What size will it be?
I know of the 43.5GB patch. But there's going to be another one on launch day.
I think PC version patch is different in size, especially because consoles had troubles and were the cause of the last delay. But we'll see.
This is a good question. With the Day 0 patch the download size is just over 100GB already. I live in the middle of nowhere and my internet connection shows it. I won't be able to play until the day after launch if the Day 1 patch is anything like the Day 0 patch.

I might skip the Day 1 patch on release if possible and download the patch whenever I go to bed.

I only have 96.6GB left on my ssd so it would be handy to know if I have to make room.

You should anyway.

SSDs loose performance when full and even though they have reserved space to avoid degradation problems, is a bad idea to have them full.

Don't freak out either, but... if you can make some room in your SSD, I would encourage you to do so. :)

If you are reffering to the PS4 preload, that's because it includes all languages by default. GOG only installs english by default + the language you chose.

With just english the game is 59GB on GOG, when you change the language it starts a download of 4.5GB. The game has audio for english + 10 other languages, so 59GB + 4.5GB*10 = 104GB that's whay PS4 is over 100GB
I hope there is an option to preload the patch if it is as voluminous as the rumours imply, I feel for people with poor internet speed if it isn't the case.

Thanks so much for this answer!!! I saw around the place about a massive patch that was needing downloading and wondering why my PC pre-load was only 59gb so now I know, much appreciated :)

sadly that would be most of the world....the fastest average internet speed in the entire world is in SoKo and it's still only 26mb/s 22-24 in most of the rest of the 1st world....so yea...the majority of people will probably experience a looong wait...

me included lol...i live in a rural area and our internet service is monopolized 46 bucks for 25mb/s....it goes up drastically all the way to 100 (can get faster but have to call them and get a custom deal)....it's kind of depressing, but at the same time glad i live where i do, wouldn't trade it for the world.
