[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 14 points 4 days ago (3 children) What on Earth is with the system requirements for this game? It requires a gigabyte of space? Heroes of Might and Magic 3? How's that possible? Judging from the pictures it is not updated or remastered or anything. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] schipelblorp@sh.itjust.works 32 points 4 days ago (1 child) It came on a CD, which is max about 700MB; that could easily unpack to a gigabyte. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 4 days ago (1 child) I think I remember its demo being around a 20MB download (for sure under 100) so the full version was probably way less than a whole CD permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 9 points 4 days ago* (1 child) I'm seeing an 848 MB split rar archive in at least one torrent for "complete" edition. This is an 18 year old torrent too, that's not the remastered version which is more like 3 GB. PCGamingWiki does show 425 MB in the requirements, but that's likely without the expansions. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 days ago Maybe I am confusing it for II permalink fedilink source parent [–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 22 points 4 days ago It'll be 700MB of electron based emulation to run it. permalink fedilink source parent [–] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 0 points 4 days ago (1 child) what were you expecting? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago (1 child) The game to not be as large, I assume permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 1 point 3 days ago* I get that, but based on what? 1GB unpacked seems reasonable for a 1999 game that was likely distributed on CDs.
