Just got my Series X a few hours ago and thought I would see if we could gather some feedback on something. I'll start with Assassins Creed Valhalla, which I remember reading had a day one update of about 2.6GB and I thought that seemed pretty good and I would be into my game pretty quick. But as soon as I put in the game disc, I get hit with a whopping 46GB update instead. The same is true for Watch Dogs Legion.
Now this might not be an issue for a lot of people, but to people with slow internet like myself it makes a big difference to how quickly we can start playing. And can affect my decision to even buy a physical copy in the first place.
Now I don't know whether this is true for all games, which is why I am asking for feedback from other Series X owners. But if it is true, that essentially means that physical Series X games with Smart Delivery don't exist as hard copies, as you have to download them either way.
So if other can provide feedback as to whether this happens with other games that would be much appreciated.
