What gave you that impression? The game is already compressed down from ~90GB.
this is sounding like a ps5 fan talking to a ps5 owner with the dev team in the room.
- $700 ps5 only has 400gb storage
- New ps5 owner buys a new game needs 143gb
- new ps5 owner wtf developer make it smaller
- Fanboy be like so what? are you broke just buy a 1tb nvme for $100.
- dev be like have you seen the raw files? yeall be mad if you had to use that.
The switch has been in the same boat for awhile small storage from the get go with big game installs.
I remember the 2006 motorstorm ps3 days still own my 80gb ps3 system.
Its funny and kinda sad we are going more backwards than forwards you think 2022 ps5 would not be like a 2006 ps3. Or a modern pc would have enough room for a renply game but new pc's also come with small storage options.
Its not the development team issue its more the storage solutions used on our devices out of the box (size not type).
