This is how I felt with bg3. Like I know there’s a lot of little assets for every bookshelf and basket type you have to click on incessantly, but…150GB for a third person isometric? Is every book ready for rendering at 8k or something?
It’s not isometric though, the camera can be controlled, zoomed in/out/rotated, and it has a full 3d world. And it’s huuuuge. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think any game should be that large, but BG3 has at least some justification for it.
Is it maybe voice files etc for all the potential branching storylines and conversations that can happen? It’s such a spiderweb of branching storylines that I’d imagine it can take up a fair whack but I genuinely dont know jack shit, just spitballing.

I don’t even think the world is that big. There’s just a lot in it.
I did try to google the size of the map, but got a horseshit AI slop answer that wasn’t based on any kind of reality.
I think it’s probably the gargantuan amounts of super hi definition audio that do BG3.
