85GB is actually shockingly huge for Counter-Strike considering CS:GO was like 16GB. For comparison, Doom Eternal is 80GB, Cyberpunk is 70, and Elden Ring and Armored Core VI are both 60.

The sound card's just recommended though so whatever.

Another thing that makes it a bad decision/situation is that CS is one of those games that players want to keep installed. It's not a single player story where you finish it, then you free that space back up for the next game. And it's also not a MS Flight Sim or The Sims where it's the only game you play every day. CS you come back to regularly, but never value that strongly. It should load quick and be free to keep installed.
