Baldur's Gate 3 is a 122GB download and you can't preload any of it (www.pcgamer.com)

Larian has finally confirmed that preloading won't be available, apparently because of a limitation with Steam.

I don't have a problem with large games if I get the option of what I want to download. Most often these large sizes are because it forces you to get full 4K textures and multiple copies of the audio files for languages you don't speak.

I would bet half the size of this game is unnecessary for the average player. We really need the ability to download the core game and then these add-ons separately.
