Not really helpful, doesn't explain why the file size is so big for such little content.
Also, they say "yes i think and end of this version" that is not a definite answer.
I was looking for a better explination and a definite answer not some condisending dickhead to reply.
Thanks anyway.
Please don't take my comment to personal. I tried to avoid being authoritative, using a lighthearted joke to carry out that threads should be consulted before asking questions. Which was destined to fail as text doesn't reflect the (intended) tone of voice easily. And in hindsight I have to admit that
xsikal's reaction answers your question more clearly then the one I quoted.
About the game taking up a lot of space:
SonsOfLiberty's great
compressed version turned out only 320-325 MB. So it seems high quality renders are the cause of the original size. Which is confirmed by looking at the content archive: the short in-game animations alone take up 2 GB. Aside from images with a whooping 3840 x 2160 resolution that can be up to 10 MB each.
Whether the uncompressed game size is proportionate to the overall experience is a subjective matter. The amount of players
asking for extra save slots might be interpreted affirmatively. For me personally - looking at the time I spend joyfully figuring out every outcome leading to a different scene
(listed here) - I think the game offers a fair amount of playable content. Given the state of the development of course.
The dialogue tree driven gameplay style might not match expectations of those in favor of more linear stories or who like 'rushing' directly to intimate scenes. But in the end that remains an artistic choice for the dev to make, as is the render quality. Which to me really contributes to the game's immersion btw.
So I hope the dev will keep things the way they are. SOL's compressions will serve members downloading with slow internet connections or playing on low-end devices. I do think it would benefit the game when players get the option for a 'free roaming' and an 'automatic' mode. (As been done in games I cannot name without risking this post getting deleted for going off-topic ...)
