Those extra assets are also one of the reasons why some games take like 500Gb of ~~memory~~ storage to install.
Yep, art and asset takes up the most space. It also has the most space reserved for data transfer in disc readers. Its definitely the reason the new CoDs are so huge, along with their techniques of massive redundancy (if that ol' article about the way they load maps is true).
500gb of 'memory'? Get off the internet grandpa.
