Storage 95+ gb?
Is this game worth keeping or patching to take up so much space on a drive?

An ageing 3rd person movement 'inhibited' game I played for 100 minutes only years ago quickly losing interest in then and now patched to double it's size! Looks like a revisit to cash in on the television series from the old production team if I'm reading it right.

I'm considering to uninstall it and so provide space on the particular SSD for the upcoming "Hogwarts Legacy" which has a far more interesting appeal both in graphic and entertainment even tho it is also a 3rd person title.

I enjoyed the beginning of the series on television with the hero's grunting speech and staggered script but I don't think I can even get through a production that wants to 'sword and sandals' the public after the success of other similar series having already done so.

Reading comments on this forum concerning 'the patch' which is almost the same size as the original title itself doesn't inspire positive feedback for this ageing lacklustre title.

If you have such a negative view of the game just uninstall it.

The game stays at 56.4GB after the update which is a whole new version of the game separate from the old, so you're basically downloading the new version of the game while the older version gets deleted. You can revert back to the old version as well.

First, what are you talking about, 90 Gb? It's 57 fully up to date. The patch completely replaces the old files, not add to them.

Second, why would you keep a game (that you think is lackluster: spoiler you're in the minority) installed when you can't be bothered to put even 2 hours into it. Years ago, at that.

Thanks for explaining the patch and game size version etc. The original query of my topic has been answered. I will still uninstall the title based on the comments of this forum tho and the questionable reliability of the patch and version update and I was curious in hoping for an improvement over the original version. thanks again.
