Surprisingly small(file size) modern games.

[Mirk]

Wow with all the expansions and added content is only 70gb.

Yeah my buddy and I were talking the other day about the switch and he was astonished to find out the sizes of stuff like Xenoblade and BoTW. I have around 100 games and the largest is something like 22 gb.

It's not new at all, but Skyrim's original size of 3.3 GB ONLY on the 360 blew my mind even back in the day.

the fact that xbox 360 games in general could survive under 10 gigs of disc space was always shocking to me.

 

[DonMigs85]

The Outer Worlds is only ~30GB IIRC

 

[Sargerus]

Dark Souls Remastered is 7GB on PC. The original PC port was around 4GB.

 

[Just That Simple]

N Sane Trilogy is 23.32 GB on PS4, and 5.2 GB on Switch, which is still pretty good compression, mind.

Super Mario 3D World being only 1.6GB is pretty crazy even amongst Nintendo games.

Oops. My bad there. Probably confused it with Spyro.

It is pretty surprising to me that Blizzard can keep Overwatch under 22 gbs

Yep, especially when you consider how bloated their PS3 counterparts often were.

Hell, games on the 360 couldn't even utilize the full 9GB of a dual sided DVD if i recall, a big chunk of it was reserved for data protection or something.

MHW was surprisingly small until Iceborne was released.

The Witcher 3 sitting on ~40GB with both expansions and all free DLC installed is pretty impressive to me with all content it has.

I am starting the DLC, I am surprised about the size too.

Anything Nintendo, they are great at optimising.

 

[Ultratech]

I usually expect games to be like 1GB minimum, but Terraria on Steam uses less than 300MB. I think it might be even less on consoles.

Click to shrink...

Yup, surprised me quite a bit.

Only took 260MB to download on Steam.

MH is 55gb though. Doesn't seem that surprisingly small.

Base World was quite a bit smaller (like around 13~16GB?)

With updates and later Iceborne, the filesize more than tripled to around 42GB.

And then more updates since then have blown it up.

Thankfully you don't have to install WoW from CDs anymore though lol.
