Popular Twitch streamer xQc is known for playing a variety of games while livestreaming, and one of his favorite titles to play competitively online is Valorant. However, he has noticed an issue with the Riot Games FPS. While livestreaming to a big Twitch audience, xQc was shocked to see just how much hard drive space Valorant is taking up on his gaming rig.
A Twitch clip of xQc reacting to Valorant's file size has gained traction based on his notably comical exclamation of just how large the download is as it nears a full terabyte. The popular Twitch streamer is looking through his gaming library on EA Origin in the video of this reaction, and he's trying to clear up some space in order to download The Sims 4: Cottage Living expansion. Currently being on a Sims kick, the Origin library also shows that xQc has recently downloaded the digital soundtrack to The Sims 4, The Sims 4: Kids Room Stuff, and The Sims 4: Dine Out, which each offer their own package of content.
The Twitch clip of streamer xQc reacting to the file size of Valorant begins with the popular livestreamer asking his community how Riot Games' FPS is such a large download. Yelling the question with a flabbergasted expression on his face, xQc proceeds to open his PC control panel after screaming, "what!" Upon accessing the control panel, xQc clicks on the Programs tab to view all the applications on his PC, which highlights several games that the popular livestreamer has played in recent weeks.
The games in xQc's Program list include Escape From Tarkov, League of Legends, and Valorant, though many more are likely left out as the Riot Games title appears near the top based on its size. Some other notable programs xQc has installed are mostly launchers like Battlestate Games Launcher, EA Origin, GOG Galaxy, Paradox Launcher, and The Epic Games Store. In addition, there is Discord and the many Elgato files that keep his stream running. Because these programs are organized by size, Valorant shows up at the top since it is perplexingly close to a full terabyte, with xQc's screen proving the download exceeds 847GB.
There appears to be a bug impacting xQc's 847GB Valorant file, as it is normally around a 20 GB download. Contrary to the unusually sizable Valorant, Riot Games MOBA League of Legends takes up less than one gigabyte according to the same Program list on xQc's computer, which highlights a sizable difference. With how many games xQc swaps between while livestreaming, it's likely that his PC is full of games, which points to xQc's rig having a massive hard drive considering that xQc's version of Valorant appears to be taking up a whopping terabyte of space.
Valorant is available now for PC.
