I spent so much time in Just Cause 2. The environment and map is unmatched to this day

Gigantic cities, snow biomes, forest, and even a bit of desert

JC3 and 4 were just 1 biome. All forest, NO BIG CITIES just teenie tiny villages and a small desert biome.
No environment diversity

It had plenty of voices lines dubbed in 5 languages which is more than a lot of games these days. And it had music too, not sure wtf you're on about.

For me it was the crew 1. And it remains the coolest map to cruise around. Then u Ishita murdered the game and nerfed the map a LOT in the crew 2.

To be honest most of the map looks the same, with repeating assets everywhere. There are only few unique locations.

ok faggot
https://youtu.be/jrf_YE3SYJQ
22 minutes of examples showing how ubishart removed all the cool places to find on the map. And there's also some spots the author missed. And he's not taking into account all the removed details such as shops, billboards, signs, or the nerfed light system, or weather, or pedestrians/animals/larger volume of cars on the road, lesser or badly implemented road textures and streetlights, building lights not being illuminated at night etc etc etc THERE'S TOO MANY EXAMPLES.

If so, that just proves the devs used little thoughtful tricks and techniques to keep the game's file size small, something the modern industry is utterly incapable of doing.

Shill. We see right through you.
>>749754592
>these techniques to keep a game's file size aren't lost, they just aren't done anymore
No shit, retard, the point is they aren't done anymore because the devs hire out the grunt work to jeets and no one bothers to put the effort in to do any sort of compression or optimization.

Yeah I played it. It has a ton of variety, but quite a lot of map space is filled with repeating water towers, gas stations and seaside villages. They are fun to blow up, but it's just a bunch of repeating assets.

Keep melting down. It was repetitive back then, too. And I specifically mentioned it many times in the past as a classic case of the desire for a giant world being detrimental to design, and only intended to sell it to underageb&s like you were back then

You're leaving because your bitching was unwarranted and you're making up talking points we didn't produce to begin with so you can have a target at hand to take down. Literal brown schizo. Nowhere am I pretending that JC2 replaces tightly designed compact worlds.
>>
Game sizes got large enough to negatively impact the experience nowadays, I don't care what sacrifices would be necessary, they're worth it. Games that I need to uninstall as soon as possible to make space for something else are inherently disposable, it's messing with replay value. It's getting in the way of permanently setting space for a multiplayer game for example. Maybe if storage becomes cheap again I'll care less but right now it's a big factor.

games are made artificially larger nowadays so you fit less games on your storage device
they do this for several reasons
it actively restricts game libraries to a few games, causing their players spend more money on their microtransactions and not their competition's
it also essentially holds your storage space ransom, as you are less likely to uninstall a 150gb game because the time it takes to reinstall it later is annoying
its not developer laziness, its on purpose

Not to mention Helldivers. They "updated" their game when they outsourced some of their horseshit to a third party. And it cut the game down from 120GB to just 20. All video games can do this if you have competent people. But there are HUGE files just sitting there silently because potentially it might save on processing power on a console. It's horseshit.
>>
>>749766327
They didn't update shit, they just removed files that should've never been there if the first place, and they wouldn't have been if the devs just did a simple test themselves instead of blindly trusting """industry experts""".
