate lighting, precise shading, and each hair upon a flea's nutsack. Cause that's what makes games great, kids.

The 4k texture mod for the original is like 80 gb? That plus character textures and everything else probably adds up to more than this.

Question: why aren't 4k textures an optional download? What use are they if we don't have a matching monitor?
