Strange. Do you have a special edition?
My download (in Germany) looks like this.

Hmm for me on Steam it was 59GB.

Transfer size vs installed size maybe? I never checked to see if they use compression or not.

Not that I know of, thought it was just the standard game, was activated from a Feral review copy so maybe it had some DLCs or something.

I'm sure further optimizations from the mesa team will arrive in the coming weeks and months. But it's a shame that ports keep being released with no official AMD support. We essentially have 4.5 support on mesa now and still it's not enough. I will be interested to see how the game performance progresses and hopefully it will be at a good place by the time Vega and Zen is released as I'm looking to build a whole new high end system for gaming.

And that is the main reason I don't waste time on games. Who wants to load up a 1TB HDD, never mind a secondary SSD for video games?

You talk like this because your collection of Porn needs that space, right?

Yes they use compression.

Well buy (it for) Playstation and keep things separate... price the same for this game, for same perf/graphics you would need triple powerful PC rig anyway

I understand their point. And I think you are not right about the 4.5 support.
There is no Linux distribution that ships with MESA 13 today. Sure, you can include some external repositories... but I understand that feral doesn't want to offer support for this.

And I share your hope that Deus Ex will help polishing MESA. I think, MESA will soon be the gold standard used by porters/devs.

No self respecting gamer uses AMD. Green team == gaming. Intel + nVidia destroys AMD + AMD. Nothing comes close to 1080. AMD is years behind when it comes to performance/watt. AMD is going down and will go bankrupt. Do not buy from AMD since you won't get any support when they'll go under.

All the PCs that I build for people have Intel and nVidia. I refuse to build with AMD and convince people to go to with Intel and nVidia. The faster AMD goes down the faster I don't have to argue with people to switch to the real deal.

You realize the day AMD goes down, there's nothing stopping Intel or NVidia from significantly increasing their prices, right?
