| Feature | Standard Compressed (e.g., Old RG) | “Up Better” Compressed (e.g., FitGirl v1.03) | |--------|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------| | File Size | 1.9 GB | 2.8 GB | | DLCs Included | No Lost Archive | Yes, all DLCs | | Cutscene Quality | Low bitrate, blurry | Original 720p/1080p | | Audio Languages | English only | Multilingual (selective) | | Patch Level | 1.00 (buggy, no bomb-crafting fixes) | 1.03 (final patch) | | Crack Stability | May crash on Sequence 6 | 100% stable, no savegame corruption | | Multiplayer Fix | Not applicable (SP only) | Single-player focused, multiplayer removed (saves space) |
