Baldur's Gate 3 is currently taking up all the storage space I would give to Bethesda's sci-fi RPG.

There is most definitely room for improvement. Small example: a lot of games' downloads nowadays contain all the voicelines in every language in high quality audio files. Pretty much nobody will ever play a game in multiple different languages.

Another one: games come with 4k-textures now. Only a small fraction of players actually use a 4k display. Those textures eat up a lot of space and most players dont get anything out of them.

Just so we're clear, BG3 has only one language that is voiced: English. Every other language is in subtitles.

Just to cladify, most Digital Stores will only download the language Pack of your system. That's why when you change the game's language on Steam it needs to download a patch. It is download the language you selected and deleting the previous one.
