It’s more likely that the devs are not being given the time or resources to do this kind of thing properly. Their bosses are too concerned with what will save money and generate shareholder value.

Fair point. I guess it would be more accurate to say “development studios” (you know, the organisation… including the bloody boss) instead of “game devs”.

This implies fitgirl is doing it properly. Which it’s trade off faster download longer install times or vice versa.

Decompression during install is generally less of a bottleneck than network bandwidth, so fitgirl is doing it properly.
