And it is not at all uncommon.
There is a reason that, back in the day, there were a LOT of ways to compress game installs so that you could burn it to a CD-R and so forth. And this was incredibly prevalent on consoles up until the current generation when SSDs became default... except that a lot of games were still being developed for previous gen and older hardware PCs.
