From Steam’s self-published stats.

Baldur’s Gate 3 could not be preloaded and weighed in at 125 gigabytes on disk, so when the game left Early Access at 11am US Eastern yesterday, Steam’s bandwidth utilization shot up 8x over a span of 30 minutes. I know personally, I saw my download hit over 600 Mbps across a 1 Gbps fiber connection.

Kudos to the system engineers at Valve. It is mind-boggling that they have built infrastructure that robust.

Is the game worth it

Very much worth it. IMO Larian managed to outdone Original Sin 2 in regards of the RP aspect. As for the mechanics, I still prefer the Pathfinder CRPG games because it’s much more expansive system and one of the best TTRPG system implementation in a video game.

If you are into old-school story-driven turn-based RPGs you will thoroughly enjoy yourself. If you want something fast paced this game is not for you.
