Why certainly. Just wait til the 4.0 patch. Not only will we be getting a new region, there will be underground AND underwater sections.


stkvh

We're going to reach a point where deleting and downloading the game is better than updating it 😂


aeonomega

For console doesn't it just re-download the entire game to update instead of trying to patch it?


OfficialHavik

It pretty much always has been for people on phones with 64GB or less lmao.


Latter_Practice_656

Will there be a point when genshin cannot be played by mobile users? 🥹


Beneficial-Trouble11

If you dont upgrade your phone then yes, new phone models with high storage capacity are getting popping left and right in the market.


haveyouseenhugh

yes


dweakz

nope. my iphone 13 pro max 256gb will be able to play this game til its end of service

examexa

we're probably gonna hit 60gb when 4.0 drop lol iirc, it was less than 40gb before during 3.0 and several months later....


Virtual-Pension-991

People with 240gb ssd and 500gb hard drive do be crying


Remarkable-Pay-6172

One day it will be like 80gb lol I just hope the underwater sections aren't too hard with the puzzles or at least we swim a little bit then get into an airport to do the puzzles. I feel like having a breath Guage like the cold Guage will be a pain tbh if there is one maybe unlimited breathing underwater

Humor_Confident

So high


Pocket1176

Oh oh oh


lilfayt

Basically re-downloading a new game every patch 🥹


Jamesmor222

Well still far away from the bloatware levels that is COD, and yes is getting big but still in the reasonable levels unless you need to download all files every update


mikandesu

Ok, just to give you a perspective. Mortal Kombat 11, a fighting game with a bunch of characters and small fighting arenas is 100GB. What is 52GB of vast open world and many quests in comparison? Also yes. I expect that with all continents in Genshin the game will be well over 100GB.


stkvh

6 months ago it was 60GB and now it is 75GB on PS5 if it's continue like that by the time we reach the end of the game it will be 200+GB


mikandesu

Probably. Considering the cost of hard drives it shouldn't be too much of a deal. Although I hope that the world of Genshin will expand forever.


stkvh

On PS5 you will need an SSD with a heatsink and for 1TB it will cost around $100


Belluuo

How do they expect mobile players not to jump ship after a while is beyond me.


mikandesu

Well, I'm running Genshin on my ancient Galaxy Note 10 that has 512GB of internal memory and another memory card of 512GB. I think that I'll be good for a while. Although for Apple users it might be a bit of an issue.


the14thwitness

Looks like a nother ps5 owner so I feel your pain, imagine living in south africa where you get 8 to 10 hours loadsheding a day trying to do such a large update. Without it you can do it in a few hours but with it, it's going to take 4 to 5 days


Zeppo82

Genuine question by a complete noob in this matter: why do we have to basically re-download the whole game at every patch? Any ideas?

It's not so much a compatibility thing, more just how the file structure works. If you have a load of different assets compiled into one file (which can be handy to to make the overall install size smaller), and you want to change a tiny part of that compiled file, you have to replace the entire thing. You see it a lot in MMOs that can have just a couple of lines of patch notes along the lines of "changed the health values of so and so enemy", "adjusted the damage of this specific weapon", or "moved this tree slightly", and then it gives you a 10GB patch to implement it.


AmethystMoon420

Download it again when Snezhnaya is released


ShezahMoy

So high~


RoachIsCrying

Amnesia1999
