why is medieval 2 download size 15 GB

[Browzy]

seems very big for this game? dont understand why it would be that size?

[Destin Faroda]

Lots of content like factions, units, videos, voice files etc.

[Shadow of the SPQR]

Well, it is a full blown game.

[Browzy]

but empire war is far less than that?

According to steam, med 2 on it's own is 11 gig, Empire is 15 gig,

Exactly. Not plagued by the current trend of selling less than half the game and releasing the rest as "DLC."

The "DLC" is this title is not your usual withholdings of game content. Rather it is an expansion of it's own. Or should I say four seperate expansions for the price of one usual "DLC."

Basically, this game was developed before the devs got greedy. Not just the devs of this title, but most of the current devs of today.

Right on campy! And thats why i tend to stick to older games such as this one. F DLC to play!

It's really quite sad what has happened to my favoriite hobby thanks to other people's simple greed. New games really aren't that good anyways. Look good? Yes, but gameplay is worse.

Better off just watching an animated movie or something than trying a current gen game.
