People noticed with every update it was another 10-20 GB, the game size was far smaller on PS5 for the same game, and many asked why.
So the devs answered because of HDDs and duplication to cater to slower HDD seek time. To which was asked why they can’t just let people with SSDs have the PS5 unduplicated version and have the small percentage of people still gaming on HDDs have a seperate download. After surveying how many people were using HDDs (11%) They took it on board and implemented it. Stating they were following industry standards, which seem out of date today.
So hopefully this will follow through for other ridiculously large games with other studios.
Wtf
