On PC, the game is 139.84 GB. On console, it’s 100.19 GB for Standard or 117.07 GB for the Premium Edition
Time for another SSD
Yeah, add to that MSFS with all extensions, and now my 1 TB 970 Pro isn’t enough : (
We have gone from cartridges, to CDs, to kind-of cartridges.
We have kinda gone full circle! Now we need something lile a holocron or like a Cortana AI chip to store an even bigger amount.
I remember when Titanfall being 50gb sparked an outrage, it’s a good thing SSDs are cheap now.
I picked up a 1TB NVMe for literally $38 this week. Absolutely absurd how inexpensive SSDs are right now.
Be careful, most cheap NVMe drives have low endurance. Llike, not “Oh, you’re just hand wringing about nothing,” endurance ratings but an actually and relevantly low number of terabytes that can be written before the drive becomes failure-prone. They also usually lack a DRAM cache, so certain operations can be as slow as a mechanical hard drive, thereby negating the major advantage of opting for solid-state storage.
They were all that price unless I went up to PCIe 4.0, which my laptop doesn’t support. I got a well-known brand. But thanks for the heads up!
This could be a problem for console players though, especially those with a Series S which can’t run new games off an external.
Not if you have a PS5. I just added a $99 2TB Samsung 980 Pro to mine. Microsoft really shafted Xbox owners with their Seagate partnershit.
Oh yeah, let’s create 250GB SSD cartridges per game because thry each cost about 26€
You know how ridiculous that sounds, right?
Yes, everyone realizes how ridiculous that sounds. Why did you post it?
Also, please don’t give EA any ideas.

Yes, that does sound ridiculous, good thing I didn’t say it.
I mean if you really wanna maximize your spending you can get 150 1gb flash drives and trick the OS to thinking its one device.
Or like just gets bigger drive that’s cheaper per GB like someone with a brain.
And like how would cartridge games work anyways? most PCs have really limited sata slots

So it’s about the size of Baldur’s Gate 3… Better have just as much content!
This is how we end up with 100+ hours of Assassin’s Creed

When I got the Series X I thought “oh good, I won’t have to juggle my games now that I have so much space.”
Dammit.
Do we have any sort of information on how big the Shattered Space Story Expansion is supposedly going to be? Because 30 bucks extra seems excessive, especially when the game is already 70 bucks. Kinda feels like they just want to lure you with the early access, which will likely be a hot mess anyway.
I am going to take a few days and wait on it. The last game I preordered from bethesda was fallout 76, and that was a wake up call.
No one in the video game industry is beyond delivering a poor experience for tons of money.
That game was pretty obvious though. It was purely building on that stupid multiplayer pvp sandbox hype at the time.
It’s the first time Todd has ever heard someone tell him “Omg it’s so big”
Lmao, I was right in taking a new SSD during the sales
clickbait is stupid. It’s 125GB.
Thanks
