    Looks like it's time to RAID 0 my 1TB SSD with another 1TB SSD. :D

    It takes one week for me to download 65gb. I'm in 2004. And it consumes 1/3 of my SSD, so it has to be WAY MUCH BETTER than Witcher 3, and it won't be.

    Why is the HDD size even getting a mention, wolf:TNO was like 55gb.

    What, running out of room for all your porn and non social activities. Facebook friends dont take up HDD space.

    I didn't buy a SSD to not use it. Especially in a GTA game.

    Oh, tell me about! The amount of times i've bought an SSD, installed it, loaded up windows and then been absolutely surprised and astounded by its limited storage capacity:rolleyes:

    If only they'd mention the size of the SSD on the box this could all be avoided. Now, I'll have to use a marginally, and it is marginally, slower HDD.

    Choice, if only we had some.

    People who complain about not having a large enough SSD have only themselves to blame. I bet those same people whinge about about plate manufactures and the size of plates, when they dont have enough room to fit their larger than recommended serving size onto said plate.

    I think you don't know how to use your sdd. And that's right, I can't blame overpriced things here in Brazil, because you know everything about Brazil and the overpriced things should be overpriced.

    edit: judging by yours specs you have no idea what is to be a technology consumer in Brazil. So go talk about peaches and roses.

    I only have 5mbs DSL Connection. Here in our country Internet is very expensive. But I don't have problem if I will download this. I leave my Computer On 24/7..:D

    About the size of the Game..Can't Believe you guys put your games on your SSD. All my games are on my 4TB HDD being speed up by RAM Cache and have no Problem in loading times. The only game I have on my ssd is Diablo 3 and NBA 2K15.

    Peaches and roses can be pricey also, romantic, but not as filling as a proper meal. Much like SSD vs HDD. SSDs are nice in theory, but not as cost effective when needing to store large amounts of data, even the speed increase of SSDs doesn't off set the cost and lack of space of SSDs (yet) when compared to HDD.

    SSDs are more expensive than a standard HDD. so your cost argument is moot. Dont complain about pricey hardware while complaining about SSDs.

    When it comes to ssds, those who can only afford small SSDs still have more money than sense.

    Neat! Make sure said mind has a large enough storage capacity to hold everything you require.

    Since we just use ~10% of our brain that's A LOT of storage space.

    I'll watch a movie while I download it :) , but seriously pre-load will probably be on for a week or so prior to release on Steam with it being that size.
