It's really inconceivable that Larian doesn't allow the download.
Some said Steam doesn't allow pre-download on early releases.

For a Studio the size of Larian, they could certainly beat their fists on Gabe dumb Newell's desk and demand it.
Just look how slow is this forum. Now imagine the number of people downloading 150gb worth of content!
Some here already stated that we WILL have to download 150gb instead of 80gb.


Even if the game is being release early, I can only imagine how pissed off people will be when they start downloading and the speed does not even reach 3mb/s.
The game can be a 10/10, but be sure it will be 1/10 in the first days when people cannot even play the game because of overloaded servers.


I'm really pushing this forward, because I can already see this coming. And if this comes to fruition... My god, how stupid were the people involved in this. It's not like they never had anyone telling them about this.
