Metro: Redux Is Just 17GB

Metro: Last Light was a hell of a looker. A beautiful game when it released last year, and now, with the upcoming Metro: Redux, both it and its immediate predecessor look even more gorgeous. They are stunning, and really show us the technical and artistic mastery of developer 4A Games.

Which is why it is so staggering that the games? They will just collectively take up 17GB of your hard drive. 17GB!

For reference, a game like Titanfall, which, with all due respect, looked like crap, was nearly 50GB.  Or The Last of Us Remastered, which is a remaster of a single last generation game, in excess of 40 GB. How 4A Games managed to get Metro Redux down to just 17 GB boggles the mind.

Personally, this makes it a much more appealing purchase than a game that I would probably have to wait for a good long while to finish downloading.
