the sandbox is actually a pretty hefty custom content creator with a decent modding community if that interests you.
Custom contant as in watch poses. I've seen people use WL to make images/short clips for their porn story/game.
But lets not forget that this is supposed to be a GAME.

Why are you mentally 10? Can you not see that games have grown exponentially in size for little gain? It's a matter of principle.
Devs are lazy and do not optimize. Very few games can actually justify their file size.
Why ship a game with 8K textures? Have that thing as an extra download FFS.
Is what it is. A good pc is awesome my guy you wont regret it if you upgrade :)

You sound like an angry child. Definitely not someone with any Game Development experience... because a person with that kind of experience would not sound as ignorant as you do now. Just because the size is not convenient, does not make it illegitimate. There are no 8k textures. There certainly are unoptimizations given its still an Alpha test build, but that isn't going to reduce the file size to the extent you're eluding too regardless. I get that it's a pain to download, but ranting about it doesn't change fill sizes or compression efficiency.

I have a brand new PC with more than enough power and HD space. I do not have access to unlimited internet all the time as I move around, but that isn't the issue.

You'd be wrong on that account.

This "game" doesn't need too much space but...

It is always possible to "optimize" more.
To be fair that's a 70GB reduction... on a game that initially had an install size of ~124GB. That almost certainly included uncompressed textures, audio with multiple localisations etc. If I had to guess likely encrypted packaging with compression applied afterwards (if at all). Plenty of room for quick wins that bring significant reductions in a title like that.

Wildlife by comparison is a ~13GB install. As you say it doesn't use much space and it's unlikely there are going to be many changes that could be made to significantly reduce that install size.

13gb is only download, actual size is around 26.5gb
