omega64: All files are required to install, Galaxy just downloads the game files instead of the installer.
Both are probably around the same size.
SirPrimalform: Not necessarily. The installers are compressed, whereas Galaxy currently downloads the game as installed, completely uncompressed. Best bet is probably to use Galaxy to download the 'backup' (installer) if bandwidth is an issue.SirPrimalform: Not true, see above.SirPrimalform: That's probably the size of the installation, and thus the size of the download if you install through Galaxy. Galaxy doesn't download the files compressed so it downloads the installation at its full size. The installers are obviously compressed, hence the size you're talking about. Both are probably around the same size.
Why? xD
