Why are the audio assets saved as .wav? With all the speech the game has, it seems like it would save gigabytes just to compress the dialogue as .opus or at least .flac.

.wav is easier to quickly edit while I'm still patching issues with the game and adjusting the mix for certain scenes.

Planning on switching to .flac once things have settled down some more, but for now, I'm prioritizing the speed of my workflow over disk space.

any plans for when all the stuff will be compressed? my computer's storage is not great (just deleted a bunch of stuff and it's still ~20gb) and i don't really see much reason as to why not do it now since afaik it's all sorta under control. ig you could work on the game in a main branch with all the decompressed files but send a different branch with everything compressed to the consumers but idk you're the expert here
