    What size was the download? I got mine in two downloads for a total of 6.1G. I've seen others say they got theirs in a single 6.1G download. My guess it all depends upon timing at the server as to whether the launcher receives it as one or two.

    The launcher streams all available content that is available at the start of the process. They're pretty clever about their batching. If you watch the text of the download, you'll see patch vs ex1 vs ex2 in the download descriptions. For people who started the update early, there may be more content available now. My download was 6.1GB on PC, started about 5 minutes ago.

    well HW was 5 leveling dungeons, 1 MSQ dungeon, and 2 tome dungeons. (3 trials)
    so far we're short 1 leveling dungeon, as there will only be 4 leveling dungeons, and we know we get 2 tome dungeons. we dont know if we get a MSQ final dungeon. (and we only know of 2 trials.)
    We get 1 main city and the new revenants toll.
    we get 6 zones, just like HW.

    So for the file size to be so different compared to HW, maybe the amount of voice acting is lowered, and there's a lot of reused assets maybe.
    (such as oriental styled building being reused often enough to save space.)
    Unless just 1 dungeon makes that much of a difference.

    To anyone who has pre ordered sb but is not getting the full patch: have you made sure to go and get early access attached to your account? You should have info on how to do that in an e-mail or on your order receipt. The actual codes for sb aren't out yet, so having early access is likely what is determining who gets what patches.

    Post-patch it should be 29GB with HW and SB on PC.



    (2014 was the last time I reinstalled Windows, so lots of things have that date)

    I believe the download is highly compressed. My FF14 file is now 69gb, up from 46gb, thats more than the patch size for sure.

    I got mine in MB patch sizes I and I"m on ps4 and got early access. I wonder why some of you got them in GB sizes.
