What eats up most of this space? Gonna guess hi-res textures.

Uncompressed high bitrate audio was a massive culprit during the 8th gen... Titanfall developer even stated that 35GB of the 48GB install was uncompressed audio.

Audio is a tricky one to do lossless compression on without upsetting audiophiles.

Hi-res textures tend to be extremely compressible, most developers will do this.

This makes me wonder why developers don't offer both a version with compressed audio and a version with uncompressed audio since that would please everyone.
