old + live service + full of crossover bullshit = thousands upon thousands of texture and audio files, the heap of shit doesn't just grow, it accelerates each year as the devs settle in and churn out content faster and crossovers become more common, and "fuck it, storage is denser and cheaper than when we launched" becomes an increasingly comfortable excuse to not compress everything

Especially when it’s someone else paying for that storage. It’s like all of the video ads on the internet using up everyone’s mobile data.
