I know that irony doesn't travel well over the internet, especially in the form of text but there seems to be a shitload more lost in translation here.

I do know what a "multivolume archive" is, my whole point was that I can't understand how the game has bloated to the over 20gb size it is, and that makes it not only a chore to download compared to the vast majority of games on here but also makes me wonder whether there's even been an attempt to optimize the game.

Ffs. I "raise a squeal" because to me nothing actually in the game would straight up justify the ridiculous size, especially since there are plenty of examples out there comparable in content amount and animations that have been optimized to a fraction of the size of this game, so it must be some monstrosity of a custom engine that doesn't allow for proper optimization that's the issue here.
Now, here's a few handy tips for your future interactions over the internet:
1. Don't take everything literally.
2. If you try to insult someone's intelligence, make damn sure you don't come off as an infantile asshole like in this case.
3. Even if someone "raises a squeal"

, you jumping on to whiteknight your fav dev with this bullshit while actually having the
gall to try and accuse me of "being emotional" makes you look even more of an idiot than you are.
Fyi, I downloaded the 0.51 torrent, and since I've got to start a fresh playthrough any ways, I'll just skip the update to 0.52 and get the next release whenever that comes out.
"Raise a squeal", ffs laughed so hard coffee came out of my nose, but it was worth it.
