It's not the size that matters. It's what the game does with it.

That is usually something said by those with little games ...

That it demands 150GB doesn’t meant it will be that big (though it probably will!). Even so, it’s not necessarily something to be proud of. Still, with all the VO and clearly higher visual quality then D:OS2 it is not surprising.

Glad I bought a new SSD. We are entering into the age of 100 GB (which I assume is closer to what this game will actually be) as a standard install size for AAA games.

I wonder why a game like this would need 150 gb space. For example, TW 3 is a huge game and it still doesn’t take 90 gb.

I'm no expert here, but installing a game sometimes takes twice as much space as the game requires once it's installed.

Seems about right, my BG3 folder (no mods or anything) via Steam is 82.5 GB. Doom Eternal is 55.7 GB.

That's the price you pay for games that are supposed to look nice and sharp on 4K+ resolutions. The assets/textures/cinematics take lots of space. Witcher 3 just does not have such large assets.
