How big is the game in Files

[SpentMercury]

Please tell me

CO/Paradox has not yet announced the exact size of the game. I assume CS2 will be considerably larger than CS1's 4GB. PCGameBenchmark estimated the size to be at least 50GB, but we'll have to wait and see.

Yikes :O
Then I do definitely run low on space on my games partition and need a bigger disk

Maybe Paradox should give us really a hint regarding this topic before the game gets released to avoid some unfortune surprises on release day...

Unfortunately that may be the case. :(

If possible, you can try to remove any unnecessary files/games or expand your storage. Worst case scenario, you can always refund the game prior to the game's release, as long as it's within the 14 day mark.

Do you still partition drives?

Every building is between 2 and 20 Gigabytes depending on type.
Skyscrapers are obviously bigger in size.

Have a ssd set aside and ready if this turns out to be my new sim.

I need a city builder that isn't as stressful as something like Rimworld or vague as Dwarf Fort in it's current state.


I own the first Cities game, and am considering spinning it up just to get an idea. Ive never had a taste for these until recently but always jumped on past sales like a spoiled gamer.

I hope it isn't more than 25-30GB, otherwise my internet will want me to explode, and I won't have enough space. I have a second SSD, but it's an external one and is probably slower than my main one. If the game is 50GB, I don't know what I'm gonna do.

I usually only get games when they're on sale.

It's funny. I just spent the last 5 days being outnumbered in an argument concerning install sizes, before a mod locked the thread.

You'll be happy to know a 115gbs install size is perfectly fine and the standard for a game released 7+ years ago. At least according to those people.

So you can expect C:SII to be AT LEAST 175gbs.

What? That's a totally normal install size. We all love it and so do you. Don't think about it. Just consume product and get excited for next product. Independent thought is a hazard to our society.

175GB?! Actually, no. I would much rather drive into an explosive barrel than try and download that with the horribly slow internet you won't believe.

Balders gate 3 is like 150gig, there is no way CS2 is going to be 175...
It would surprise me if it was under 30 and over 60

Well damn. Looks like I'm never playing BG3 then.
