Hi TalC2,
The Adventure Shop is zipping all the files, but compared to BigFish Games we provide all games with ALL files, the exact same version as the boxed version.
BigFish is not using a better compression system, they simply ask for different versions.
BigFish is under constraint of releasing a game (especially large files) at the smallest possible and they ask developers to remove assets from the game to keep it low (hi-res textures, hi res videos, audios, etc...). Usually, audios and hi-res files are removed.
The version of Dracula available on BFG is similar to the one on TAS. I said similar as they requested Frogwares (dev team) to remove some assets, audios and change some videos. Even some sequences have been cut off the game.
A Vampyre Story is effectively 4,3 GB, it is the same size as retail version.
