        Storage is getting cheaper every day and the models are getting smaller with the same amount of data.

          Yeah that’s not a lot. I mean… the average consumer probably has 10GB free on their boot volume.

          It is a lot to download. If we’re talking about ordinary consumers. Not unheard of though - some games on Steam are 50GB+

          So okay, storage is not prohibitive.
