Fix your damn patching
It's an absolute travesti that each new patch essentially amounts to a full reinstall of the game, especially when the fixes are more often than not, not significant nor game changing.
To have to do a 40 GB download on top of usually having to delete games from my hard drive puts players at a tremendous inconvenience, even those who benefit from fast connections and already have them hooked on a ethernet cable. Even those have to endure an hour long patching process (this provided you don't use your console for anything else and do not tax its resources) for what are, most of the time, pretty minor fixes or the insertion of a new BS lootbox. People with less stable connections are bound to be even more penalized by this pretty awful coding.
So yeah, do take a cue from your competitors and do local fixes instead of hitting us with a full new install on every single damn change.

In fact i dont recall this ever happening.
I think what the OP means is the size of the game, not the size of the update seeing as they're saying they have to reinstall the game after every update.
