How are we ever going to get by with all of these hours minutes of lost time?
What is the average time to "install" games from discs?

Dragon's Dogma 2 took a grand total of 1 minute and 48 seconds. Brand new install of course.

I cannot test Forza Motorsport as I do not own it, but safe to say that the OP might be exaggerating a tad. The Ryzen 7700x is certainly slower compared to my 13900k, but none of the shader compilations took advantage of that many cores.

I just did Dragons Dogma 2 which i've not played since launch.

1min 48 seconds. On an I9-13950hx mobile chip.

Forza under a minute, same set up.

I don't have the last of us installed to check.

Like i said you're doing something wrong or your system is borked.
Either we are both lying or the OP is doing something wrong, that or retardation has kicked in.

I couldn't say. I've been almost entirely digital on consoles this gen. I don't remember. "Hours" I'm sure lol


"I just got my physical copy of GT7 and noticed it takes a very long time to install. My PS5 reports something up to 5 hours and 2 hours already have past."

"Mine went from 9 hours to 13, and now it's saying 99+ hours for a disc install of GT7 not connected to internet. I'm pretty sure my old 60gb iPod classic would fill up faster than that back in 2008. WTF is going on?

Edit:

I tried turning off the internet and restarting the PS5, but nothing changed until I deleted what was loaded so far, turned off the internet in my house, and then restarted the PS5 and the install. Now it says 68 minutes for the install. This is my third PS5 game and honestly I wish I hadn't spent $500 on this BS. I'm really hoping the gameplay on GT7 is worth it."

"Same here took me 6 hours on disk"

Haven’t seen that yet but I kinda mostly play old games TBH. Starfield and I think Days Gone are the 2 games I have that pre-compile shaders and they both take seemingly less than a minute on my laptop (it’s brand new, 2nd best Intel mobile CPU and a 4080M.)

It is a little sus you are quoting info about TLOU at launch when it’s been patched to be much better though lol

Guessing my 5600X is why my compilation took longer than you or clarky clarky . Either that or you are both......<checks notes>....."Master liars".

Speaking of loading screens I need to see if I can find the loading times for Primal Rage on the Jaguar CD. I swear to god it was like five minutes.

Edit: a quick google search says about a full minute to load the game. Holy shit that's like hours.

Racing Destruction Set, on C64, on cassette tape.

If you lived through that you can handle shaders compiling for a few minutes.

Quality game though, was almost worth the half hour wait to load the track only to find you'd set the gravity wrong lol.

I was fully on PC during those years. Won an IBM PCjr at a store drawing in the early 80s. All my friends had C64 though.
