I get the impression that Japanese games are always smaller in file size then western ones. I think Dragon Quest XI is only 20 gigs on the PS4, and that's an 80 hours game.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice File Size Is Less Than 13GB (Xbox One)

Is that the total install size? If so, I'd be worried this might be an 8-10 hour game and not 40+ like previous Soulsborne entries.

Yup.
Monster Hunter World is 16GB, Dark Souls 3 is 20GB, Persona 5 is 24GB, Dragon Quest 11 is 21GB, Breath of the Wild is 14GB, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is 14GB.
Good. I can't believe people here are already used to bullshit 50-100 GB file sizes being the norm

Japan is killing it this gen. Even when it comes to file sizes.
Last week I downloaded MW Remastered off PS+ and it was 75GB lol
Oh I know. Just sick of seeing Nioh, and now apparently DS3 (??!) as an example of bad enemy variety when a clearly worse example exists :P
if this is indicative of a shorter game, i'm all for it.
20 hour games that are 100% quality are a blessing

Yeah in FROM's case your probably right. It's always refreshing to see smaller file sizes and some games have totally escalated way out of hand.
What?! I haven't said anything good or bad about God of War. Its a completely different game with a focus on story. The opposite of Soulslikes. (I'm confused).
We're beyond knee-deep at this point, Bloodborne levels may have been exceeded and I thought that was impossible.
Sekiro is definitely two hours long and has only one boss fight...which is of course Hino-Enma from Nioh because From are ripoff morons who have not delivered some of the most consistently great games since 2009.
DS3 is pure lulz. Now we're at From lacking enemy variety...
The point they're making is install size has nothing to do with length or enemy variety. GoW is a 45gb install and it has less enemy variety than DS3 a 20gb install.
See below:
Not picking on you, just basically wanted to list a game with a huge file size that has poor enemy variety, so I see little evidence that file size is connected to enemy variety.
Darlk Souls III (base game) is 16-17gb and considering that Sekiro uses the same engine the file size is not really surprising.
or maybe Activision will do what they did with Spyro? You gotta download part of the game as a giant day 1 update lol.
I forgot about that! You know with the massive file sizes we saw this looks weird lol 13GB is amazing to see now
4TB HDDs arent that expensive. Got mine for less than 100 bucks and it will be more than sufficient until the end of this generation.
Whenever I see something like this I have to think of Warrior Within and The Two Thrones: the former requiring 3,3GB, the latter only 1,5GB. TTT wasn't shorter by any means and had even less backtracking. When it tells me anything, it's that space requirements seem to make no fucking sense, even nowadays. I mean, The Witcher 3 with all addons is like 70 or 80GB? on PS4, but only 45GB on PC. I mean, relatively and in absolute numbers spoken, this is HUGE!
Lobos Jr. played the game for six hours and didn't even beat a single proper boss. I'm not worried about this game's length in the slightest.
Seems small - maybe It's a preventative measure to ensure it doesn't leak - like it's half the file size?
Also it's probably compressed - it's probably around 30GB uncompressed.

Isn't Gears 4 like 100gb? I burned through that shit at like 20gb per hour.
In fact, I hereby request anyone reviewing games to have a gamesize/completion time ratio so I know if I'm getting my money's worth.

People in here saying this is a bad thing are crazy lol.
Nioh absolutely does have bad enemy variety though.
All of those were perfect...Jesus Christ...Dark Souls 3 has the best enemy variety in a Souls game.
Maybe higher quality texture, more music tracks or less compressed tracks, voice over, cg etc.
FFXIV and Rainbow Six Siege recently cut their filesizes by half. It sometimes really is a mystery.
If only people knew that most of the file size of a game is audio and video.
Doom on PC was 77GB
On switch, it was 22.4GB with heavily compress audio.
Ignore this person.
From already confirmed the game length to be similar to that of previous Soulsbrone games
