why only 15 gb

[丂卩ㄖㄖ几ㄚ 丂卂ㄩㄥ]

game is short or something ??

[sTINkybEEfer]

yes im sure it is short. its only "long" because its a sand box open world turd sandwich rehash of the last two games.

[yusupov]

maybe they actualyl bothered to optimize texture sizes or at least compress them for the DL...

[丂卩ㄖㄖ几ㄚ 丂卂ㄩㄥ]

Maybe because they had low quality audio 10,000 years ago that took up less disk space.

maybe because we are not talking about ♥♥♥♥♥ and size don't really matter in games?

Well actually they are probably using procedural generation techniques for the vegetation allowing a well optimized experience that gives it ability to give alot variety without sacrificing performance. I'm starting to see it used more and more like fallout 4 which used ground "texture-debris" and what not, fallout 4 is pretty long when you look at the quests and what not. Also if you look up "gameriot" on youtube he is uploading all the gameplay. It looks to be at least 20 hours if you don't do the forts or all the bases and crafting, basically skimming the game.

Maybe there aren't many cutscenes, videos take up a lot more storage space

maybe they have reused the exact map from the last game and just put mammoths on it.maybe

THIS.

Size dont matter. Look at Project Zomboid for example

[Avalanche]

Its likely compressed, i downloaded Master of Orion, it was 1.9GB in size when downloaded, but once installed, it became 5.9GB.

So, i will not be surprised if it turns out to be 25-30GB in size once fully installed. (aka. released)

No.
Size in games do really matter. The bigger it is, the more content it has. The better graphics, animations, shadows. Better audio quality, MP3 isn't the same as FLAC.
Just think about it. :loll: And please, don't make an awful answer. No need to start a discussion.

Call of duty black ops 3 its like 64gb?
and the game itself, sucks.
Graphic isnt everything fella.

[Dellers]

Wasn't Watch Dogs around this size? That was a pretty big game.

Far Cry 3 is 11 Gb and a long and beautiful game. Most of the newer COD games on the other hand are about 50gb and very short in length by any standards. Far Cry Primal main story is not much different in length than both Far Cry 3 and 4 according to this site - http://howlongtobeat.com/game.php?id=31054 and there is plenty of side stuff and exploring to do on top again.

This game hasn't tons of audio like the old games had. No translations (audio).
