Larian has finally confirmed that preloading won’t be available, apparently because of a limitation with Steam.

    Never? There’s that infamous quote about how people will never need more than 64KB of RAM that comes to mind. SSD prices are falling rapidly, and internet bandwidth is only increasing. I understand if you don’t have the means right this moment, but 100+ GB games are here and will only happen more often.

      I don’t have a problem with large games if I get the option of what I want to download. Most often these large sizes are because it forces you to get full 4K textures and multiple copies of the audio files for languages you don’t speak.

      I would bet half the size of this game is unnecessary for the average player. We really need the ability to download the core game and then these add-ons separately.
