Massive, but I know it will be of great quality. My SSD will be ready.
Extra languages included in the EU version by default, I'm guessing?
That's a hell of a lot of language data
Probably. Someone should come up with a neat way to avoid downloading all the languages one doesn't need. For example, for me English is enough; I don't care about French, German, etc. Wouldn't make a huge difference but ever 'little' bit helps.
Yes, audio files for all the conversations can be massive depending on the quality. And yes I do agree with the suggestion of allowing to either install or download only selected language (one of the Assassins Creed done that).
So it almost doubles the size of the complete edition of Horizon Zero Dawn (48GB). Wow. Bigger is better, I guess. It's not a big difference if you have a 100GB game on a 1TB SSD or a 6GB Nintendo game on the 64GB internal memory of the Switch OLED model.
Woah mama!
A mammoth game!
What if there are people in the USA who would like to use their native languages? On the other hand, I wouldn't use my language even if it was available. Would feel silly somehow.
Buy EU version and import. Or create EU PSN account and buy it over there then play on regular account.
Reminds me of a French housemate years ago he was teaching his girlfriend french and I asked since he was extremely fluent in english and had been literate in english for around six years at that time what language were his thoughts in he replied I think in english and I also dream in english, he then explained that when he first arrived in Australia he spoke english but thought and dreamed in french but after 12 months in Australia speaking nothing but english living on magnetic island at that time he suddenly realised that he thought and dreamed in english and told me that he once returned to Le man for a 3 months holiday and even when speaking and hearing french 24/7 he found himself converting it all to english in his mind.
