With game size becoming very huge, I sometimes hope that digital storefronts or devs would give us an option to download the game / assets depending on the configuration that we want to play under.
I still don’t own a 4K monitor and have a relatively slow download speed, it’d be great if customers could choose a 1080p option to save time and space.
I remember vaguely about smart download system, announced during Xbox’s stage show, a couple of years ago, but I can’t remember whether it’s for deciding between Xbox Series S and X, or it’s for something else.
Diablo 4 allows that. Let’s you choose to get the 4K Textures or not and which languages for Voiceover / Cutscenes. The textures alone decide if you game is 40 or 80 GB.
There are some games that split high-res assets into separate free DLC. I don’t know how common it is, but I’ve definitely seen it on Steam. For example, Shadow of War does this with high-res textures and 4k cinematics.

Iirc, its also the case for skyrim on steam (though not sure which edition). So its not something new fot Bethesda.
Yes it does. The download size for xss will be smaller than xsx.
