There’s more than just an installer on Fallout 4 physical release for PC

But you will have to download some data, courtesy of piracy.

I don't see how it will stop piracy

Any chance that we can find out how big the download would be prior to release? I need more information before i pre-order this game. if it is more than 15gb... I doubt i will be able to download it.

...It's in the article.

Steam reports 30GB exactly, so it’s hardly small.

You might get away with ~80% of that with compression, so it'd be 24Gb if you're lucky, but I doubt it'd ever be less than that.

For piracy reasons? yeah.... i don't think so, stopping pirating is not that easy.
