That's around 5-6 hours download time for 40gb, just leave it running while you do something else or while you sleep. You can pause and resume whenever you like. Literal non-issue.

You can't use your pc while it's downloading in the background? Computers have been able to multitask since the '60s I think. What kind of ancient machine are you on?

The Steam app iyself keeps my PC busy. dont know why. CPU cool at 15%. HDD not that busy too. no clue. No, its not an XT.

anyway, not worth it, without even a demo.

Sad to Hear that.
Unfortunately this is going to heavily Limit You in the Future.

Because even right now the Average Download Size of Games on Steam sits around 90 Gigabytes with some Games going as Big as 150-250 Gigabytes.
GFL2 with its 40 Gigabytes is actually on the Smaller Side.

No Offense. But this Suggests that either your Computer is very Low Spec. Or your Internet Connection is extremely Low Speed.
You saying You got an HDD also Suggests that You are still using well. An HDD instead of SSD.
Which means that if your Computer is Downloading and Writing onto the HDD it will heavily affect everything else going on from that Harddisk.
Worst case You only got this HDD and its also already Running your Windows etc.


As for the Demo.
Uhm Mate. The Game is Free to Play.
A Demo makes no Sense because its an Online Game.
You can Try out the Whole Game for Free. So a Demo makes no Sense.




Either Way Mate.
It might be Time to Consider Upgrading your Systems.
Because GFL2 as said above. Is actually Half the Average Game Size nowdays.
If 40 Gigabytes is already Kicking You out.
You wont be able to really Play most New Games anymore as most of these are around the 100 Gigabytes Range.

Wrong. Bye.

Just telling You the Facts Mate.
Denying Reality wont change it :)

But well.
Thats your Problem I suppose.
Good Luck on your Ventures.

Brother, if your machine can't even handle downloading something from steam, playing games on it should be the least of your problems. What are you doing here?

While a pc can multitask, my internet so slow when i download stuff i can't even watch youtube or do anything that requires internet.

No i am not defending OP, i am just defending slow internet speed because i got that
