The Elder Scrolls

It's 120 GB because of 4k textures and the high fidelity models to support that and ray tracing and all that shit. There's only so much you can do to "compress" stuff like that without impacting their clarity.
The original game had like 512x512 textures. The remaster probably contains like 4000x4000 textures.
I'm sure they could've done better, AAA dev producers love to cut corners on this shit, but it's not like this was ever gonna be under, generously, like 40GB.
Even Nöll dropped this absolutely retarded take on stream, "Why can't this game be the same size as it was 20 years ago"?
Christ almighty, a single 4k texture can be 100 megabytes. 20 is like the absolute minimum.
 
>put on masochistic difficulty that makes you deal 20% damage and take 500% damage
>in a game which is notorious for scaling loot to your level
>wonder why you get shit loot and everything takes ages
Here's a tip, join a Guild.
I like suffering but I want an actual reward at the end instead of useless dogshit.
 
I do not hate all trannies.
Honestly, I hate some individuals that have passed by my life, but I honestly am indifferent to most people in the world, just don't try to bullshit on me.
But holy shit, trannies just want to make a mockery of themselves, they just can't for the love of god live and let live, they ought to make everyone care about them, which is why I as a bisexual dude can't identify myself with anything LGBT related, and I have for some years already been calling myself just LGB without all the mental illnesses that anything after the B carries.
And what I hate the most of these lunatics is how they pander so much to the muslims which are quite literally the number one reason all hatred against gay men has escalated exponentially in the past decade since our government mass imported these literal uncivilized cavemen.
 
The industry as a whole is so shit that Bethesda can release a barely functional game that requires user-made patches and mods to fully enjoy and it still comes on top, because the competition is so bad.
Bethesda has gotten a pass on being utterly shit at making games for literally decades now, because idiots handwaved it with "The COMMUNITY will fix it with mods!", so your theory is invalid.

I don't know why the 4K textures can't just be a seperate download.
This is the correct answer. IIRC Skyrim had them as a free DLC. But if you did that the Marketing team would kill you. Framerate doesn't matter, what matters is you step into the game and are blasted with the most glorious of bullshot possible for screenshots in the IGN article.
 
Just because you *can* store it doesn't mean you should. 2TB is a whole lot of gay porn you could be using to do cwingy boing-boing on your goonstick and making plappie-plaps in your handwomb.
Okay now rewrite this insult, but this time with less homo.
 
. I wish that fucking britbong faggot HeelvsBabyface didn't make that video of him soy raging over Starfield's pronoun feature, all he accomplished was devaluing people's genuine complaints over stupid shit like this
He was completely correct though and they're just going to say everyone complaining about anything of this lunacy is being "soy" because they can't even get their own insults

maybe, hold on, maybe, maybe, MAYBE, we don't need an 8k resolution for a cats anus or whatever.

Seriously, depleting returns on graphical improvements was already mentioned, daggerfall to morrowind was amazing, morrowind to oblivion was great, and oblivion to skyrim was....nice, but not that great. Anything past that is purely setting resources on fire because you can imo.

Eventually the file size is just stupidly fucking bloated, especially when you MUST download the 8k resolution cat anus despite wanting to run it on low and get a 64x64 pixel cat anus.

Its not that we AREN'T AWARE of basic data storage, ESPECIALLY null is fucking aware of this, its that we DON'T need 8k resolution cat anuses

Oh fuck off forever with those strawmen you clueless, disingenuous, retarded faggot. You bring nothing to the discussion. You have ZERO fucking clue how games work on the inside.

Yeah, that's right. Toss those hats, retard, that's all you can do.
For the record, here's a 8k texture mod for a SINGLE FLOOR in Solitude. 400 megs.

I can help you reframe the insult to remove any offensive or inappropriate elements. Here's a cleaned-up version:

"Just because you can store it doesn't mean you should. 2TB is a whole lot of questionable content you could be using to do cwingy boing-boing on your goonstick and making plappie-plaps in your handwomb."

This keeps the playful tone while steering clear of anything potentially harmful or discriminatory. Let me know if you'd like further tweaks!

Just remember guys, we have to last maybe 1 more generation until we get full dive VR and Holodecks, then our society collapses and we all can check out forever. Just one more generation. The Betas will be the last of us. It's coming!

John Carmack years ago (like two decades) said audio in games was at diminishing returns levels of quality and graphics were not far behind. We're just in that now. Massively diminishing returns for more and more data and fidelity.

Is the jump from 40gb to 120gb of textures worth it? Probably not. That's a much broader issue the entire tech sector is struggling with as the wheels come off of the "things are always getting better" train.
