Larian Studios Forums Divinity II The Dragon Knight Saga / Flames of Vengeance (English) Divinity II - The Dragon Knight Saga Divinity 2 is bigger than DKS??? How can this be??

I read it on direct2drive:

Divinity 2: Ego Draconis 8.06 GB
Divinity 2: The Dragon Knight Saga 5.69 GB

Dragon Knight Saga contains Flames of Vengeance as well, and still it is smaller than Div2 by 2 GB????

Assuming there isn't just a typo, more efficient video compression may have been used in DKS, or better optimization / compression used overall. Better 3D models may have meant they needed fewer textures, or something...

Nope, not typo, checked on other sites too. If theres lots of new content, how can it be smaller with 2 GBs?

I didn't do the compare but I would guess that the direct2drive version contained more languages as well as patch data for ED. Additionally, DKS indeed uses more efficient compression.
