      250GB tops or it will be bs.
      GTA5 already had about 90-110GB of raw gamedata. I think right now it’s 150GB.

      Except it would take 3 literal months to download it (stupid home internet with a 1.25TB data cap)

        Goodness, do you live in Australia or something? Are there any better options, or can you not afford them? My spoiled and priveleged self has trouble comprehending a data cap on my internet plan.

        And if you go to the store and buy it in person, it’ll be a empty cd case with a serial key to download.

          or with a CD that installs a downloader, that is actually a background service always starting with the OS, and a few other bloatware to not waste CD space

          except that almost nobody has a CD drive anymore. so it must be a pendrive instead that was forced to read-only access

        Ah shit. That would suck. Personally I could start the download and have the game the next day. Which is roughly what it took to torrent a 4 GiB game back in the day if there weren’t enough seeds.
