Install Size on Macbook Pro is insane!

[Killshotapotamus]

Just noticed after reinstalling BioShock Inf. on my new MBP15 that, with the DLC from the season pass, steam installed everything without asking-- totalling 44GB!! Damn.... I guess it's good there isn't much else I want to install on my Mac... or I would have to play 1-2 games at a time. These install sizes are getting rediculous. CoD:BOPS 3 on my Alienware is over 100GB, but at least I have a secondary 2TB data HD.

its quite the norm these days. Gta V is 80 Gb, destiny 2 is 80 Gb, ni no kuni 2 is 50Gb, rainbow six siege is 50Gb, for honor is 50 Gb its all the standard now

The size of the game doubled when the three DLC's (Clash in the Clouds, and Burial at Sea Episodes 1 and 2) were added to the main game.

Haha well... I started when they got actual GPU's... even if they were low level. I mainly game on my Alienware 15 R3 witha GTX 1070, or Surface Book 2 15" with it's GTX 1060 keyboard base if I'm traveling without my Macbook Pro (which device is work dependant sometimes). My other steam installs didn't auto-download the DLC, so I thought the Mac versions were huge.

But for anyone that really knows how bad the gaming history on Mac's has been would comment ... Who is STARTING to game on Macbooks... not who is STILL.... there was almost ZERO decent gaming otions until the 2010 MBP with a 1GB AMD GPU, then the 2012 MBP came out with a real Nvidia card. Then devs started trying to match some PC releases...

Burial at Sea is a self-contained story which is separate to the main game.

Clash in the Clouds has single player arena based combat, which includes a Bioshock Infinite museum with unlockable exhibits.

And I had Infinite installed on my secondary hard drive, and it ran fine for me.

Ok great... Thanks for the info! Sounds like I can uninstall them if I need the room.
