Additional content on PS5 :

Haunted Hogsmeade Shop Quest which grants access to an additional dungeon, Shopkeeper's Cosmetic Set, and in-game Hogsmeade shop.

 

[Lokaum D+]

ok

 

[ZoukGalaxy]

I really hope it worth it.

 

[hemo memo]

That’s moderate. Obviously a massive game.

 

[splattered]

Depending on preorder bonuses i may just wait for this to go on sale and/or peep general reviews etc. Not totally sold on it but it does look decent.

 

[Topher]

Please be good

No preload on PC

 

[Punished Miku]

I guess Sony is officially 3 GB more transphobic than MS. Shameful.

 

[Putonahappyface]

79.5 GB yummy.

 

[ExcitableBoy]

I wonder how many on Reeeeee will be secretly preloading?

 

[oji-san]

Thank you for the info, not too big so cool.

Why isn't series s less than the others? Did they not optimize the textures? Switch version will be interesting to see size wise

 

[Knightime_X]

Pretty much every single one that has their game list set to private.

 

[ANDS]

Been available for pre-load for a minute now. Curious what the ". . .revealed today" refers to.

 

[sinnergy]

Series superior noodle compression ???

 

[ahtlas7]

My dsl line is cowering in the corner. No PC preload …

 

[ExcitableBoy]

Is ps5 preload up?

Series X and S are one file, you can put it on an expansion card and just move it between the machines.

[makaveli60]

With or without magic compression? I guess without

Additional content on PS5 :

Yep, that probably explains the size difference.

I'm more curious how big the PS4 & XBO versions are going to be. Probably 120+ GB.

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

I don't think one DLC quest would make that much of a difference.

Normally you'd expect the PS5 version install to be a bit smaller, with all the work Sony did to help with compression, etc. Might just be they didn't have time to optimize the PS5 day-one build to take advantage. Regardless, can't wait! Just need to see those reviews.

Living with greater than 1TB must suck?! I think you meant less than (< 1TB), but I get what you're saying, I upgraded to 2TB and I am already starting top out that drive...

Oh how I miss the luxuries of last gen with the ability to add much more memory to our consoles. Prices really need to drop and they really need to add more affordable options for us all

 

[SlimySnake]

What happened to oodle poodle textures?

 

[SteelCurtain 59]

Additional content on PS5 :

Haunted Hogsmeade Shop Quest which grants access to an additional dungeon, Shopkeeper's Cosmetic Set, and in-game Hogsmeade shop.

Sounds like less than 3GB worth of content

 

[Rayderism]

So much for all that superior compression blah-blah stuff on PS5.

 

[fart town usa]

Oh god, my aDSL internet is crying. Hope it's done downloading by the 7th, lol. Deluxe Edition preorders says it'll start downloading on the 5th.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

So much for all that superior compression blah-blah stuff on PS5.

Sony literally has a whole dungeon's worth of extra content and then some I think lol.

 

[Skifi28]

So much for all that superior compression blah-blah stuff on PS5.

There's tons of games on PS5 that take up less space, but let's focus on the one that doesn't (likely because of extra content). That'll show them!

 

[Unknown Soldier]

LOL no preload of an 85 GB game, thanks Steam!

Good thing I didn't even buy the stupid Deluxe edition, if I had paid for 72 hours early access and found out I couldn't preload it I would be not a happy dude. As it is, I'm already zenlike in my patience.

 

[ManaByte]

I thought the Series S version was under 50GB? I’ll go install it later and check.

 

[In Cold Blood]

Are we starting to see parity with install size between the PS5 and XSX?
For awhile there the PS5 had a decent size reduction in file size.

No one's waiting for reviews? Are most people fans or just buying it to trigger reddit/twitter?

No way this reviews well with the current gaming media. Anyone that reviews it positively will be labeled transphobic. (Obviously a few outliers won't care)

 

[Topher]

No one's waiting for reviews? Are most people fans or just buying it to trigger reddit/twitter?

Definitely waiting on reviews. Hoping for the best though.

 

[BadBurger]

80 gigglebits for PS5 huh? I may need to uninstall something.

 

[Saber]

No one's waiting for reviews? Are most people fans or just buying it to trigger reddit/twitter?

I am, even though I'm almost sure I will buy it. I'm gonna even watch gameplays when it launches. Really hope it fairs well and its a good game overall.
Problem is how the reviewers will handle their reviews without that stupid drama. This is what makes me skeptical.

I was able to get a PC preorder for 50 bucks, at that price why wouldn't I just preorder it. PC gaming chads always get the best deals.

Have you heard about this cool new thing for the last few years called "Pre-order culture"?

 

[zkorejo]

Apparently there are 5 modes on PS5.

40 fps fidelity with vrr for 120 hz monitor is confirmed according to a leak on Reddit.

Another option is fidelity Rtx.. which is 30 fps. Then there's Performance 60 and unlocked if I'm not mistaken.

I'm looking forward to how it performs on PC and if my pc can do better fps with Rtx. Otherwise ps5 is a surefire way to go.

Don’t matter you can’t discuss it over there which means nobody can call another user out for playing it because you can’t discus it!
