    If the download is 210 GB, I hate to think what the install size will be after everything is unzipped.

      Likely around 280-300 gigs. Most games don’t unpack their files nowadays. They decompress them on the fly.

      So the install size tends to not be that much bigger then the download.

      Even still that’s like a third of a ps5s storage iirc

      If they unpack things more for the pc release tho… It could readily balloon to almost a terabyte if they wanted to be assholes.
