This article shows a screenshot of some good examples for games that use way too much save space I know games are getting larger due to texture sizes other improvements in fidelity, but that shouldn't have any effect on save file data, right?Įdit And of course, as I talk about this, Kotaku runs an article almost on this exact topic. What is making save files get so large, anyway? Replay data I can understand, but gameplay progress? Back on the PS2, we were able to save a bunch of progress on an 8MB memory card. Obviously, with storage media getting cheaper and cheaper, it's easy to disregard how big something like a save file can be, but it's getting wasteful. I feel developers are getting sloppy with their data management. Each replay is ~10-15MB.įrankly, I think it's getting insane. Mortal Kombat X assumes that you want to keep a bunch of replays, with no option of turning it off. I think GTA5 alone takes up over 100MB or storage. However, lately it seems not uncommon for games to constantly take up over 10MB or more, just for a save file. Back in the early 2000's and earlier, 1GB of storage for save-data was a godly amount. So the PS4 comes with a 500GB hard drive, and PS+ gives you some space for online storage. r/CoOpGaming - A community for co-op gaming r/nintendo - Nintendo-specific subreddit for general Nintendo news and discussion R/shouldibuythisgame - Find out what's worth getting.
