Back in the 90's patches would actually re-write specific files or replace a few smaller files in a container file.

Today a developer will replace everything, sometimes even sound bytes in one big fat package.

Honestly though I haven't really extended past a 1TB SSD, I do however have 30 terabytes of mechanical storage to fall back on...


That's what irks me about today's update processes. There's been numerous times where I've had an update for a game on Steam, and it demands I download far more than what the patches specify, only to find out the devs were so insanely lazy, that they basically made me redownload half if not most of the game, so it could repackage itself.

I still have plenty of space on my HDD, but I mostly save that HDD for older/smaller games, games that don't really benefit much if at all from the SSD.



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see
