Baldur's Gate 3 has a download size of 97.4 GB and an install size of 121.47 GB.
Comparing to Terraria is stupid, Terraria doesn't have the same quantity of graphical and audio assets.
It is between games with similar assets.
Terraria doesn't have GBs of 3d rendering, voice acting, etc., it's a poor comparison.
Pretty sure that is the point. Both are current gen AAA games with similar graphical fidelity. You trying to compare Terraria is like trying to compare 140p video with 4k, we're comparing 4k with 4k.
