Putting something on your hard drive temporarily does not use it up? You don’t lose anything. Nothing is wasted.

On my high performance SSD for games and other data that requires it. If I pay for 1 or 2 TB of high performance storage, I want to use that extra space for other things. Not to mention the fact that I don't want my storage to fill up too much because they affects general performance on the drive. Also, more data that is written and rewritten with game updates is more, unnecessary wear on the drive.

insufferable

yes, being a contrarian and acting like games using more storage space does not results in higher costs on the user is insufferable.

If a user only installs 10 games the required storage space would go from 1.5TB to only 250GB.

Currently a 250GB SSD costs 300$, 2TB is +1300$....

So uninstall some games, you’re not playing 10 at once. Plus, they fixed the issue and you’re still mad.

yeah just let me delete those +100GB game that most in the world will take days to redownload not to mention the times you are offline just because it makes you feel better about your mega corp bootlicking.
