What causes this level of bloat? Almost a 10x increase in memory usage is ridiculous. Are modern devs just incapable of optimization? No wonder Chris Sawyer hates the OpenRCT project, they ruined his clean, efficient code.

512mb of ram is the same requirement as RCT2 has with all the DLC. See:

That's Steam bloat. The pdf manual included on the Triple Thrill Pack CD has the same memory requirement, 64MB minimum 128MB recommended

64bit is bloat

it includes optional hardware renderer. that's where all the size comes from. if you want you can run it software mode (cpu) like old quake, modern pcs are more than fast enough for it.

Because that doesn’t include the ram usage of a modern operating system
