https://www.gamesradar.com/games/action-rpg/nier-automata-is-now-a-366gb-install-on-steam-after-a-small-update-up-from-50gb/>Nier: Automata has received a small update on PC which adds three new language options to the storied action RPG, and somehow it has apparently increased its install size from 50GB to a staggering 366GB.>Square Enix, Platinum Games have multiplied Nier: Automata's hard drive demand by sixfolf. Users speculate that the entire game was mistakenly stapled to the DLC footprints, so duplication might be the most accurate.>The patch notes for the update seemingly responsible could fit on your thumb. "The Steam patch released on November 6th, 2026 includes the following," the update reads. Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean are now supported.https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/524220/view/760703279879422371?l=english>Outside of welcome language support, the game is unchanged according to all early analysis. In the Steam discussion for this update, other users have reported a chunky but sensible 8GB download for the patch itself. >The storage recommendation on the Steam store page system requirements is also the same: "50 GB available space."
clickbait shit, it's a bugkys jewrno
it seems like products are just going to keep getting worse and theres literally no way for consumers to turn it around we have no power to prevent general decline and companies are just going to pitilessly fuck over their customers over and over
>>751053509SHOCKING NEWS
>>751053615>bugmore like jeetcoding again
>>751053509Why are asians so bad at coding?
It takes 40.7gb, the space requirement actually dropped slightly from before the update
>>751053615>jewrnoJej
>>751053690has nothing to with coding. each and every dlc includes the files of the entire game (it won't actually download all those duplicates)
>>751053813hownew.ru
SE is the dumbest company alive. This can't be news to anyone.
>>751053509>small update>+300 gbwho the fuck is the retarded cocksucker who wrote this piece of shit?
>>751053509366gb of robo pussy and ass
>>751056364It was clearly meant to be a small update that simply added new language support, the fact that it accidentally added 300GB was a coding mistake and is what makes the situation funny
>>751056364It's a square enix product.
>>751053509Just decomp this shit already
>>751053509Everyone had it uninstalled anyway.
>>751053509nice virus
>>751056364You're really in no position to call anyone retarded with comprehension abilities like that
>>751053509>366GB update>A game like Near A Tomato needing 50GB to begin with
>>7510535092b butt polygons are 360gb
Some absolute retard included the entire game in every dlc released during the update. If you selectively not install DLCs, the install file decreases.
>>751053690Japs are dumber than jeets lmao
>>751053509it was a shit open world game anyway. nothing of value is lost
>>751056559bitch, shut the fuck up and go rewrite your failed article you esl faggot. NOW.
>>751053509I assume Platinum are not the ones maintaining this game anymore. Did Square hire jeets or something?
>>751056629I don't think I'm capable of dumbing it down enough for you, I'm very sorry but you're just going to have to get better at reading
>ching chong ching>that will be 366gb
>>751056686listen carefully little bitch: FUCK. YOUR. ARTICLE. FAGGOT!!!!!
>>751056727I do not understand sir. What are you trying to say?
>>751056727I understand that when confused like this you default to aggression but at some point in life you'll have to accept that people are no longer going to coddle you. It's time for you to put a little bit more effort into reading than none at all.
I assumed they upscaled 2B's ass or something... shame...
>>751056364He was clearly being facetious you broccoli haired moron. Kill yourself.
>>751056819He's not, it IS a small update. Being loaded with duplicate files doesn't change the fact that very little has been added.
>>751053727Asian coders are generally aimed at hardware. So their approach it is generally iterate until it just barely works, hacking away and slamming the lid on it once it's done and meets the baseline requirements. They don't have to worry about architecture, design or flexibility, new hardware means brand new code and the fun starts over. As long as the output meets spec, it doesn't matter what spaghetti monstrosity that lurks in the silicon
>>751056571Didn't Witcher 3 take less space despite being retardedly fuckhuge compared to Tomato?
>>751056817300GBs OF PUSSY AND ASS
>>751056898Witcher 3 is 50GB, Nier is 40
>>751056957OG Witcher 3 was 35GBIt's 50 with expasions.
GTA6 MOGGED THE FUCK OUT
>>751053509[FAKE NEWS]Reality: some retard caused an issue where all the DLC is showing the full games file size, so the file size is being multiplied by the number of DLCsKill OP, strangle OP, piss down OPs nostrils, flay OP, NTR OP, kick OP in his clitty. Force OP to kill himself.

This is the state of gaming in 2026. It's so fucking over. Not a single company can do anything right, they just fuck over the consumer in a variety of ways because fuck you, you don't matter paypig and will buy the game anyway. This is disgusting behavior. I'll never give them a cent anymore.
>>751057061Nobody is fucked over by thisIt's really not worth the fuss being made
>>751057061It's a bug you dramatic faggot retard
>>751056898
>>751057061>NOOOOOO IT'S OVER BECAUSE SOMEONE MADE A MISTAKEReactionary retard.
>>751056815FUCK that shit BITCH, LEARN TO FUCKIN WRITE!
>>751057279I did, many years ago. Now it is time for you to do your part and get your reading comprehension up to at least a high school graduate level.
>>751057350no, it's time for you to motherfuckin DO as you're TOLD, NOW SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU FUCKIN FAGGOT PIECE OF SHIT. FUCK YOU.
Just remove the cosmetic garbage DLCs. Main game is still 40GB.
>>751057412Your vocabulary could really use a small update, it's quite pitiful.
>>751053509There's a weight gain/inflation joke somewhere in this.
>>751057463It's still 40gb with every one of those selected, it doesn't actually try to install the full game that many times
>>751057061This is a complete nothing burger but you’re probably a fucking ai bot so no point to even replying to you
>>751053509>why does people pirate, I dont get it?
>>751059718good morning sir
