Based on what is in these notes it feels like it should've been exponentially smaller. Why are all the files in this game so unnecessarily large? I understand eso is a large and complex game but sometimes these incremental patches are larger than some entire xbox games.

✭✭✭✭✭I think they often pre-download stuff for subesquent updates. If you think about Crown store items the previews etc are big.
Also the size isnt the true size on your SSD, as disk space never reduces by that amout. Part of it is incremental I thinkXbox One | EU | EP

Jinchuu✭✭✭✭Console updates are always big because they have to entirely replaced whatever is changed. So even if your code changes added up to 50kb if they affected a 10 gig section of the game data you have to replace the entire 10 gigs. Msoft and Sony had some weird reasoning behind it that I can't really remember, most likely something to do with preventing users from modding.Unless you are willing to be a mindless sycophant and/or coddle others due to their insecurities prepare to be harrased by the Orwellian enforcers on these forums. You should also try to refrain from using any words more complex than those used by a small child due to the fact that said enforcers have made it clear that their vocabulary pool is aenemic.1

yeah that explains it better than I did! I noticed it when I reinstalled the game and kept a closer track on disk space.Xbox One | EU | EP
