45 GB update?!

[greenraven22]

Is the entire game just suddenly being reinstalled or something?! Why is the update so huge?!

It installs the game I think. MyGames version never installed the game using steam. It only installed the crappy launcher which installed the game. Back then, uninstalling the game would only uninstall the launcher and you still had to uninstall the actual game by yourself. Now that we got rid of MyGames, I suppose the game is now fully integrated as a steam game, which is a good thing. The downside is we have to actually download it again from steam.

Well for starters the original download was done through the MyGames launcher.
A launcher that is now irrelevant since MyGames is no longer involved with this game.
So now the old installation is worthless and everyone on steam needs the new one.

I don't know if they will require the Poros launcher for steam users but I certainly know you need to transfer your Mygames account to Poros (this very moment) or else it's gone

Not sure if anyone said this yet, but the launcher, n sh!t, ya know?

So... I had TWO games installed on my hardrive: Conqueror's Blade 40+GB (as far as I was aware) AND Path of Exile 32GB AND 21 GB free (totalling over 90GB). So I've had to uninstall Path of Exile vacating a total of around 53GB total for the Poros 45GB update which then left me with around 10GB on my hardrive... I then went to the trouble of uninstalling Conqueror's Blade expecting 90GB to 100GB free on my hardrive but noticing only 69GB free and reinstalling the game will take 58.75GB... What happened to the 32GB of hardrive I had free from Path of Exile AND the 21GB I had spare? Is the My.Game copy of the game still somehow installed on my hardrive and if so how can I remove it as I had only ever logged into My.Games from Steam?

I have space sniffer and looked because of the same, you have to go into the files and uninstall the client/game, we all technically have two games installed. The two versions are a string of numbers and one that just says client. Keep the one that says client.

How do you uninstall the old mygames CB?
EDIT: I moved the old CB folders to the recycle bin, It seemed to work.

So you just can delete the old Game Folder and the game still works for you? Did you also delete the sperate Mygames Folder?
