Nier: Automata got a patch yesterday to add support for more languages to the game (Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese), but it accidentally bloated the game file size to 366GB on PC. That’s 1.5 copies of GTA 6!
A bug caused the entire game to be applied to every DLC pack included in the PC edition, ballooning the overall file size to Call of Duty-esque heights. Nier was previously around 50GB to download.
The game saw a wave of negative reviews come in on Steam following the patch, with players complaining that they were unable to play or, you know, download any other games.

I’ll recommend this game after it is fixed,” said another.
“I think the funniest part about the ‘slight’ issue with the new update for language support is the Steam page still lists a 50gb
