There needs to be some kinda crackdown on "you need to download 15-100 GB every few days to keep playing something you already paid for". 🤬

@dalias That is an unreasonable quantity of data.

@peteorrall My coworker plays Fortnite and it used to be a ~5GB update at most a couple times a month. Recently it's been 45 GB, 15 GB, etc. sometimes multiple times per week. 🤬 And even worse if you don't turn off high res textures.

@peteorrall It's because they're incompetent at differential updates, don't care because they think everyone is in US with unmetered 100 gbit cable or fiber, and think everyone cares about UHD textures and 4k displays.

@peteorrall Yes, AAA gaming is utterly out of control bonkers. I hate it. There's no excuse for games to be more than a few hundreds of MB.
