I think free disk space means space for downloaded setup files and game files. So final size would be around half.

I remember a similar issue about Rome Total War Remastered, where the projected size was something ridiculous like 80gb and it turned out to be around half that.

Wasn't that due to 2/3 of the total file size being an optional 4K texture pack?

You guys don't understand.

It's 120GB of uncompressed, dubbed George RR Martin drivel!

 

[The_Mask]

Listen... if the poise is fixed and the gameplay is solid, who am I to complain about 150 Gb of pure delight. I'll wipe out almost everything else for that kind of treat.

My only question is: is that the final weight, or does it increase? Because I know my hardware can handle the size, but I'm not sure about my heart.

Maybe? I didn't see or know about a 4k texture pack, so that could be the case.

 

[Puukko]

So far I've always taken size requirements to mean the final size, so you will need more than that to install it. Stalker 2 is also listed at 150gb. I don't particularly mind large games - the higher quality the assets, the better for preservation.

Then again, what's the source?

A little birdie told me those are literally RDR2's requirements, lol.

 

[Jenkem]

I wonder when we'll get to see some actual unedited gameplay. If this game is just Dark Souls 4 it's going to suck.

Well, it looks like Dark Souls 3 + mounts, including jumppads for the horse (lel), because they couldn't be arsed to coordinate the gameplay and mapping departments. Everything shown so far looks like shit. But the fanboys will once again gobble it up.

Aaand we have another FS Souls-like in the works.

FromSoftware might be working on a PS5 exclusive, but it's not Bloodborne 2

I honestly almost got a heart attack when I read the first part, immediately thinking "holy fucking shit BB2 is coming". But then womp womp. Still, it's FS and it's an aRPG. Take ALL my money.

Looks like I'm doing the ol' trick of buying a console, buying the game used, keeping it for 29 days and returning both on the 30th. I'm not getting stuck with another Bloodborne machine.

That's something you can do in the US?

Only if you're more anal than Piper Perri.

Yeah and if you get it from a Costco you can even return it five years later with or without a receipt, I'd recommend keeping the receipt so you get the full $500 back instead of whatever price it's going for at time of return. They say 90 days on electronics but I've never had a problem with anything.
Check out this thread of people returning piss stained mattresses and stuff https://old.reddit.com/r/Costco/comments/4b0yf8/for_costco_employees_whats_the_most_outrageous/

Oh my god the fucking audacity of some members is just so- are you not embarrassed to return that?
Someone bought a ribeye bone in cryovac around 200 dollars during the holidays and returned a cooked container of bones and fat.
Yes, they were completely reimbursed for returning literally .13 cents worth of fat and bones.
Lmao, major eye roll.

Bloodborne, Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir, The Last Guardian, 13 Sentinels, and Ghost of Tsushima.

[Can't handle the bacon]

I bought a PS4 to play bloodporn and I couldn't play the game for more than 15 minutes because it was giving me anxiety.

 

[Monstrous Bat]

No new trailer, but some game medias have been invited to watch a 15-minute gameplay footage and wrote articles about it.

Spoiler

Apparently this game has a quest compass. Literally. I wish I was kidding.

 

[Baron Dupek]

This is some good stuff

 

[Cyberarmy]

This is some good stuff

I thought those were consept arts from far, game looks great aesthetically, as usual.

Not surprised if true.
FromSoft has been going downhill for years now.

 

[Matador]

Good fashion souls.

 

[cvv]

Fextralife saw it, now talking about it on strem.

Apparently it's p. much DS3 in an open world with more bosses and other stuff, also with jump, stealth and Sekiro-like posture mechanics.

An industry that prides itself from withholding, rather than informing, its customers. Inverse-Journalism at its best.

SO PRETTY
