    1.3 GB is pretty substantial but that would mean that there is much more new stuff than usual.

    Yes. I don’t understand why this is so big?

    Bug fixes. New content. AQ updates.
    Yes. But that happens every month. And this update is too big. I am suspicious that we are downloading the whole game all over again instead of only the update. If one of the mods can confirm that this is the genuine size of the update it will very helpful for us.
    It's not the whole game again. Also when launching the game after updating there was no additional "downloading" during the loading screen like previous months.

    There's a lot of stuff to do with AQ that's being changed, new menus and systems. It's extremely reasonable that this update is larger.

    I am not saying it's not possible but it looks peculiar.
    Nothing peculiar about it. The whole game is still less than 2gb after the update.

    Hey everybody, this is correct.

    You'll notice that unlike our previous releases, once you have downloaded the new update, there is no additional Data downloaded afterwards. This is a test for us, but if this resolves some issues that have occurred in the past, you can expect this to be the norm going forward.

    Thanks for clearing this up miike.

    I had to remove spotify ;(

    Why didn't you just undownload some playlists? You can keep spotify just a ton of data is from downloaded playlists.

    1.2gb update per month? Lmao, I'd rather not.
    Well would you rather have a 1.2 gb update with no bugs or a slightly shorter download time riddled with bugs. Obviously we don't know if it will help but they are just trying it out and it could potentially decrease the amount of bugs.
