Red Dead Redemption 2 PC System Requirements (required HDD Space: 150 GB)
Rockstar Games has revealed, via its Game Launcher, the official PC system requirements for Red Dead Redemption 2. Rockstar recommends using an Intel Core i7-4770K or an AMD Ryzen 5 1500X with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or an AMD Radeon RX 480.
Red Dead Redemption 2 will have lower RAM requirements. Rockstar recommends having 12GB of RAM. Lastly, the game will require 150 GB of free hard-disk space, which is a trend we just discussed on the COD news item. The Wild West is no small matter.
A few days after the announcement of Red Dead Redemption 2 for Windows PC, the development studio Rockstar Games has launched the presale and announced the system requirements. The current version (1.13) for the Playstation 4 is around 109 GB in size. Rockstar Games had announced at the first presentation of the PC version that there should be technical improvements, but no further details. The larger space requirement on PCs could be due to finer-resolution textures - but actually the program would need much more memory.
Beginning October 23, players can pre-order at the Epic Games Store, Humble Store, and a host of other portals - but, as far as we know, not on Steam.

High res textures also benefit lower resolutions. Also, 90GB wouldn't make up only textures. The game by itself is already very large.
And honestly, if you need to bargain for a couple dozen gigabytes in a game install, maybe you should just be buying more storage.
Yeah... there's some truth to that. Just buy more storage is true, then again, download this game and many people would wish it was 65GB instead of 110. Which btw is not just a couple more but double the size. Not everybody has 1Gbps ethernet
Hence I was wondering what a console player does... having 3 or 4 games running on a console defeats it's purpose to be "just playing" compared to a PC, at least imho.
If you haven't gotten enough space you need to manage your installations, download the game etc. etc. isn't that just like on a PC these days? Anybody using consoles to confirm or crush my idea of this?

Its not a HDD space but SSD space. Many have no that much to spare.
I just had no idea that it was getting released on PC finally. I don't give a rat's ass about HD space.

PC reviewers who review console ports that have lower res textures: "The textures are blurry. This isn't a proper PC port."
PC reviewers who review console ports that have proper high res textures: "This is a joke, this game needs 150GB, wtf unacceptable."
