Damn. I was watching someone stream something with a long cutscene in it, and they went "How much of the game is this scene?!" and I went "Well it's live action probably at 1080p, it's about an hour long, compressed for digital distribution, so I'd spitball 3-5GB"

It was 4.1GB. I was basically dead on.

I've been doing video streaming magic too long.

@trysdyn now take a look at NieR Automata (they somehow forgot the compression part, repacks of the game are like half the size)
