x2, since it's buy to play now. it worth every damn penny of it. TSW will be the demise of GW2 now lmao.

It  was about 25 gb for me and i do not remember my screen ever looking like yours, mine was off the launher, are you installing in linux or off some site you bought it off?  I would get it off game site if you are.

 If it is up to 40gb, thats insane lol

Lol! I can make space on my drive if needs be, but hot damn, 40 gigs in one shot! Most games just make the contents download as you go, this will take a full day to get! Not to mention bandwitch!

This is from Steam, windows vista platform.

currently mine takes up about 33g. its taking up 33gb of FREE space.

I don't think it's the time he is worried about (Steam states it will take several hours to download games for me yet takes half an hour at best.)

Rather, the GB size of the game is massive compared to even a game like World of Warcraft (25 or so GB give or take.)

THough at the same time, TSW has been said to have the top 3 rating in Graphics. If not First for how heavily it can hit your system. Even in DX9 it looks beautiful.

Yeah, we can't seriously compare this:

TSW is by far the most graphically advanced MMO on the market, at least in technical terms. I.e. we can argue about the artstyle, but in terms of texture resolution, polygon count etc, nothing else in the genre comes close. It's no wonder the assets are large.

Of all the things you shouldn't try to brag up, it's the character creation. AoC has it beat by spades and it's on the same engine.

It doesn't have to be in a single session, You can stop and start the download at your leisure.
