How 2 reduce size of Mafia III - Definitive Edition (free 14+ GB disk space)

Unfortunately Mafia III - Definitive Edition will install ALL language files (English, French, German, Italian & Spanish)

Here is how u can reduce the game size of the game:

1.
Open the game folder

2.
Locate the language files:
The files r stored in: .../steam/steamapps/Mafia III/edit/audio/packages

Each language files-folder is about 3,5 GB.

3.
Delete the files & free 14+ GB of disk space.
(Example: I only need the German language files, so I only keep the German folder.)

IMPORTANT:
U need 2 delete the files again if the game was updated.

Make sure 2 check my other guides:

Save even more disk space in:
DEATHLOOP, Days Gone, Horizon - Zero Dawn, Just Cause 4, MAFIA - Definitive Edition, Dead Rising 4.

its sad because i only found out that i can do this was when i got a game off the internet and it asked if i wanted the languages also.
then i was like wait they're not needed, wow i could have freed much space on many games.

I had no idea the game does that... Damn. I had a hassle with Witcher 3, because I use Steam in English, but play in Polish, and by default the game downloaded only English voices. So I had to set it to Polish manually. I thought all games download the "default" language. What the hell were they thinking...

Thanks dude! (Definitive Edition: ~15-16GB of useless audio files)
