MODERATORS
Yeahhh, that's a bullshit excuse. Just look at one of their direct competitors, Warframe. DigitalExtremes optimizes and works to trim their game as much as possible, every single update, and they've managed to keep their install size very reasonable without sacrificing any of their content.
The problem is that Bungie was never doing the constant engine optimization necessary to run a live service game. Most game install sizes have been weaponized, but in the sense that AAA game developers have no problem wasting space and resources. Bungie is absolutely part of that problem. I wouldn't even be surprised if this has always been the case at the company, but their previous focus on shipping complete games just hid their culture of inefficiency.
