Just downloaded all 26 parts and 102 GB of the latest patch (1st Dec 2023) to BG3, and when I run the installer it tells me there's not enough room to update the game. There's 1.2 TB free on the disk, the installer wants 1574969 MB, or 1.57 TB.
The game it's patching is 120 GB, it's asking for more than ten times that to patch it. I'm going to have to download the game *again* and reinstall it from scratch. GoG's patch 5 installer is utterly hopeless. It's only a couple of GB smaller than downloading a full install, and it needs ten times as much disk space to run.
Their patcher doesn't seem to be able to scale well to large games.
