ESO space on disc?

Zypheran

How much space should ESO be taking up on my drive?
Currently it's 135GB on mine... this sounds like a lot.
Is there something I should be deleting? Like old patches etc?

Yep, that’s as it should be.

Do you have the PTS installed?

Pretty sure you have PTS installed too, you can delete that one if you don't need it

I find with a lot of these games that my screenshots folder ends up taking up more space than the game did after a little bit of time... check that.

My ESO install is using up 67.6gb in the Zenimax folder. and 73.7mb in the Documents/Elder Scrolls Online folder.

Also... what is PTS?
It looks like I don't have it installed given how much space I'm using... but how would I know if I did?

Thanks all for quick responses

My PS4 threw some errors last week and I had to reinitialise it and install everything from scratch. ESO was previously taking up between 150 and 200 GB on the disk, but when I re-downloaded it, its only 79Gb. I checked and this included all the DLC and other updates.

I'm guessing that a lot of the patches have been base game updates, but it doesn't delete the old files so the game ends up taking up far more space than it should. If you've got the time and a fast internet, I suggest you uninstall it and then reinstall as I was forced to do. Appreciate you're on PC but the same principles apply.
